Entrepreneurs
Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask.
Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.

Gianni Versace & The Art of Being You
Gianni Versace
On each person's shoulders is the freedom to have his or her own style. In fashion, like life, you have to think. I promise you, the key is in your head--your imagination and your capacity to learn. The future is in all of us and the leap of faith can fulfill your wildest dreams.

“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive. Then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. ”

The Four Truths of the Storyteller
Peter Guber
I'm in the business of creating compelling stories. As a filmmaker, I need to understand how stories touch audiences - why one story is an instantly appealing box office success while another fails miserably to connect. I've been fortunate enough to work with some of the world's most talented storytellers - gifted directors, novelists, screenwriters, actors, and other producers - and from them I've gleaned insights into the alchemy of great stories. Make no mistake, a hit movie is still an elusive target, and I've had my share of flops. But experience has at least provided me with a clear sense of the essential elements of a story and how to tap into its power.

This got me to thinking about whether marketers might need to take a different approach to be more effective in reaching introverts..... More

For me, a mixture of freedom and structure works best.....Figuring out what schedule works for you will make your life a joy or a drudgery. If you’re too committed every hour of the day, you won’t have time for creativity. If you’re not committed enough...More
The Wealthy Bag Lady: How To Use Your Feminine Side To Succeed In Business
Dominick A. Miserandino interviews Linda Hollander
What gave you the idea to start your book? Well, I had been an entrepreneur for 20 years and basically, I couldn't find a book that spoke to me as a woman entrepreneur. They were all written from a generic point of view, or a male point of view. And women have these issues and challenges as entrepreneurs and business women, so I thought there needed to be a book out there that addressed these issues and concerns. And really one of the things that I address in my book is femininity as a base of power rather than a weakness.....More
