Ooooh! Another Bright Shiny Object!
If you are someone who has a business, you can be, rather you ARE, inundated with mail, email, Facebook and Twitter announcements, etc. about the “best,” the “newest,” and the “be-all-end-all” programs that will answer all your business needs.

5 Top Tips to Stay On Track and Get Great Results
I'm constantly amazed at the amount of people I encounter who seem to invest a big chunk of their time and money attending seminars, joining coaching programs and investing in very expensive products only to do nothing with them. I recently saw a testimonial from a lady who had attended one of these events, saying the information from the program was going to turn her business into a million dollar company.

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.

The ADVANTAGE Of Object Oriented Software
We've probably heard of object-oriented software and the advantages it provides over other methods of software development. However unless we've done some computer programming we're probably none the wiser about its advantages or even what it is. And if we've done some programming we may still wonder whether object-orientation provides any advantages at all or simply makes things more complex.
Software Development The Way GOD Does It
In the beginning God created the universe and filled it with objects. He gave each object a set of attributes and placed it in a particular location in the universe where it occupies some space. Each object has been given the ability to do some stuff and communicate with other objects around it by sending and receiving messages. An object is able to do some stuff by itself (including create other objects) but for other stuff it needs to send messages to other objects asking for help. And some stuff it can only do if it's asked to by other objects.
Do you want results, or a process? Differentiate the tools and the objectives.
Remember the old adage, a person whose only tool is a hammer tends to see all problems as a nail. Yet for most of us, results are more important than a shiny bright smooth process, yes? If you don’t think so, skip this article.
Inertia, It’s Not a River in Egypt

When It Comes To Marketing, Consistency and Discipline Beat Shiny Objects Every Time
When you are starting out in a new venture, all you want to know is what sort of marketing works so that you can focus on it 100%. Because there are so many options, you will be tempted to throw your efforts in 100 different directions and chase down anything that looks promising. As a result, you will find yourself chasing after each new "shiny object", abandoning avenues that will produce for you if you give them time. This is a classic path to failure. Instead of chasing the gurus, learn from what they do - spend the time to master each form of marketing before you chase the next best thing.

Power Block Your Way To Focus
I recently sent out a survey to my clients asking them about their top issues in 2010 and an amazing 73% said that “lack of focus” was a major hurdle facing them. As an entrepreneur and self-diagnosed sufferer of “bright shiny object syndrome,” I completely understand. The inability to stay focused on my goals over the course of year has derailed my plans many a time.

The Death Of The Internet Marketer!
Starting down the path of Internet Marketing can be a scary feeling when first entering. It is very tempting to go chase the next \"Shiny Object\" that you come across while surfing the net. The internet is like the wild wild west of income opportunities. For that reason, this is where the term, \"Information Overload\" was born.
