Just thinking about it can drive anyone off the edge.

"Life is Difficult, and when we come to accept that life is difficult, it no longer seems so!" (Scott Peck) It is a bit of a paradox but true happiness, as in intrinsic, in fact is a resulting symptom of a life well spent in solving problems and overcoming hardships.

Enhancing Your Self-Image
Success is an inside job. Even if your body and mind are ready, willing, and able to learn and do whatever is necessary to get the job done, a negative self-image may stop you. Although we create many outward images of ourselves-so we can interact with or impress others and sell our ideas or services-we only have one self-image. The way we view ourselves determines the level of success we attain in anything. To achieve more success, some parts of our sense of self will have to change.

"The Forming – Storming – Norming – Performing model of group development was first proposed by Bruce Tuckman in 1965, who maintained that these phases are all necessary and inevitable in order for the team to grow, to face up to challenges, to tackle problems, to find solutions, to plan work, and to deliver results. This model has become the basis for subsequent models of group development and team dynamics and a management theory frequently used to describe the behavior of existing teams". ..... Wikipedia

Sales and Up-Selling is No Joke
Everyday in addition to the basic spam of email, friends send me jokes. Some are funny, some are not. Those that are truly funny have a nugget of wisdom or enlightenment within. Here's a story that I like and it not only makes sense, but delivers a common sense sales message that we can all learn from. And, that's no laughing matter.

Putting the Success Books On The Couch: Notes from Dr. Kevin Fleming

Lesson #4: Give Your Business a Little Brand Aid
“Originally, it was Jerry’s Guide to the World Wide Web, but we settled on Yahoo!,” says Yang. “It is a pretty recognizable brand name.” Despite Filo’s admission that he was “not crazy about the name at first,” he now concedes that they made the right choice. “It grew on me,” says Filo, who is now grateful they selected a name that is “so memorable and that conveys the sense of fun involved in all this, the sense of adventure. This is what really distinguishes our site.”

You Should Also Do It.
I could go on all day, but the fact is we see Joint Ventures all the time with large business. It’s been going on for centuries. Why? Because it makes a lot of sense. It makes EVEN MORE sense when small businesses do it, especially when they do it with no money and no risk!
A Spectacular Sales Example of Something REALLY Stupid
Don't think your customers get excited about the unexcitable. Promotions are important to selling. Absolutely. But they have to be promotions that actually MEAN something to your customer.

The State of the Union, Common Sense and Success
Successful people embrace and use their common sense. They apply four key common success principles: 1) clarity of purpose and direction; 2) a sincere commitment to taking personal responsibility for your life and career; 3) unshakeable self confidence; and 4) competence in several key skills. In the State of the Union address, President Obama called common sense a novel concept. It may be. However, if you are serious about creating the successful life and career you want and deserve, you will embrace your common sense. You'll apply your inner knowing of what to do to when it comes to succeeding in this life and in your career.
Common Sense and Success
We are all born with five senses: sight, sound, touch, taste and smell. These senses help us navigate our way through the world. They bring us delight in small things. They also warn us when danger threatens. However, I believe that we all have a sixth, and underused sense, our common sense. Your common sense helps you make the right decision in ambiguous situations -- but only if you use it. When I tell people that I'm the Common Sense Guy, people often come back with Will Rogers' saying, "Common sense isn't all that common." I disagree. I think that we all have innate common sense. It's a natural gift, just like our five other senses. We don't always use it though. If you are willing to let your common sense guide you today, you can use it as a guide tomorrow, the next day, next week and next month.
The Joys of being Responsible or Discipline Means Freedom (and some warm fuzzies)
The joys of being responsible. Discipline means freedom. They do sound rather contradictory, don't they? But if you gently focus on the rewards of discipline, rather than any sense of stingy self denial, all will make sense. Working with a very broad definition of "rewards" will also help.
A new approach to staffing
Ever been in the situation where your company is temporarily overstaffed and you're faced with making people redundant or acception you have to pay for idle time and take a hit on your bottom line?
