Christmas is a great time to pause for breath and that’s something that we small business people find difficult to do.

So in this enforced pause for breath let me use it as an opportunity to wish great things in 2009 to all people who’s business is business.

To those full of hope incubating an idea that has yet to blossom into a successful business: I wish that you ask yourself two questions: 1. Is your idea going to change the world and 2. Has it been done before? If your answers are yes and no then it is only you that lies between its success and failure.

To those in business for whom business has become a metaphor for pain, hardship, suffocation; for whom the promise of eternal financial and social freedom has become a distant footnote: I wish that your 2009 resolution be that you break out at all cost, whatever it takes. Visualise your exit with a renewed gusto and plan that you succeed without fail.

And to those for whom business is synonymous with success, happiness, wealth beyond measure and an unparalleled self worth: I salute you. My wish for you is that you channel some of your good fortune toward the help of others still striving to reach your high ground.

To all I thank you for popping by and look forward to your next visit. But most of all I wish you a Happy Christmas and life fulfilling 2009.
