From Rags to Riches

I'm not in the business of minding my own business.

I tend to stick my nose where it least belongs. This is a problem that I would fix, but it seems as though my nose is without a home. Abandoned as it may be, it appears as though it's only friend is it's acute sense of smell. A sort of super-sensory ability to sniff out situations of which it has no business being involved in. An olfactory omen, both transient and unwelcome.

So where does this leave me? Well, up until recently it has resulted in a lot of lost time. I tend to invest in baskets which no sane individual would dare place a single egg in, let alone the dozens which I have broken due to my lack of foresight. You could make enough omelets to feed an entire Denny's with the time that I've wasted in the past.

One thing you learn in business school is that business is never personal. Of course, this refers to the term business in the economic sense. What they fail to teach you, is that when it comes to the other definition attached to this word, there isn't getting much more personal. Being as how one's "business" is that which they concern themselves with, I would suggest that if it is not personal, then it is inevitably doomed to fail.

So, where am I going with this? All this talk of noses, and eggs, and business just sounds like a big clusterfuck of some kid feeling sorry for himself, right? Wrong. Up until this point I may have sounded pessimistic, but what I am really doing is formulating a new business plan for my life. Nobody has ever become successful as a result of producing the exact same product as someone else, and a truly ambitious businessman can never get comfortable having a boss to answer to. So, from now on I am going to be considering myself an entrepreneur. I will thrive off of no other man's achievements and I will climb to the top of the ladder and become a pioneer in the industry of me. As of recent it seems that I am truly in the business of eliminating business as usual, and if you are a smart investor, then I would recommend buying soon, because business is booming.
