The E-Myth Revisited The EMyth Revisited by Michael Gerber. This is a powerful book, and I hated it the first time I read it but I think it saved our business.

Starting a business takes a special kind of personality and drive. It takes an I-can-do-it, we'll-make-it-work attitude and sometimes sheer willpower to get a fledgling business up and running. The same personality traits that create a small business can be the same personality traits that kill a small business in its first years.

If you're a confused, exhausted entrepreneur who can't understand why success doesn't feel successful, take a good look at "The E-Myth".
