When the Conventional Route Won’t Work
| |
| Sometimes your dream isn't designed for you to personally go about it the way that most people do. It doesn't mean that the goal can't be reached. There is always a solution, but you'll have to tune out all the people who will say it can't be done that way. |

Market Research: Living in the Real World of Business Depends on Comments from the Real World
| |
| In the feature film Sliding Doors, I found myself fascinated by a conversation between two friends. Gerry had just been discovered by his girl friend as he was having an affair in their bedroom. Gerry's friend laughs at him and reminds Gerry that he had told him weeks ago that the affair would end without Gerry having to do anything. Gerry's friend asks him, "Do you want my opinion?" Gerry replies, "Am I going to like it?" With a chuckle, his friend responds with, "No. It's based on reality."

To know yourself, know your shadow
| |
| It is a common experience. You speak to a friend about some strong negative feelings you have about someone else. Your friend, being a true friend, says, "but aren't you a bit like that too?" You of course don't like to hear this, but it gets you thinking. Maybe you can be a bit like it too. That's a useful admission since it then helps you to manage that characteristic in yourself. This is the sort of self-awareness that is crucial to our growth, to get that the people in our lives are in some way a mirror of ourselves. The concept of the shadow, from Carl Jung, is one of the great insights from 20th century psychology that is invaluable to those of us who seek to build effective relationships with others. |

After you finish talking about the weather and last night's sports scores, the inevitable question comes up: "So, what do you do?"
You've got 60 seconds. What do you say?

Key Variables for Your 2010 Success Formula
| |
| Heading into the New Year, I’m constantly thinking whether a success formula exists, and if so, are there any key variables that form that equation. My friend gave a wonderful gift for Christmas, which is a book called Three Feet from Gold by Sharon Lechter and Greg Reid. A century ago, Napoleon Hill began his research for his bestseller Think and Grow Rich, which contained principles of self-motivation, leadership, service and achievement. He derived these principles through countless interviews with successful people during his day. Three Feet from Gold is a story about a young entrepreneur who faced adversity when his life seemed to fall apart. However, he rose to the occasion by following the principles taught by Napoleon Hill and ended up becoming very successful. |

Our Fate is in Our Own Hands
| |
| A few years ago a friend had Ned, a small independent contractor, do extensive renovations to his home. Being a very fussy craftsman and cabinet maker, Ned did an especially superb job on the extensive woodwork involved in the renovation. About a year after completing the renovations, Ned bumped into my friend at the local hardware store. "The recession finally caught up to me," Ned told my friend. "I've had to lay off my crew and try to wait out this slow period."

Getting Sach'd

| Recently Greg Smith submitted his resignation from Goldman Sachs in a rather public way, with an op-ed in the New York Times. His diatribe against the abuses of a culture he described as "not right" led to an outpouring of emotion that will reverberate around the financial world and social media for years. |
