VENTURE INVESTING
VENTURE INVESTING:
The market has been rising since March 2009. The recent correction revolves around:
· Sovereign Nation Defaults
· Contagion in melt down of EU nations due to misrepresentation of their debt and true balance sheets
· Commercial Toxic paper bond markets can’t refi
· Profit taking from the long run up since March 2009
· Potential for a W recession
· The recovery is jobless and weaker than traditional recoveries
· Problems are still spreading and everyone knows it
· Banks failing at record rates world wide
The correction has in other nations, breached the floor of the low in February 2009. In the USA we have held against testing that low – 943 or so in the DOW and similar numbers to other index exchanges. New rules in the financial industry are coming from the EU and USA. The uncertain market place while new rules are not yet law feed further trends against sustain growth and higher volatility.
A B of A economist today reported that the “rest of the world had fallen apart to breach the February low and only the USA was standing alone – yet the strength to hold is fading. She said she waits for the day the February low is tested and bested because she did not see a market moving up until that period of shake out had been passed.”
For equity investors such lack of confidence provides a solid reason to move into VENTURE INVESTING with full diversification. Diversified Venture Investing remains the one spot investors can buy low ( a dollar a share or less ) and sell high ( 40 dollars a share or more ). Not to mention stock splits.
CEO SPACE July is the HONEY POT for the quality minded investor who has simply “had it” with equities in their present condition.

The Right To Lead
This is an excerpt from The Right To Lead, a book by John C. Maxwell.
What gives a man or woman the right to lead? It certainly isn't gained by election or appointment. Having position, title, rank or degrees doesn't qualify anyone to lead other people. And the ability doesn't come automatically from age or experience, either.
No, it would be accurate to say that no one can be given the right to lead. The right to lead can only be earned. And that takes time.
The Kind of Leader Others Want to Follow
The key to becoming an effective leader is not to focus on making other people follow, but on making yourself the kind of person they want to follow. You must become someone others can trust to take them where they want to go.
As you prepare yourself to become a better leader, use the following guidelines to help you grow:
1. Let go of your ego.
The truly great leaders are not in leadership for personal gain. They lead in order to serve other people. Perhaps that is why Lawrence D. Bell remarked, "Show me a man who cannot bother to do little things, and I'll show you a man who cannot be trusted to do big things."
2. Become a good follower first.
Rare is the effective leader who didn't learn to become a good follower first. That is why a leadership institution such as the United States Military Academy teaches its officers to become effective followers first - and why West Point has produced more leaders than the Harvard Business School.
3. Build positive relationships.
Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less. That means it is by nature relational. Today's generation of leaders seem particularly aware of this because title and position mean so little to them. They know intuitively that people go along with people they get along with.
4. Work with excellence.
No one respects and follows mediocrity. Leaders who earn the right to lead give their all to what they do. They bring into play not only their skills and talents, but also great passion and hard work. They perform on the highest level of which they are capable.
5. Rely on discipline, not emotion.
Leadership is often easy during the good times. It's when everything seems to be against you - when you're out of energy, and you don't want to lead - that you earn your place as a leader. During every season of life, leaders face crucial moments when they must choose between gearing up or giving up. To make it through those times, rely on the rock of discipline, not the shifting sand of emotion.
6. Make adding value your goal.
When you look at the leaders whose names are revered long after they have finished leading, you find that they were men and women who helped people to live better lives and reach their potential. That is the highest calling of leadership - and its highest value.
7. Give your power away.
One of the ironies of leadership is that you become a better leader by sharing whatever power you have, not by saving it all for yourself. You're meant to be a river, not a reservoir. If you use your power to empower others, your leadership will extend far beyond your grasp.
