Characteristics of a Successful Entrepreneur

Entrepreneur took a look a couple of weeks ago at what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur and the piece has floated around in my mind for a time now.

Author James Stephenson lists 25 common characteristics of successful entrepreneurs for the article. (It's actually an excerpt from his book, the Ultimate Home Based Business Handbook.) Some of those characteristics are obvious and we talk about them a lot: successful entrepreneurs do something they enjoy, successful entrepreneurs take what they do seriously, successful entrepreneurs management money wisely.

Some of the characteristics of a successful entrepreneur don't get as much attention. Successful entrepreneurs use technology. Successful entrepreneurs make themselves accessible. Successful entrepreneurs become known as experts.

It's an interesting list. You can look through all 25 list items here.

Grace Digital Audio Creates Floating Speaker and Keeps iPods from

Every day, iPods everywhere die needlessly in swimming pools and Jacuzzis across the globe. These senseless deaths no longer have to happen thanks to Grace Digital Audio. They have just released the Aqua Sounder Floating speaker that connects wirelessly to an included iPod / iPhone dock. Not only will your iPod live to see another day, but you will be able to enjoy your music while you splash and frolic about.

I know I am making fun of the device, but in all honestly, it is pretty cool. The sphere you see in the picture is a wireless speaker that floats in the pool or hot tube and streams audio wireless from the iPhone charging dock. The ball also includes mood lighting that can add some ambiance or party lighting to your pool soiree. The range of the transmitter and receiver is approximatly 150 feet, which should give you plenty of party space. The receiver is rechargable, and it should last approximately 6 hours on a single charge.

$149.99 seems like a high price for a toy, but if you need a waterproof speaker, this is probably the best one on the market. Grace Digital Audio has done your iPod a favor here; don't let the Aqua Sounder go to waste.
