Mostly, I take daily baby steps toward all my long-term goals. Much like the stories I pen, the songs I compose, and the businesses I run, I am always a work in progress.

A good friend of mine helps me with marketing now and then. He's smart, a good salesman, has a good business sense, and has a decent chunk of money set aside. He's also currently unemployed. So it crossed my mind to wonder why he doesn't start up his own business. I think the answer is that he doesn't have a product to sell, at least not one that he's passionate about. We (and by "we," I mean all 19 MTMS employees) are passionate about our product.

Are you keeping a running list? You, too, can start your own successful business if you have the right ingredients: Passion, business sense, leadership, planning skills, organization, and, of course, capital. What's your passion? What business would you open if you had all the right ingredients?
