According to Bill Gates the automobile opened up the suburbs and that the whole idea of suburbs came from the freedom that the car provided. In the same manner, the personal computer and the Internet connection has made distance immaterial and made work and social interaction possible for people living in the farthest corners of the world. The idea of having access to goods and services anywhere in the Digital Universe boggles the imagination and the relentless flow of information has allowed both sectors of the economy to move to a truly global market.
Bill Gates and Andy Grove of Intel are considered to be responsible in leading the building of the worldwide personal computing business. The world has never been the same since and there is no turning back. This is the world where we have to fight our battles and survive; this is the world where we have to thrive and flourish.
With the info-glut on the Internet, it is very important to focus like a laser on what you hope to achieve as an entrepreneur in this dynamic and ever-changing environment.

The Golden Rule and all the wisdom coming down through the ages will never be irrelevant even in this time of Facebook and Twitter accounts.
The first message is do not ever give up on your dreams because no obstacle was ever formidable enough to stop a determined army. Life and business will always have its mountaintops of joy and success and deep valleys of failure and despair but never doubt that faith can move mountains. Secondly, becoming an Internet millionaire is an innocent enough dream, as dreams go, but it will be supremely rewarding if we have to fight with all our might to get it and doubly satisfying when success is attained while working and interacting with people in an atmosphere of mutual respect and cooperation.…
