Play the Point, Not the Score
I watched Rafael Nadal play two incredible matches at the Australian Open over the weekend. In the semifinals, he defeated Fernando Verdasco in a 5 hour and 14 minute match 6-7(4) 6-4 7-6(2) 6-7(1) 6-4. He returned to the court a little over 40 hours later and defeated Roger Federer 7-5 3-6 7-6(3) 3-6 6-2 in a match lasting 4 hours and 23 minutes. If you are a tennis player, you know this is an amazing physical and emotional achievement.

A Strategic Look At Email Subject Lines From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
What are the first things you look at before you open your emails? What two items determine whether or not you open the email? You will most likely view the “from” email address first & then look at the “subject “ line next before deciding to open your email. The “subject” line is really the equivalent of a newspaper headline and it is a very important factor in a person’s decision of whether or not to “read on” or in the case of email, “to open.” Writing a great “subject” line or a great headline is a challenge. You only have a few seconds and only a few words to make your “subject” line compelling and urgent enough to get the reader’s attention and then “open and read on.” Your strategic thinking business coach offers the following strategic tips on writing effective “subject” lines for your emails.

How many people does it take to change a light bulb
I was told about a recent article in the Weekend Australian Magazine. The article looked at a study by the University of Chicago. that found that if we excluded all animal based foods, including dairy and eggs, from our diet, that change would benefit the environment more than buying an eco-friendly car. Apparently 23% of a typical Australian diet comes from animal sources and so generates almost 1.5 tonnes more greenhouse gases per person per year than a vegan diet of the same calories.

You Get More Flies with Sugar
Let's be serious. If you're having problems, anyone asking you about them already knows what's up. So cowboy-up and face the music. Be open and honest. You don't have to share the dirty laundry and all the details. But you can be honest, open and paint a picture that is true. People respect other people that open the kimono and tell the truth. And guess what, customers are people!

Be Open to New Ideas
It is easy to say "be open to new ideas" and most of us believe we have an open mind. Nothing could be further from the truth. We are all stuck with an enormous array of paradigms that limit our ability to see the possibiliies. To be really open minded is a skill that takes a lot of effort to develop.

Business credit remains tough in difficult times
There’s been a lot of talk about the impact of the global financial crisis on interest rates and access to finance. Whilst the banks maintain that they are providing finance, and certainly that appears to be the case with residential mortgages, the availability of finance to business remains an issue. It is finally receiving a greater level of attention in the mainstream press, with The Australian and Australian Finance Review both publishing articles on 27 March.
Open Enrollment Health Plans
There comes a time during the year where health insurance companies open their doors for open enrollment where consumers have the ability to make changes to their current plans. Open enrollment refers to a time period where all members within an insurance group can enroll in particular benefit packages. When a health insurance company has these periods of open enrollment, they are obligated take on applicants without assurance of insurability. There are certain exceptions, so applying early on and being diligent in understanding your specific health insurance policies and procedures will help you get the best deal.

Hip Replacement Recall Attorney Says DuPuy Misled Patients
After receiving findings that its ASR hip implant was faulty, DuPuy Orhtopedics actually waited a year before sending out a warning on March 5, 2010 to American surgeons that its implant had a higher than expected failure rate. Worse yet, the warning letters were not sent to American surgeons until three months after DePuy voluntarily withdrew its hip implant from the Australian market in December 2009. DePuy continued to promote and sell its faulty hip implant in America for six months after the Australian withdrawal before finally recalling the ASR hip implant in the U.S. in August 2010.

How to Be Open-Minded to New Ideas
If you have definite ideas about how things are or how they should be, you’ve probably had someone tell you to “keep an open mind.” Having an open mind is important to succeed in life. Embracing, or at least considering, new ideas and technologies is vital to our personal growth. Are you willing to consider someone else’s opinion? Can you look at facts that may seem suspect and analyze them without bias? If you’re open-minded, you can be flexible when met with new ideas. It means you can adapt to new experiences. Being able to think critically is a vital component of being open-minded. In our quickly changing technological world, it’s important to keep an open mind in order to keep up and stay current, rather than missing out on all the new things around us...

With the US Presidential Election season obviously underway – even in Australia we are regaled with the search for a republican candidate - the recent leadership issues in the Australian government and the incipient leadership issues arising in the Australian opposition, it is clear that the question of “Who is a leader?” needs to be addressed.
