Default Survival in the "urban jungle" !

Hi Dennis,

I agree that opportunities are all around us.... But we have to "train" ourselvers to see them....

I see entrepreneurial skills as being a bit like jungle survival skills.... Except they are "urban jungle" survival skills!

Just as if you were lost in the jungle, to survive you would need to know how to find food to eat.... In the "urban jungle" it's the same, but you need to be able to spot money-making opportunities!

I think the best way to start learning how to spot these opportunities is to just "do it".... Start doing "something" - even something as simple as buying a few little items, and selling them on eBay. Once you start, as you get more experienced, you start to see more and more opportunities....

(A subscription to The Great Ideas Letter also helps too !)

Thanks for your comments Dennis! :)
