Lesson #4: Everything Happens in its Own Time
It did not matter where Kellogg went in his life or what he did, his brother, John Harvey, was eight years older than him and he never let him forget it. As young boys, J.H. would regularly beat on his younger brother, and use him as a foot warmer during many a cold winter night. While J.H. was the loud and flamboyant child, Kellogg was shy, and fell into the shadow of his older brother. He was encouraged to join his father’s broom business, while his brother went off to a prestigious medical school.

Are Sales People Born or Made?
When I started this business, five and a half years ago, I think I would have given up very quickly if I thought sales people were born. I was terrible at sales – it was very definitely a skill I had to learn. I’m sure like anything else, there are some people who don’t need to be taught anything about sales – they just naturally know what to do and how to do it. But, not me. It was something I had to learn how to do.

HalfFULL
When a whole lot of things are not going your way, it can be quite difficult to find a bit of optimism, seemingly impossible, in fact. But hold on, do you remember the old "is the glass half-empty, or half-full" adage? Well, it serves a dual purpose. If you find yourself thinking that "the glass really is half-empty," it serves as a wake up call to the need for an attitude adjustment. On the other hand, if you think "the glass is half-full"--then you've just touched on another of the natural laws, the Law of Polarity. The fact that everything has an equal and exact opposite.
It's time for Marketing to work from a system!
I will tell you an idea that has “Stuck" for many years! Only half of your marketing really works, you just don't know which half? Would you allow manufacturing or service to be only 50% efficient?

You can lead a horse to water…. But a pencil needs to be led!
So say the immortal words of Stan Laurel (and that’s another fine mess you have gotten me into Stanley!). But what might you ask does this have to do with management and mentoring? Well in my three and half years in mentoring practice and 35 years in business, one thing I have learnt, and rather painfully too is that you can lead Directors, management, staff or businesses as a whole to the water but you certainly cannot make them drink.

Analytics – The Key to Profitable Marketing
There is an old advertising saying attributed to John Wanamaker that goes “Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted, the trouble is I don’t know which half”. Today you may still think that half of your advertising may be wasted, but shame on you if you don’t know which half.
Is Your Glass Half Full or Half Empty?
We often hear people talking about whether someone's glass is half full or half empty, which is really a metaphor for how someone views their life or the world around them. If someone is negative or pessimistic, people might regard them as seeing their glass half empty. When people view their glass as half empty, they are looking at what they don't have instead of what they do. If someone is positive and optimistic, people would say they see their glass as being half full. Half of their glass may be empty, but they choose to look at it as half full. They are seeing what they have instead of what they don't. Which type of person are you? Do you see your glass as half full or half empty?

How to structure your business to protect your intellectual property
It was only after Dean signed one half of the shares over to his General Manager that he realised what he had done. The intention when he sold those shares was to give away half of his Auckland business. However, what Dean had inadvertently done was give away half of his dreams and aspirations for the brand which he had spent five years building up from scratch. A simple step taken before the share sale could have avoided this problem, but Dean was now looking at buying back the shares from someone who didn’t want to sell.
