Should I Stay or Should I Go?
Every day, someone leaves his or her life partner to find or to acquire someone 'better'. And very often, some of these people discover that the relationship they created was as bad or worse than the one they left. If patterns of dysfunctional behavior are following you around, take a look at the common denominator: it's YOU!

WE CAN'T SELL TO ALL PROSPECTS THE SAME WAY Today we have access to innovative tools such as the Internet, cell phones, faxes and voice mail all designed to enhance our communications and support us in selling more effectively. Nevertheless, even with all of these technological tools at our disposal, the alarming number of failed relationships, dissatisfied employees and lost sales all reflect the fact that none of us are as effective at understanding others as we would like to believe.

How Companies Can Heal Their Wounded Personal Relationships
A crisis is gripping the business community that is deeper and more far reaching than most people realize or even imagine. At the heart of the crisis is peoples ineffectiveness at managing their relationships. The root cause of these failed relationships is failed communication. None of us have ever been taught how to appropriately communicate with each other and thereby nurture our relationships with each other. What makes all of this particularly disastrous is that personal relationships are the foundation for accomplishment and satisfaction in life. Many people fail to appreciate the importance of maintaining their relationships.

About.com’s Martin Murray’s post “Non-Profit Organization Suing ERP Supplier” A Sign of the Times?
In a white paper that I had written in 2007 titled “SAP Procurement for Public Sector” I had highlighted how the challenges with failed ERP-centric initiatives extended beyond the public sector to include the private sector. The difference as one senior Colgate-Palmolive executive told me shortly after scrapping a failed program was that “unlike the public sector in which a failed initiative becomes front page news, private sector company ERP failures rarely make a blip on the media’s collective radar screen.” The lack of media awareness notwithstanding, the frequency of failures in the private sector is comparable to the number of setbacks that occur in the public sector.

6 Ways To Win In the Game of Life

Babe Ruth had 714 home runs and 1,330 strikeouts. Abraham Lincoln was said to have failed so many times, in business, in his love life, in politics but finally became one of the greatest President of the United States. Allow failure to be your friend.

I Have No Relationship Today With My Dad
There are many reasons for strained or broken relationships between parent and child. Damaged relationships are always painful to those involved. The good news is that relationships can be mended. The hard part is that you must initiate action that will lead to forgiveness and reconciliation. Here’s how.

So Who The Hell Am I?
Many facets of life, business, and even the perception we hold of success, are based on the foundation of our special relationships and our judgment. Special relationships can be used to endorse �I am loved and wanted� or �I am dismissed and/or unimportant�. So, for example, if I am not invited to the party or I don�t get the promotion, or the bank won�t extend my overdraft I can use my special relationships to evaluate my own worth in a negative sense. Rather than getting in touch with our own sense of who we are, we look to our special relationships to define us.

Hold Me Tight – Book Review
Business is all about relationships and yet many of us are novices when it comes to maintaining and deepening our relationships. Sue Johnson has written a terrific book about how healthy relationships function. Although it was written as a guide to repairing and maintaining healthy primary relationships, it can be used as a guide to many of our other relationships.

Gain Strength by Learning How to Overcome Failure
A few years back, Disney released an animated movie called “Meet the Robinsons” that had such a deep impact and meaning. The point of the story is to celebrate each failure you have because it gives you the opportunity to try again. Most people make the mistake in thinking that, just because they failed at something, they should just move on. Or, if they failed it meant they were never meant to succeed at it.
