In my 25+ years as an accountant, I've seen hundreds of thousands of business people go from barely scraping by to absolutely smashing it. Here are the 4 rules of business that I tell all of my clients, friends and even my own children (@_nathanrene)

Good morning, here's my fortune cookie business message of the day. The win is never where you think it’s going to be. You may be about to bring on a big client and it falls through. Don't be discouraged. That could pave the way for a mammoth new client in the future.

Activity is everything. Make mistakes faster than your competitor while they are sitting around telling their friends about their big plans. You've already weathered the storm while they are taking the time to choose the perfect umbrella.

On twitter all I see is people talking about making money online. I totally see the benefits (here I am!), but I think that leaves a lot of money around for those of us who prefer to work in the real world. The chance for you to be a big fish in a small pond is growing!

Reading won't make you rich, it will make you well-read. There's idiots that are living your dreams while you're 'educating yourself'.
