11 Ways To Drive Traffic Away From Your Website
While watching a Toronto Raptor basketball game I saw T.J. Ford, one of the fastest players in the league, rush down the court like a man possessed and proceed to throw the ball behind his back to a trailing Andrea Bargnani. The trouble was the ball sailed over the head of the seven-foot Bargnani into the second row of seats. Ford, himself, ended up with a beer and popcorn facial after landing in the lap of a front row patron. So what does this have to do with website design and marketing you ask? A lot.
A Website Without Video Is Like...
Do you like Jell-O? It's okay I guess; I mean it's not a hot fudge sundae is it? But if you add a little whip cream, then my friend you've got something worth calling dessert. My question to you is, does your website have that something extra, that dollop of whip cream on top that says, "oh mama let me at it," or does it just lie there squirming in your dish with the sound of Peggy Lee's voice ringing in your ears, "is that all there is?"

It’s about allowing your imagination to soar with ideas about what you want to accomplish in your life and how you want to show up authentically in the world.

Ah, The Sweet Taste of Victory!
Ah, The Sweet Taste of Victory! Do you remember those high school days and how you felt when your football team walked all over the biggest rival, or the basketball team walked away with the coveted state trophy? The energy... the excitement... the thrill of the win! I recently watched a movie, the Glory Road, which was the story of a basketball team who won the state championship - a victory against all odds. It was a poignant story that has spun around in my head for days now and finally settled in during another one of my crazy "shower moments" this morning!

Extending your Expectations
Earlier this week, I had a lengthy conversation with the head coach of a major college basketball team. We were discussing the recent NCAA tournament, better known as The Big Dance or March Madness. My friend, as a player, assistant coach, and now a head coach, has been to the tournament many times. There are 65 teams that make it to the tournament. Some get there by winning their conference while others are invited due to their national ranking, difficulty of schedule, or strength of their program.

Sales Coaching is Like Baseball - How Do You Rate?
Really? Whiffle Ball in the back yard? Sandlot? Little League? Babe Ruth? High School? American Legion? College? Cape Cod League? Independent League? First Round Draft Pick? Signed by a Major League Team? High Minors? Cup of Coffee in the Bigs? Utility Player on a Major League Team? Every Day Player? All Star? MVP? Hall of Fame? When it comes to coaching, most sales managers have done the baseball equivilent of Sandlot - they messed around at it and had some fun.

LEADERSHIP MEANS BEING EXCELLENT AT ANY PLACE, ANY TIME
I've been playing tennis for nearly five decades. I love the game and I hit the ball well, but I'm far from the player I wish I were. I've been thinking about this a lot the past couple of weeks, because I've taken the opportunity, for the first time in many years, to play tennis nearly every day. My game has gotten progressively stronger. I've had a number of rapturous moments during which I've played like the player I long to be. And almost certainly could be, even though I'm 58 years old. Until recently, I never believed that was possible. For most of my adult life, I've accepted the incredibly durable myth that some people are born with special talents and gifts, and that the potential to truly excel in any given pursuit is largely determined by our genetic inheritance.
Looking Beyond the Short-Termers
The search for life lesson’s goes beyond the boundaries of a specific discipline, expertise or interest. Few would argue that, in recent years, the world of business and sports have operated less like Mars and Venus, separate but equal, and more like Twin Peaks, separate, but connected by a common base. The most recent NCAA basketball tournament has been a bizarre display of predictions gone wild. Yet, what has been interesting has been some of the surrounding dialogue that pertains to building blocks, teamwork, consistency and the ultimate prize. In doing so, the NCAA basketball tournament has provided some unique insights that have a direct bearing on how a business can achieve consistent success.
From the Tennis Courts…Another Lesson in Life
When the wind kicks up, an unexpected gust can be like another player on the court. A good tennis player knows how to deal with this unexpected, unwelcome situation. In business and in life there are frequent unexpected and unwelcome circumstances that we must learn to cope with and handle successfully.
Kid’s Have Stress Too
Childhood has changed. Instead of pick-up baseball and basketball games on the corner lot, there are competitive travel leagues for kids as young as seven or eight.
Wooden You Like To Be Successful?
John Wooden is known as one of the finest basketball coaches in America. He took his UCLA team to the NCAA playoffs 10 of 12 years and was named coach of the Century by ESPN. John Wooden was a great teacher and coach. The brilliance of his teaching is that he focused on the mental aspect of the game as well as the technical skills of basketball. John Wooden repeatedly told his team that controlling emotions was at the core of winning the game.

How To Make Reality Catch Up.
In the late 1970s, Jim Fannin was coaching Adriano Panatta, one of the top-ranked tennis players in the world and a former French Open champion. He tells the story of Panatta’s quarterfinal match with one of the newcomers at an ATP tournament. “As the match unfolded, this low-ranked, left-handed, red-headed jerk of a guy has no respect for a top-ranked player in the world. He stalls. He berates an umpire. He yells at a ball kid. He crushes my player! We are humiliated!”
