Lesson #2: Be Relentless
“I am a hedonist at heart,” says Cowell. “I love the uncertainty and the challenge. I’m also exceptionally competitive and ambitious. It is relentless, relentless, relentless. I can’t help it. Sometimes I’m glad, sometimes I wish I wasn’t like that all the time. I can never switch off.”

Reorganizing for profit
Here's what most retailers do: They organize by brand/designer or label Within that, they organize by type of item and within that, by style and finally, by size

Can You Say “This Is It” for Yourself?
I am profoundly inspired... in a life-changing kinda way. I saw the new Michael Jackson movie, This Is It, yesterday. It blew my white rhinestone socks off! (Truth be told, I had tear dewbies at several points in the movie - it is that powerful!) As an entrepreneur, and a soul-driven person, it spoke to the depths of me.

"Making an Ass out of U and Me"
Here is a salutary lesson in why good communications start with checking things out with others and not making assumptions. For when you do, you shouldn't be surprised if you end up looking like an ass.

The Barter System -- Overlooked and Underrated

No Socks Day: An Excuse to Prospect?
I’m always looking for a new reason to connect with a prospect that hasn’t yet responded to my emails. Clearly triggering events are the number one message to center on, but what if they haven’t responded? After 3 or 4 emails I find myself trying to establish my personality so the contact will begin to feel as if he knows me and want to reply. However, that’s hard if all I ever talk about are issues they might be facing and how I can help. It starts to sound repetitious and boring. If I don’t mix it up a bit, my email will hit the contact’s delete barrier before it’s ever opened!

The EXCELLENCE 25: Master the Basics
Tripped over this list-and, frankly, liked it. (After a few edits.) Here it is-FYI.

S.O.S: The Single Most Powerful Shortcut to Make Your List Love You (And Buy From You)
We opened an email swipe file account recently and I've been going in daily to observe the various emails. It's interesting and eye-opening, almost like a "survival of the fittest" experiment with the best emails rising to the top and the ones not cutting the mark sinking to the bottom (simply because I subscribed to 140 marketing mailing lists). I've tried to reverse-engineer how and why these emails are so amazingly effective at capturing my attention, and even in some cases, my heart. I call this single most powerful concept 'SOS': Setting Off Sparks.

Business Travel: When You Are the Homefront
Business Travel is stressful for the traveler. How about the folks at home? What can you do?

Manage Your Business from the Rockies, not the Prairies
Management is about getting the job done, day in, day out. And it's so easy to get wrapped up in the thick of things. In this article, Martin Haworth, a 27 year sharp-end management veteran and now a Management and Business Coach, explains how getting above it all can reap real benefits...

The Key to Keeping Your New Year's Resolutions
Dear Jane, I want to make some New Year’s resolutions but I don’t want to set myself up for failure, which I’ve done in the past. How can I make sure that I succeed this time? Most of us use New Year’s resolutions as a way to try to boost our self-esteem. We think that if we lose weight, exercise, or pay off our credit card debt, we’ll feel better about ourselves. This seems logical but it’s actually backwards thinking. Why?

Selecting an Online Home Biz
When selecting a online home biz you have to use common sense, research, and your conscience. The Internet is lambasted with so many under the table schemes, at times, it seems impossible to find the correct Home Based Biz for yourself. How long has the search...

Human Resources Outsourcing
As small business owners, we have all come under the dual crunch of time and money pressures. Often times, when we’re trying to run an entire company, we can barely find the time to look after ourselves. How many of us out there have gone to work in the morning with different coloured socks? Or maybe even forgotten to bring our Blackberry? As such, how on earth are we supposed to find the time to manage all of the other people who work for us? Well, that is where human resources outsourcing comes into play.

The Holidays are a Great Metaphor for Sales Success
Which do you anticipate more? The gifts that you will receive? What will it be? Could it be what you were hoping for? Will it be smelly socks? Will you have to return it? Will you love it? Will you hate it? Or... The gifts that you present? Will they be surprised? Will they be delighted? Will they be speechless? Will they know how much thought you put into it? Will they be appreciative?

Increasing Your Success Isn't As Hard As You Think It Is
As a career coach and researcher of working women’s work-life issues, I’ve embarked on a national research study on Women Succeeding Abundantly, in order to learn first-hand the essential ingredients in thinking, beliefs, choices, and behaviors that create and maintain “knock your socks off success” in women. I want to learn from women who can raise their hands today and say, “Yes! I feel tremendously successful on my terms, and am able to live life joyfully and with great gusto."

Boots, High Heels, Tennies, or Sandals? Come Watch the People Zoo
When was the last time you went to the zoo? The shopping mall can be JUST as adventurous! As interesting as all the animals are, my daughter, when three, told me while we were sitting on a shopping mall bench "This is as fun as the animal zoo, Mama". People have been watching people since the beginning of time. Why would someone pierce their tongue and eyebrow and wear hiking boots in the middle of shopping? Why wear striped shorts with a plaid shirt with sandals and socks? Why can you hear that one person laughing way above the noise of the entire mall and find them in high heels and "lookin' good babe"? And then there's those who have their cozy sweat pants on and "tennies". Who are these people and what makes them tick? With all the 22 companies out there with personality profiles, I have found after 30 years of sales experience
