A Home Based Business Owner is like a surfer in the ocean setting up for the next big wave. A surfer casts their vision along the horizon looking for hints of swelling, because they know that swells become waves, and the bigger the swelling the bigger the wave. That mentality is what sets the Business Owner aside from the Employee. An Employee does not look for the swells they simply react to the waves that hit them.
With that said, I'd like to share an audio interview with Robert Kiyosaki talking about predictions that he made in the past in regards to real estate market collapse in areas around the world.
This interview is not just about real estate but more about being prepared for rough waters and being able to see that swell ahead of time in order to position yourself for success. Your business depends on you being prepared for ANY challenges that may come ahead.
Way back in my high school years, my mentor once told me "Kevin, you need to know your 5 P's: Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance" he would always ask me to recite my 5 P's and I always got it wrong "Proper Prevents Performance...?" or "Prepare Poor Performance...?" but thanks to learning those "5P's" it has made me a stronger person. I'd like to pass this on to you.
