What I Learned While Writing My Book
Posted December 16th, 2008 by Bart GraggFor those of you that ever thought about being an author let me encourage you as I was encouraged by my mentor, Jim Horan, author of The One Page Business Plan.

When I asked him to mentor me through the process he told he would under one condition - “Bring full-on Bart! Don’t hold back. Write it the way you see it and we’ll go from there.” Later he then encouraged me with these words - “Don’t make it perfect, just get it done.”
I followed all of that advice. Here is what I learned while writing “Managing or Mangling - A Brief Plea to Executives for Sanity in Management!”:
