I have been creating goals for a long time now thanks to my father - because of the Lord’s plan for such a thing in my life and family. I truly want to EMPHASIZE what I’m about to say. Truly, truly, truly. Every year in creating goals has been incredibly impactful for me. I have gained so much momentum year over year because of writing down my goals. I have particularly gained clarity and more beauty in my life since I wrote out my life plan in the self-authoring program. I have gained understanding, meaning, and endless lessons. With that said though, I’m at a place in my life now, that when I go a day without reading the Bible, the day feels lost. I am sensitive to any sin in my life. I want to serve others before myself. I want to give my life unto Christ. I even wrote on my whiteboard recently, “Am I willing to give up everything for Christ?” There was a recent season, in that being this summer of 22’, whereas work required a lot of effort from me. Building a company foundation is no different than building a home foundation. The commonality between both is that they require lots of detail, money, time, smarts, and diligence. With that said, such a season of foundationalizing ZIKI is now over. Growth is going to inveitablely come from what God has built, through us men. Of course, there is a ton of work to do, but the most critical part is secure. I pray that Nick leads his life in a Christ-like way and the Lord works in his heart to make Nick a Godly leader, even more than he is now, and to honor Christ in ALL of his actions. May Truth open his eyes to the areas in his life that aren’t Christ-like and Biblical. My focus can’t ever be anything but fully, ALL-IN for Christ. I love Jesus Christ. He is my Lord and Savior. I will honor Him in front of man, especially, and no matter, the persecution. I will do what I can to better my spiritual disciplines, in that the Grace of God pours through my life unto others. The world needs Christ. I need Christ. Daily. I even remember, writing in one of my first ever goal pages or on my bucket list, about how I was going to change the world. I always knew that in order to do that, I would need to change myself to ripple impact from inward, out. But that was before I was saved. Now, what I can say as a Christian is that the righteous one must go to the Word of God to develop their hearts and minds and thus let God flow through them as a vessel in order to impact others effectively, in a God-like manner. So, I state all of this to simply say: my life is Christ. I want it to be. I pray it will be. I want all of my actions to represent Christ. Through faith and through my actions, may others come to know the living God themselves, for the first-time or for the reason of ever more deepening of their individual faith-life. I’m not perfect, but the Lord is. My mind and heart that is setting the intentions that I write and list now are different than ever before. Yes, the time to prepare is always now (i.e. 2 Timothy 4:2–3), yet it’s ever more pressing on my heart that there is more at stake here for the faith in particular. I didn’t go to the military. I forwent that. Yet, I trained in a battlefield for developing ZIKI as a company. I was boots on the ground and hand to hand combat in business. I learned what I needed to in this business and the Lord used that. But during that time, since I moved to Austin and joined a sound church of GCA with great members, I have learned the real fight. The spiritual battle. The true mission field in that it’s all around us. The armor of God must be readily put on and the only offense sword in possession is the Word of God itself. Therefore, my focus is equipping myself for daily battle and future leadership, Lord willing, in leading armies of Christians here on earth in order to spread the Good News and save sinner by the Grace of God’s work in myself and others. I pray and beg to you now Lord. This is it. There is no holding back or surrendering. I feel it and know it. However, this tide in my life transitions / page in this chapter of my life turns, in whatever timeline, as my church brothers have wisely counseled me with, whether one is a preacher/pastor or not, the Word is the most important thing to consume and prioritize. Let the Lord’s will be done. It’s always better. Surrender. Let go. God is good. My life has been about hard decisions and decisiveness. Make me Yours, evermore. My life is Yours, Lord. I love you because you first loved me Jesus. Thank you Father God, Anthony

Life Learnings:

The best woman to chase is one who’s heart is so close to God that only a man who is chasing God can find her (vice versa for a woman towards a man).

God’s Love will never stop. Only yours will - if you stop believing in the trustworthiness and life of Jesus. Because we love because Jesus first loved us, which makes us right with God the Father. Remain faithful.

The most important investments you’ll make in your business is in your employees, in your people.

Don’t expect employees to perform to a certain standard within the confinds of your company if you haven’t trained them up on certain things yet.

People hate when they are pushed and challenged to be better. Yet, they will love you for doing it because when it comes time to perform, they’ll do it with ease.

Great leadership starts with great communication.

When ego’s are prevelant in kitchens amongst kitchen staff, it disrupts all operations and all food quality.

To be better, one must first see their weakness. Strength and confidence starts with being lowly. There is plenty of potential and room to rise up thereafter, because of that exact humility.

Without Jesus presence in one’s life, we are just like hamsters running on a hamster wheel. Our days. Our minds. Our entire living.

Stand firm in your beliefs.

Work for the change you want to see - in yourself, then in others.

Business: The better the foundation you build, the higher likelihood to effectively scale.
