Innovation is the specific tool of entrepreneurs, the means by which they exploit change as an opportunity for a different business or a different service. it is capable of being presented as a discipline, capable of being learned, capable of being practiced. entrepreneurs need to search purposefully for the sources of innovation, the changes and their symptoms that indicate opportunities for successful innovation. and they need to know and to apply the principles of successful innovation.

"you're very attractive." i've been complimented on my appearance before. but never in his tone of voice. of all the things he's said, i don't know why this catches me off guard. but it startles me so much that without thinking i blurt out, "i could say the same about you." i pause. "in case you didn't know." a slow grin spreads across his face. "oh, trust me. i know.
