Growing up, whenever I heard people say that “You could be anything you want”, I never believed it because I never got to see people around me becoming what they wanted.

I saw people who did what they had to do to survive but never become what they wanted to be.

Fast forward to the time we live in now and with all of the tools and resources available to us, my belief now is that we are only limited by our creativity.

Everyone’s situations are different but it is encouraging when you see people being able to support themselves and families by just learning how to use their smartphone.

The time for creativity is now and I hope that whatever life you are creating, you lean into thinking outside of the box to innovate within your respective niche.

Sunday Motivation: The Time For Creativity Is Now

In this episode, we explore a case study of the digipreneur vs entrepreneur and their 2 approaches when it comes to starting a business.

The Digital Age is going to require you to make the biggest mindset shift in our lifetime.

The rules have changed and most of what we were taught has expired.

If you can accept that technology is the great equalizer and are willing to learn the skills needed that will have you start and run a business from a laptop, you can carve out your space to succeed.

The Entrepreneur & The DigiPreneur whilst both enterprising…will take 2 routes different routes to a goal.

The difference is that many of us can’t even get started becoming entrepreneurs because of all the hurdles.

The DigiPreneur can be anybody with an idea, a computer and an internet connection!

If there is 1 message I want to repeat to everybody, it is this one…You Don’t Need Validation.

You do not need people to understand your journey, understand where you are coming from, give you permission, to cheer you on…you don’t need this from anybody.

People will always doubt or critique, what they cannot wrap their minds around. Whether this is family, friends, people we are in relationships with…we do not need their permission or validation to pursue our dreams.

This is how people never get their ideas off the ground!

In 2021, we here in the Caribbean need to step up our marketing efforts.

We have yet to make the shift necessary to understand that marketing is a revenue-generating activity and learn that great marketing sells or generates leads.

Social media marketers of the Caribbean…likes and engagement means nothing to CEOs who are looking at their bottom line & you can’t show how your work generates revenue.

These 5 areas outlined in this episode are key areas for improvement.

We live in a time where it’s harder to give excuses for our situations.

We can learn skills right from home, start businesses with just a smartphone and connect with anybody across the globe.

Limitations are for those who aren’t creative enough to create a solution.

Let’s take the time this week to learn how to change the stories in our heads when we come across the challenges that we face. Most times, when faced with something that is giving us a tough time, we create more excuses as to why to quit than reasons we need to press on.

If we learn how to change the stories we tell ourselves to complete tasks, we can limit the excuses we give ourselves to not get something done.

I know for me, this episode is serving as a pep talk to myself to finally change the narrative in my head about working out and getting back into physical form that would allow me to find better mental focus.

In this week’s edition of Sunday Motivation’s, we revisit one of the most popular pieces of content that I created…Each One, Teach One.

I was feeling a bit under the weather this weekend but I didn’t want to miss our Sunday session.

The old African proverb “Each One, Teach One”, is a message that I wish to spread across the Digipreneur family. Helping our community to level up will never take away from what you do. The only way the Caribbean region is going to rebound from the pandemic is by a collective movement.

I hope you enjoy today’s message.

Sunday Motivation: Each One, Teach One

One of the biggest issues that have been popping up frequently during the course of the pandemic is “Burn Out”.

It’s a question that I get asked a lot because of the amount of work that I do and to be honest, when I give people my response, they are usually a bit shocked.

Since starting my business back in 2016, I have never felt burnout or coming close to it. I have needed to kind of sit with the reasons why I may not feel those feelings that people describe and I have narrowed it down to 6 key things within the life that has helped me.

Burnout is definitely real and I am not telling you that it doesn’t exist. The people who do feel it, their feelings and reasons are valid. I think you should listen to them and take lessons from them and then also take notes from those who haven’t experienced burnout. That way you have 2 perspectives that you can now use to help guide you.
