Dreams worth pursuing do not have to be spectacular or amazing. The important thing is living a dream that is really yours. Those who are most fulfilled know what they want and go after it. Understanding and shaping vision is the basis for any new or existing personal or business career. Vision development is a process. But first, it seems appropriate to ask some questions. Why are you here? What is your personal purpose in life? Why are you doing what you are doing? What brought you to this profession? Why are you where you are? These are all questions you must ask yourself before developing a successful personal vision. They same holds true when it comes to a business vision. Understanding who you are and what you are all about is pertinent to understanding what it is you want to accomplish.

Author Rich Brott notes six themes that are mutually dependent upon each other, each of which represent a necessary requirement for a successful business. They are, Knowledge, Experience, Ability, Opportunity, Capital, and Commitment. When it comes to business failures, the stats are not pretty. Within the first year of operation, over 50% of businesses fail. Extend the time period to five years, and the statistics become even worse. In that time period over 95% of all businesses fail. From the beginning, business is risky and chances of success poor. But you can significantly improve your chances of success with good insight, preparation and planning. The author notes that in this book he wants to help you in the area of establishing your business and will do so by leading you step-by-step through these critical areas.
3 John 2 says Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. Proverbs 11: 25 notes A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed. Jeremiah 29: 11 states, For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Author Rich Brott begins with the fact that God wants to provide good things for His children. He wants for you to prosper and be successful in your God given gifts and callings. But God is no vending machine, nor does His promises come without conditions. If God cannot trust you with a hundred dollars now, how can He trust you with a thousand or a hundred thousand? Christians have access to unlimited and unimaginable resources. But with this access comes accountability. This is a lot of trust that God places in our lives. It is more than just finances. It is our entire life and how we handle it with faithfulness, responsibility, accountability, honesty, and integrity. You can learn how to Receive the Prosperity and Provision of God!
Business focus is an integral part of your ability to advance and build your business into something beyond mediocrity. Staying focused on your vision and purpose is very key. Nothing significant is ever achieved without focus. If it's worth getting, it must be the focus of your attention at all times. Focus begins with a sense of purpose, mission and vision.

A growing company does not continue without great business productivity, timely follow-through and effective leadership. Advancing a Successful Business is not automatic and will not happen without a steady hand at the helm backed by a great team who stays alert and motivated.
Author Rich Brott notes that ¿faith¿ is a choice, an act of the human will. It is a deliberate choice to place confidence in God and His Word. Unbelief is a sin because it is a deliberate choice to withhold confidence in God and His Word. Faith is a receiving of the truth, an embracing of the truth, and a commitment to the God of truth! And commitment always produces action. That is why faith without works is dead. With no action there is no commitment. With no commitment there is no faith! In this book, you will find 25 faith-building principles that will enlarge your capacity to receive the very best that God has to offer you.
Economic entrepreneurship has a history of success in every area of the world. It has sustained families, cities and nations as it has created employment opportunities and economic growth. Your success in business will be determined by your commitment to gain, learn, understand, and implement knowledge, experience, ability, opportunity, capital, commitment and do it all with great business passion. Success is a planned event and rarely happens without great personal effort. Maximizing your business success means that you are effective, productive and efficient. Never give up! In other words, trying and failing is a risk one must bear in order to be able to succeed. Success is in turning failure into an opportunity. Failure is not your enemy. Successful people see failure as a seed; the seed of success.
Some people teach that we should give to get. Others teach that we should sacrifice and withhold from our family in order to give more. Neither extreme point of view is correct. We must provide for our family. We should not give to get. Our attitude should be one of obedience and liberality. The best way to give to the Lord is to understand all that He has given to us, and then freely give back to Him. Author Rich Brott provides a very balanced perspective in his latest book, Prosperity Has a Purpose. He notes that we gain by giving and we lose by withholding. When we freely give to God, regardless of our own personal need, we allow God to be big in our lives. We allow Him to provide for us. This can only happen as we buy into the principle of freely giving. If we are stingy in our giving and withhold from the Lord, we miss the many blessings and provisions He wants to shower upon us.
Giving to others brings indescribable pleasure. Author Rich Brott says, giving is fun! Giving is exciting! Just try to give something away without feeling wonderful. An inward joy comes to you when you have reached out and helped others. Whether it be in monetary gifts or simply rolling up your sleeves and helping out the old-fashioned way, the act of giving brings its own reward. When you give first, your own personal needs will be automatically taken care of. After all, giving is the Lord's work. It is Christianity in action.
God is interested in our willingness to manage and administrate all that He has given to us. Nothing will be thrown into our laps. Financial prosperity is not an unconditional providential blessing; conditions are attached. We are to take action and be proactive. The abilities and giftings God provides motivate us to action. Sometimes it takes our persistence in doing the same things faithfully with the heart of a servant. Other times it is time to try new things, new methods, and seek new opportunities. Sometimes the steady plodding brings the success of the blessed life. Many people, deep in debt and lacking in self-discipline in their spending and contentment level, complain that their em...
