Title: "Whatever does not kill you...."

Outline: Friedrich Nietzshe is credited with the origins of this quote "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." There is no more apt description for the life of an entrepreneur - much of the true learning and inspiration in business comes from the extremes of both success and hardship. In today's talk I hope to share with the audience a couple of my "near death" experiences as an entrepreneur.
