I work with clients from New York to Jerusalem, and get to work on the road, most recently beachside in Cuba and Brazil. Now I get to work when I want, how I want, and with people who inspire me. Entrepreneurship takes grit, but the rewards are definitely worth reaping. Thanks to Rick Sloboda, Webcopyplus ! #20- Photo Credit: Mel Judson.

You''re left with no cottage industry of users--a SaaS Cuba, where you can seemingly keep a 1950''s car running forever. Unfortunately, the market turned out to be smaller than we had hoped for the potential paid features of the product, so it has to go away. Is there an opportunity here, perhaps?

Now, that doesn’t mean you should run away to Cuba for six weeks right off the bat. So once you’re a little farther along—after you have things figured out and have a good market fit—as the CEO you need to start thinking about working ON the business instead of IN the business.

While Clouds over Cuba represents something more apocalyptic, it is still part of the ‘what if’ narrative. We might also consider the famous Japanese rock star Hatsuen Miku. Her concerts sell out, she has adoring fans, but she’s not real, she is a hologram… ‘Anime’ Hard to believe until you see this.
