A few months ago I sat down with all of my highlighted books, notes, seminar handouts, favorite quotations, classic one-liners and all other priceless pieces of business advice that have accumulated over the past 5 years.
Originally, it started out as a brainstorming exercise in which I wrote 100 pieces of business advice on 100 Post It Notes as a "Wall of Motivation." I ended up liking it so much that I took the "best of" and wrote a quote book.
This quote book is a free download AND my holiday gift to the world!
66 Priceless Pieces of Business Advice I Couldn't Live Without
So, as the holiday season gets under way, from all of us at Front Porch Productions (by which I mean me and my dogs) I wish you a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Joyful Kwanza and Fantastic Festivus.
LET ME ASK YA THIS...
What's the most priceless piece of business advice you've ever received?

Love your site Scott, just came across it recently and your whole angle is solid. Of your 66 quotes, I've got about 40 of the same jotted down in my quotebook.
"Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now." Goethe
"Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you ready or not, to put this plan into action." Napoleon Hill
Great ebook, Scott...you have some gems there.
My favorite piece of business advice: Every project is a failure in the middle. Persistence creates success.
Love the format and the content! Your ezine and blog are always worth the read!
Here's a favorite of mine:
"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Jean,
I used that quote in my graduation speech last May when I received the most outstanding senior of the year at Dominican University of California. I love that one.
My all time favorite(s) are,
"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face-- You must do the thing you think you cannot do." Eleanor Roosevelt
OR
"If you think you can or can't... you're right!" Anonymous
Scott, you're a genius....
"Anyone living within their means suffers from a lack of imagination."
Good luck tomorrow. You'll be great.
Scott,
The piece of advice that has meant the most to me was two words from a friend aimed directly at me at a crucial changing point in my life, 12 years ago. She said "Be friendly". Immediately my career took off. I'll never forget it and the power of friendliness has never failed me.
Dear Scott, thanks for another super article, i just love this site, thanks for the hard work.
