if you did - you'd see the the whole thing in your head - right to the end - and you wouldn't despair.
if you'd like to, i can line you a list of steps you need to take next.

Akula,
You are 100% correct. I am currently enrolled in a business school, and am getting my AA in Business Administration in July 2007. I just barely took "basic principles of business managment" as a course, and you are right. I still don't have the "conceptual system for understanding what steps" i need to take. But since i was born i've been looking up and copying. Thats how i've become who i am today. I saw everyone else walking, so i began to walk (crawled at first) but made it. Oh they can ride a bike, so i learnt. we spoke to communicate, so i copied and learned. Same with beliefs and habits up until i grew old enough to think for myself. Well i still copy today. and not the bad copying like on tests or exams, but looking up and copying successful people.
If i had a nickel for every time i've heard someone say "dreams can come true" well i wouldn't be here right now. I can tell you i've listenend to almost all motivational tapes from speakers like Anthony Robbins, Jim Rohn, Richard Brandler, Brian Tracy and many others; that i could find for free. Why? Because I don't have the money to buy them myself. If i spent all the money i had on those tapes, i'd have no food, no new clothes, no fun, except reading and listening materials. I don't believe you should go to the bottom to start moving to the top. I believe that you can climb the classes from whereever you are. I wrote Anthony and the gang an 11 page letter explaining who i am, my dreams, and why. I'm just an average middle class 18 year old learning the ropes of life. I'm not poor, i'm not struggling with life, i'm not in "need" for money. But i have this dream of not having to worry about limits. Looking on a menu at the price not the meal. All this is in my biography.
Akula, I may not know the ropes, but i sure to heck want to learn them. The biggest fear i have is failure, and i don't want to lose the money i have, nor anyone elses money. Money in some cases does make the world go round. It depends, as with anything. So maybe i should be begging for money. But I'm not really. It may seem like it, so i'll rephrase it.
I have a dream, and i'm looking for anyone who can help me make it a reality. I'm sick and tired of scams and schemes. I want to create the opposite. A company that lives by its words. Although my business plan is somewhat exaggerated, this quote is what started me asking.
"Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don't go to the ocean with a teaspoon. At least take a bucket so the kids won't laugh at you."
Jim Rohn
I've had no response as yet other than "good luck with that" and "i'll see what i can do" with no action.
That's a little bit on where i'm coming from.

Does anything take off here?
