For those of you who are thinking of going into business but have not yet decided what business to get into, I recently came across this website of millionaire entrepreneur Steve Little.
His message is not about optimizing your existing business, but how to actually FIND a business
that's perfect for you...
He knows what he is talking about because he has done it.
And he's made what he knows available for you on his video blog.

On there he is talking about entrepreneurship and how "soon to be" entrepreneurs should go about finding a business to start.
He has systematically broken down why most new businesses fail and what he found was it wasn't how they were doing business, but actually that they were in the wrong business to start with.
After this discovery, he made it his mission to to create a step by step formula for finding a business that is perfectly matched to you and your entrepreneurial DNA...
and he is giving it away right now on his blog.
Go check it out and let me know what you think.

PS. It doesn't matter if you're looking to start a business right now or not, or even if you already have a business (especially if you're not getting ahead much in it) I think you've got to hear what he has
to say.

Kung kaya ng iba, ipagawa mo sa kanila |

Recently I was watching TV and I saw Ai-ai delas Alas in the trailer of her latest movie as she said these words "Kung kaya ng iba, ipagawa mo sa kanila." Later on I realized that it was part of series of supposed to be funny mangling of common Pinoy sayings, the original target of the joke being "Kung kaya ng iba, kaya ko rin!"
I was about to dismiss it as just another of Ai-ai's funny antics when I recognized that there is a nugget of wisdom in what she was saying. Especially when taken from an entrepreneurial context, this is perhaps one of the most common travails of mom-and-pop enterprises who fail to cross over to bigger business. At the point when they are about to expand, there is a tendency to freeze out of a feeling that if they will not be the ones to do it, it will not be done properly at all. Or worse, whatever others can do, they can do better.
"Kung kaya ng iba, ipagawa mo sa kanila."
That's how Henry Sy built his SM empire. That's how business empires are built.
Just a thought.
