Inspiration for Young Business Entrepreneurs from the New Release eBook, Old Masters Young Guns by John Ross (JR)!

    SAN FRANCISCO, CA, March 24, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- What Young Entrepreneurs can Learn from Old Masters in Business

Forget Facebook - young entrepreneurs can still learn a thing or two from the Old Masters such as Henry Ford, Steve Jobs and Richard Branson.

Perth leadership expert and author of the recently released eBook Old Masters Young Guns John Ross (JR) said regardless of trends such as social media, core business principles never really change.

"The older generation often complains about Generation X or Y spending too much time on social media or in front of a computer, but it's simply the way they communicate," said Mr Ross.

"The core qualities of business don't change and they can be applied no matter how much technology advances because business is fundamentally about people," he said.

"Social media can be very much about seeking out, finding and developing, nurturing and maintaining personal connections."

"The aim is still the same as it was generations ago - and that is to use connections to open doors, find strength and support and provide you with new opportunities and experiences."

Mr Ross said young people could still learn a thing or two from the Old Masters such as:
- Set clear goals: Be a visionary
- Surround yourself with good quality people: Rise above the pack
- Under promise, over deliver: Go the extra mile
- Show respect for other people: Know that you can learn a lot from those who have gone before you
- Persist and persevere: Staying the course and don't give up
- Be humble
- Take consistent action every day

"Young people can achieve the same level of success with the same core wisdoms that have withheld through the generations."

"We can all play a role in facilitating the development of our young leaders just by sharing with them the basic wisdoms that have been and will always be around for generations to come," he said.

Mr Ross is the co-author of Old Masters Young Guns, a eBook that is his 'take' on doing business today, based on those pearls of wisdom handed down across so many years of invaluable experience.

His passion is mentoring young leaders (Young Guns), and has connected that thread with chapters on everything from goal setting, persistence, relationship building, seizing the day, and daring to dream.

Each chapter is supported by numerous carefully chosen quotations from Old Masters such as Confucius, Albert Einstein, Mother Theresa, and Abraham Lincoln.

Mr Ross hopes that this new release eBook will be picked up by the 'Old Masters' of our generation and will be passed on to their 'Young Guns' entrepreneurs so the wisdoms will continue to carry on the test of time.

About The Author

With personable charm, ready wit and hard work, JR worked his way up from sweeping floors in a motor vehicle spare parts department in rural Northam, West Australia, through to a highly paid and responsible sales and management positions with two of Australia's foremost companies.

Far from being disadvantaged, dealing with dyslexia spurred him on and inspired him to achieve his true potential. Taking a leaf from the example of Og Mandino ('Out of adversity seek the seed of far greater advantage') JR read his way to the top and over time has excelled in a very successful business role in entrepreneurial leadership and multi-level marketing.

Jr is a man on a mission, and this inspiring book reflects the passion he feels for helping others, 'It's is time to give back and provide inspiration and motivation for those who are not clear about their path and are seeking direction and ideas as well as reassurance'.

The real reason for this book is not to showcase personal business success, but to provide inspiration for those setting out on their journey ... young people, 'Young Guns' especially, who want to step out and succeed in their own right.

Old Masters Young Guns is designed to be different, and is dedicated to all Young Guns who aspire to be the best that they can possibly be - just as JR reached out for inspiration, in the heady days of the 1960s. You'll find aspects of the JR journey threaded throughout the book, working hand in glove with the wisdom of the Old Masters who he has read so thoroughly and deeply.

This is not a book that is necessarily going to lead you to riches overnight or grab you with new revelations. But it will, we hope, make you stop and think about some of the core values we need to possess in order to be both a good corporate citizen and a good person.
