The most underrated skill in my industry is creativity in how we source. We leave no stone unturned—thrift shops, estate sales, you name it. Hustle with a twist is where it’s at. What skill do you think deserves more credit in your field? #ThinkOutsideTheBox #HustlersMentality

A habit I developed that transformed how I work? Always being hungry to learn new things. It doesn’t matter if it’s unrelated to what I do—learning keeps me sharp. When you stop learning, you start regressing. Let me share why this mindset is so important. 🧵

The dumbest piece of advice I followed? “Just grind more.” Yeah, no. Grinding 24/7 without a plan or rest is a recipe for burnout. You need strong motivation to sustain that, and let’s be real—most of us can’t. Here’s why I ditched the non-stop grind. 🧵

The biggest risk I took was moving to a whole new state after cleaning out the profit from the previous one. Scary? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely. Sometimes you’ve gotta leap when the map runs out. What’s the boldest move you’ve made? #RiskAndReward #EntrepreneurLife

A challenge I overcame? Learning to cut off things (and people) to succeed—and being okay with it. Letting go isn’t easy, but I’ve realized it’s better to focus on the few things that truly matter than get stuck in a sea of “good enough.” Here’s how that shaped me. 🧵

The most surprising skill I’ve picked up? Getting way better at Excel. I went from barely knowing the basics to understanding functions, formulas, and how to build spreadsheets that are as complex (or simple) as I need. Honestly, it’s kind of awesome. 🧵

My best experience as an Amazon reseller? Visiting a library sale in Texas. Not only was everyone super nice, but they also asked me and my business partner about what we do. It was a total shock compared to back home, where book sales felt like a UFC match. Let me tell you. 🧵

5 years ago, I never would’ve guessed I’d move to Texas just by selling media. Life has a way of throwing curveballs, and some of them turn out to be home runs. ⚾️ What’s surprised you about your journey? #LifeChanges #KeepMovingForward

The most valuable lesson I’ve learned from working with difficult people? Patience. Like, the patience of 1,000 monks—and maybe a stressed-out yoga teacher on their 3rd espresso. It wasn’t easy, but it shaped how I handle challenges today. Let me share. 🧵

Mental toughness isn't about strength—it's about resilience.
Here’s what keeps me going:
Shrink the win: micro-goals build momentum.
Lock in a routine: when chaos strikes, systems save you.
Zoom out: patience wins wars, not battles.
The path is hard. But endurance pays compounding interest.
