Can A Book Double Your Profit?
Ever wondered if you can double your profit in just one year? Last year, one book inspired me so much that I doubled my profit margins and grew my business by almost 50%.

Waiting for the perfect time?
Are you the kind of person who waits around for the perfect time to get things done?
Recently, I sat in an airport, two hours before a flight to Florida, and decided to haul out my laptop and get some work done. I was already waiting at the gate for them to call for pre-boarding, typing away at one of those high top tables.

Stop Throwing Money At Your Business Problems
We’ve got to stop throwing money at business problems as our first response. Why? Every business goes through cycles of change and different phases as the business grows – and we need to know where we’re at.
