That should be....

Search until you find something that you just couldn't stand NOT being a part of.

(That is, work with a company you really love.... NOT one you really hate!)

> * Serve an apprenticeship in that company.
> Learn all about the company and the industry
> - become an expert.

This is like what we were talking about earlier.... Do a job for the useful SKILLS you'll learn from doing it....

> * Look for unmet needs. Look for markets
> that are not being served.

"Find a need and fill it".... :)

ACT on your ideas... :)

Ross Perot shares a lot more stuff too.... I'll be sharing some of that later too.... :)
