to a FOX2Now news report, his self-started company is now worth $3.5 million.
News of this remarkable, young entrepreneur hit media outlets this week, and after several interviews, Jalen posted a blog to make sure the glory was being directed to the right place; to God.
"In light of recent media attention," wrote Bledsoe on his blog. "I've been so busy speaking on the company and not thanking Someone who should be thanked. I'd like to thank my Lord and Savior. Without Him, I would be nowhere. He's given me the blessing to have the company and profound success, but to also be a motivation to others."
In his blog, Jalen shared some words of wisdom in the form of motivational phrases, such as:
Age is nothing but a number, don't let this prolong your dreams.
Your past does not limit your future, but expands your knowledge on how to make your future great.
Success is not calculated on the amount of likes you receive on an Instagram picture, but is defined by the amount of internal pride created by your accomplishments.
Find a skill of yours, and go master it!
