If you have limited funds available for startup costs, or do not have a background in business management or startups, I highly recommend you explore the multi-level marketing business opportunities first.

I like to take a no-holds-barred approach to business. That means when I see an opportunity, and decide it offers a low risk and high payoff potential, I jump in. I've been burned a few times in my over-zealousness, but an occasional failure is part of the game. Over the years I've learned you either play the game, and accept the risks (it helps to understand the risks going in), or you don't play. In my opinion, life is too short to waste time on the sidelines. I rode the bench in high school football and hated every minute of it. The publication you now hold is an expression of my "play the game" business philosophy. Be a player, not a spectator.

Most of what I've learned about business I learned on the streets, playing the game, getting knocked down a few times, and getting back up in time for the next play.

Throughout the trials and joys of business ownership, I have learned there is one constant in life: nothing stays the same. Change is everywhere. Be flexible. Treat every circumstance as a learning opportunity, and never rest on yesterday's successes; for tomorrow is another day.

In the end, don't let the words "he/she had the potential to achieve great things" be a part of your epitaph. The words "had" and "potential" are clues to a life full of promise never realized. Woody Allen once said, "eighty percent of success is showing up." You have to show up. You have to be willing to take the plunge. You have to do the things other people refuse to do. You have to persevere in the face of adversity. And, you have to believe in yourself, no matter what others may say and think about you. Fortunately, through the sheer beauty of the network marketing concept, you can take this plunge into the business world with minimal financial risk.
