What is the E-Myth?  It is the myth that if you are good at doing “something,” you can turn that “something” into a profitable business.  But, being good at something is.not.enough.The E-Myth Revisited explains why 80% of small businesses fail, and how to ensure yours isn't among those by building a company that's based on systems and not on the work of a single individual.Michael Gerber advocates doing a lot of thinking on the front end to prevent you from maneuvering yourself into a situation you can’t get out of.

66% of small businesses fail, and it’s not for the reasons you think. So why do they fail?  That is what Darren Hardy set out on a mission to discover in The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster. What he found was startling. All the previously reported reasons and assumptions for the failure rate (capital, location, credit, inventory management, and competition) were wrong.Failure was not due to outside factors--they were internal. They weren't economic--they were emotional. The unexpected and terrifying emotional roller coaster an entrepreneur experiences is the greatest factor in why most quit and ultimately fail.

Dame Zaha Hadid born October 31, 1950, died March 31, 2016.

Only rarely does an architect emerge with a philosophy and approach to the art form that influences the direction of the entire field.

Food. We all love to eat it. So why should anyone need to defend it?Michael Pollan's premise In Defense of Food is a simple seven-word summary; 'Eat food, not a lot, mostly plants.' The rise of nutritionism and industrialization means the Western diet has changed for the worse. We're suffering from over-nutrition, so we need to stand up for "real food," and reclaim good health and natural ingredients.Michael Pollan explores the age of nutritionism and asks how we went from eating food to consuming nutrients, and why this is a problem. Then it looks at why a typical Western diet has damaged our health and made us more overweight than ever before. And finally, it provides basic food rules on eating better, and with more enjoyment.
