One method of staying ahead of rising asset prices and the declining dollar is to think bigger and come up with better plans. As important as financial and business planning is a plan for personal development and self-improvement.

In a lot of cases, a business plan is far bigger than the person with the plan - that is, the dream is bigger than the dreamer.

Before dreaming about the future or marking plans, you need to articulate what you already have going for you - as entrepreneurs do.

If it really was a no-brainer to make it on your own in business there'd be millions of no-brained, harebrained, and otherwise dubiously brained individuals quitting their day jobs and hanging out their own shingles. Nobody would be left to round out the workforce and execute the business plan.

Entrepreneur is someone who has a vision for something and a want to create.

Entrepreneurship is neither a science nor an art. It is a practice.

Once you know what you want and what is important for you to achieve, also define the values associated with it. What is important? That is something a lot of entrepreneurs pass by too quickly. For us, the things that were important were, No. 1, customer success. Nothing is more important to us than making sure every customer is successful in our service.

A vision is something you see and others don't. Some people would say that's a pocket definition of lunacy. But it also defines entrepreneurial spirit.

The future will be owned and operated by the entrepreneurial ly minded.
