Overview

"By far the most fundamental change we face in the coming years, and decades, is the ability to obtain and maintain gainful employment for ourselves and our families. Nearly any study or statistics pronounces the age of organizations, in the era of employees, as rapidly ceasing to exist. Over 99% of all U.S. companies are small businesses, and nearly 80% of small businesses have no employees at all. Today, and for the foreseeable future, people are becoming less of an ""employee"" and more of an ""owner,"" forcing everyone to ""chart their own path."" This fundamentally alters the concept of work, the notion of play, and the reality of life, destabilizing many and destroying others. Yet in the age of peril, we find an era of promise, one where the successful will be those who think of the impossible yet achieve the possible, who have an imagination that is unrivaled yet a determination that is unwavering, and who believe that profits are good but what you do with them are better. More than anything, though, the successful are those who build their own business, who make it on their own... depending on no one and relying on but a few. Be that person, and your future is secure."
