• Transforming School Culture Through the Entrepreneurial Mindset
    Nov 25 2024

    The time to teach the transformative power of the entrepreneurial mindset is now--and the age is as soon as we start learning. The entrepreneurial mindset will transform an entire school culture in four distinct ways: first is through its Biblical principle found in Romans 12:2. Second is through the ripple effect of transformation and how it spreads from person to person. Third is through the process of renewal that happens when we embrace a mindset opposite of conformity. And finally, an entrepreneurial mindset causes us to stretch and dream bigger than we ever though possible. Through this, we can come to live the transformed life.

    Nov 19 2024

If we're going to be the kind of people who think like entrepreneurs, we have to be ready to seek and chase opportunity when it shows up--that is not the time to plan and prepare. This requires having a readiness mindset, developing our skills, creating systems and habits, and preparing both financially and emotionally. Once this plan is in place, we are ready whenever opportunity shows up.

  • Two Steps to Become More Antifragile
    Nov 11 2024

    As we explore this idea of antifragility more and more, it becomes apparent that there are key techniques we can implement into our lives that will help us build systems to encourage antifragility (as opposed to fragility). First, this means we need to lean into redundancy and second this means we need to actively get rid of the things making us fragile. If we work toward building our own antifragility, we are working toward an entrepreneurial mindset.

  • Beyond Resilience: Building a Mindset of Antifragility
    Nov 4 2024

    We focus a lot, when it comes to the entrepreneurial mindset, on resilience and the development of grit. We like to consider ourselves elastic enough that we can "bounce back" from difficulty and return to our normal state. What if, however, there was a way for us to go beyond resilience and build a mindset of antifragility so that the volatility and stress we will inevitably encounter in life leaves us stronger and better as a result?

  • Always Be Moving: Avoid the Risk of Inaction
    Oct 14 2024

    To have an entrepreneurial mindset is to have a mindset biased toward action--if we are biased toward action, then when the decision comes to do or to not do, we will lean toward doing. In this, we will be able to steer and course correct along the way, but we if never act, we never make movement, which leads to the ongoing regret of inaction.
