 Solid book with a lot to offer November 15, 2008
i went on a buying spree of books all about trying to figure out what to do for work, and this one is by far the best one I had come upon out of about 6. I always read wiht a highlighter or pen in hand in case there is anything that I want to remember for future readings.
It was annoying because every other page had something that jumped off the page and made sense in my trying to figure things out. I used my highlighter more on this book than any book I have ever read. There is a lot of good stuff in here. Definitely recommend.
Searching for the answers October 3, 2008
It's a fairly simplified exploration of suggested ideas. I was searching for something deeper , the "Aha," factor.

Think outside the box July 16, 2008

I attended a seminar that the author of this book, Barbara Winter, gave a couple of years ago. It was an early morning class on the weekend, but from the moment it started, I was wide awake. Similarly, this book held my attention from the moment I opened it. Ms Winter has a lot of useful, practical advice on how to start your own business. But she isn't talking about a traditional, get-an-SBA-loan-type of endeavour, which in itself is limiting. Who wants their dreams dashed simply because their idea of a business doesn't fit into the lender's idea of a viable business? No, save your money and think creatively. That's the beauty of her message. A business can be started with the money you already have in your pocket, in your own home. The author teaches you how to think outside the box, creating what she calls, "multiple profit centers," each of which will bring in money. What's so great about this approach is that you don't end up putting all your eggs in one basket. Your income will come from several, albeit related, sources that you've created.
Ms. Winter obviously knows of what she speaks, and her enthusiasm rubs off on you. She breaks things down into smaller, doable parts, so that you'll get off your rump and start doing something instead of just dreaming of doing something. Forget about all that traditional wisdom about needing to get a loan to start a business as the only way to become your own boss. With this book, you will never look at working for yourself the same way ever again!
