Sean Combs Godzilla
| |
| In 1998, a film was released that would introduce Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs to a new audience of music listeners. Starring Matthew Broderick and Hank Azaria, “Godzilla” opened in theatres across America to mixed reviews. It was yet another remake of the classic Japanese film “Gojira”, but this time, there were a few twists, one of which was the film’s soundtrack featuring rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in a joint venture with the guitarist of famed English rock band Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page. For Sean Combs, Godzilla was his chance to show people he wasn’t just a one-genre musician; he could rock it out with the best of them. |

Activity vs. Productivity
| |
| Most of us work very hard. We get up each day and spend eight hours or more doing something
we call work. If you talk to the most successful and the least successful persons you can find,
they will probably both tell you they are working extremely hard. If this is true, why are so few

What Happens When You Try to Hard To Sell?
| |
| If you are in an industry that has been impacted by the recession, and you are doing everything possible to continue to bring in revenue, then you are working twice as hard, twice as long and twice as smart. If not, you are probably failing right now. Twice as long is plenty obvious. Twice as smart means planning the strategies and tactics you'll use for each opportunity. But what about twice as hard?

The Hard Sell
| |
| I declare right up front that I am not, and never have been a fan of the Hard Sell. You have probably guessed that from all my previous posts.
And if you ask most people about what they think about the profession of selling they will often describe something akin to the ‘Hard Sell'. Of late I have also noticed a rise in ‘hard sell' stories where people are being unnecessarily pressured to buy or sales people being pressured to sell at almost any cost.
The hard times may be pushing some people to do things they wouldn't normally do like the "Hard Sell". |

Why is Taking it Easy so Hard?
| |
| The real reason why you find it hard to take it easy is because (drum roll, please) you THINK it MUST be HARD. Seriously, that is the ONLY reason life feels hard. When you choose to believe that life has to be hard because that’s just the way it is, then you are deliberately (even if maybe unconsciously) creating the experience of difficulty in your life. In order to take it easy in your life, you simply need to come from a place where you believe it’s possible. Now, I know it isn’t always comfortable to change which is the main reason we get caught up in staying in situations that don’t feel good. However, I promise you that deliberately creating a love that you love is more than worth the initial discomfort. |

Protect your data with backup software
| |
| Hard drives are marketed as reliable, but the reality tells a different story. It’s only a matter of time until a hard drive crashes and you lose all your important data if you’re not prepared. And even if your hard drive doesn’t fail due to physical errors, virus attacks, software or user errors, even theft threats intervene increasing exponentially the probability of losing your data. |
