Profligate
When I walked into my hotel room the other night, I was amazed to discover that no less than 18 lights were on (all traditional bulbs) and that the heat was set on three different thermostats to a toasty 75 degrees in honor of winter.

Smart Women, Subways and Asking
This article is about asking for help from people or “experts” that have the knowledge and information that could help women in their lives both personally and professionally. It’s natural to get “lost” at different times in our life. The key is to ask the right people for help and direction to get you back on track and moving in the right direction of your goals.

Small Business Phone Systems Options
Small business phone systems options used to be pretty cut and dry. In the ‘old days' there was simply a rotary phone or a touch pad phone that could place calls on hold in one location on site and route those calls to another location on site. Those days, though not so long ago, are long gone and now small business phone system options are almost unlimited.

Sales Calls are Like the 1978 AL Playoff Game
So here we have two stars of the game, obsessing over how their upcoming interaction would go, what might happen and how they would respond. It's not only a great example of visualization and preparation, it is practice at its best. Do you do that? Do you visualize, role-play, rehearse, and prepare for your calls? Or, are you so good that you don't have to? What would happen if you began to obsessively prepare like that - especially now - especially in these times?

Yellow Pages - To Advertise or Not To Advertise
With so many other ways to access information today, it should be no surprise that the effectiveness of directory books such as the Yellow Pages is on the decline. However they still are a main source of information for visitors in a hotel room, or users of public telephone booths. Some older age demographics also prefer them to other alternatives. It is expected that we will continue to see these familiar yellow books around for approximately 10 more years. So whether they are right for you really comes down to knowing the search habits of your ideal clients.

Consistency and Positive Thinking
I also find it quite amusing that in our social life regarding the opposite sex we manage to keep an amazingly positive outlook. If that was not the case very few people would be married or have girlfriends. Look how much rejection we take before we find the right mate. If it will work in our social life it will work in our business life.

How to Enroll clients into $125K Coaching Program
Do people really pay $125K for a coaching program? The answer is YES! Most entrepreneurs market their higher cost products the most, hoping their clients and customers will start at the top and then make the smaller purchases later. Have you considered turning this approach up side down?

No Trespassing
It’s sometimes funny how everyday experiences can spark off thoughts about deeper things. I recently had an experience with neighbours about an unclear boundary between our adjoining properties that was causing confusion with access, maintenance responsibilities etc. There was no clear dividing line!

Eyes Wide Open
I'm sitting in my hotel room in Palo Alto after 20 hours of travel from Hampshire, England.

Keeping Your Work and Life in Balance
Do you remember when hotel rooms didn't have coffee makers? I recall vividly the first time I walked into a hotel room and discovered a coffee maker. I didn't even drink coffee back then, but I made it, simply because having the coffee pot was so cool. Then people got used to it. Customers got spoiled. They wanted more. The bad news is that it doesn't stop. People will always get used to things the way they are, become more demanding, and wanting more. Such it is with technology and speed. Everyone asks me when things will "return to normal" and "slow down." It won't. The speed at which you're operating is now what's expected. Welcome to the new normal!
