Many people start their businesses with the firm belief that they will definitely succeed. However, statistics have shown that more than fifty percent of those businesses fail in the first five years. One of the major reasons for this high business mortality rate is that most entrepreneurs make serious business mistakes in the course of running their businesses. Mistakes limit progress: The more mistakes you make in business, the more stagnated your business becomes which eventually leads to business failure.

Apply the wisdom-principles embedded in this book and watch your business travel with the speed of light unhindered.
