In the reading titled "Exuding Passion in Your Venture", the biggest surprise to me was that you should convey personal success. I always thought to be humble with your success, but in the passage it makes sense to not hide your accomplishments because "people like to believe that they are backing a winner, so talking about your victories is a sure way to get people to see you in that light". They'll want to work harder, because they know that there are more likely to achieve success.
What confused me was how "loneliness" can be a source of stress. I thought loneliness in the sense where an entrepreneur might not have a team built for his organization just yet, but in the passage it was referring to having no one to confide in.
Two questions I'd ask the author are: What kind of psychic risks can occur after suffering financial catastrophes. To deal with stress, sharing experiences through networking was listed, but where does on start? What if you're from a small town that isn't really media savvy compared to a big city?
I slightly disagree with the fact that networking could help you deal with stress. If it were me, that would be the last thing I do. Hearing about other's peoples' logic of how to run a company would only stress me out. I'd feel like if I'm not doing it their way, then I'm doing it the wrong way.
