One of the more recent blogs I have started to read is the blog of Niall Harbison - You might remember him from the UK version of Dragons Den and the investment they received for their online video receipe company iFood.tv. The company has recently rebranded, on advice of the dragons, to now be called LookAndTaste
There is some very interesting posts and video advice on his blog especially for entrepeneurs like him. His blog post "Go with what your heart says not your head" poses some very interesting points about business and business decisions.
My favourite one is "How to make yourself more likely to succeed" - in order words work on any weakness that you have and build those up. I too am a strong believer in this ethos be it in business, sport or living in general
However there is a book named Now, Discover your strengths that tries to presuade you to do the opposite - Read their book, do an online test to discover your five greatest strengths and work on making these better. Alot of US multinational companies are starting to adapt this strategy also - for any project, group a team together with a combination of all necessary strengths to make the project work - Harmony, Focus, Responsibility, Organiser etc.
It is an interesting concept.
Anyway, Niall Haribson has an interesting blog with a good array of subjects. Well worth checking out.
