It's opportunity time.

It's the best time to make a business, so they say. Not in the media however.
Aren't you sometimes overwhelmed with all the bad news, doom and gloom?

There is a way out.
Switch off the news channel.

And I don't mean, try to hide from reality.
I mean, face the reality. It is how it is, what will you do about that?
Main stream media spin the news.
You've got to look around and see what's going on in your life.

There are smart guys who actually are making it. It's difficult, but it's doable.

Many great fortunes were started in a recession time. Many more fortunes will be build in this recession.

Dad, payroll - how does it work?

"Dad, payroll - how does it work?"
I'm just reading the first chapter of Christine Comaford-Lynch's book "Rules for Renegades" the New York Times bestseller.

Now, you've got to have a guts! I mean, really you've got to have a guts to do it. And a speed is of the essence too.

In fact you've got to take action and you've got to take action fast. It does not matter that you don't have all the information. Or for that reason, it does not matter that you don't have information at all.

Christine Comaford volunteered to take on 300 contractors from Microsoft and run their payrolls through her company. But, she did not have the company yet. In fact, she didn't know much about payroll if anything at all. That's why she called her Dad :)

You've got to have guts to be entrepreneur. And you've got to trust your guts!

J.R. Simplot, potato king.

"Self-made billionaire J.R. Simplot was the quintessential entrepreneur." That's how Forbes starts with the news about his death.

J.R. Simplot was a true entrepreneur. It seems that he had it in his blood. I don't know about it? It seems to me that his success was more down to his determination, his drive, his willingness to do whatever it takes. Starting with nothing he proceeded to build an empire.

Young entrepreneur left home at the age of 14. He wanted to be independent and he was confident that he will make it on his own. J.R. Simplot made whatever it took to succeed. With only $20 in his pocket he made some smart deals, reinvested money into raising hogs and then got into growing potato. Eventually he made it big first supplying the army during WWII and then striking a deal with McDonalds founder Ray Kroc.

How did it all happened? He set off with a burning desire and used every opportunity that came his way.

What is amazing about J.R. Simplot is that he made it not only in such a "simple business" like growing potatoes, but he is also behind the development of the high technology company. He was an early investor into Micron Technology.

J.R.Simplot was a big thinker, he made it big. And he was a man of the action. Was he lucky? As they say: the more action I take, the luckier I am.

It's all about business, it's all about making money.

Gay Kawasaki, here is the honest venture capitalist.

Gay Kawasaki is down to earth, honest guy. And he is venture capitalist!
Here is an interview with him.
The Power of 'No Bull Shiitake'.

Guy Kawasaki is talking about business, life and other stuff.
He reveals how the successful companies are born. He says: most of the time unproven teams, with an unproven technology in an unproven market make a big breakthrough and big success.

In the end he is painfully honest when he tells a story how he passed the chance to become CEO of the Yahoo. And that was at the very beginning. According to his calculations he passed roughly 2 billion dollars.

Take a stupid ride!

John D. Rockefeller, my champion.

I love John D. Rockefeller, he is the best.
I often wonder what would JD do in this or that situation.

Here is the way of entrepreneur rise.
Rise from a simple bookkeeper, through commodity trader to ... the industrialist.
He managed to dominate huge sector of the economy.
How did he do it?
Was he better, smarter?
He simply was systematic, he was disciplined, determined.

I wonder what would he do nowadays in the era of the Internet?
Would he be blogging, setting up some websites, tying to make a little cash in the world of affiliate marketing?

I don't think so.
J.D. Rockefeller was the Big Thinker long before Donald Trump invented the phrase.
What would he do?
Would he own Google today?
If not, I'm sure he would find a way to dominate anyway.

Entrepreneurs are made in tough times.

Entrepreneurs are made in though times. They are innovators looking for a new ways of doing things. They search for solutions to problems.
That's right solutions to problems, real problems.

Here is an inspiration:

Jim Rohn, on Capitalism.

How it all starts?
It all starts with some little money, and time, and effort.
