Ant Pillars & Vegan Food

Am I going through work frustration, motivation, or a combination of something else altogether?

I woke up the other day from a dream about ants 🐜.

I don’t like bugs.

I know that they all have a purpose on our beautiful planet, BUT I don’t like bugs.

Truth be told, I don’t like to have dreams either.

8 Reasons

You can imagine my annoyance in my dream.

This dream was after battling with insomnia until 4:30ish this morning.

I decided to look up what it means when you dream about ants.

Ants symbolize “hard work” and “perseverance.” To dream about them supposes that there is a work annoyance or motivation that a person is experiencing.

As I thought about the meaning and what I have been going through the past several months, this dream took on a new meaning for me.

When I dream it always has a deeper meaning. I decided to dive deeper into the message of the ants.

As I am closing in on my next birthday milestone, I often ask myself “What do you want, Desiree?”

I asked myself “Am I going through work frustration, motivation, or a combination of something else altogether? "

There are so many exciting things that are happening in my professional career and in my business.

I have dabbled as an entrepreneur since I was 18 years old.

It wasn’t until I turned 40 and a major life crises' entered my life that I decided to really pursue it passionately.

Nothing in my path of business ownership except time, growth and change could prepare me for the opportunities I now have.

What I realized is that I have been experiencing a major transition in clarity of purpose and aligning the work I do.

I found that I’m not alone. Many GenX feel the same way.

As I think back to my internal fire, always wanting to be something more for my life, I wonder what I’d do if I experienced what the graduating Class of 2022 of Clark Atlanta University received at their commencement.

I recently learned about what Pinky Cole, Founder of SluttyVegan ATL gifted the 2022 graduating class of Clark-Atlanta University with their own LLC as a graduation gift.

Each young adult is now a business owner. That excites me.

These young people will be able to use their business IF THEY CHOOSE to build a legacy. Starting now.

I believe many will.

As I was scrolling thru Facebook™️ just a few minutes ago, I saw this video from Dr. Dennis Kimbro and I got fired up again.

He talked about the three pillars of entrepreneurial success.

-Mindset
-Network
-Unique Ability

That’s what required for YOU and I to be SUCCESSFUL business owners.

Yes, there are other fine details we need to have in place, however….

Our inability to have these 🔝 3️⃣ will limit us greatly.

Watch the video. Great depth to why these are important.

What are you doing daily to work on your top three? You gotta do something.

You can choose to see obstacles or opportunities.

Opportunities are all around. See them!

Congratulations Class of 2022!

See You Soon!
