5 Tips on your craft to someone who's thinking about starting the same business as you:

Don’t get into it into the sense to make money – you need to work out your reasons why you’re doing it as that will get you through the hard times.
Focusing first on creating really high quality content over quantity.
Hire where it hurts.
Don’t put your eggs into one basket – Focus on the stuff you own in your business so that if Facebook or Instagram change you have something to fall back on.
Find a way to best connect with your people – focus on your own values and what things mean to you, don’t try to be someone your not.

How do you incorporate God into your business?

By being generous
By being good stewards of God’s money
By serving and glorifying God
By talking to God throughout the day, not just in set “prayer time”

Life Verse:

1 Peter 4:10

Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.

Verse this season:

Philippians 3:12-14

I’m not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back.

“12 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.”
