As you ready for a new, challenge at the Black Business Olympics. Congratulations, on accepting the challenge to be one of our Black Business Triathlon competitors at the Black Business Olympics, held April 24-30, 2023 from 8 am to 8 pm. One of our Black Business Triathlon team challengers is Ramona Rogers-Smith of Purpose and Business Coaching YOU LLC, who is accepting all speaker competitors at the Black Business Triathlon for the month of April. It is an honor to have her on the team! We cannot wait to see all of the speakers competing in this month's Black Business Olympics and sharing their Businesses and their excellence at the 15th Olympiad. Every month of this year as the Black Business Olympic games approach, Black Businesses all over the world prepare to show their amazing Business. As we showcase new speakers and new Businesses, here is some inspiring encouragement from the Black Business Olympic founder as we celebrate your hard work and personal determination. We have presented your remarkable Businesses with medals, and remember winning bronze does not always mean being last. Winning a medal means, you are doing better than you have ever done before. To win in life and Business means focus, discipline, hard work, goal setting, and of course, the thrill of finally achieving your goals. These are all lessons of life. If you dream and allow yourself to dream, you can do anything. The world never puts a price on you higher than the one you put on yourself. Without passion, you will not do something 100 percent. That is the bottom line. A popular fallacy is the mark of a poor planner. However, the truth is that when one stops falling, he has probably stopped improving. Are you going to stand or are you going to crumble and not speak again? We invite you back to speak and to join in our boldest experience yet, the Black Business Triathlon! Many ask to participate in the Black Business Olympiad yet only a few are chosen to present. Are you ready for the ultimate test at the April Black Business Olympics? Just remember if you fail to prepare, you have prepared to fail. Passion and relentlessness are huge prerequisites to delivering a winning Business presentation. The more you dream, the farther you get. The key is not the will to win. Everybody has that. It is the will to prepare to win that is important. Let us win together and save our young adults from failure by providing education and scholarships during the Black Business Olympics weeklong celebration. Dr. Eric Kelly III, Founder
