At the end of my life, I want to look back and know that I have loved my friends and family, and made a difference in the lives of entrepreneurs who view their businesses as an opportunity to make a contribution and change the world.
It’d be a life well lived.
I’m working on it.
On entrepreneurship
I’ve been an entrepreneur since before I knew the word existed.
Today, I put that energy towards helping passionate entrepreneurs with great ideas figure out to to express them through sustainable businesses.
It turns out all those failed businesses (not to mention a few great successes) have made me pretty good at that whole “marketing and strategy thing.”
This blog, An Entrepreneur’s Life, is around to chronicle the journey and offer some useful ideas that you might find helpful along the way.

On learning
A lifetime entrepreneur and a lifetime learner.
Books are great — and where I spend an insane amount of time, thanks Amazon — but nothing substitutes for truly masterful mentors.
I’ve spent time learning and laughing with a crazy cast of characters, but none more influential than the two great mentors I’ve had the priveledge to absorb wisdom from in my adult life: Dr. Joseph Riggio and Dan Kennedy.
Most of my reading is on strategy and psychology.
I also throw in the odd fiction book.
Go Shibumi.
I live in Leesburg, Virginia with my wife, Michele, and our three cats, Sigmund, Corey and Kado. And my books.
