NO FORMULA, JUST TOOLS

Every day, millions of entrepreneurs go out into the streets and continue their struggle of finding financial independence. The small and medium enterprise is thriving all over the world.
Here's the thing, it doesn't matter who you are and where you are. It doesn't matter if you went to school or are street smart. THERE IS NO SECRET, 100% FOOLPROOF FORMULA FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS. There are just tools to help you achieve this success.
I have studied all my life, I have been going to school 21 years of my 26 years of life; over 80% of it. This is why the best advice I can give you, based on my experience and my studies is that there are a some factors that will contribute largely to your success in any business adventure:
  • IF YOU HAVE MONEY, YOUR CHANCES OF SUCCESS ARE BETTER THAN IF YOU ARE POOR: this is true due to the fact that the human brain associates money with success (in most cultures). And if people perceive you as successful, they will automatically give you more chances to achieve your goal in any business. People like to be around successful people, around money.
  • YOUR PLAN IS ONLY AS GOOD AS YOUR ANALYTICAL SKILL: Your analytical skill (as I like to call it) or criteria, will determine the data and factors that go into making that plan. Good planners are not the ones that go all out and have hundreds and hundreds of pages of information regarding what they want to do with their business. Good planers are the ones that can spot a vantage point where other cant, and normally good planers are made, not born. Make yourself a good planer by getting experience. And here's the big secret, you can get this experience by reading, read the greater minds of this last century, they will broaden your criteria.
  • THEORIES, SYSTEMS, CONTROLS AND EVALUATIONS: There are thousands of business models. Pick the ones that you understand the best and are simple to you. It all comes down to your ability to lessen the risk of failure by plotting your action-reaction procedures in the scenarios your business can encounter or create.
  • USE WHAT YOU KNOW: Don't try to impress everyone or someone. Be true to yourself, follow your heart by listening to your head. Theory is just theory. Remember that someone at a given point came up with the knowledge that you have read. Remember that your life experiences, all of them, can be metaphorized into a successfully business.

What I'm trying to say is that the top 500 companies according to Fortune have what in common? NOTHING, THERE IS NO SECRET FORMULA FOR BUSINESS SUCCES, they are successfully because they managed to find a way that their business works for them. Understand that a brand and business has to have a personality, it can be compared to a human being or any living organism. It's born, it lives, and then dies. It's up to you, the businessman to lead the way, and decide if the company is going to be a junky that dies prematurely, or a wise man that has many followers and listeners.
