- computer (preferably operational and with enough ram and processor power to run more than one propgram at a time)

- coffee. Lots of it.

- headphones. I don't want to listen to someone else's conversation, music, or other obnoxious noise while I'm working. thus the headphones are clamped securely to my head with a continuous play of classic and progressive rock.

- more coffee. With sugar and cream.

- sense of humor. Seriously.

- intelligence or at least a reasonable facsimile thereof.

- cat. An occasional five or ten minutes of dislodging the cat from a closet, cupboard, door (those of you with screen doors and cats understand), or desk drawer is theraputic.

- coffee.

- telephone. Cell phones work too. Whatever happens to be handy. Make sure you give prospective clients, partners, sponsors, affiliates, and the tooth fairy the CORRECT number.

- motivation. If you have to ask, you're not ready for this line of work. Part of my motivation is not having to go flip burgers.

- patience. Things don't always happen on your schedule. Besides, that Murphy fucker and his goddamn Law will follow you around like a shadow in summertime.

- thick skin. Rejection happens. So do insults, accusations, and outright lies. Be prepared.

- coffee........

- BUSINESS PLAN

- kind heart. "Do unto others" may be Biblical, but it's still a good plan, especially in business. Remember: you catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

- SENSE OF HUMOR

- and above all else: prozac. By the truckload.
