Lesson #2: Know Yourself
In order to succeed, you need to know what you are good at. A talent, according to Lucas is “a combination of something you love a great deal, something you can lose yourself in – something that you can start at 9 in the morning, look up from your work and it’s 10 o’clock at night – and something that you have a natural ability to do very well.”
Lesson #4: Be Innovative
“It’s not a business,” says Lucas. “It’s trying to create something interesting that you’re proud of, and try out creative ideas that may seem really off the wall, may work or may not work.” From his films to his technology to his business strategies, Lucas has made a career out of taking risks and being innovative.

Guerrilla Competitive Advantages
Everybody offers benefits in their marketing, but guerrillas stress those benefits that only they offer. That's where to hang your marketing hat.

Wonderful and Horrible Advertising
Because more marketing funds are invested in advertising than in any other weapon of guerrilla marketing, and because an embarrassingly huge amount of that investment is just plain wasted, marketing guerrillas know home truths about copy, graphics, what makes commercials good or bad, and why so much advertising fails.

Selling With Stories - A Powerful Sales Tool
The key to succesful sales is to really engage with your clients - to move them emotionally, not just rationally. And perhaps the best technique to do this is the use of stories.

Should Web Sites Use Cloaking?
Strangely enough a lot of web site owners don't take the time to have their web pages optimized for the search engines. The effects of optimizing a web site will pay off greatly over time, but some webmasters not wanting to invest the time in proper optimization resort to cloaking. Cloaking is the design of special pages that are written for search engine spiders. They identify a spider based on a set of IP address's and return special optimized pages instead of what a web surfer would normally see. If the search engine catches the cloaked pages they will ban a site from their index. It is just a matter of time before a site that implements cloaked pages will be caught.
What Makes Your Business So Special?
The one question every business, branding, and marketing consultant asks is "what makes you special; what makes you different?" If you want to grow your business and get to the next level, defining what makes you special is a good place to start. Most businesses are copycat companies, selling the same thing, in the same way as most of their competitors, making for a real challenge in providing an adequate answer to the "what makes you so special?" question. But fear not, it is easier than you think.
5 big myths about your time
Some people have told me privately that they would love to be more organised and in greater control of their time but they are worried about the negative side-effects. Side effects? What could possibly be wrong or negative about having more time and better personal and professional organisation?
Special Loans
What are special loans? Well let’s define them as loans that are not the usual type. If that seems a little vague to you, you’re not alone. A special loan would be a loan outside of the typical- go to the bank, sign some papers and make payments or they are going to take your boat- kind of loan. Sometimes we’re all forced to get a little creative. When that happens, special loans are what will pull us through. A special loan in the way of a house mortgage is often the first kind that you will run into. These loans are generally backed by a government agency such as HUD (Housing and Urban Development). These loans are guaranteed by the government to be paid. They do this by insuring the loan. They do not assume the entire loan should the person responsible for the loan default, but instead act as an insurance mechanism that will defer s
Five ways to use a special offer
Special offers are the only thing left when you run out of time and still have a hill to climb to reach your sales target. It seems a really dumb thing to do because the people whom you send the offers to are likely to become conditioned to the special offer rates. Worse, they get to know when the end of your measurement period is and wait for the offers! The article gives the five best ways of using special offers.
Increasing Your Impact and Influence - When You Don't Even Know Them
Having the right kind of impact and influence, or making the right impression are clearly of vital importance in today’s competitive environment and preparation and planning are key. But suppose you don’t even know them? What if you’re going in cold to make that pitch or present your ideas? Forget PowerPoint special effects, the elevator pitch and your killer slogan and think about the person in front of you. Don’t switch on the projector yet, use every second you can to be in receiving mode and learn about them. Have these things in your mind as you think what would have impact and influence on their thinking. The answer to each question guides you in how to build your personal impact and influence.
So Who The Hell Am I?
Many facets of life, business, and even the perception we hold of success, are based on the foundation of our special relationships and our judgment. Special relationships can be used to endorse �I am loved and wanted� or �I am dismissed and/or unimportant�. So, for example, if I am not invited to the party or I don�t get the promotion, or the bank won�t extend my overdraft I can use my special relationships to evaluate my own worth in a negative sense. Rather than getting in touch with our own sense of who we are, we look to our special relationships to define us.

Strategic Planning and Effects-Based Thinking: Part 1
In strategic planning and decision making, effects-based thinking (EBT) is a vital tactic to assess the effects of specific actions, not in a narrowly defined and time-limited way, but through a perspective that is sensitive to broad-ranging and lasting impacts. In our fast-paced personal and work lives, we tend to think more about today's issues rather than tomorrow's - but effects-based thinking is the opposite of short-sightedness.

In Part II, a three-tiered framework of effects-based thinking (EBT) and planning critical to understanding change in organizations, markets and communities was discussed.
