Whether you are an entrepreneur or a corporate exec, your ability to expand your impact in the world is enhanced by business travel. Traveling a lot for work recently has provided me with some unique opportunities to observe people. There are lots of stories and jokes and stereotypical characteristics about road warriors – people who travel a lot on business – and I expected to run into a lot of confirming examples. But what I’ve discovered is the few are creating an image to the detriment of the many. It’s nice to know that most of the fellow travelers you’ll meet on the road are just regular people focused on doing a good job. Sure, there will be the occasional twit and some pretty funny stories to share, but most of it is routine as you join the ranks of the polite, yet focused business travelers.

A complaint letter is one of the nastiest things there is when it comes to writing a nasty thing. To me, it’s despicable, because it’s obvious I’m not writing it out of boredom, but something bad has happened.

Many people feel like they are stuck in a rut of a job with no way out and are faced with the prospect of carrying on with a job that they are totally bored with until they can afford to retire. The internet makes it possible for anybody from any background or education level to start setting up a small business online to help them escape from a job they dislike.
