Larry, no problem. Let's just say that I've been pushing on a certain entrepreneurial front for a while, and honestly I was starting to feel at a bit of a loss. It's funny how just getting an outside perspective can help open the doors and blow in a fresh breeze! I'll be looking for more of your posts, for sure. Have a great weekend!

Purpose over passion--I think that's great advice for sustaining entrepreneurial efforts, especially for bootstrappers whose businesses are often running them rather than the other way around. Perhaps converting that passion to purpose will help them transition and reverse that. Great advice--I'm going to take it and run with it. Thanks!
