I am not a hustler, so what does that make me?

If there is a consistent message breaking through for me on social media, it’s the concept that we must all be out there hustling to build businesses and opportunities – especially if we’re entrepreneurs. Gary Vaynerchuck is the poster child of the hustle today, because let’s face it, no one does it better than him!

A month off work AND social media unleashed my mind

I achieved it, a month off both work and social media…. well not 100 percent off, because you know, let’s not be crazy now. But as off as I could be, especially on the professional side. Not to mention, the constant lack of Wi-Fi issues and connectivity challenges – which mostly took it out of my hands – wasn’t
