3 Ways You Can Get Your Business Idea Going Quickly

I recently visited my old job to see if some of my ex-coworkers were still working in the office.  To my surprise, I saw that several of them were still working for the company.  Many of them were happy and content with their job.  However, many others spent time asking me about my business and how they can start their own. In fact, this has been happening more frequently with individuals that I meet that have a full-time job.  This is probably due to the fact that entrepreneurship has increased so much over the years.  More people are starting businesses from...

I can remember when I first decided to write The Quick Confidence Guide.  It was about 5 years ago and Potential 2 Success was a few years old and was getting tens of thousands of visitors from all over the world.  For some reason, my email box began to fill with questions from readers asking about how to increase their confidence.

If you've been following this blog for a while, you know that I've been working in the financial industry while running my businesses part-time.  But earlier this year, I decided to take the leap and become a full-time entrepreneur.

Why I've Never Written an Article About Money on This Blog

Is it because I'm poor? Is it because I hate money? Is it because I use the bartering system?   None of the above. Although, a bartering system does sound pretty cool. If you've been reading my blog for some time, you've seen that I've written about a lot of things related to personal development. Some of the most popular being about developing mental toughness, waking up at 3 am, improving communication, etc. But one topic that seems to be absent is an article about money.
