Dont Overload Unload
Are you stuck? Stuck trying to rework a project or looking for the “perfect” solution? Stuck searching for the latest brainstorm, new business idea, or product stream? Are you stuck waiting for that “light bulb moment” that will pull all of the pieces together in their rightful place? Well, so are a lot of other people. As a whole, we spend a great deal of time being stuck, waiting to find “perfect,” and making ourselves stressed and miserable in the process. Why? Because we think that it’s our job to find the solution. When it’s not our place, at all, to find the answers, it’s simply our job to allow the answers to come to us. Yes, it really is that easy, we just tend to complicate the process because we’re conditioned to presume that the search must be difficult.

Looking for Sky In All The Wrong Places
Ever sit with a single puzzle piece of clouds and wonder how you will ever put the entire sky together? Life as an entrepreneur is often just like that— lots of the little pieces; like creating products, taking care of clients, wrestling computers, etc.— and a whole lot of sky; the big open space that is creating a successful and enjoyable business. I had so many pieces of ‘puzzle sky’, I was drowning in an ocean of sky blue. After over a decade of struggling with my own company to fit all the ‘pieces’ together, I have finally put together the big business puzzle— and it’s not what I thought it would look like.
Sales Big Picture - Top Salespeople Sell Attractively on Purpose
One of the most frequent complaints of salespeople is the ebb and flow of sales. Getting sales is the goal of a salesperson. Now step back. What is one of the first pieces in selling? Maybe prospecting? Take another step back. Maybe marketing? There are at least three strategic pieces with their tactics to increase both your understanding and successful actions in the buying and selling process.
Business Plan and Implementation Principle 1
Let’s say you are my employee, and I ask you to build a puzzle of 1,000 pieces. The challenges are that there are no square edges, you cannot see the picture of what the puzzle will look like in the end, and most of the picture is pure black or white. Oh, and by the way, I am going to give you extra pieces. How motivated are you to build this puzzle for me? Welcome to the typical business. This is how the majority of employees feel in most organizations and why most employees only do the minimum expected to keep their job.
Publish a Book and Leave Your Competition Behind
By writing a book, you fit all the pieces of your expertise neatly into place. Your insights and lessons learned combine to fill your book’s pages resulting in an alluring record of your current value proposition. While much of this can also be said about writing articles, a book ups the ante, strutting your stuff thoroughly, glamorously and uniquely.
The BIG Pieces Go in First
As you look at your calendar and set your goals for 2009, consider these twin principles of Balance and Big Pieces. Use this simple tool to increase your success (and your joy!) in the year ahead. Put the BIG pieces in first, and give them the necessary time, energy and focus to create the balanced, satisfying life you deserve.
Simple Ways to Improve Your Creative Writing
Creative writing can be a rewarding pastime. Many people turn to the pen to unwind after a stressful day. Some creative pieces can even be sold, turning a pastime into a source of additional income. However, many pieces that get written never see the publisher's desk. Why? Because although creative writing is a hobby for many people, they need to produce professional-level work if they want to get published.

The SEO experts shoes
You've heard the tale of the cobbler's children who have the most worn shoes at school? Shoes full of holes, patched up, leaking, broken to pieces. Smart kids, clean tidy haircuts kids, well mannered, good natured, hard working, fun to be around - it's just the shoes that look out of place and tatty.
Why You Might Not be Ready for Publicity
Often clients come to me because they truly want to get the recognition they deserve in the form of publicity both online and in the media. They’re looking for a starting point to get the word out so they have a general understanding of press releases and strategies. This is an important step in building your brand awareness and increasing credibility. At the same time there are often key foundational pieces missing. Pieces that need to be in place before you really start creating publicity buzz. And, I’m always upfront about that.

The Three-Part Harmony in Your Logo
Just as a harmonized song is made up of a set of three notes, every small business's logo should be made up of three pieces of art: the icon, the font, and the color palette. These three pieces all work together, singing the same basic song, to tell your business's story. In your logo, each of them gives you an opportunity to build in meaning and symbolism.
