Publisher's summary

Learn the secret of profit thinking!

If you're self-employed - or want to be - who'll keep you motivated? Who helps you stay focused? Chances are - it's you! Even though the road you are taking you toward your dreams, it can feel long and bumpy en route, as many of those who have succeeded will tell you. That's why Secrets of Successful Self-Employment was created. Consider it the collective voice of thousands of people just like you who have left the safe, salaried job to venture into the unfamiliar but exhilarating world of being their own boss.

In this insightful program, Paul and Sarah Edwards will challenge you to change the way you view yourself, your business, and your life - to make powerful mental shifts that will change your thinking from someone who depends on a regular paycheck to someone who lives and thrives off profits. They'll prepare you for the success and the inevitable setbacks of entrepreneurship, while giving you concrete tips, practical examples, and sound advice for making it alone. You'll also learn how to:

  • Run your business based on what type of entrepreneur you are.
  • Overcome financial difficulties and other obstacles.
  • Mentally prepare yourself for success.
  • Position yourself to recognize and seize opportunities.
  • Use modern technology to complete many jobs more efficiently.
  • Master your emotions, making them productive instead of having them working against you.
  • Enhance your problem-solving and creative-thinking skills.

To succeed on your own, it is essential that you adopt a self-reliant mindset and take charge of your time and life. This program can show you, step by step, how to achieve these advantages and many others. Success in your own business is easier than ever before, especially when you know the Secrets of Successful Self-Employment.

A bit dated, but still good!

The couple was fun to listen to and they gave great advice. It's a bit dated and my husband enjoyed it a bit more than I did, but we still gained a few golden nuggets. Thanks.
