[VIDEO] George Deeb Discusses Entrepreneurial Mindsets for Success on ASBN

I was recently interviewed by the Atlanta Small Business Network (ASBN), an online "television network" serving the small business community, about how to choose the right entrepreneurial mindset to maximize the odds of success.  This includes comparing the differences between "driven to win" vs. "fear of failure".  I thought this video turned out great, and I wanted to share it with all of you, to help you assess your startup's "psychology".  I hope you like!!

Thanks again to Jim Fitzpatrick and the ASBN team for having me on the show.  I look forward to our next interview together.
