Well, after 10 years of experimenting on himself, he's proud to finally announce the cure that lasts. G.M.C. would like to say to anyone who has or has a friend with Colitis. IT CAN BE BEAT! ---update December 1, 2015, The cure lasted 6 months until started adding back soda and other poisons...Good News Tho... medical marijuana, especially CBD strain edibles like CBD Caramel Chocoalte from BhangChocolate.com are delicious and really help...at the time of this update. G.M.C. is running for President of the United States of America...disability and all...Stay Strong America...we're getting our millions back and ridding poisons from our lives...you can sign the new declaration of independence here and get your share of the money stolen from the world by banksters and cohorts... https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10153706444764664&id=663959663...

      For striving entrepreneurs everywhere.

      They say:

      Good judgment comes from experience. Yet experience comes from bad judgment.

      Well, I've had and seen my share of Bad Judgment.

      I only wish I had a book like this when I first started out as an entrepreneur, it would have saved me a lot of time, money and aggravation.

      And I imagine if other CEOs, whose failures I witnessed, would have read a book like this, they may have had a better shot at success.
