Small Business Tip Never Give Up, Never
There is not a single need for a quote here
Logic can and does share in the articles on this blog and two forums we also operate that to exist, you must persist.
Case in point
Perhaps through reading our Viper Logic blog named Logic Talk, you will run across a word we share a lot and it is generally a capitalized titled “PASSION” because without this in your efforts you are going to fail.
Do you run a business?
Do you have this “PASSION” as a way you think about all of your efforts you apply each and every waking moment to your product or service?

Do you know who your company’s number one fan is? The correct answer better be you.
Be prepared for criticism
If you are running a business and you are not open to others opinions then you should not be in business. Though you do not have to, nor should you take all of the advice and apply it to your business model having persons in your surroundings.
Be thankful and be gracious that they those persons in our lives are willing to step up review and critique your efforts, it is not a bad thing, and it is a required thing to do.
Before the business leader in you blows your stack
So next time you are nearing the top of your patience level while being critiqued remember, these persons are for the most part trying to help you in the areas they best know how or feel strongly knowledgeable in.
All success stories have had a critique
If you name a person that is today operating a company that is popular or is a known household name Logic will guarantee you this, they had critiques, those that would tell them that their idea was dumb, never going to happen even told that there are already plenty of other companies offering the same thing you are.
Meet perseverance
What made these very company names or their products a household name is “PERSEVERANCE”. No matter what these business operators were told they never once thought they should or would ever give up, they did not and neither should any of us.
Constructive criticism
While Logic encourages any business operator start up or established, with a company net worth of $20.00 or $100,000,000,000,000.00 trillion dollars to stay focused, remain undistracted and to never need for a day off, because this would surely be a sign of true weakness and it should be that your “PASSION” is all things you desire.
Your business should be your life, if it is not then it is not your desire to be a business operator since to Logic for an example a vacation is my work my dreams ands it is my “PASSION”.
Relaxing, there comes a time
Vacations and raising children is all good and well, at a point a liter work schedule and delegation is a practical aspect but rest assured, the business operator will not ever really ever take his or her eye off of the total “FOCUS”, the “PASSSION” or their will for “PERSEVERANCE”.
Logical Advice
Get a mentor, Logic has a great mentor, my father for without him we Catnip and Logic could not have accomplished even the level we are at today.
Direction & Guidance
It is necessary, you might want to seek out a person that works for or runs their own business and has a track record of some measurable success they are out there, maybe in your community, they are willing and they are essential to your businesses culture and overall success, trust me on this advice, I do not give it very often and I never give it lightly.
