Author Information

Hi, my name is Ella Rucker and I got over myself to live The Beauty Of MY Ugly Start. Five years ago I lost my job, my home, my car. It didn't feel like the time to start a totally new career, but I had an idea. I started a writing career as a welfare mom and last year I was a speaker at Walt Disney World! What would have happened if I waited until I had all the ""right"" tools to become a writer; an office, a computer, a reputation as a blogger or even the faintest idea on how to blog? I would have delayed my start and probably be living a life of mediocrity. I don't want that to happen to you! What are you sure you could do ""if only""? How much longer can you wait for your great idea to get out there? I say don't wait another minute! There is beauty in an ugly start and you have to get over yourself and take your idea, your product, your service, your unique gift to the market TODAY! *** Ella Rucker is an entrepreneur's best resource for information, networks, and mentorship.
