This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world that we live in today favors the person who organizes and operates a business, and takes on greater than normal financial risks to do so. That person is the entrepreneur. The average worker holds ten different jobs before age forty, and this number is projected to grow. If you’re in your twenties and thirties, you may forge a second or third career as an entrepreneur; and if you’re in your forties, fifties, or beyond, you will decidedly favor the idea of starting and owning your own business. In fact, fifty-two percent of all small businesses are home-based, and many of those are started and run by people in their mid-career. So whether you are early in your career or are in mid-career, whether you have ambitions to run a larger business or a very small business, and whether you start a business because it’s your desire or you’re forced to by automation and layoffs, entrepreneurship is more likely than ever to be a part of your future. Let Brian Tracy, one of the world’s foremost authorities on the subject, introduce you to 6 Essentials To Start & Succeed in Your Own Business, and expose you to the most innovative, current—and most importantly—proven ideas on how to become successful. Use your knowledge of The 6 Essentials to race ahead of the competition and take advantage of all of the modern options readily available to you . . . and create a busi¬ness that is successful and sustainable for the long term.
