Intro to my book "small things" let me know what you think.

It was my first day on the job at Apple, coincidentally the launch of the iPhone 6. That day, I sold so many phones that when I went home, I couldn't sleep. The excitement, the rushโ€”it was overwhelming. I knew Iโ€™d be doing the same thing the next day and for nearly six months after, as we sold thousands of iPhones daily.

This experience sparked a realization in me: one day, I would leave ๏ฃฟ to start a company, something that would engage people through smartphones. I had no idea what it would be or how Iโ€™d achieve it, but I knew I wanted to create something meaningful through technology, something that provided real solutions for users.

For the next four and a half years, I couldnโ€™t stop thinking about how to make this a reality. One early idea was a video platform, like Zoom, where people could get personal tech assistance. But at the time, investors told me no one would use video as a communication toolโ€”this was before the pandemic changed everything.

Despite the doubts, a month before my daughter was born, I made a life-altering decision. I quit my job to pursue this dream of creating something valuable with technology. Iโ€™ll never forget the call I received while at work in the Apple Store in Dallas, Texasโ€”my now exwife was headed to the hospital, and my daughter was about to be born. As I left the store that day, I knew it was the last time Iโ€™d ever return.

What followed has been an eight-year journey of highs and lowsโ€”successes, failures, new friendships, broken relationships, loss, gain, intellectual property battles, and countless lessons learned.

This book is for my children, their children, and future generations. My hope is that my story will inspire them to be creators, innovators, and problem solvers, not just consumers.

Because if thereโ€™s one thing Iโ€™ve learned on this path, itโ€™s that the limits we set in our minds are small compared to the boundless potential the universe has in store for us. We just need to trust in it.

This made me very emotional.

Summer of 2018 people said we would never be able to build car service using Teslaโ€™s let alone creating an app people would use.

This is the first ride we ever offered to the public, no app just a calendar and bank account.

I did something stupid that summer, my partner Kevin Shea rented a Tesla and I went on social and told the universe eCarra was alive!!

Spent $25 bucks on IG and this guy responded to our post and hit the DM. Took him and his girlfriend around Dallas in an all electric carโ€ฆ

Holy s**t, it was awesomeโ€ฆ I love driving first of all and I love taking care of people. (Do what you love)

It was this experience that I knew we could do anything!!! So, we got busy building an amazing app thanks to my friend Mike Carpenter, aka magicMike!!

We got business from RealPage, Inc. which was our first paying account. We raised $600k to keep building so we decided to redesign our app to help other operators like us. We empowered FareRyder to expand their business in our Nations capital and now have 20,000 users, more than we do in Dallas. ๐Ÿ’œโšก๏ธโšก๏ธ

We almost died, the pando crippled us beyond anything I could have imagined. I lost everything most people would consider valuable, relationships changed, lost good team members.

My partner IDrive1 MotorCars - Pre-Owned Tesla's Dallas saw the vision and believe in me, they have been valuable to us, kept us aliveโ€ฆ EVERYONE SHOULD BUY ELECTRIC CARS FROM D**K AND HIS TEAM.

Iโ€™m grateful for what weโ€™ve accomplished together. The passion is still flaming within me as in this picture years ago.

Today, we began new! In a few weeks we will go live Dallas love Airport, come see us in baggage claim when you fly Southwest!

We will continue to bring value to the communities we love. We will be an example of CLEAN transportation, we will not pollute the air, we will utilize electric vehicles smarter now, we will help provide charging, software and hardware to operators.

We will plant millions of trees around the world because WE CAN!!

Only about 12%โ€“30% of the energy from the fuel you put in a gas vehicle is used to move it down the road and we fight over it. So fu***ng dumb. **t ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒฟ
