As I think about why I want to do my particular venture, I keep stumbling over the concept of profits. It doesn't become a business venture unless there are profits.  Otherwise it remains a social or community service. Or a failed concept.  I want to make sure that I stay true to myself.

In preparation for the initial presentation, I watched ABC's Shark Tank. What struck me most was that successful pitches were delivered with certainty not arrogance.  This is a long road with challenges unanticipated.  Is this simply class or is it something I can figure out how to do?
