The African American Business Owner, Building True Wealth

Want Your Resolution to Work? Do These Things!

Episode Summary

On this episode of the African-American Business Owners Podcast, Ron Escoffery gives us a lesson on New Year’s Resolutions and why they usually don’t work. Ron teaches us that the main reason for failed New Year’s Resolutions is because of our mindset. If we’re not in the right mindset when we make our resolutions, we can’t expect to fulfill them. So before we make any resolutions, we must first look inward and ask ourselves what we really want. Ron Escoffery is a serial entrepreneur who’s faced these challenges himself, failed more than once, but has ultimately come out on top. He’s published three books on his experiences and, in this new podcast, is broadening the discussion on what it means to build true wealth and how to achieve it. On the 13th episode of the African-American Business Owners Podcast, Ron Escoffery guides us on how to fix our mindset and acquire the mental toughness we need to make 2021 a successful year.
