EMAIL RES-CUE
| |
| For someone who loves in-person and voice contact, I’m baffled by how much time I spend sending and responding to emails. It’s so easy to use email as the default for doing business, for building relationships (and now even email is being slowly usurped by social media software). But I stand resolute in my campaign to make sure we don’t trade humanity for technology. Having been both perpetrator and victim of emails gone bad, I offer some ways to bail yourself out of the email jail, and match the right message with the right medium. |

The Dark Horse of Success: Cowell Becomes a Hit
| |
| Now that Cowell had started his company, he needed to find an artist that would help take it to the top. That was when he met Sinitta, an aspiring pop singer, who Cowell immediately both asked out on a date and signed a contract with. In little time, her single “So Macho” had become a smash hit in the UK. At the same time, Cowell struck up a friendship with successful producer Peter Waterman and, in his own words, “followed him around like a dog,” in order to learn as much as he could about the industry. |

The Rhythms of My Life
| |
| I was in a board meeting yesterday with a company planning a major commercial release of their product “at the end of summer”. We managed to turn this into 8/31/09 at 11:59:59pm pacific time (since I don’t believe you can release something unless there is a time/date stamp associated with it.) As part of this discussion, we spent some time discussing the notion of a daily / weekly / monthly rhythm for both the CEO/CTO as well as the product team. |

How self talk can account for 90% of your success in your home based business.
| |
| Life is meant to be wonderful – we don’t ask for much: a good steady income, a perfect relationship, a happy family life, financial security, good health and happiness. So why is it that most of us during the course of our lives, never ever achieve even one of these things? Is it fate? Is it karma? Are our lives decided on the date of conception? Is our birth date and time auspicious or inauspicious? What causes some of us to have and others to have not?
It comes down to the way you think and your ability to imagine. Why does it usually take a catastrophe or some major disappointment for us to want to make changes to our lives? We get bogged down in the practical, in the mundane and the minutae of our lives and being creatures of habit, never think about making changes. What a waste of a life - accepting mediocrity. |

Curiosity kills the cat but wins the customer
| |
| If you’re searching online for a blind date, you can narrow the field demographically to, let’s say, people between age 35 and 45 who live in Denver. And you can take a peek at the all-important photograph. But is that enough information to make even one valid assumption about someone? Before you commit to that blind date, you’ll want to know what kind of personality they have and what their interests and values are, among other things. That same kind of curiosity about your customers gives you a deep understanding of what they need or want-and serves as the basis for a passionate long-term relationship.
It may be time to add intellectual curiosity to the competencies you require in your sales, marketing and customer service staff, and embed curiosity in your company culture.

Maturity is About Being True to Yourself
| |
| From age 50 to 60 has become perhaps the most crucial time for reviewing your life. Nature seems to say we have matured to a point whereby its time to again think about our life’s big picture. It’s time to re-connect with your essence - the person you really are, the product of your seed, your genes, your natural selection process. The person you ‘just are’ – a mixture of your natural talents, skills and passionate interests.
It’s not about what you’ve done in life to date. Rather, its about allowing your essence to rekindle its natural desire to pursue ‘the magnificence of uncertainty’. Do it while you still have the health and strength to do so. |
