Work Smarter, Not Harder: 2017

By: Eli Karam

The quote above is one that I had to read over and over again for it to REALLY sink in. Everyone always says the classic “new year, new me”, or insists they’re going to change something drastic about them come the new year. But even though it’s a great way to start the new year, do they really execute it? How many times have you personally said this and after a month into the new year, you’re already back to your old mundane ways.

I’m going into the new year with many takeaways and things to change, but only because I now have a firm grasp on what I want in life. “If you don’t know what truly motivates you, you really don’t know what will satisfy you”. How are you going to stay determined to change something in the new year if you don’t even know WHY you are doing it in the first place?

Advice: Go into 2017 not with a “new year, new me” perspective, but rather think about what you REALLY want in life and WHY. If it doesn’t motivate you then why do it? Don’t keep chasing something because you “think” you want it. Chase something meaningful, chase something that excites you, chase something that will benefit you in the future both personally and professionally. Work smarter, not harder. 2017 is your year, seize opportunity.

Happy New Year EntreWolves!

“Veni, Vidi, Vici”

“Veni, Vidi, Vici” (I came; I saw; I conquered)- is a Latin phrase popularly attributed to Julius Caesar. The phrase is used to refer to a swift, conclusive victory. 

I’ve always been infatuated by the Colosseum in Rome. A beautiful work of architecture & hardship distilled into it. The quote above is one of my favorite. If want something go get it! You have a new idea? Explain it, plan it and conquer the execution. Also there’s a reason why there’s a Full Moon in the photo….Seize opportunity wolves!

“I was born in the dark, molded by it”

By :Eli Karam

We were born in the dark, but it’s what we do in life that brings us to the light. Advice for the week; keep going! Even when you get knocked down, keep going. Even when you have been putting in overtime and don’t get the results you want…keep going. I’ve failed many times in life, and I’m only 23. But to be honest with you, I love it. If you can come back from it with a lesson learned, then you are on the path to success.

EntreWolves can’t be compared, we’re a certain breed. Every entrepreneur has been in the dark at some point in their life. (Steve Jobs, John Paul Dejoria, Richard Branson, Mark Cuban, Jay Z). But look at where they are now. Every now and then life knocks you down, but it does that to test you. To see, do really have what it takes? Are you really as strong or hungry as you say you are? Keep going don’t stop, you might miss an opportunity of a lifetime.
