The Greatest Show on Earth: Barnum Soars to the Top
In 1836, Barnum met Joice Heth, a woman who would change the course of his life forever. Heth was blind and almost completely paralyzed, but she could still speak, and what she was saying sparked an idea in Barnum. Heth claimed to be the 161 year old former nurse of George Washington. Barnum was intrigued both by her story and by the possibilities presented therein. If Heth could catch his attention, how many others would be lured in by this oddity as well?

The Visionary Entrepreneur
Eighty percent of all new businesses fail in their first five years. The reason is that most people who start their own business never have a vision or a clear picture of what their business will look like or how it will work. To be successful your business must function like a machine.
Lesson #1: Defy The Odds
“As a young black man, I don't want to pull the race card, but it certainly seems like the odds were against me,” says Combs. “Eighty percent of my friends are dead or in jail. It’s just something I have to live with.”
Coco Chanel Perfume
In 1924, legendary fashion icon Coco Chanel remarked, “I want to give women an artificial perfume. Yes, I really do mean artificial, like a dress, something that has been made. I don’t want any rose or lily of the valley; I want a perfume that is a composition.” Today, eighty-three years after the first launch of Chanel No. 5, Coco Chanel perfume remains as popular as ever and indeed, one of the best known brands in the world.

2.0 The economic context: Support for Growth-oriented Women Entrepreneurs in Tanzania, 2005
Tanzania has a population of just over 37 million, a GDP of US$22 billion, and GDP per capita of US$610.6 An estimated 51 per cent of the population lives below the poverty line. Eighty per cent of the country’s poor population live in rural areas, depending on subsistence agriculture and unable to participate in broader markets. Poor roads, exorbitantly expensive utilities and prohibitive policies have compounded this problem, significantly impeding the growth of the economy.7 Agriculture, the mainstay of the economy, is almost 50 per cent of GDP, and small-scale peasant farmers, who make up 70 per cent of the population, carry out over 80 per cent of agricultural activities. About 30 per cent of the population over 15 years of age is illiterate (UDEC, 2002).
What Are The Results of A Recent Poll?
In a recent poll eighty-eight percent of the people surveyed reported that they would rather win a travel incentive then a cash incentive. One possible reason for this is that once money is spent (normally it is used to pay outstanding bills) it’s gone. A trip is something that the whole family can enjoy. The stories of a memorable trip are stories that get told years later at family gatherings.

How To Determine What You Want In Life
What do you really want in life? Most people don't discover what they want in life until it's time to die - and that's a shame. Most people spend the best years of their lives watching television or doing things they dislike. An author described humanity by saying, "Most people die at twenty and are buried at eighty." Are you one of the living zombies?

Don't Go Into The Water - Yet
This July's edition of the journal "Medicine, Science and the Law" reported findings that might interest you if you're a swimmer. It's a little morbid: the researchers basically conducted a review of 536 autopsies, and they found that nearly eighty percent of those who'd drowned accidentally did have visible stomach contents.
