Hi Jamie, it has been a while since we last spoke, how is your Entrepreneurial journey progressing?
Everything is going very well thank you! Since we last spoke I have been made the Youth Ambassador of an educational charity named BXL, I am now onto running my second company too, which is called, Made by Young People!
Wow, you have been very busy, how have you managed to do so much in so little time?
Time is valuable, so spending it productively and working on the more important tasks and projects first would be something that I have definitely learned in the past couple of months. Along with learning this, I have been able to break down my own mental barriers, before I used to believe that things were possible to be achieved overnight but I have definitely learned that this is not always the case and to be more persistent and patient with things.
So what kind of projects are you working on at the moment?
I am working on some consultancy projects with a few different organizations at the moment and always delivering quite a few speeches across the country but my big main project that is taking up all my current time is planning my next big adventure…
New adventure? Tell us some more!
I have set myself the task of travelling around 19 countries in 19 days on a budget of only £1000 all to mark my final teenage year as I will be turning 20 next January! I am going to complete this task to hopefully show other teenagers that anything is possible if you try hard enough, I have had loads of people already tell me that this can’t be done so that’s my motivation, to show that it can be and break down the barriers of belief for other people!
So where can we possibly find out some more about this?
I have uploaded a list of dates and countries that I will be visiting on my website. As part of my challenge too I will be blogging from every country and I would also like to perhaps do some free work with organizations from across the globe and also provide a free speech to different educational systems in each country but I am still very open to suggestions on what to do in each country so please get in touch if you have a great idea!

Be in the flow…
let go of your fear; of your need to be in control
for it imprisons your dreams.
Breathe deeply in the darkness…
an illusion cast forth by your light;
no other can take your place.
Let the world be blinded by your majesty…
a beacon to those struggling to find their way;
for it is your divinity to shine like the star you truly are.
Go; enter the dragon’s den and reclaim your heart.

Inspiring you to do work you love
“It’s so easy to get caught up wanting to save the world, run a successful business, be in great shape, have immense wealth… success, no wonder we runs ourselves ragged.
When all is said and done, what we really want is to be happy, feel loved… for life to flow; and when that’s your aim is life everything else falls in to place; well, that’s what I’ve found.”

“When you choose to be yourself; to be authentic, you begin to soar… to be (in)credible in life”
While browsing the net, catching up with my regular dose of news from different blog sites, I came across few things that I thought would help motivate and encourage us to get up and acknowledge that we already have what it takes to become the future/successful entrepreneurs, we just need to believe it.
All we need to do is to take the necessary steps required.
You know you’re a young entrepreneur when you start to look around in your classroom and think of ways your classmates can profit you in some way (not monetary necessarily).
You know you’re an entrepreneur when eating food or sleeping seems like a chore to you.
You know you’re an entrepreneur when your enthusiasm keeps you awake at night and you start to think of ways to profit from insomnia.
You know you’re an entrepreneur when…you work 16 hours a day for yourself, so you don’t have to work 8 hours a day for someone else…
You’re an entrepreneur when time freezes while you are doing what you feel passionate about. You forget that there’s a thing called breakfast, lunch and dinner. And you forget what is sleeping, and you forget that everything else is there.
Everything, everyone, every situation becomes an opportunity
You know you’re an entrepreneur when you bore your mates with business ideas!
You know you’re an Entrepreneur when you sometimes lose sight of every other thing in your life that has value, and you know it, but you keep pushing because your drive to succeed is too strong and uncontrollable!
You know you’re an entrepreneur when…your friends keeping asking if you’ve totally lost your mind…and you just smile.
You know you’re an entrepreneur when you cringe at the thought at ever having to be an employee again.
You know you’re an entrepreneur when you take your girlfriend out to dinner and try to give her financial advice.
You know you’re an entrepreneur when you are making more while in college than your peers will when they graduate.
