Your number one investment
Every one has ideas, inventions, and dreams but only a few people ever make any money from their thoughts. Although people generate millions of them each year, most of these ideas do not make money. Why? Because most people are not willing to put their ideas into practice nor take the time to follow-through with the planning, design and implementation necessary for success and eventually money. Your ideas are your number one investment; a never-ending reservoir of creative wealth and the building blocks of any business.REMEMBER: YOUR THOUGHTS ARE YOUR WEALTH.

Lesson #5: Do Well by Doing Good

Percy's Gang of 125: How Curved Is the Earth??? It's A Small World, After All ???
Percy Barnevik was Europe's exemplar businessman for much of the '80s and '90s. He woke up a sleepy ABB Asea Brown Boveri big time—and made about as many notable management inventions as Jack Welch along the way. I sang his praises at length in my 1992 book, Liberation Management. In particular, Barnevik's ABB was peerless when it came to internationalization and managing very far-flung ventures. Along the way, as I recall, he surprised many of us by asserting that among his cast of hundreds of thousands, with managers numbering in the tens of thousands, he really only needed about 125 true internationalists!
