I've been in this phase where business ideas just seem to pop into my head. They're not all the "<a title="Twitter CEO Evan Williams to entrepreneurs: Think big, look outside the Valley" href="http://digital.venturebeat.com/2010/03/15/twitter-evan-williams/" target="_blank">wouldn't it be awesome if..." </a>ideas yet (initial ideas almost never are). But I've now come to realize, that if you are chasing two rabbits, both will escape.

So I decided to read about focus and here's what I've picked up from John Maxwell's book <a title="John Maxwell Talent is never enough" href="http://www.amazon.com/Talent-Never-Enough-Discover-Choices/dp/0785214038" target="_blank">'Talent is never enough</a>'
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>"If you want to be successful, you must focus on what you can do, not what you can't"</strong> </span></p>

We are currently building up an exciting interactive site to create 'productive connections' that will immerse youths in the crucial skills they need for their venture; distribution, social media marketing, new media marketing, financial management, raising funds...

We will go very public with our journey in building a community around the Budding CEOs cause, and would love to have you join us in the experience.

We believe in adopting a very open approach to building our company. To get the latest updates, become a <a title="Budding CEOs fanpage" href="http://www.Facebook.com/BuddingCEOs" target="_blank">fan on facebook</a>, leave your mark at our <a title="Sign me up!" href="http://www.buddingceos.com/contact-us/" target="_blank">contact page</a> or join us in a <a title="Seize any opportunity" href="http://www.BuddingCEOs.com/opportunity" target="_blank">simple conviction</a> and we'll be happy to tell you about both the ups and downs of building a community of users.

To leave you with something good, learn about the 5 game mechanics for creating engagement by Amy Jo Kim in the slideshare presentation. ]]></description>
