KEY TAKEAWAYS
Sometimes, no matter how keen (or maybe stubborn) we are striving for a certain thing, there are still some external factors that will disturb your pace or even alter your destination. If it will make you feel any better, just know that the universe may be nudging you in a better direction.
For example, Deon thought he would be a pro football player for the rest of his life. He was a varsity player in high school and college. He followed every step in the rulebook to be fit, to be disciplined, and be the best player ever. He had to change directions because of an injury. This didn’t stop him from dreaming and still aiming to be the best of the best. He did everything to let it heal and also learn more about the sport. But when he came back, it seems like the puzzle pieces didn’t fit anymore.
After everything that happened, he knew the NFL plan was now off the table. He could continue, but his mind eventually focused on increasing his wealth. First, he looked for his niche and started positioning himself as one of the go-to people in that field.
Sometimes, it’s okay to just jump into something head-on even without prior knowledge. Continue learning—be a lifelong learner. Deon Fowler started his own moving company. At first he didn’t know how to manage a team- he didn’t know how to keep them motivated and maintain high performance. But he observed and learned.
Aside from being a serial entrepreneur, Deon also helps other aspiring business owners (especially young adults) through business coaching. He believes that his experiences, his journey to personal development are great starting points for others to learn.
