Entrepreneurs and Business Managers Are Comfortable With Flying But The Exception To a Safe Landing Almost Always Will be Deadly
Entrepreneurs and business managers who have to fly often because of the nature of their business feel comfortable on board and enjoy racking up frequent flier miles. But don't take for granted that all your flights will result in a safe landing. The exception almost always is fatal.

Open Minds and Goal Setting
I was taught 25 years ago that a pure scientist has the most open of minds. The reason being quite simple in that unless you’ve conducted an experiment and developed proof one way or the other, how do you know it to be true or not. I was also informed by a scientist that I met on an airplane many moons ago that unless it gets funded it probably won’t be explored. But that’s another story.

Do CEO\'s Overcompensate for Their Strengths?
As I sit in the Seattle airport waiting to board my delayed flight to Anchorage (Dear Alaska Airlines: Since it’s a “mechanical delay”, please feel free to delay it as long as you want until you are absolutely sure the airplane works), I was pondering a conversation I had at the very end of Gnomedex with an entrepreneur that I’d met for the first time.
New Beginnings
An airplane uses up to 90% of it’s power on the take-off, but once it gets to cruising height, around 36,000 to 41,000 feet, it only uses around 65% of it’s power. Like getting fit; getting fit is tough, but staying fit is easier. This applies to learning a new skill or starting a new venture, if you’ll excuse the pun.
Lesson #1: Stick With It
“When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it,” said Ford.
Six a day, six days a week
Need a basic but realistic recipe for a balanced diet? Go for six ‘airplane-sized’ meals a day, six days a week (no, not the size of an actual airplane…but the size of the meals they serve you on board).
Entrepreneurs Caution Customers that Boaters Who Ignore Common Sense Drown in Their Own Foolishness
Entrepreneurs in the boating industry understand their customers face possible accidents and fatalities whenever they are on the water. Entrepreneurs want boaters to understnad that if they ignore common sense on the water they will drown in their own ignorance.
Polysyllabic Fog
If your organization has problems with people not following instructions, you need to read this article. It points out a habitual problem that can be costly to organizations in terms of lost productivity, waste, and even employee accidents.

Government Takeover Just Doesn't Work
I'm not advocating text/driving. It's dangerous. Before it was against the law, people did it, they had accidents, and some people even died. I am, however, suggesting that there are better ways to attack such a problem than to make a law against it. And this new study proves I'm right. If even one more person died in a traffic fatality because of this law, it's too many.
Control is an Illusion
The reality is that we can’t control our environment; the economy, our buyers, families, partners or neighbors, the waiter at the restaurant, the valet with our car or airplane mechanic fixing the problem. Often we can’t even control ourselves.
Improvement Planning for Taking Charge of Change
Effective learning and capability development doesn't happen just because we want it to. For example, empowering without enabling isn't just foolish it's unethical. It's like putting a complete novice at the controls of a clunky old airplane and "empowering" him or her to land in the middle of a ferocious thunderstorm.
