What would the perfect business day look like?
Most days small business owners are juggling all the stuff that comes at them all day, either planned or self-inflicted, with a somewhat unsystematic, gut level kind of approach. I know I do that - sometimes it works, sometimes it really, really doesn’t work.

From Founder to Leader – Building a Company From an Idea
“Right now it's only a notion, but I think I can get the money to make it into a concept, and later turn it into an idea.” -- Woody Allen Much has changed since Woody Allen came up with this line in 1977 – but the basic premise remains – any entrepreneur has the ability to bring an idea to fruition with the right backing.
