“37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment” . For over 28 YEARS - he’s been my guide, my personal spiritual advisor, my friend, my brother. . We lived together, we pledged together - he’s always had my front - and I will always have his back. . There was never any doubt he has calling on his life - a special anointing - and I almost exploded with pride yesterday morning watching him deliver his first sermon as SENIOR PASTOR of @eastsidechurchatl - God is going to do WONDROUS things through you my brother - I’m with you all they way. . Family join me next Sunday too - and hear a good word - from an amazing Pastor - @tavaresstephens - May God continue to bless you “Pastor T”.

POWERFUL DAY!!! . The morning started hosting 80 of the most prominent incubator, accelerator and innovation hub leaders from around the GLOBE - as a part of the InBIA, International Business Innovation Association annual conference! @theinbia . Then to see the future realized in real time as our 15 year old restaurantuer and RICE Stakeholder Mason Wright - CEO and owner of @masonssuperdogs led a pitch event for his fellow Young CEOs - securing the future and handing out thousands in grant money! . And the MOST INSPIRING part of the day was to end it with 40 amazing businessmen and businesswomen from around the continent of Africa - sharing ideas and building international community as a part of the Mandela Washington Fellowship @mandelawashfellowship . Act Locally - Build Nationally - Scale Globally! . Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs - @riceatlanta - WORLDWIDE! . Only the start…

Unbelievable. . Everybody’s hard, everybody’s got “sticks”, everybody is “not to be f’d wit”, “gang gang”, we’ve been hijacked by thug culture and celebrated it in the trap. . Smh. . The perfect gumbo of poverty, violent music culture, social media mythology, and an overall dumbing down effect - leads to a brother shooting and killing a mother in front of her son - over too much mayonnaise on his sandwich - and critically injuring another. . This is my Uncle’s Subway - he’s owned it going on two decades - a proud business owner that provided jobs on the westside - now so crushed he is considering shutting it all down. . Something is happening to our humanity - we are becoming something different. . /news/downtown-atlanta-subway-shooting-mayo-fight.amp

“Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair…” . I’m learning now to normalize grace and be comfortable with favor…that hasn’t always been the case. . This recognition is especially humbling - thank you @atlbizchronicle - our work is only just beginning. I’m deeply honored. . Congrats to all the powerful change agents on this year’s ABC Power 100 - Atlanta is a very special place - and shame on us if we don’t all come together in this time right now while we are at the helm - to create something history will never forget. Our time is now! . https://lnkd.in/gtv_g3Df

Imagine it. . A company going from an IDEA to $150 MILLION+ in revenue - with 150+ employees - IN JUST FOUR YEARS - on a rocket ship pace to reach a BILLION in revenue in the next 3 to 5 years. . From problem to profitable. A company built with intentionality to solve a BIG problem for a global powerhouse. . Great time spent this morning with one of the coolest CEOs you will EVER meet - Stephen Denton - Chief Executive Officer of @ware2go_us and the entire W2G Family! . There is a model - there is a method - there is a mechanism that can and will be created - WITH INCLUSIVE INTENTIONALITY at its core. . Something BIG is brewing. .
