The Self-Assembled Billionaire: Ingvar Kamprad is Born
While he may not be a household name, the company that Ingvar Kamprad founded certainly is. IKEA is the top home furniture retailer in the world, with over 90,000 employees working in its 200-plus stores, and annual revenues in excess of $10 billion. Indeed, next to the Bible, the annual IKEA catalogue is the most widely distributed publication in the world. From his humble beginnings in the south of Sweden, Kamprad has used his entrepreneurial drive to become the richest man in the world, with a net worth of $28 billion.

Keep Looking Up and Take Back Our Liberties
Christians are just sick and tired of turning the other cheek while our courts strip us of all our rights. Our parents and grandparents taught us to pray before eating, to pray before we go to sleep. Our Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. Now a handful of people and their lawyers are telling us to cease praying.

The New York Times Bestseller List
Cumulative advantage is a powerful side effect of story telling. Get out front, even a little, and you sell more because many people like to invest in a winner. We like to read what other people are reading.

5 Ways To Define Your Success Level
When people think of success, the first thing that comes to mind is having lots of money, money and more money. A few months ago, I wrote an article about LIVING IN A DEAD BODY! This coincides with what is means to be successful. 99.9 and 3/4 of people around the world associate success on only one dimension...financial. However, I can prove to you that there are 5 levels of which one must attain success in order to be considered successful.

Why Do We Not Need Health Care Reform?
Last year I wrote an article about consumer driven health care and I told the story of a woman who paid over $300 per month to insure herself and her teenaged child. She required dental surgery that would take several iterations, but was not able to finish the process because she could not pay the $3000.00 bill. So the world turned and a year later she finds herself working for this very same insurance company, and guess what? She only pays $20 a month for her coverage. There is a saying that came to mind when I heard about that "somebody is buying you wholesale and selling you retail". I mean seriously people, if the insurance company employees can pay only $20 per month for coverage, why are you and I paying upwards of $300.00? What the heck are we paying for exactly?

Top Producer, Top Salesperson or Good Account Manager?
When top management is unable or unwilling to recognize the difference between top producers and their good account managers, mistakenly believing that their good account managers are also good salespeople, the company is probably not experiencing very strong growth.

The Secret - Ancient Scrolls and Their Impact on the Sales Force
Al Turrisi was kind enough to give me a book called the Power of the Kabbalah. Its ancient scrolls originated around 4,000 years ago, inspired The Secretand predate Moses and the Bible! Since this book is not the Kabbalah itself, rather a Cliff Notes version, it tends to read more like a self-help book. It is far more powerful than a self-help book though as it points to a number of rules that will cause a transformation in one's life.

When It Comes To eBay Dont Follow The Herd
While it's true that selling products on eBay can be a quick, low cost way to launch an online business, following the herd by selling the "hot product" of the moment, is not a great idea. To the contrary, chances are you will be stomped in the ground by the herd and left lying in the dust with your unsold inventory in hand.

Right Tool for the Right Job Six Different Ways to Get Your Business Known
If you’re like most people, you started out in your business with an idea of creating something, a dream of making lots of moola with it, and a desire to help people with it. You then toil to make this idea a reality by developing it, testing it, making it, and then… it sits. It’s only then do you realize that… your work hasn’t even begun yet. You have to get the word out about your business. Without knowing how, you start grabbing at tactics like straws in great hope of causing a clamor of customers lining up at your door. Taking action is great. BUT do you know what job really needs to be accomplished and the right tool to achieve it?

3 EASY STEPS TO CREATING WEALTH
The laws that govern prosperity are much the same as the laws that govern mathematics, physics, and other sciences. Emerson described the law of prosperity as “like attracts like”. Scientists describe it as “action and reaction”. Yet others term it the law of supply and demand. The Bible describes the basic law when it speaks of sowing and reaping, giving and receiving. Ponder thinks of it as the law of radiation and attraction: that what you radiate outwards in your thoughts, feelings and words, you attract into your life in all affairs.

Where the Bible teaches us how to improve our cashflow
No cash means stunted business growth, worry and sleepless nights wondering to how you are going to pay your bills. So you're lying there at night, eyes wide open, thinking how you are going to face your creditors the next morning. In this situation, many business owners (religious or not) would plead for some kind of divine intervention. Well believe it or not, one strategy for getting your customers to pay on time is actually sitting there in the bible. You just need to know where to look…

Let Your Light Shine
In the Bible there is a story that warns us not to hide our light under a basket, and it applies in business as much as anywhere else. Turn the lights on! Let the world know who you are, what you can do for them, and how to contact you. In business, that is an every-single-day activity.

Filling the Bus for Your "Good to Great" Odyssey
Your passengers and their placement will determine your success. That said, pursuing a Good To Great philosophy is not for everyone. Many have struggled in their attempts to implement the concepts from that business bible for greatness, Good To Great. This month, we briefly examine one of the book's most challenging concepts: First who, then what. Why is this so challenging? And, what might be done differently to make it work for you? If you're genuinely committed to pursuing greatness, how should you be filling your bus?

Living In The Gap Of Possibility And Purpose: Part 3
Perhaps the Bible says it best -- "Without vision the people perish." But what is vision? In working with thousands of people over the last 16 years as a coach, I've found that vision is a key ingredient of our life purpose. It's what we see to be possible, not only for ourselves, but for our families, our communities, indeed for the world. Without it we perish. I've found helping people reawaken their sense of what's possible so important that it's a key component of preparing for the journey along the Purposeful Path because the more someone taps into this realm of possibility the more inspired they will be to take the actions necessary to make it their current reality.

Leadership and Entrepreneurship
Seth Godin's newest book "Poke the Box" is like an entrepreneur's bible. He encourages all of us to instigate, innovate, reinvigorate. Isn't that what entrepreneurs do? yup, that's what we do all the time! So is that the same as leadership? Sometimes entrepreneurs, the real on the edge pioneers forget to bring along those who can't think as fast, be as visionary, move as intently. That is where a different kind of leadership needs to kick in.

Growth In Sales Can Be Harmful!
“Everyone knows that too few sales are fatal. But very few owner-managers understand that too many sales, made too fast, can kill a small business. Managing the growth in sales is another make-or-break condition of small business success.” Written by Paul Resnik in his book the Small Business Bible.
