You got to be happy with the work you do. You got to be happy with the boss you have with the co workers you have. Because when you're happy, things get easier.

Welcome to Make Sh*t Happen, This is three-minute Thursday, episode number 159. A lot of people think entrepreneurship is just starting your own business and having your own business and having the freedom of time. Having made a lot of money. Entrepreneurship is a way of life. It's a lifestyle change. When you an entrepreneur, you gotta make sure that how you can take risks. But at the same time, reduce the possibility of failing. And to reduce the possibility of losing everything but entrepreneurship, you have to take risks. But if people think entrepreneurship is freedom of time, I got to tell you, it really isn't. You got to be able to do a lot of things all at one time. And it's a lifestyle. You're constantly thinking. You're constantly evolving. You're constantly trying to grow. You're constantly trying to increase your footprint.All that is entrepreneurship.

But, you know, I was thinking and I was like, this morning after I worked out, I was letting it sink in me. And I'm like, you know if you go to work, you got to work. You got to put in work because you don't make any money. If you don't go to work, if you don't get out of the house, you don't go to work. You're just not gonna make money. There are so many people nowadays who are not going to work there because they're like, they can find 20,000 different excuses why they don't want to work.

The welcome to make sh*t it happened. This is episode number 156. Hey, guys, today I brought in Mark Hopson. Mark really kind of,  I met Mark 22 years ago. And when I had a small store in Almeda Mall. And throughout the years, Mark taught me a lot about furniture directly or indirectly. And, you know, he has great knowledge about the furniture industry. He's been you don't find somebody who has worked the same job for 44 years, been with the same company 44 years. And Mark Hopson is one of them. Mark is a native Houstonian, seen, you know, the business landscape change, the furniture industry change.

Welcome to Make Sh*t Happen. This is three minute Thursday, episode number 155. Hey, guys, I met somebody the other day, and these people are talking about, Hey, my business slow, blah, blah, blah. And we're like, Oh, man, these people are talking, well, you should advertise on Instagram and everything. And this Lady that we are talking to, she does hair and makeup, right. And before I get in the story, what the stories you give me? I got to say, time is a precious commodity. And when you are selling services and it's the time, time is basically your inventory. But time is something that once it goes, you can never get it back. Right? When you sell a tangible asset, when I say tangible, acid, like, it can be this Yeti Cup, it can be these headphones. It can be furniture, shirt, something tangible where you can touch, you know, you can set a price on that goods. And if someone don't want to pay that price, no problem. You'll still have that asset, and you can sell it to somebody else. And hopefully you'll get that price right. Unless you have that inventory for a long time now, you wantto get rid of it because that inventory is not making money is not turning. That's just one of the principles of business. But when you're selling services, when you're selling time, sometimes you have to bend your prices. That's what I feel like.

This is three minute Thursday, episode number 153. Hey guys, what's going on today? This is episode number 153. I'm just thinking, man, time is going by so fast. I mean, it is going by so fast. June is almost over and we are six months. First six months of the year is over and the last six months, the second half is about to start. Four th of July is going to be right here. And I know a lot of you are going to have hopefully some plans for four th of July. This is going to be a long four th of July. So I know a lot of people will be leaving work early on Friday and you got Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, man. You're going back to work on the 6th , 5th is a holiday. Guess what I know is going to be party time. But whatever you do, man, whatever you are doing, do it wisely. Do it in a smart way. One decision, 1 thing, one decision can change your life. Always be cognizant of that. Always be aware of that. You are one decision away from changing your life. Everything you do. So whatever it is, it can be a good decision. It could be a bad decision. And it all starts with mindset. What is in my mindset?
