The author's point about "entrepreneurs" not being exclusive to the world of startups is exactly what I hope to show with my book this fall. It's a dangerous mindset because in this internet age, we need more people to be thinking about themselves as entrepreneurs.

I am reading a good book by Daniel Pink called "To Sell Is Human" at the moment, which makes the point that many people who do not think they are working in "sales" actually are. It sounds trite, but he does go into a lot of useful detail and advice from there - and this ties into your point. I look forward to your book.
Thanks! Kindle'd!

Hey, I'm reading that same book! It is very fascinating so far, and I recommend it to, um, pretty much everybody.

Yes, exactly. The premise might not exactly be an earth-shattering revelation, but the book is fascinating nonetheless.
