VISION


In case you think this is going to be one of those long seminar like lectures where one person assumes to know it all and assaults your ears with endless tirades of what he calls speech, let me be clear: this is not. This is just a short article that seeks to get straight to the point.

So you want to do business. OK that's fine but why? You want to be rich? Like Donald Trump and Bill Gates? You want to be famous like Oprah? You want to be able to buy all the things you never had? I think you should listen to Travie"s billionaire track. Whatever the ,motivating factors, I think it is cool. But what are you going to do? So far as the police are not going to come after you if you keep doing it, I am game.

That is what I call a vision. Know what you are doing and why you are doing it. NOT just that but be very clear about it. I want to sell shoes because I want to make enough money to buy myself a car. In my brand of business, that is vision.

And that sure is good enough. At least for now. ADIEU.
