Hello and welcome to lucky edition #13 of the Carnival of Entrepreneurship. The CoE is a traveling small business blog post collection published every Thursday.

I received several great submissions covering excellent topics. Without further delay, here are my favorite picks:

• Matt Inglot gives 5 excuses why someone can’t become an entrepreneur, and what aspiring business owners can do to overcome The Barriers to Starting Your Own Business.

• Chris Pearson suggests finding a niche to become an expert in so that you can Kiss Corporate Life Goodbye.

• Dave G. writes about his success with Google Adsense in the post Adsense = Free Car and Free Home.

• Rob May offers sound advice on Pre-Entrepreneurship: What To Do When You Are Waiting.

• Phylameana lila Désy is attempting to harness good chi through Feng Shui In Her Home Office. I love Feng Shui and believe in the power of energy flow and conceptual symmetry.

• David Lorenzo teaches us how to take advange of chance meetings through Mastering the Random Encounter.

• Jack Yoest compares the anticipation created by marketing to Selling the Great Wall of China. Great pictures, Jack!

That concludes this week’s Carnival of Entrepreneurship post. Submit your blog article for consideration into CoE #14.
