I’m a father. Since 1.5 of a week. That’s why I can say, that I have a fresh look at the birth of a child. When the “dust has settled after the battle” – we can analyze this act. And… what’s really amazing, we can easily find the features of a good manager in it.
Most of not so advanced entrepreneurs think that projects, which they invented, are their kids. And that is true. However they also think that they have to think about them all day long. That they have to worry about them at night, that they are the best people to develop them and to manage them. And that is not true. I can say much more… stay away from them. You are the client!
People think that having a company is a really easy. That everybody can have a company, because it’s not a problem to manage a one-person company. That’s a bullshit! Setting up new firm is easy. Paying taxes is easy. Having company? No. Why? Because having a one-person company is a myth.

I just read a book “Who moved my cheese?”, written by Spencer Johnson. Long time ago I heard lots of positive opinions about this book, so after a while I decided to read it. Finally I found some free time for doing it.
