What can I do to minimize the amount of failed attempts to eventually become successful.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04250618014743770875noreply@blogger.comBlogger41100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3715226403527036557.post-63392387116002127102007-04-13T07:20:00.000-07:002007-04-13T07:24:51.106-07:00I had just received some interesting news on a possible job opportunity and if all goes well, and I pass interviews and stuff like that I just might take it. It could possibly change my other business options I was looking into, but I will keep everyone posted. Exciting, exciting, exciting.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3715226403527036557-6339238711600212710?l=vandruff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04250618014743770875noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3715226403527036557.post-12198786932866254892007-04-09T17:42:00.000-07:002007-04-09T17:53:25.702-07:00I have a property/investment business called VLP Properties and Investments. I know, it is very broad. I did that on purpose because I didn't know at the time how I wanted to approach my business. Anyway I new I want to own house and I wanted to invest in new businesses. I figure the name would do. Now that I have thought about it a lot more I decided I am going to manage a few rental properties of my own and of a few other select people (by reference only) very personalized. I also want to have a Realtor doing real estate deals (still trying to fill that gap, I don't want to be the Realtor). I would like to by investment properties that I can flip quickly (these are to add to some of the properties in my portfolio already). Then my current project; trying to bring my community together in the real estate market all on one web site. It is in the makings right now and I can't wait to see where it is going to go, because I have so many good ideas. Finally, I eventually want to be able to invest in other small business that I think will do good. Not necessarily running them but fronting some capital for part business owner. <br />That is pretty much my business in a nut shell. Sorry for the long explanation, I tried to make it as understandable as possible.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3715226403527036557-1219878693286625489?l=vandruff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04250618014743770875noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3715226403527036557.post-84778316991207744552007-04-09T12:09:00.000-07:002007-04-09T18:17:23.032-07:00I am considering using a VOIP service for my business telephone.

I heard that most entrepreneurs fail many times before they become successful, does it always have to be that way?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3715226403527036557-6068108810238266268?l=vandruff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04250618014743770875noreply@blogger.com3
