 That's about it guys. It is kind of Sad. I Actually don't know how to end this properly. I Am retiring friends and this is not a clickbait title. I'm gonna in this video I'm gonna share with you my whole journey what has happened and Where we're going with this all but before we do that I do want to take a minute and celebrate this Milestone of ours a hundred K subscribers guys. It is not an easy journey. I still remember When I first hired Jason two to three years ago two and a half years ago Three years almost three years ago That was the first thing and I guess objective that I gave Jason I'm like, yo Jason. We're gonna hit a hundred K subs by the end of the year Took us three times the time to get there, but nonetheless, we are here now guys I'm so so grateful for you for tuning in. I'm grateful for you because you have to trust and also Invested your time with me to learn from me to see the experiences that I'm sharing the insights that I'm sharing with you So I really really think I'm grateful for you to follow along the journey. It is truly truly remarkable that We're able to amass this amount of followers guys. No for one thing We are channel is super niche in the food and beverage industry and my videos are just completely boring and dry So I cannot really imagine that there's that many people that would actually be Interested in what I have to share and that's why I'm super super grateful. So thank you. Thank you for putting your trust in me now In the last couple years, we have achieved Tremendous amount of things and I'm so so grateful for everything that has happened all the opportunities that has arise because of this channel from being able to help hundreds and thousands of Entrepreneurs to being able to sit on a board of a publicly traded company. All of this is thanks to this whole journey And Unfortunately my Passion has shifted and it's over the holidays that I really came to this realization that My passion in food business has shifted away because It felt it didn't feel challenging anymore It didn't feel like I was getting my hands dirty because all along I'm just coaching and coaching and coaching and mentoring. I Felt like that. I Was missing from the action and that's the reason why I was a little bit distance From this industry because in a way, I'm just looking for my far I'm advising and consulting and I feel like it would do my Audience that are following me it the service when I'm sharing content and sharing strategies that I'm not practicing myself and Yet being in the food industry for five plus years I've seen the good bad and the ugly and I just realized that it's not really something that I'm truly passionate in and that's the reason why I'm not going to start a restaurant and it just came to Just dawned on me that I wouldn't want to continue the rest of my life Doing something that I'm not a hundred percent passionate in So that's why over the holidays I took some time off. I Spent a lot of time with my newborn Weston Just a lot more family time to reflect reflect on what I truly want to do reflect on what makes me happy and That's why I've decided to retire this channel retire my career in the food and beverage space Now for some of you that have continually support me have also enrolled in the learnings to classes All of those will continue to run Because the content that I share is really the business fundamental for anyone out there to take on and succeed Now at the same time I Wouldn't be going through the weekly coaching calls nor going to have any lives any more in the future So I just want to be completely authentic with you and just share with you what is happening as of right now So some of you might ask so now that your passion is not here then where did it go? Well for me, I've always been a big fan of being in the action Being in the forefront of technology being in the right industries where the action is And that's why I found blockchain technology to be super fascinating And in from now on I'm actually going to just be full on head first Diving into the blockchain technology specifically in the NFT space Because I just find it super accelerating I find it to be part of the future and I want to make sure that I position myself To do something that not only I enjoy But also is going to be able to allow me to continue to lead the pack as well So if you guys are interested to follow along my journey and this Shift feel free to follow along in my Twitter profile and the new projects that I'm doing and the new YouTube channel that we are starting That's about it guys it is kind of Sad I Actually don't know how to end this properly. It feels like The party's over and that The lights are turning on and I don't want to leave weird feeling I Yeah Parties elsewhere now. It's elsewhere in a party elsewhere. They can join us Wow, it's Thank you. Thank you. It's Wow, holy It's been three years Jason The thing is there's gonna be crossover Right restaurants eventually gonna need to care about Blockchain yeah, I I'm I guess it's not I'm getting very Emotional because it feels like a really good chapter that I'm ending Not that I'm foreign to it. I feel like as an Entrepreneur we need to continue to reinvent ourselves continue to evolve But it's like when you close the chapter of your life Knowing that this will be the last time that we see each other in this type of setting for this specific topic it just gives me a lot of Feels I don't know. I don't want to end this relationship You know, I mean not that we are and as you said, we're not ending the relationship We're shifting the relationship And you guys can still follow me along my journey and I'll continue to be here just in a different setting but nonetheless I Yeah, I really do appreciate you guys for Following along this whole journey truly because it's incredible the amount of people that I meet The people that actually fly in from tonight tonight to to meet with me the lives that we're able to change an impact the businesses from having an idea to actually helping people actually build out the restaurant and it being thriving Like all these things all these different memories that we have created It's incredible. So just want to say thank you and I will see you guys Soon That's it Jason. I think yeah That's it. Do you think that's it? Peace
