>> I would start again with discipline because,
you know, you can have the faith and the belief

00:00:05.826 --> 00:00:09.266 A:middle
that you can do something, but there's
work that's applicable to that.

00:00:09.266 --> 00:00:13.136 A:middle
So you have to stay the course on being
disciplined; to not watch as much television,

00:00:13.136 --> 00:00:17.456 A:middle
not hang out with your friends,
not run around in bars.

00:00:17.856 --> 00:00:20.986 A:middle
But to stay focused on the goal
and what you're trying to get done.

00:00:20.986 --> 00:00:25.146 A:middle
The tenacity and the resilience is the strength
behind that that keeps pushing your forward.

00:00:25.546 --> 00:00:29.666 A:middle
And also I would say, being someone
that had to be a constant learner.

00:00:30.066 --> 00:00:33.276 A:middle
In the military, you're being
trained all the time to do your job.

00:00:34.046 --> 00:00:37.836 A:middle
And then make sure -- that's why we're
number one, you know, military force, right,

00:00:37.836 --> 00:00:40.386 A:middle
in the world because we're very well trained.

00:00:40.786 --> 00:00:47.566 A:middle
So that was another aspect that was easy for
me to transition into for entrepreneurship

00:00:47.566 --> 00:00:51.686 A:middle
because you need to really know what you're
doing and get your business acumen up to par.

00:00:52.126 --> 00:00:57.616 A:middle
Even though I did a minor in strategic
entrepreneurship and management with UMUC,

00:00:57.836 --> 00:01:03.106 A:middle
in the end, you know, that was a nice
kickstart for when I started my business

00:01:03.106 --> 00:01:05.296 A:middle
because I was able to pull
back from that information.

00:01:05.526 --> 00:01:08.666 A:middle
But there's constant training
in the land of entrepreneurship
