Are Successful Entrepreneurs Often Bi-Polar?

In another post, we discussed a study that showed that many CEOs of large companies were sociopaths. Interestingly enough, since we talked about that, I’ve watched for evidence.

What Stops You is Not What You Think

It’s almost been a year since a partnership dissolution pushed me out of my safe, secure little shell. In the meantime, our family has moved to the beach and at times, it has felt like we’re surviving more than thriving, but at least we’re not diving. LOL The struggle, like most struggles, has been [...]

I’d like to have something that can [...]

Link Requests

In the past 3 days, I’ve gotten 3 requests to exchange links from websites I’ve never heard of. In each case, they’ve found this blog somehow while purusing the Internet. I’m looking at each example closely and making sure it will work for me. So far, I think I’ll do 2 of the 3. The [...]

Long Tail vs. Focus

A friend of mine asked me a question a few days that keeps rattling around in my brain. I’ve talked on this blog and at the First Class Lounge Forum at TaxLoopholes about my million dollar mistake. Basically, I got caught up in the glamour of writing a book and doing interviews, that I let [...]
