[...] We’ve all heard how we can’t just be the technician in our business because we get caught up in the day-to-day and the tedious aspects. We get stuck ‘Getting it all done’. We work IN the business instead of ON the business. (You HAVE heard this right? From Michael Gerber of ‘The E-Myth’. If not – go read a summary here: “The E-Myth Revisited: A Review” by the great ‘Men with Pens’ [...]

Thank you for your reply. Maybe it’s like “re-visited” movies. It’s the same thing done in a different way and with new visual effects, but the story is the same

@ Catalin – Not sure at all. I picked this one and assumed that RE-visited meant “better than the first time we visited…”

I saw this review and i want to read this book. Are there any differences between the first version and this one?

Not healthy.. I don't add sugar or salt to anything.. prepared foods have way too much added already. I got used to drinking coffee black years and years ago.. same with tea.. don't like it any other way now. See? Oddball weirdo.

Oh man. You are missing a treat. Sludgejoe in the morning with two heaping tablespoons of snowy white sugar? Bliss. Chocolate chai with the same? Heaven.

Shiraz? Perfection.

I can understand how you might interpret it that way. I can't understand chocolate tea or putting sugar in tea or coffee. Tony Lawrence´s last blog post...Why defrag Windows XP Desktops? by Anthony Lawrence

@ Tony – No, I didn’t say contrary opinions hurts my business. I welcome them. We have an open policy about that sort of thing, and it’s good to hear someone say, “This is crap!” Rock on.

It’s the “It’s your fault I spent money on this book!” that doesn’t sit well. No matter. That’s my perspective of your sentence and probably not at all what you meant. We all view the world through our lenses, right?

As for tea… Chocolate chai, please. No milk, lotsa sugar.

Let me just add one more thing in case someone does feel ill-disposed toward MWP over this: I have great respect for these guys. I think James Chartrand particularly has done truly wonderful work here with some extremely thought provoking posts. As noted above, I was careless with my words. I am GLAD to have bought the book even though I personally disliked it. That's because I review such things at my website too - if James hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have read it and wouldn't have been able to warn my readers away from it. Anyway - I'm very upset that I have caused unpleasant feelings. That doesn't change my opinions, of course: Sarah and Michael Gerber are not my cup of tea! MWP is my cup of tea. Damn: now I want tea, and my wife has moved the teabags somewhere.. Tony Lawrence´s last blog post...A Big Xmas Present from Google Adsense by Anthony Lawrence

I apologize. I disagree that my contrary opinions can possibly hurt your business, but if you believe that, well, that's what you believe, so I apologize and ask that anyone who took my comments as being negative toward MWP as a business should understand that I meant no such thing.
