The Boss of You

Lately it seems like our lit­tle web­site is grow­ing big­ger by the day. The lat­est addi­tion is a sam­ple chap­ter: You can now down­load a PDF ver­sion of the Table of Con­tents, Intro­duc­tion and first chap­ter, all totally free! The first chap­ter, “Define Your Vision,” guides you through three key exer­cises: Defin­ing your busi­ness goals, estab­lish­ing your per­sonal mea­sures of suc­cess, and iden­ti­fy­ing your skills, strengths, and passions.

Every entre­pre­neur will have dif­fer­ent responses to these exer­cises: Where one per­son may be moti­vated by a desire for flex­i­ble work hours, another will be dri­ven by her pas­sion for a par­tic­u­lar type of work, or by the sim­ple ambi­tion to call the shots. Under­stand­ing your moti­va­tions and val­ues is crit­i­cal ground­work for every busi­ness owner, because it’s only when your per­sonal vision is attained that you’ll feel truly successful.

We hope you enjoy this sneak peek at our baby — and once you’ve had a look, please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!
