b"\\u201cListen to your elders!\\u201d I know we\\u2019ve all heard that before, and the older we get\\u2014we realize we were told that for good reason! Not to date the latest guest to join the #YearOfTheVet family, Michael Anthony Carr, but this Kosovo era veteran brings some wisdom to the conversation from his childhood in the Bronx right before the beginning of Hip-Hop, to the longest and most tiresome (and rewarding) job we\\u2019ll ever have\\u2026 Marriage.
Having a nomad's heart, \\u201cMike-C\\u201d (which I never once call him, but it seems like a very fitting Bronx name) talks about culture, traveling, and how all that facilitated this journey for him to find his brand, which as of today we can address as the Dreadlock Connoisseur!

Michael is the epitome of an entrepreneur, being that he\\u2019s found himself working \\u201con\\u201d radios in the service, to petroleum, computer repair, phone cards, investing, sales, wine, blogging, and some jobs that shall remain nameless in writing, and you\\u2019ll have to catch it in the conversation. However, even with all that background of being a Jack-of-all-Trades, Michael soon recognized from \\u201cbeing an entrepreneur, and continuously falling over,\\u201d he learned that his mindset of \\u201cmake money, and run your own stuff [isn\\u2019t] a true vision\\u2026\\u201d and that is where he really learned about his brand: Leadership.
