<p>I&#8217;ve been thinking&#8230; about the economy&#8230; about running a<br />
small business&#8230; and the question came to my mind &#8211;</p>
<p><em>What if you had to start over?</em></p>
<p>I have to say, the best thing I ever did for my business was find<br />
mentors early on. When I first started selling on eBay, I got<br />
involved with a group of other women who were doing very similar<br />
things I was doing&#8230; and I met Jim Cockrum. I am convinced that<br />
seeking out mentors had a huge impact on my business early on. If I<br />
had to start over again in my business, I would seek out a handful<br />
(2-3) mentors and stay focused.</p>
<p>Here are a few of my favorite mentors:<br />
