I'm a big fan of Paul Jarvis and Company of One.
These days everyone is about finding venture capital funding, scaling, building a larger & larger team, more publicity, and growth, growth, GROWTH!!!!
Jarvis, IMHO, makes a compelling argument for questioning all of that. Beyond initial growth, why do you want to grow your business more. What will that entail? Is personal satisfaction and happiness part of the equation?
The Lean Startup is also a must for new entrepreneurs ... just wished I had more closely followed that advice.
