And I LOVE that quote from Masterson. However, with our families, it's like the quote from the Bible that a prophet is despised in his own town, sort of a "can't get no respect" a la Rodney Dangerfield, so I don't recommend to women that they IMMEDIATELY tell their families what they are doing when they start their own business. Because their families may take a patronizing view of it. And think of it as your pet project. And utter pejorative little statements which undermine the fragile self-confidence we have in the first of building up one's own business. Once you have something of a track record. Some clients... then tell them.... sideways sorta.... "Those projects I've been doing these past 6, 9, 12 months... they've grown into a full-fledged business. I'm staying with it for now...." when you earn your first million, take them dinner and then tell them you own a corporation! lol Happy Dating and Relationships, April Braswell <a href="http://www.aprilbraswell.com/BoomerDating.html" rel="nofollow">Single Baby Boomer Dating Success Expert</a> Hi Miss Mentor,

I agree with the cost of inaction being higher than the cost of failure and suspect that what holds people back is that they never stop to compare the two.
