Lesson #4: In Following Your Passion, You Become Your Own Best Customer
How were they able to devote themselves day and night to manufacturing their mighty machines? Why were they so hell bent on ensuring the highest standards of quality? And what drove them to dedicate themselves to the same business for the majority of their adult lives? William Harley and the Davidson brothers didn’t just make motorcycles – they lived and breathed them. They were, in fact, their own biggest fans. It was in pursuing the one thing they were passionate about that they were able to create such a classic tale of entrepreneurial success in America.

Why New Year Resolutions Don’t Work!
Every New Year’s Eve millions of people all over the globe make resolutions for the coming year. Every year they look back disappointed that yet another year has come and gone and their goals haven’t been achieved again. They feel like losers and they lie to themselves again by solemnly pledging to shape up, be stronger and do better next year.

What Does An Androgynous Cow, The Life Lessons of a Father, & Closing More Sales Have To Do With Each Other? Only Learning To Ask One of The Most Powerful Qualifying AND Closing Questions You Can Ever Ask a Prospect! This weekend, as most, Netflix delivered right to my mailbox another movie for the kids. My six and seven year old boys, like most I’d imagine, love animated movies. Barnyard The Movie, who stars somewhat androgynous animated cows, is certainly not the best movie my family has ever watched. But here’s the thing;

The Dawn of Pokemon: Tajiri Launches His Game
Tajiri was no stranger to video games. In the early 1980s, he had won a contest sponsored by Sega that involved making a video game. With his “Game Freak” colleagues, Tajiri had also created his first video game, Quinty, which was published by Namco. But in 1991, Tajiri discovered something that he thought was revolutionary: the Game Boy. When he saw two boys playing a game together, connecting their Game Boys by a link cable, Tajiri immediately began to think of the possibilities. “I saw Game Boy when it was first released,” says Tajiri. “The idea for Pokémon clicked in my mind. The basic idea for Pokemon seemed a good fit for Game Boy.”

Get a Grip On Your Time Before Your Kids Grow Up
A few years ago I attended a presentation from Parenting Expert and well-known author, Stephen Biddulph on "Raising Boys". My son, Trent was 11 at the time so I was interested to hear what Stephen had to say. In fact, so were the 800 other parents in the room! The key point that I picked up on was that boys from the age of 6 -14 really need 'time' with their dads. That is the most influential period in their lives when they bond with him. And the type of time they need is not all thrown into a 'once a week' or 'month' block or some exotic holiday once a year, they need to spend time with their sons on a regular basis. Otherwise how can you build a strong and stable relationship?

Doing Business but Suffering in Silence
Women entrepreneurs fall victim in part to economic abuse due to familial socialization from the time of birth. From a tender age, socialization which is the process of inheriting norms, customs and ideologies differentiates girls from boys. As boys grow up, they learn to be the head of their future homes as well as being the main (if not only) breadwinners. Girls in turn are socialized to be the home makers and caregivers.

The Secret of Growth-How to get Compensated more
The other day, during one of my regular visits to my retail stores, I happened to give a small pep talk to my boys at the shop. The boys found it very valuable and insightful, so I guess I might as well share it with you. So what did I tell them during that pep talk that left my team feeling inspired? I asked them, “Why is it that you, working as a technician, working in a hot and humid environment, and physically involved in hard manual labor, get paid so low compared to a manager who sits in an air-conditioned environment with no physical labor to his credit?” The answer that I got was, ‘Because the manager is more educated than us’, ‘Because the manager manages the whole show’, ‘Because the manager makes decisions’, etc. Now, let me ask YOU the same question. What is your answer?

Top 10 Questions to Ask Your Prospects Before You Ask for the Business
When I was in high school, my girlfriends and I often envied the boys' prerogative of asking for phone numbers, dances, and dates, since the only time it was proper for girls to call boys was to invite them to the Sadie Hawkins dance. It wasn't fair, we fumed, that the guys got to do all the asking, and the girls had to wait to be asked.

The Freedom of Naked
As a parent of two boys, I have a perspective that does not include that of a father of little girls. And while the same behavior may be normal, I have no experience from which to make the same judgment. What is it about little boys and dancing naked? This supposedly common behavior that some may consider unspeakable is not limited to my own two little human examples, is it? There is something revealing about this behavior and the pun is definitely intended. This lack of restriction and confinement must be somewhat liberating to the normal single digit age human boy. The common after bath ritual must promote some feeling of euphoria that I have long forgotten but should probably try to remember.

Education and Communication Build Commitment
Shortly after Vanessa, our second daughter was born, my wife Heather was talking with six year old Chris, our only son, about how much she liked having a boy in the family. "If you like little boys so much, how come you brought home another girl?" Chris tearfully rebutted. Chris and his sister Jenn had been hoping for a younger sibling of their own sex. When Vanessa was born, Chris felt like he'd lost. He didn't understand the process. He assumed his Mom and Dad chose the sex of their kids.

What A Beautiful Year
It was a weird year, and in many ways, a difficult year. It was a year of uncertainty, even a year of adversity for many people. It was a mean year for politics, a brutal year for business, and a disastrous year for the economy. But it was also a beautiful year....
