Lesson #3: Create the Illusion
Until 1985, what was known about Lauder’s life was limited largely to what she decided to reveal. She had created an image of herself as the Cosmetics Queen whose eternal youth, beauty and class could not risk being marred by the reality of her somewhat plain upbringing. In 1985, that all changed when Lauder learned of the soon-to-be published unauthorized story of her life and she was prompted to write her own biography. But, even with the release of Estee: A Success Story, little was in fact exposed to help break down the myth of the larger than life Lauder.

CASE STUDY: BIG KEV
Another crazy, was an old mentor, employer and friend of mine, Kevin McQuay (AKA) BIG KEV! Big Kev was a naked salesman and one of the best I have ever seen. He was bold, most certainly unique, memorable and very real! Big Kev was a larger than life character and Australia’s most famous celebrity television salesman. I spent many years with Kev and he taught me a hell of a lot about sales and business. It would be remiss of me not to add, Kev has been the most influential person in my business life to date. He believed in me when no one else did, and for that I will always be eternally grateful.

How Do You Achieve Work-Life Balance?
I received an email from a friend earlier this week entitled "Personal Balance in Demanding Times" with the following question: "How can we balance our personal needs with the most pressing needs of our community and the larger world?" Her email continued with some deeper questions including: - How are you doing this balancing act? - Who do you know who seems to balance well and what do they know? - How does your life touch the life of the larger world and what would allow you to feed your personal life while making a difference "out there"? - How can you feel satisfied you've given enough to yourself, your family and your community?
