Business Ownership: A Conversation with Yourself or Your Partners
A critical aspect of business strategy and survival is the matter of ownership. Many people who go into business do so because they have had enough of not being in charge and in full control of their fortunes. Hence ownership provides an opportunity to take full responsibility.

This Too Will Pass
Many of us would have heard people making this statement as they go through their worldly trials or witness another person enduring theirs. There is a tendency to give this kind of advice on a superficial level. That is, people say it and do not themselves grasp the power behind the words – the full impact.

Are You a Serial Student?
Most business training is a waste of time- almost! It won’t appear that way for the most part but after you have gone through the various lectures, seminars, workshops, E-zenes, webinars, teleseminars, books, and more, you will start to recognize a disconnect between what you think you want to achieve and what you have achieved.

7 Things that Lead to a Successful Business
Ok, so we all need a successful business and we all try to get that bit of magic that puts us ahead. But, are there things that you can point out that will pin down success definitively? Many people claim to have the answers and some even claim uniqueness in their abilities. For example, they will assume that all you need is a well-organized “sales funnel” and all will be well. Yet, some businesses successful at sales do not have good receivables management. Or, some overreach to sell and overstretch the firm’s resources leading to debilitating cash flow situations.

What is your life's purpose?
The idea of “purpose” takes on several meanings. It is hardly considered without some material sense of the forms, values, culture, etc., with which we have identified. I spent a long time trying to figure out what is my purpose because so many teachings explains it in the context of what you do in a career, a field of study, or a task related to something, somewhere or someone. Not to mention an amount of money that we should accumulate!

Success and Suffering
Amy Winehouse “The more spiritually ignorant you are, the more you suffer” – Eckhart Tolle. Singer Amy Winehouse is dead at age 27. This brought to the fore an observation by a local newspaper that she is the latest member of the “27 club”; that is, another musician who has died at age 27 and one of those struggling to cope with fame. The group includes such people like Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Brian Jones. The famous Michael Jackson lived well beyond 27 years but one did not need to be a friend to disce a great deal of suffering in him.

Purpose, Success and Suffering
Does success always bring happiness? The last two times I examined aspects of “purpose”, “success” and “suffering”. Now I will examine these from the angle of whether your life is in sync with the universe and if you are at peace. In reference to Amy Winehouse, I suspect she was not at peace. Even at the relatively tender age of 27, she was successful, a star, but not at peace. In fact there are indications of a sad depression, and ultimately, a sad story. It seemed that the thrills of drugs could not work. Why do we suffer?

What is Business Coaching?
Coaching is not just for sports and athletes. Businesses can save themselves much headache by their owners / operators seeking coaching. In fact, with the challenges I have had to endure in developing businesses, I would not venture in again without coaching, even with considerable experience.

Why I Decide to be a Business Coach
After writing the best seller, The Small Business Survival Guide – Insights into the First Two Years, I assessed peoples’ response to the book and its contents and timing. I recognized that many people were writing on the subject of entrepreneurship and small business challenges but they were mainly focused on textbook stuff. These included overwhelming conce s were about such things as financing, interest rates and the economy. But small business survival and development are about the small business operators themselves!
