Problem Solving
| |
| Fortunately, problems are an everyday part of our life. Consider this: If there were no problems, most of us would be unemployed. Realistically, the more problems we have and the larger they are, the greater our value to our employer. |

The art of being, doing, and having
| |
| One of my favorite phrases is, "You've got to be before you can do and do before you can have." In short, you have to be a person of character and do the right things, and then you can have the things you really want. To make the "be, do have" theory valid, look at some examples in your own life. |

Little Things Make a Big Difference
| |
| There's an old saying that "by the mile it's a trial, and by the inch it's a cinch." The reason the saying is old is because it's good, it's valid. If it were not, it would be dead and buried. For 24 years of my adult life, by choice I weighed well over 200 pounds. I say "by choice" because I have never "accidentally" eaten anything, so when I choose to eat too much, I have chosen to weigh too much. Every choice has an end result. |

Embracing Ignorance as Advantage—a Case Study

| 1:30am Bratislava, Slovakia, this past September 31
One cappuccino, two cappuccino, three cappuccino, four. Neurons humming but still no dice. It was time to get nervous.

Fixing Problems
| |
| Question: Can you remember a day when you did not have some "problem," irritation, disappointment, defeat or set-back of some kind? It might be having to make an unexpected stop at the service station because your mate drove your car and neglected to refill it. Or maybe your boss gave you incomplete information on an important project and now you have to start all over. |

Culture and Communication
| |
| Selling and servicing across cultures is more common now than it has ever been. And as more and more of us come across international sales opportunities I thought it would be worth while looking at some of the challenges we may come across when trying to communicate effectively cross culturally in sales or other business areas.
In many of the articles I have written I advocate for open, honest, trust based relationships. And I still do, however being a direct, no-nonsense, tell-it-like-it-is person that is what I value most. Therefore, by contrast, I can often find indirect, seemingly non-committal, indecisive communication a real chore. ‘Just get to the point’ I hear myself say. Or ‘are you just saying “yes” to just be nice or do you really want to go ahead?” Aaggh.

Should You Talk About the Economy In Your Marketing?
| |
| Is it a good idea to talk about the economy and get into the fear and negativity, or not? The answer isn't quite so straightforward.

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. |

Choose to Breakthrough
| |
| Most people want one. They pray, wish and hope for one. They want a miracle of some kind to zap them. They think maybe somebody else will create the opening for it to happen. They’re hoping one day they’ll wake up with a “lightening bolt moment” and something will be different. People are looking for a breakthrough. |

Why Are You Choosing That?!
| |
| “I’m so exhausted. I could really use a cup of coffee,” said Tim over the phone.
“So, have one.” I said.
“I gave it up almost a year ago.”
“Why?”
“I don’t know. I guess I looked at it as a bad habit. I actually love coffee.” |

What's Your Money Style?
| |
| We all have a different style when it comes to our relationship with money. I'm not talking about your fears or stories about money. Your fears are a whole other box of worms. When I refer to style, I mean how you would relate to money if you had never been influenced by another persons style or fears. |

ATTRACTING INVESTORS: A Compelling Executive Summary in 10 Items or Less
| |
| Attracting an investor is like attracting a mate—you want to pique the investor’s interest without showing all your cards at the outset. The perfect vehicle for achieving this delicate balance is the Executive Summary. The goal of an Executive Summary is to whet the appetite of the investor by presenting a compelling premise, an irresistible hook. Your short (5 pages or less) document is meant to give a potential investor every reason to say “yes” and little reason to say “no” to a face-to-face meeting.

The Big Shift
| |
| You've got big dreams. Ideas that are going to take your life in a complete one-eighty degree turn, right? Like creating better balance between work and home, creating more organization, or finding the perfect mate. You're raring to go except for one thing - how to get started. Such a life altering goal is going to require some major serious action, right? Or will it? Somewhere along the line the mind seems to directly infer that big is to big, as small is to small and that is just erroneous when it comes to goals. Take as an example the person who wants to de-clutter a home. |

Small Loans with Bad Credit in Australia
| |
| Small loans with bad credit in Australia can be had. Bad credit happens to everyone. The point is that the best way to get rid of bad credit is to pay off your debtors. Even doing that won't "clean-up" your credit. The only way to do that would be to get a small loan or some other form of revolving credit account going. But what is a good option and what's not? Fear not mate, I've got a few pointers for you. |

What's under your sales-bonnet ( Final)
| |
| Graham, cut-in abruptly, "OK, ok, let's let sleeping dogs lie, Johno's gone, and good luck to him, we will also see him at the pub on Friday, he's not going too far. He's a good mate, just tired and over-it and that's fair enough, it hasn't exactly been a party around here for a while. Let's move on to the present." I was impressed with Graham, he was a big man, and I felt his big heart, and from what I could tell he was the leader although the Greek wore the title of Managing Director. |

The Marketing Pyramid: How to Find Your Ideal Client
| |
| If you were trying to find your soul mate through a dating site, a description such as “looking for someone 35-45 in Seattle who drives a red car” isn’t going to find you your Prince or Princess Charming. The same is true with your marketing materials. To find those people who get you excited about your business and what you’re doing, you have to laser in on your “ideal client.” |
