Lesson # 5: Entrepreneurship Cannot Be Taught
“I often get asked to talk about entrepreneurship – even by hallowed institutions like Harvard and Stanford – but I’m not all convinced it is a subject you can teach,” says Roddick. “How do you teach obsession, because more often than not it’s obsessions that drives an entrepreneur’s vision? Why would you march to a different drumbeat if you are instinctively part of the crowd?”

It IS a Popularity Contest
Business and high school actually have one very important thing in common. Thinking back on my high school days, I remember the start of the school year and when elections for class president were about to begin. . .
Origins of NLP
Back in the 70's NLP started as a meta-model, or a model for making and changing other models. The NLP meta-model focuses on verbal models, and how language both shapes and reflects human thought. The two explained their meta model in The Structure of Magic. They first used the meta-model to find how highly successful therapists like Milton Erickson and Virginia Satir managed to help so many people. They wanted to know: What language and behavioral patterns did these therapists have? In Erickson's case, how did he consistently produce deep hypnotic trances? What happened in the client's mind as they changed?

Manage Your Cash Flow And Share Business Success Benefits
Advice For Startups - Manage your cash flow. You can’t spend a lot at the beginning. I was under a mountain of MBA debt coming out of school. I didn’t have the money to pay people top dollar so I used an innovative compensation structure. We had small salaries and large pay-for-performance incentives. If we didn’t sell any work, we didn’t get paid. That was a model that helped the business get off the ground. We offered much lower salaries with a lot of upside potential. With this mode we attracted people who were entrepreneurial. We’re constantly looking to innovate and be entrepreneurs – so this compensation model fits our culture perfectly.
Place Those Small Bets, Quickly!
Nothing goes so well with that first cup of coffee as having your biases confirmed! In yesterday's Wall Street Journal ("In Search of Growth Leaders"), University of Virginia/Darden Graduate School of Business Prof Sean Carr, et al., lay out a growth model.

From Go Fast Kids to Calm Kids
Making that transition from holiday mode to classroom. How excited do kids get with the start of school approaching? Getting kids to go from the freedom of school holidays to move to that place of being settled and ready for school can be a challenge for some parents. Many children now days are identified as being ADD and ADHD I call these kids “go fasts” and the transition from holidays to school can be a bit more of a challenge for these kids. Being a “go fast” kid is fine, they are full of excitement and life, but it does not always suite the classroom environment. So how do you handle the transition time as they move into the structures of a new school year and a classroom environment?
Become a Student Of Success And Change Everything
I heard this term long after I was a student of the learning environment known as school. When I was in school I never had good grades and becoming a success seemed to be something that was left for others. In school we are all graded on the merits of the people who excel at learning. This article is about how anyone from all walks of life can change their life to be anything that they want it to be. Its about how, after many years of believing that I had to settle for what life dealt me by not being good in school was something I could change. I heard that to change your life you had to change the way you think.

Internet Business Model
Compared to the traditional business model, the internet business model is in many ways more powerful and absolutely more accessible to anyone. Entrepreneurs from all walks of life are successfully implementing this business model.
Man Up for Success
Successful people commit to taking personal responsibility for their life and career. It's never too late to do so. Antonio Rocha was 18 years old and about to graduate from high school -- but he couldn't read. He committed to taking personal responsibility for his life when he pressured the New York City school board into giving him a private tutor to help him learn to read. He is a role model for all of us. He knew that he didn't have the skills to survive in the world of work, and he did what he needed to do to get them. If you want to succeed in your life and career, you need to do the same. Commit to taking personal responsibility for your success.

Business Model vs Business Plan
A business model is not a business plan and a business plan is not a business model. Your business plan documents how you will execute your business model. Your business model is your proprietary methodology used to acquire service and retain your customers.
