Bill Bartmann explains the process that entrepreneurs must go through in order to meet their goals in business    Tulsa, OK - Bill Bartmann continued his lecture series by discussing the myths of business ownership.  "There are many elements involved with starting and growing a successful business," Bill Bartmann began.  "When considering going into business for your self, understand the facts and the myths."   The first myth of business ownership is ‘you get to be your own boss.'  "In a way, you do, but in a way, you don't," said Bartmann.  "If you are thinking of going into business for yourself just to replace your "jerk" of a boss, think again.  Consider your employees, your customers, your lenders and bankers and your vendors and suppliers.  All these people will, in a sense, becom... 04/14/2009

Whether we are the direct blame for an outcome or just involved in the result, there is an opportunity for excuse or reason.  Reason is a rational motive for a belief or action but an excuse is a defense of some offensive behavior or some failure to keep a promise.  The key word in the definition for reason would be "rational"...in the definition for excuse it would be "defense".  Reasoning is thinking that is coherent and logical, and an excuse is a poor example.  Remember when we were kids and mom would say "don't give me that excuse" or "stop making excuses".  If we take a detour off the path and make a mistake, just own up, take responsibility, it makes the recovery go smoother. If someone does us wrong, we don't really want to hear excuses, do we? We can be understanding and let pe... 01/16/2009
