Abernathy:<\/b><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201c\u2026\u2026\u2026The big question is how to get ahead as an entrepreneur, as a goal getter from what you typically see and what you\u2019re used to as an commonplace individual. Well, I\u2019m a commonplace individual, in a taboo career and I\u2019M DOING IT! In the words of Maya Angelou \u201cSuccess is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it\u201d You want to sustain in life by creating opportunities BIG OR SMALL. Not waiting for a yes and still moving forward.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cStep forward into growth or back into safety\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">-Abraham Maslow<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Psychologist<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">It is important to be able and willing to action regardless of all trauma, all the No\u2019s, and non-supporters one could headache and pain on. This book is for the average wanting to reach their next level. The ones who feel they aren\u2019t smart enough; the ones who have BIG ideas with no direction; the ones who have vision with no support; the ones who have degrees and are at a dead end; the ones in school just going through the motions; the ones who have talent and feel their voice and willpower is not strong enough; the ones simply wanting more. This book is written by one who understands the emotion and feelings of the one striving for more. Most likely if you are striving, wanting more, you\u2019re an entrepreneur!<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">What is an entrepreneur again?<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Entrepreneurs are innovators, visionaries\u2014generators of new ideas turning into coinage; that\u2019s right\u2014income, revenue, dough, bread, money. Smile for me! This body of work comes from a place of rising from rejection, talents that have been overlooked and misunderstood by second-rate superiors, peers, family, companions and\u2014funny enough\u2014sometimes your cheerers and admirers. Early on, I wanted more, and I knew how to get more through ways that weren\u2019t truly applauded by the usual thinker, by the play-it-safe thinker. I also had yet to learn and perfect my approach; quickly I learned approach is everything!<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">Through those times I became boundless at amplification and clarifying myself not through ideas, not through words, but through action and being able to positively relate to other individuals like myself. Because of rejection and wanting more I learned to create my opportunities, prospects, and big breaks. My success stories really started to take strides when I stopped looking for others to give me a chance and started creating my own chances. These are the traits of an entrepreneur. This book comes from empathy for life\u2019s spins. Taking those spins and putting them on a pedestal to be used as a growth tool versus a crutch tool. It is significant that you know that you have the ability to create your own kind of success. This book is essential maintenance to cheer on and coach yourself to your own successes to be able to take a talent, skill, passion, desire, product, and or business and turn it to prize.
