The most important job of the entrepreneur begins before there is a business or employees. the job of an entrepreneur is to design a business that can grow, employ many people, add value to its customers, be a responsible corporate citizen, bring prosperity to all those that work on the business, be charitable, and eventually no longer need the entrepreneur. before there is a business, a successful entrepreneur is designing this type of business in his or her mind's eye. according my rich dad, this is the job of a true entrepreneur.

"why is the creative entrepreneur the riskiest type to be?" i asked. "because being creative means you are often a pioneer. it is easy to copy a successful and proven product. it is also less risky. if you learn to innovate, create, or invent your way to success, you are an entrepreneur creating new value rather than an entrepreneur who wins by copying."

You've probably heard about the theory of steam-engine time - that even after the steam engine had been invented, it had to wait until people were ready to make use of it. the same thing happens in literary circles. the truth is, i'm not terribly interested in victorian times; i'm interested in victorian writers. i'm interested in most eras of history, but not the victorian era especially. i was interested in the john franklin expedition. i was interested in these last five weird years of dickens' life. and i just have to take the age that comes with all that when i write about it.

There's the life you live and the life you leave behind. but what you share with someone else - especially someone you love - that's not just how you bury your past. it's how you write you future.

To write a genuine familiar or truly english style is to write as anyone would speak in common conversation, who had a thorough command and choice of words, or who could discourse with ease, force, and perspicuity, setting aside all pedantic and oratorical flourishes.

Writing is a question of finding a certain rhythm. i compare it to the rhythms of jazz. much of the time life is a sort of rhythmic progression of three characters. if one tells oneself that life is like that, one feels it less arbitrary.
