Risking it all
Vance always had a passion for creation. The definition of entrepreneur is a person who organizes and operates a business or businesses, taking on greater than normal financial risks in order to do so.To create the life Vance saw for himself it required him to literally take greater than normal risk, in absolute, in every aspect of his life and he’s been doing it since his childhood days. Having done jobs since the age of 9 like fixing computers, mowing lawns and helping operate a food truck, he realized that despite all the hard work, his earnings were dismal. In high-school he bought and sold sneakers really honing his marketing and sales skills. By 2016, his second semester in college, he founded his digital marketing agency and went on to graduate with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration in Marketing from Texas Tech University. Vance has always been an entrepreneur at heart.
“I don’t advise following ‘passions’ most people’s passions will never fulfill them financially and whether we as a society admit it publicly or not most people have financial goals in life.”- Vance explains.

He also shares that money isn’t everything and doesn’t equate to happiness yet many of our goals and passions do have financial ties. Subconsciously we all know that but admitting it to ourselves is a bigger conversation.
Push through anxiety and stress
The path of entrepreneurship is full of ups and downs, and Vance has faced a lot of challenges himself, from detractors to those who outrightly rejected his choices.

In these times too, Vance explains how one should stay positive and be ready to give your 100%. His favourite quote is one of Tony Robbins which says, "If you want to take the island, burn your boats, and you will take the island, people who are willing to die to succeed tend to succeed. Most of us give ourselves outs that"s why we don"t have what we want."
