I typically don't give people this intimate amount of detail because some may get angry.  But is imperative that people learn how to become entrepreneurs before it is too late...even if you don't want to right now. What I want to convey during on the show is some people need to know that owning a business is more about attitude than anything else.  It's not really about products. Owning a business involves self-management, self-esteem and how YOU SEE YOURSELF if you were look at you as a third party. When you look in the mirror, what do you see? What do you regularly say to yourself?  Your thoughts? Your personal assessment of yourself? It's no secret that I am strongly urging that all Americans start a business in January 2013. 00:38:00The Business Consultantnoeconomics,small business,emotion,success,capitalismThis show provides the inside scoop about deciding to start a business.

This rejection show will not be from a clinical or organic viewpoint, but will examine the issue from the streets, where everyone is. We will give some examples of how the fear of rejection has held people back from achieving goals and dreams.  The focus will be from a business owner's perspective and try to detail how the fear of rejection has cost Americans billions of dollars of loss compensation and missed opportunity, has torn up families, and has created income gaps among groups of Americans. In fact, you might say that groups of people in America who complain about gaps in education, wealth, and healthcare are really displaying acute symptoms of not being able to cope with rejection. In this current economy, rejection affects how much money you can make, what jobs you can get, and how you might feel about those who are more successful in life. Finally, we will talk about ways to overcome rejection in your business whether you have a traditional business, a direct sales business, or contemplating starting a business. The On-Air show will last 30 minutes, but will be continue to 45 minutes.  The last 15 minutes can be heard after the live broadcast. 00:36:00The Business Consultantnomarketing,occupy,economics,capitalism,businessThis show is about rejection and how it impact business owners, direct salespeople, employees, and everyday people.
