Ted states, “Now in my slower-paced lifestyle, I have the pleasure of working leisurely with a national team of young independent entrepreneurs who are applying these timeless principles in their businesses. Some want to earn a few hundred dollars of extra income each month, but most want to build it to several thousand dollars or more each month. It’s up to each person (over 300 of the young people I work with earn between $10,000 and $20,000 each month). Build it to work for you! After reading my book, my team will ask you: Why you believe you have the right mindset to reach your goals?”

I wrote the first edition of this book, sharing personal life experiences decades ago, offering timeless business principles for success, and helping young entrepreneurs avoid the pitfalls I had already encountered. Now, in 2025, these timeless principles are even more relevant, but the way business is conducted now is dramatically different. After reading this updated Special Edition, Ted offers his readers two fantastic business opportunities, each different. Each of these he is personally accessible for support.

About The Author

Ted Hood

Ted, though retired (yet always accessible to his young team), resides in Maryland.

Ted loves to write—it’s his pleasure and a lifelong passion that brings him joy and fulfillment.

Supporting and mentoring the younger generation in business remains his daily satisfaction. He finds joy in helping others reach their full potential, encouraging each individual to avoid the challenges he once faced. His clear, practical advice—rooted in personal experience—is invaluable to anyone, whether in business or not.

Ted recently authored Metamorphosis, a fictional romance inspired by his own emotional transformation. His early focus on business left him emotionally distant, but Metamorphosis beautifully captures his journey of growth and self-discovery. It is available wherever books are sold.

He is currently working on a sequel, set twenty years after Ronald and Melina’s marriage, which explores his ongoing spiritual transformation.

About The Book

Building A Purposeful Business

“Building a Purposeful Business” presents a comprehensive framework for creating and sustaining a successful small business enterprise. Author Ted Hood delivers practical insights grounded in real-world experience, addressing the fundamental challenges that entrepreneurs face when transitioning from corporate environments to independent business ownership.

The book is structured into four progressive sections: Foundations, Avoiding the Pitfalls, The Power of Concentration, and Operating a Home-Based Business. Each section builds upon core principles while providing actionable strategies for implementation. Ted Hood introduces the concept of the “deadly toos” – common behavioral patterns that undermine business success, including excessive emotional involvement, over-identification with the enterprise, and inadequate leverage of resources.

Ted Hood advice about avoiding the 'too anxious' trap saved my sanity. I was making emotional decisions when business was slow, and then getting impatient when things picked up. His suggestions for managing worry and sticking to your plans really helped me stay steady. The book taught me that ups and downs are normal, and you don't have to panic every time something changes. My business is much more stable now.
