I'm a big fan of the book and love MJ's concept of being monogamous to your business. Or at least your fist business right.

I've seen the people who jump onto every new "ground level" deal and I've personally watched them never really get anywhere. But if you never jump on an opportunity, you never get started.

The question is, when a (perceived) opportunity comes along, how do you know to "be true" and be monogamous with your business or to try the new opportunity?

Where's the line?

Are there any keys to knowing when it's OK to reach out and try the new opportunity?

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
