Start with a plan. You really can’t get your entrepreneurial masterpiece off the ground if you don’t have a solid business plan in place to start with. In fact, you’ll need to do a lot of research before you even pen the plan. Consider your niche, analyze the market, and try to determine a strategy to fit in before you ever put together a prospectus to show potential investors.

Going to the shops without any list or even knowledge of what you have and haven’t got in the cupboards can be a disaster. You buy more than you need, and you buy things you might want at the time, but probably won’t later on. Your bill is astronomical and you might still not have the one thing you really needed.
Whether you’re buying the latest noise-making toys for your nieces and nephews (that’s right, the holidays are the perfect time to have a little fun at the expense of your siblings!), a bushel of electronics for your friends, or some new perfume that the ladies are raving about, you are likely to end your holiday shopping spree with PTSSD (Post Traumatic Sticker Shock Disorder).

On Sunday, November 7, 2010, over 44, 000 runners registered for the ING NYC Marathon and amongst them was my friend Karen Lui and I’m proud of her. After her race I had to ask her a few questions that we might all want to know the answers to, I love her answers, even more motivation to start or to continue running. If you have any questions to ask Karen please leave a comment, but she seems to covered every question we might have:
Are you having trouble trying to find a unique gift for your man for the holidays? Have you been planning for Christmas gifts for some time now? If not, don’t sweat it. Here are 3 great and truly unique gift ideas that will have your man telling you that you are the best and most unique girl in the world.

One of the main reasons that people don’t go back to school is Time. What’s the other one? Money.
You can’t always make more of either of those in your life, but you can change the way you spend them so it seems as though you have more. If you want to have more money for school, you have to spend less in other areas. Even though this is common sense, it can also seem difficult.
They call it your golden years for a reason: because you’re in the money! At least, you will be if you spent a lifetime contributing to social security, a 401K, and other lucrative investments. In truth, it is a golden opportunity to finally get around to all the things you wanted to do (but didn’t have time for). You now enjoy the freedom to travel, volunteer, or simply sleep in for a change.
Perhaps a better question is: will you ever be ready? Kids are expensive, in case you didn’t know. Statistics keep changing, but people generally seem to agree that the cost of raising a child to the age of 18 is approximately $200,000. Ouch! And that’s before they even go to college (or continue to live on your couch rent-free…well, don’t worry about that yet). The point is, most people who plan to have a child (or several) don’t have that many Gs on reserve. Does that mean they shouldn’t start trying to conceive?

A few years ago I posted this post: 20 Minutes to a Great Bod, at that time I was really into fitness and keeping my body weight constant. I slacked off for about a year and then got back to it again this year and I couldn’t be any happier. I am not a runner/jogger, I find it boring, annoying and pointless to run on a treadmill straight for 30-60 minutes. However, after I found this great workout by FitnessMagazine.com I found a new love for the treadmill.
This weekend premiered the first film of the Night Chronicles Series, Devil. As a scary movie fanatic, I support scary movies that I find to be worth my time and money. When I saw the preview/trailer for Devil, I found it to be interesting, not corny like the rest of the scary movies that came out lately, and the best thing was, that it wasn’t in 3D. It seems like every slasher/thriller, kids or action movies that come out are in 3D.
