There\u2019s no question that being an entrepreneur is\ntough. But imagine coming to America just starting out to years later running\nvarious successful businesses. That example is none other than the Jamaican\nnative, Lynden Weddas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A businessman originally from Kingston who grew\nup in the Bronx, in the State of New York, Mr. Weddas is revolutionizing the\nbusiness world through the formation of successful leaders by teaching them\nfinancial literacy on all levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I had a chance to sit down with Lynden Weddas,\nCEO of Weddas Enterprise, a financial literacy company, to learn about his work\nand how he\u2019s been able to take his life, and those of others, to the next\nlevel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For starters, when it comes to his work ethic,\nMr. Weddas doesn\u2019t mince words: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
IT’S LIKE FAITH AND WORK: PUT BOTH INTO ACTION AND YOU’LL GET A MASTERPIECE,” HE SHARED.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Mr. Weddas, who moved to The United States at a\nyoung age, is convinced that in order to build something special you must be\nwilling to do it alone, against all odds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSUCCESS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT ANYONE CAN DO FOR ANYONE ELSE, IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING PERSONAL AND EXTREMELY IMPORTANT; FOR ME, IT\u2019S MY FAMILY, TIME, FINANCIAL FREEDOM AND BEING REWARDED FOR WHAT I\u2019M WORTH,\u201d HE EXPLAINS.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Years back, when he evaluated what he was earning\nwhile working a 9am to 5pm job in a private company and the time it required,\nhe concluded that he could dedicate the same or even less time to his own\nbusiness and enjoy the advantage of helping many more people but, also, be able\nto share it with his family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBEING ABLE TO PROVIDE WHAT MY FAMILY NEEDS AND PAY FOR WHAT WE WANT WHILE HELPING OTHERS WITHOUT HESITATION OR HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT MISSING MONEY, BILLS, OR NOT HAVING ENOUGH TO COVER EVERYTHING, THAT\u2019S WHY I DO WHAT I DO. AT THE END OF THE DAY IT IS ABOUT CREATING A LEGACY SO THAT MY CHILDREN NEVER HAVE TO GO TO BED HUNGRY, AS I DID,\u201d HE SAYS.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Lynden Weddas, who throughout his life has\novercome great obstacles, stresses that he did not make excuses because he knew\nthat his circumstances did not determine his destiny. Instead, he knew that\nthey were indispensable ingredients to create his life and his legacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He began his business full-time in March 2019,\nand, in such a short time, he is successfully on track to replace & surpass\nhis income from previous years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, the goal is clear: To change the lives of\n1,000 people in 2019. And the way things are going, it looks like Mr. Weddas\nwill surpass that goal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After all, he channels his own determination when\nmotivating and teaching others that they, too, can achieve financial freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There\u2019s no question that being an entrepreneur is tough.
