My friend Giselle came into my office very upset. She said," what am I going to do? I just heard that my department is getting laid off?"

I asked her if she was sure it would include her? Giselle said, " I am not sure, but just the thought makes me sick."

I said, "let's go to lunch and try and think up some things you can do to get prepared."

While we were eating, we discussed sereval options including getting a transfer to another department, becomming a stay at home mom and then I mentioned to Giselle, " this may be the motivating factor you need to push into opening your art gallery." Giselle said," oh but I don't know where to start?"

I said, " well I have a great book you can read, that is full of wonderful ideas on everything you need to start a business. It is called the Art of the Start,and I will bring it in for you tomorrow." Giselle said," thanks, do you really think I can undertake this? and I said," I think you should and this book will really help you out."
