Dave Prouhet, Editor of businessadvicedaily.com reveals his simply successful secrets :

- 7) Analyze to Understand, then Act
- 10) Do the Unexpected
Wanda Grindstaff ( Creating Abundant Lifestyles) in What we can learn from Don Imus explains:
As a student of personal development, I know where I am going and what it will take to get there. My goal is enormous so my integrity must be enormous. My goal is powerful, so my thoughts must be powerful, my dream is vivid so my direction must be vivid. These do not include negative emotion.
Delegation, one of the key point of GTD is not something you want to do lightly. SpiKe has a few tips in How to delegate, it all starts with:
Explain the tasks clearly and precisely. You are the one who knows exactly what the job involves, they don’t. It’s up to you to transfer that information thoroughly.
and ends with:
Give recognition! The key is to be positive and when criticism is required be constructive with it. Let them know where things are going wrong and discuss together how it can be rectified
Need to find ways to advertize for free: try Free Classified ads.
Chris, at Lead Optimize, tells us how tweaking the color of the links on a site more than quadrupled the number of leads a site he had been working on could generate: The sales lead are in the details.
And finally, 3 business lessons. First from ancient Sparta: 4 entrepreunerial lessons from 300, second from Cortez: should you burn your ships, and last, Dane Carlson from business-opportunities.biz provides 20 things not to do before starting a business. My top 3:

Great carnival with excellent links. Everyone should read the “simply successful secrets” as they look something like the ten commandments for a happy life.
All the best, Chris
Dave, Chris, thank you for the kind words.
Dave, I have not commented on Loral’s work or books yet, and will check it out !
Hi there.
Some really helpful information here. I’m sorry for beeing a little off-topic, but I want to ask you about the design of this site. Did you make this template yourself or did you get it from any templates website? Looks pretty cool for me. I use Joomla, but wants something better.
Peter, you can find more information on this theme in this post: http://sidebusiness.biz/2006/05/01/css-reboot/
For Joomla themes, I recommend you take a look at http://www.rockettheme.com/ or http://yootheme.com/
They both have really stunning themes for a reasonable price.
