Sometime it takes a second to really think about the words we use and the things we see. We just blow over common thoughts that are in front of our face for many reasons. -> Because we're busy -> Because we're just used to them. -> Because we have a certain way of doing things. Whatever the reason is. For example, did you notice the mistake in my first sentence? Maybe, maybe not. Many times, a business owner wants to scale, they are ready to scale, but they feel it may not be the right time. Maybe they don't see an answer that's already right in front of their face. As the story told by Earl Nightingale, we could be sitting on an acre of diamonds in our network. It just might take a second to pause and see the answer that's right in front of your face. - Was this message cryptic? I don't think so. Would I like you to go to my profile and check out funding options to scale your business or consolidate outstanding debt and lower your interest rate? Yes, I would. Not only that, but if you think this is the thing you need to take your business to the next level either through creating more ads, expanding locations, or saving money through debt consolidation, it might be the responsible thing to do. - HOWEVER If you don't have a solid plan for how you would use this capital you would borrow... DON'T. That was the PSA part. Continue with your day.

Is this really a superpower that leads to success? If you're an entrepreneur, you probably know about our superpower as humans. Maybe you don't use it to its fullest potential, but at least you've started your business using it. Kids are born with this superpower and they know how to use it and strengthen it. HOWEVER... Schools and society have a certain way of diminishing the light of this superpower so that we end up conforming with whatever is said to be a standard. NEW VIDEO for PARENTS: I love these animated shorts. There is so much to learn and apply for us as parents. In this video, we take a look at a secret superpower that kids have and school usually dims this superpower over time so that we forget that we actually have it. Any guess on what it is?

Feeling overwhelmed can be so defeating. There are 100,000,000,039 things to get done and there is only one of me. I have responsibilities at home and I'm trying to grow a business. A little trick I've used to regulate my emotional overload is simply writing down how I feel. It's like therapy. I've written as me writing to the universe, the universe writing to me, as me writing to myself... there are no rules. Above all, this gives us some power back. It takes control from the overwhelm feeling and shows it for what it is... An illusion. That has freed up a lot of bandwidth for me to show up more empowered for my family and in the business. If you need a little support, allow help to come to you. Assess what the next step is for you in your path. Take one step forward. 🚶♂️➡️

If you're in the cannabis industry or have a brilliant business idea around cannabis, what is your idea? What are you looking for? The intention for this is for people in the industry to connect with people who can help with what they need.

The pen is mightier. Want to raise the value of your brand, raise the level of your communication. Want to lower the value of your brand, lower the level of your communication. Words are powerful. In the history of the US, hemp went from a billion-dollar crop at the end of the 19th century to a demonized substance in the early 20th century. What happened? The use of words to persuade and manipulate people's thinking. The affects of these words are still present today. But the good news is things are turning around. The message is changing. People are seeing the benefits of this plant for industrial use, medical use, and recreational use. It's turning into the billion dollar crop once again. There are many companies and industries that are profiting and benefiting from using their creativity and leveraging this magical plant. If you are growing an idea into a business and need funding to start or grow your business, let's talk. #CannabisBusiness #Copywriting #Marketing

If you ever feel blocked out and separated from your teen this video will help you create a connection in 24 minutes. There's a stupid simple and obvious action (once you become aware of it) that you can use to begin building bridges immediately. This trick works wonders to mend bridges in relationships whether it's a partner, co-worker, parent, sibling, or any other kind of relationship. I created this video lesson where I took a lesson from an animated short called Snack Attack. It presents a basic situation where two people from two generations have a misunderstanding, and seeking first to understand could have prevented the misunderstanding completely. One of the reasons that I feel so strongly about helping cannabis companies get funding to grow their business is because of the ways that cannabis has helped me very much as a parent... especially in the early years. It has helped me: -> be more patient -> be more objective when faced with challenges -> be more creative with ideas -> be more open-minded with my partner -> create fun lessons as a teacher -> create content for my business Of course there is a balance to have, but any way I can help cannabis businesses grow, whether it be through funding or connecting companies together, I'm happy to help. In the comments, I'll share a lesson I recently created for parents using the animated short. This shows the one simple trick that you can start using TODAY to build bridges with your teen. I created
