Runaway Sales Calls Dont let customers take control of your meetings
Have you ever been on a sales call where the client was in total control? Of course you were. We all were. And it's a real bear trying to change things when it happens. At some point, it becomes a runaway sales call and the client has manipulated and controlled everything. When this occurs, you lose all negotiating power, your ability to identify their problems, the chance to close, and anything else that will help you win their business.

Entrepreneurs, VCs, and Peeing on a Burning Bush
Many surreal things have happened to me as I hang with entrepreneurs (including the time a runaway golf cart ran me over, but I digress). A recent incident, however, just joined the pantheon.

China's Boomtowns
The current National Geographic has a fascinating feature on capitalism in China's boomtowns, cities like Lishui that are growing so fast that city planners have razed 108 hilltops to accomodate the runaway growth.

Here is a recipe for success
We all want the magic formula or recipe for instant success. Unless your definition of success is to have millions of dollars and you win the lottery, success is never instant but the result of deliberate action toward a pre-determined objective. Every chef has his own recipe; this is mine but keep in mind that success is in the journey, not the destination. Recipe for success: Motivation + Belief + Effort = Success

What Success Means to People
Many people get frustrated because they feel they are not achieving success. There are many reasons for this, but one of the most common reasons is that people measure success by what others have. Instead, measuring success is about looking at your own skills and opportunities. It is about what success means to you in your own mind rather than someone else’s. Discover a different definition of success.

Business Success - How to Create the Twilight Series Success in Your Business
So what can you learn from the runaway success of the Twilight series that can also make your business successful? Read on and discover 2 things you can integrate into your business.

Why Gold Really Is Money
It is an unfortunate historical anomaly where people think the paper in their wallets is money, suggests Mike Farrell with aspenIbiz. Read this short post to understand that money is something that holds value over time and is not subject to devaluation and loss of purchasing power as a result of overspending and a runaway supply of the currency that the government and central banking systems mandates be used as a substitute for money. Also learn about strategies to reduce the risk of further loss of purchasing power.

Personal Responsibility: Protect Your Wealth
There's a global conspiracy against wealth today. It isn't obvious - no conspiracy is - but the signs are there if you know what to look for. A "jobless recovery"... a collapsing dollar... runaway government spending... bloated "zombie" entitlement programs that've long eclipsed the policies they were originally intended to implement and now exist with the sole purpose of furthering their own existence... these are all indicators of the worldwide march away from economic freedom and toward collectivist state control. If and when the conversion to global socialism is completed (and the current liberal U.S. government is sprinting as fast as they can toward that day), wealth will be sin, and it will be too late to protect what you've worked for....

The spirit of the 21st century is partly about laying to rest the ghosts of the 20th century
My Grandparents did not foresee spaceships, computers, cell phones or the Internet. My Grandparents would not have foreseen the scale of population growth either. When my Grandfathers were entering their teenage years in 1911 there was under 2 billion people on earth. Now just 100 years later there is around 7 billion! 2 billion was sustainable. 7 billion is not, let alone the 10 billion predicted for 2050. Today around a third of the world’s people live in poverty. We made great and arguably unprecedented progress in the 20th century. So far we have failed to manage the associated risks and in many ways we are like a runaway train running out of track very quickly. We must change our ways before it is too late.

Renewing Limited Government: Limit Unions
We can, and must, limit the runaway growth of corrupt labor unions in America. Workers should have the choice to organize, but not be forced to be bled by high dues and high taxes which go to ruin the very companies that employ them. Keep the unions... but limit them to the good and noble function for which they're intended....
