This article highlights how to get out of a reactionary "fire fighting" mode and gain control of your time.
Just Because You Are Impatient Does NOT Mean I Have To Move Any Faster
Have we evolved into beings that have become so selfish and self absorbed that we have forgotten about our own self control? The ability to keep your mental, emotional and physical being, in check, requires self-control. The inability to do so is a sign that you are "out of control." When you easily lose your self control, you will most certainly fire off outbursts of anger, temper and blame on others.
What You Control
You may not be able to control if your job gets cut, but you can control whether you're a high performer who your boss is fighting to keep. You may not be able to control how quickly you get another job, but you can control the number of daily contacts you make in your search and how you "show up," future-focused, at the interview. You may not be able to control the amount of work you get, but you do control whether you're responding as a victim or taking action toward developing your skills and contacts for a new future.

Are you following a Sales Process?
If not, you are not only wasting your time, but you are also losing sales because of it. You think you are in control but in reality you are out of control. Have you ever been rejected? If your answer is yes, you have just proven that you are not in control of the sales process; however, the buyer is in control. Isn’t it your job and responsibility as a sales professional to qualify the prospects and to reject them if they are not qualified? Who is really qualifying? Who is really in control?
HANDLING EMPLOYEE CONFLICT

Physical damage coverage protects your car from almost any potential physical hazard.

For example, physical damage coverage will not cover your costs when you need to change your oil. Benefits For one thing, physical damage coverage protects your car and your financial situation. Even if you are a safe driver, you cannot predict random outcomes of natural or human damage. Physical damage ensures that you do not have to spend a fortune on another expensive car. If you lease out your car or if you are currently carrying out a loan, it is required for you to have physical damage coverage. It is optional for everyone else. If you have a car
WOM…It’s An Art, It’s Science, It’s Theirs
If you went to/read about SXSW (check Wikipedia) you saw that folks were doing everything for word of mouth (WOM) buzz. They'll do it all the time, every time. Big secret though? Those folks don't have one iota of control over WOM! Nope that belongs to the people we're feeding the messages to. You know "them." Problem is they can turn on you in a heartbeat and gawd it ain't pretty. When that happens it's damage control and you try to save the vital parts...that's when you call the PR folks to blame...not us, them!
