Never again will business success be at the mercy of the people. No longer will big business govern the pace and shape of our society. That thing will be broken up; dissolved and consumed by those who have taken the initiative to exert their God-given Power, abilities and responsibility to Life. Business ownership is a responsibility, not only to a business, but also to everything and everyone that the business touches.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Learn about the 13 Principles of American Business Ownership Development, methods you can use, and support you can have free of charge.

Every business owner knows that there will be unexpected challenges. They also know that their ability to maintain control mentally and emotionally is critical. The experiences of building a business are often very taxing on its owners. Most business owners seem to go beyond the consideration of being beaten by circumstances. There is certainly an inner force that drives and directs the business owner. The compulsion to achieve a specific goal or vision works like a magnet. It draws from within and around the business owner energy and abilities that can only be God-given. How does this force develop? Where does it come from? An individual may come to the point of starting a business many ways. Often, an unusual amount of skill and self-initiative has turned into the confidence needed to claim independence. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;Learn about the 13 Principles of American Business Ownership Development, its methods and support services visit &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://businessownership.wordpress.com/"&gt;http://businessownership.wordpress.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt; or &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://nsabo.wordpress.com/"&gt;http://nsabo.wordpress.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6980674580140248437-8031546303548754507?l=striveforgreatness.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6980674580140248437/posts/default/8031546303548754507'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6980674580140248437/posts/default/8031546303548754507'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://striveforgreatness.blogspot.com/2008/08/claiming-independence.html' title='Claiming Independence: Principle No.1'/><author><name>Stanley El</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17625706530623172469</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6980674580140248437.post-2410998350162153945</id><published>2008-08-05T07:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-11T11:03:23.541-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='The Principles of American Business Ownership'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='The National Society of American Business Owners'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='NSABO'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Stanley El'/><title type='text'>The Law of Success: Principle No. 13</title><content type='html'>&lt;meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;&lt;meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"&gt;&lt;meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 9"&gt;&lt;meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 9"&gt;&lt;link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/pxf/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/msoclip1/01/clip_filelist.xml"&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:donotoptimizeforbrowser/&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;style&gt; &lt;!--  /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal 	{mso-style-parent:""; 	margin:0in; 	margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:12.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman"; 	mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 	{size:8.5in 11.0in; 	margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; 	mso-header-margin:.5in; 	mso-footer-margin:.5in; 	mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 	{page:Section1;} --&gt; &lt;/style&gt;      &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102); font-family: arial;font-family:times new roman;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Each and every business owner, whether consciously or unconsciously, understands the Law of Success, which is the Law of Life.
