๐Ÿ”ฅ Build It or Be Ruled by It
Entrepreneurs, this verse doesnโ€™t whisper โ€” it calls you out.
โ€œDiligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in forced labor.โ€
โ€” Proverbs 12:24
This isnโ€™t just about working hard.
Itโ€™s about whoโ€™s in control.
The diligent entrepreneur builds systems, vision, margin, and freedom.
The lazy one โ€” not always inactive, just undisciplined and inconsistent โ€” ends up ruled by deadlines, stress, debt, bosses, algorithms, or other peopleโ€™s expectations.
Hereโ€™s the uncomfortable truth:
If you donโ€™t choose diligence, something else will choose control for you.
๐Ÿ”ฅ Entrepreneur gut check:
Are you building something that will one day serve youโ€ฆ
or are you slowly becoming a servant to the thing youโ€™re building?
๐Ÿ‘‡ Engage honestly:
Where do you need more diligence right now โ€” your habits, your focus, or your follow-through?
