The Ripple Effect: Small Steps Lead to Big Results
| |
| "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit." -Aristotle
Procrastination is the single habit at the root of so many problems that plague all of us at one time or another - challenges with managing our time, relationships, projects, and information. |

Knowledge And The Intellectural Capital Of The Organization
| |
| In the new economy of the millennium, knowledge has emerged as an asset to be valued, developed and managed. The quest for knowledge is not new: in the fourth century BC, Aristotle noted "All men by nature desire knowledge." Now, 25 centuries later, knowledge drives the global economy. No longer is knowledge considered only an individual's personal wisdom; knowledge is a component of the intellectual capital of organizations (Stewart 1997). |

Visionarys Disease and the CEO
| |
| We all know the value of vision. The Greek philosophers spoke about it. Former President George Bush recommended attention to "the vision thing." What happens when an organization's problem isn't a lack of vision but too much? What happens when the CEO's vision changes monthly, weekly, or even daily-driving his organization crazy? Welcome to Visionary's Disease. If you are consulting to someone who suffers from it, you are probably very frustrated. |

3 mistakes that most ads make
| |
| "Is a hand that can't grip still a hand?" asked Aristotle who believed that something is defined by its function or purpose. If you apply this belief to advertising, it will be right to say that an advertisement that doesn't convert is not an ad in its truest sense.
Nonetheless, you'll see a lot of "ads" that don't convert target customers into buyers. The problem may be attributed partly to customers who have become jaded from the profuse amount of ads. The following mistakes that most ads contain, however, are another cause.

7 Things to Know Before You Work From Home
| |
| Before you jump into a work at home program you should consider the following.
There a lot of pitch pages that will urge you to buy and paint a very pretty picture such as, “make a six figure income working only 30min”. Do not fall prey to over hyped scams. This is not to say that all the programs you come across will be scams but there are a lot of them out there.

How the Mind Works: Understanding Your Mental Software
| |
| The complexities of the mind have left thinkers, scholars and philosophers baffled for a millennia. For the past two hundred years the field of psychology has sought to understand why we are the way we are but reviled little as to how the mind works. The latest advances in psychology, cognitive science and neuro science have lead to new models and a whole new science of mind has emerged. We now know more than ever before about how the mind works. And when you know how the mind works, changing it becomes easy. |

Start your Visual Thinking Process with Mind Mapping
| |
| Leonardo daVinci did it, Aristotle did it, should you? Mind mapping is widely understood term but few people utilize it. I am amazed that even in our school systems that it still does not replace linear note taking. Mind Map represents the best of both worlds by resembling the visual aspects of a flow chart and the organizational structure of an outline. |

Life is a Mirror
| |
| Philosophers through the ages have taught us that individuals attract the same energy they put out to the universe. If you think negative thoughts, then negativity will come back to you. If your outlook is positive and upbeat, that is how the world will approach you.
I am not a philosopher myself, but I subscribe to the simple wisdom that energy begets energy. I see applications for the theory especially helpful in the working environment. I have been having some discussions with students recently and would be interested in your comments in this forum.
Some people are constantly feeling besieged with problems coming at them from other people, who they say have bad attitudes. My take is that if what you see coming at you is other people that are sour, it is really a good time to take a long hard look in the mirror.

Changing Attitudes
| |
| This paper will focus on something we often take for granted - our attitude. Yet numerous philosophers and authors down through the ages have proven that our attitude, more than any other single factor (money, beauty, health, possessions, relationships), determines the quality of our life. The miracle is that we are actually able to manage our attitude rather easily. |

How to Use Affirmations
| |
| Affirmations are probably the easiest and most effective method – compared to the effort involved – known to influence the conscious mind. Many of the worlds most intelligent experts and philosophers have used, and are using this technique, which has been handed down over thousands of years, in various guises such as mantras and prayers. |
