Control Your Inputs
| |
| Your mind is your ultimate personal computer.

Success Isn’t a Mystery in any Economy
| |
| My first piece of advice on success today for anyone willing to listen is simply to turn off the news. Don’t listen to CNN. Turn off the Fox News network, NBC, CNBC and all the other networks that are sensationalizing everything that is happening in our economy on a minute to minute basis. I have made a conscious decision not to listen because a high percentage of what you see on television today is pure garbage designed simply to improve ratings. I refuse to listen to a constant diet of negativity. In fact, I refuse to even associate with negative people. I suggest that each and every one of us has an obligation to protect our attitude. |

Staying Current and Adjusting in the Retail Business
| |
| In the not too long ago past there were three main sources of live news; TV, newspaper and the radio. This older format allowed people to either look at or not look at what was being presented by the media.
Nowadays, there are countless sources of live news, thanks to the Internet. So, with so many sources of news, I select only the subject matter I am interested in and sources that I find to be accurate; hence "selectively".
It is obvious that we are in an economic crisis, which is old news. But it wasn't old news back in September or October of 2008. I knew that the economy was being steered into a storm, like nothing I had ever seen before. |

Live at 5 – Handling The TV Interview
| |
| Business or personal, everyone seems to love a great scandal, solid news (as long as it's not their own).
As flat as organizations are today any executive, manager can be reached for an interview. The most stressful is when you're sitting/standing with a TV camera facing you and the news person wants information, answers. Few professional newspeople (print, radio, TV, web, blog) are out to dig up dirt just to get the information...honest information. We're fortunate. We've had several years of being the interviewer (early in our career) and four confrontational interview courses. Done right the entire news interview experience can be good for the organization and you. The problem is you always have your best responses right after the interview. There's no retake in an interview...any interview.
