As small business people and baby boomers, we are all concerned about the future of healthcare (or rather, healthcare costs and insurance) in the U.S.
Miki Saxon has written a good post about this on her Leadership Turn blog. She is going to be posting comments from business people and people in the health […]
I was getting my haircut on Friday and the subject of successful people came up. My guy cuts the hair for a number of financially successfully people and spouses around the area. We both agreed that the common denominator with all these financially successful people was the amount of time they put into their work. […]
Ever have one of those days in your business? It seems like everything is going wrong. An employee quits, a major piece of equipment breaks, and there is a storm (the snow kind) on the horizon.
We here at b5media had a crisis this past week - the systems kind, involving the servers that […]
Ok, I admit it. I enjoy watching the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show every year. This year’s show starts Monday (Feb. 11 and 12, 2008). I’m partial to Shelties, because I have had several; they are really great dogs.
This caused me to think about the “you can’t teach an old dog new […]
Entrepreneurs and innovators are not necessarily the same. I’ve been both. I’ve even tried to do both at the same time. They are very different things and require different resources and skill sets.
Innovators require a high tolerance for failure. To a great degree innovation is a trial and error process. I always think of Apples […]
I almost forgot - the other thing my CPA said both my husband and I need is a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care. it must be “durable,” so it can continue if you can’t make decisions for yourself. And you also need a living will. And you may also want […]
I went to a new CPA to give him my business taxes, and he stopped me cold with this question: Do you and your husband have wills? When I answered “no” he said, “Do you know what happens when you die without a will?” Ouch. I do know, and it’s not pretty. Dying without a will […]
As any baby boomer in business knows, it is smart to think about what to do with your business “at the end.” What will you do when the day comes when you can’t manage your business any more? Now, I know lots of business owners running successful businesses into their 70s, 80s, even […]
As a small business person your health is vital to the success of your business. I’ve beat this horse before, but the health of your teeth is now understood to be more important than ever before.
One of the big questions on longevity calculators is about flossing. Seems the germs that cause plaque on teeth do […]
Ouch! That pun was about as bad as they get, but I couldn’t resist.
