Everyone is in business

"As a general rule, you have to accept that no matter where you work, you are not an employee - you are in a business with one employer: yourself."

".. if you want to work and to continue to work, you must continually dedicate yourself to retaining your individual competitive advantage."

"..nobody owes you a career. You own it as a sole proprietor."

Andy with some questions to reflect on:

• "Are you adding value or merely passing information along?"
• "Are you plugging into what's happening around you?"
• "Are you trying new ideas, new techniques, and new technologies, and I mean personally trying them, not just reading about them?"
