A Note from Case Lane
This book is for all of you who have thought about changing your life by becoming an entrepreneur and starting your own business.
The life dream of entrepreneurship presents a vision of being in charge of your own time and schedule to make spontaneous decisions, travel off-season, and enjoy the best there is in life. When you reach your life dream, you throw off the 9-to-5 grind, wave goodbye to rotten office politics, and live your days on your own terms.
People who become entrepreneurs have an opportunity to live their own personal freedom, and contribute to a dynamic global economy by providing value to the marketplace. I am committed to helping people reach this fantastic goal
Entrepreneurship allows you as an individual to create your own definition of financial and professional freedom. In an era when globalization and technology are changing the world economy, you can hedge your bets against being left behind by creating your own opportunities and security.
My interest in entrepreneurship and lifestyle freedom began years ago when I would see successful people living fulfilled, fun productive lives and ask - how did they do it? People around me did not seem to know. But over time as I read, observed and connected more with entrepreneurship and business, I realized people were individually creating the positive world they lived in.
As I spoke about the value of entrepreneurship to other people, many told me I was wrong. I was told starting a business is risky and difficult and only for the rich or lucky. But then I began traveling the world, and discovered entrepreneurs in every country I lived and visited. Often, the people I met had been born into the humblest circumstances or had limited resources, but they were still determined to have their own businesses. I came to realize that entrepreneurship is about: what you want, how you think, and taking action. And I put together my observations to document, the 7 universal moves I have seen entrepreneurs make all over the world.
Now how did I get to this point where I have this knowledge and inspiration to share with you? First I have always been global, I was born in England, grew up in Canada and now live in California in the United States. Obsessed with education, I have five post secondary degrees: diploma in communications, BA in political science, MBA from UCLA, JD from Georgetown Law and MPS in Applied Economics from the University of Maryland. As an employee, I have worked as a reporter, diplomat in the Canadian Foreign Service, management consultant, operations executive in digital media in the entertainment industry and lawyer.
I have lived and worked in a dozen countries, and as a traveler, I have visited over one hundred countries and territories, every continent except Antarctica. So I capture ideas from the perspective of travel and adventure.
As an entrepreneur and global investor, I have united my education, experience, observations and determination, to encourage aspiring entrepreneurs to move forward toward their life dreams. By understanding the 7 universal moves you need to make to get the life you want through entrepreneurship, you can transform your life.
Starting a business is not only for the most clever or the hustler or the cheapskate or the visionary or the lucky or the hardest working or the liar or the cheater or the privileged or anyone who isn’t you.
Starting a business is for those who make the right moves.
Creating your own business puts you in control of your economic future and everything that goes with it, including your lifestyle choices, personal stability and overall well-being.
This book is for people like you who want to find your way to entrepreneurship and use business building to strengthen yourself, and external relationships while achieving a more secure future.
We are going around the world to learn the 7 universal moves and how to apply them to making your life dream come true.
