Chase one rabbit

Here's some ancient wisdom from a Chinese proverb:

"If you chase two rabbits, both will escape."

A useful thought for all creative entrepreneurs.

It can be applied to:
- deciding which creative speciality to choose, from all the creative things you can do.
- deciding which particular market segment to focus on, rather than trying to appeal to many types of customer.

This is discussed in more detail in my article: Create your own Business Formula.

I have a very bad habit of chasing too many rabbits I am now trying to chase only one and that is teaching others how to sell on eBay problem is I have chased the wrong rabbits all my life when I do catch one the results are fantastic its rare though not too many rabbits round here at the moment.

I need to learn how to catch those rabbits that will pay big dividends

I'm really enjoying your writing.

I have one have been chasing other peoples rabbits. I am having much more success with being focused on my own rabbit.

Liked the hedgehog analogy also.
