Feburary 17th records of varios conversations

Feburary 17th records of varios conversations.

I spoke with my Brother tonight about various ideas that we could act on this month that could produce an income. We are both going to get an outline down of exactly what needs to be done. Then we plan to actually ‘do’ something by next week that will start to generate income. The call was re-invigorating, but not just inspirational, talking with Blaine helps to more clearly define my vision. I hope it does the same for him. We both have many hopes and aspirations. When we speak, it becomes easy to pinpoint the things that keep us from achieving those dreams. It still remains to each of us to actually implement the solutions, but over all the hour long discussion was very helpful.

Today I also had dinner with my father, we had a very uplifting discussion that really helped to lift me spiritually. I always enjoy speaking with him, my time with him is as if I’m being rewarded for some good deed. My mother is out of town, and he spoke of her and how much he loved her, and how beautiful that she is. He told stories about when they were first married. It was great spending time with my Dad. I sometimes think of him as Mufasa, like the father lion in the lion king movie.

There are several articles that I’d like to get written, that help to form the base of the company that I envision building up. I plan to post the ruff drafts in here.


For now, I'm off.

My path to becoming a 'true' Entrepreneur.

My path to becoming a 'true' Entrepreneur.

I read a quote by Guy Kawasaki in a recent Entrepreneur Magazine that really inspired me, or perhaps it was a slap in the face, in that I find that I fall in to the three things that he mentioned that do not properly represent true entrepreneurship.

The quote was this:

“…Doing, not wanting to do, learning to do, or planning to do, is the essence of entrepreneurship.”

With that quote prodding me on, I finally got the start of a web page posted. It was a favor that I’ve been promising to do for some one for a long time. It sounds like a little thing, but I was surprised at how many times I needed to put my mind back on the track of actually doing, instead of engaging in planning to do, or learning to do last night.

It is a start, I’ll soon have a schedule posted that firmly establishes the time to do. During that time, I will not engage in learning to do, or planning to do, or wishful wanting to do. I will be fully engaged in the DOING part.

Becoming a true Entrepreneur.

I’d like to document my path towards becoming a real, or true entrepreneur. I’m a huge believer in the philosophy of ‘return and report’. Meaning that once a task is given or a goal set that there needs to be some sort of a forum established for returning and reporting the results of any activity taken towards the objective.

My objective has been set, and this forum will act as an informal place that I can return and report.

It will also contain some personal musings on life and the state of affairs I supose, but that all fits in becuase I believe that those thoughts will influence my entrepreneurial path.

Thanks for tuning in.
