Introduction    I believe in you and in your potential to have a wonderful life.    I believe that you will have more money than you need.    I believe that you will be blessed with an abundance of friends.    I believe that you will be a respected member of your community and that many will seek your counsel.    I believe that you will be happy and content.    All of this can be yours if you commit to the Action Principles.    The underlying message of the Action Principles is very simple:    1. Improve yourself.    2. Help others.    You stop and think, "How can I be a better mother, father, son, daughter, friend, worker, manager, citizen and servant of God?" Then you translate your thoughts into action.    You stop and think what can I do to ease the burden and bring joy to my family, my friends, my customers, and my fellow citizens. And, as Mother Teresa asked us to do: Be a true friend to just one other person who is lonely, ignored or unloved?    As you empower others, the best of life will flow toward you.    Master Small Business is not a book.    Master Small Business is a course. w   There is a difference. With a book, you can choose simply to read through from beginning to end. However, if you approach Master Small Business as simply reading matter, you will gain little. Actually, you will gain very little.    I wrote the Master Small Business Course, as I would have taught a ten-week college course meeting three times per week for a total of thirty classes. Each lesson becomes your hour class. Your homework is the Resource Section following each lesson.    Space the course material over the ten weeks and do your homework. Between lessons, take the time to reflect on how you can personalize the ideas to fit your own career aspirations. As you reflect, you will be able to organize your thinking into clearly defined goals, objectives and to-dos. Now, you really have something! You will have created a customized map leading to your own success.    Each day, read your Action Principle and you will begin to develop into a tough but compassionate, no-nonsense person of action. You will know that you are you doing your best. This will make you happy.    Here is what I ask in return.    Become an Action Principles Champion.    That is all that I ask.    I find the idea of personal achievement exciting. You are on a wonderful journey of discovery. Seek your fortune. Your treasure waits. I am excited for you.    Good luck.    Bill FitzPatrick Go to Lesson One 1 | 2 |  3 | 4 | 5 | 6 Index
