While this sounds like solid advice, this fixed idea fails to include the importance of   being flexible or open-minded, especially while building and maintaining a business. Just as the seasons change, so does a business and the social climate. Flexibility allows for growth. Maturity allows for change.

Always Protect Your Behind

  When young people leave home for the first time, life can seem daunting or overwhelming. Becoming an active member of society today is fraught with so many rules and a lot of fine print. Most of our youth are faced with not having been taught so many of the skills necessary to move swiftly and successfully into the adult world.  This book presents some of the common pitfalls experienced by so many on the road to becoming independent.

Throughout my hundreds of conversations with adults of all ages, I discovered so many identical descriptions of problematic situations each of them had encountered. These brave people provided valuable insight into some of the knowledge and coping skills that helped them through some of those unfamiliar and often costly experiences.  Topics included in this life guide are the ones that were mentioned most fr...
