How to Make Your Home a Safe Haven
Our home is our safe haven from the rest of the world. This is more important than ever if you are an adult with ADHD. Home isn’t just a place to store belongings and carry out functional activities such as sleeping, eating and bathing. It is where we are soothed and calmed when we are stressed or upset. It is where we regroup and get centered for the next day.

How to Gain Mastery and Become World-Class at Anything
Chet Holmes was said to be “America’s greatest sales and marketing executive” by Charlie Munger. He said that he had run 40 businesses and never seen anybody consistently achieve the kind of breakthrough results that Chet Holmes had achieved again and again. Chet Holmes shared his formula and it is SO simple that I’m already smiling because I know what kind of “That’s it?” reactions this will get. What he managed to do is pretty impressive. He said that if you can do 4000 activities 12 times, or 12 activities 4000 times, which would you pick. 4000 activities 12 times might be fun, depending on the situation…I wouldn’t want to watch 12 movies 4000 times, for example. But there is a trade-off. Chet Holmes is a ‘turn-around expert’, and he chose the latter option: 12 activities 4000 times.
10 Pointers on Starting a Blog
Blogs can be cathartic, functional or just plain fun. Here are some pointers on starting a blog.
Reorganize your life
I recently read about this study conducted by Nobel Prize recipient Daniel Kahneman. He believed we would all feel a lot better if we spent our time more wisely. He conducted a diary study with 909 women in Austin, Texas. He asked them to record all the activities they did during the day and then rate how happy they were while doing them. He then had them narrow the list to their least favorite activities. Unfortunately those activities accounted for nearly half of the participants' waking hours. Not surprisingly his advice was fairly simple. He said "Reorganize your life to be in situations that you'd rather continue than stop."

HR's Challenge for the Recovery!
As many companies think out strategies in response to the recent recessionary downturn, and its anticipated effect on them, HR's role in their corporation's activities must change. To help companies thrive, HR must work to lower workforce related costs and increase productivity. To improve business performance over the longer term, HR must revamp and realign its functional contributions, and its services, in order to seize the opportunities created by the economic recovery.
What You Do Best
Each time you reconsider your market positioning, be sure to include a few exercises to hone in on what you do best in your business. You want to tease out those activities that you absolutely love to do and those activities you are the very best at in the world.

Off the Cuff --- Sales Execution
Execution involves the day-to-day activities of the salesperson. For most industries, this entails both planned, proactive tasks and opportunistic, reactive events that the salesperson uncovers by doing the right things in the right place at the right time. It's critical that the progress of the tasks in target action plans is carefully monitored to avoid surprises. This is the equivalent of monitoring your daily exercise before the effects start to show up on the scale. The SEP circumvents the most common mistake made in distribution today: trying to manage results. You must manage activities because it's the activities that produce results. Once the results are in, the horse is out of the barn and everything you do from that point on is reactive. If you proactively manage the activities, the expected results will follow.
How to fix sputtering marketing
Is your marketing generating a steady stream of sales leads ? If not, ask yourself this question: Do you have a marketing plan? You may know what your business goals and objectives are. And you probably have a website and are doing some advertising or promotion. But without a game plan, your marketing activities are reduced to a few unconnected activities that are unlikely to produce the results you want. A marketing plan helps you tie all your marketing activities together so you can create a roadmap that will lead you to your objectives. And a simple, one-page marketing plan will take you a lot further than no marketing plan at all.

Priorities and Schedules
Each of us on a daily or weekly basis somehow reduce our activities to a schedule. Some people use formal organizers or planners; others scribble notes on blank sheets of paper; and still others use obscure systems that defy description. But, in our own way, we each come up with a mental or literal "to do" list for the day. As we examine our list of activities each day, we generally prioritize them. That is, we determine which of these activities is the most important and which can wait till later if necessary.

Matrix Organization - Possible in China?
- Published by CONCHIUS in China Daily 9 June, 2009. In general, we have observed that international companies that choose to use a matrix organization in China struggle to get their organizations up to speed for a much longer period than companies that use a functional structure. A matrix organization has no clear hierarchical structure and defined responsibilities as a functional organization has. A matrix organization can take different approaches when dividing responsibilities and one of the most common approaches is project orientation.
