Costly Distractions
During the entertainment on our cruise the light handler was flipping the spotlights around so every so often they would glare into our eyes. This distracted us from fully enjoying the singer onstage who belted his heart out. I doubt that he realised how the light handler was spoiling his act.

Is Your Boss an Asshole?
Question: How many bosses does it take to screw in a light bulb? Answer: One. He holds up the light bulb and expects the universe to revolve around him.

LaserSharp Networking
Did you know that the energy put out by a normal light bulb is equal to the energy put out by a laser beam? A laser has a very tight beam and is very strong and concentrated. A light bulb, on the other hand, releases light in many directions, so the light is comparably weak and diffuse. The difference between the two allows the laser, with focused energy, to have the power to do very fine and delicate surgery, artistic etching and play the broad, full sounds of an orchestral overture. Does that sound like the kind of precision you want from your networking activities? I've found that there are three ways to bring your networking efforts into laser-sharp focus to make it an even more powerful way to build your business:

Is This The Best Work-Life Balance Book Ever Written?
Last week while corresponding with one of my fellow bloggers, Jacob Share, he mentioned the book ‘The 4-Hour Work Week’ by Tim Ferriss was now available in the UK. ‘Thanks’ I replied, knowing I was travelling that day and I would be able to grab a copy.
Customer Service in Japan

Brand equity vs value
In light of recent major financial brands going 'belly up' in more ways than one, brand value is taking on a whole new light!

Managing time while commuting
According to some interesting statistics that I was reading recently, the average worker spends at least an hour a day travelling to and from work, with some people spending more than 8 hours a week commuting. That’s an entire work day every week! Believe it or not, commuting on public transport or travelling to and from work can actually be one of the most productive times of your day.
2011...New Consumers, New Markets, New Economy Take Hold
Finally it appears as though we're looking out of the tunnel. We can see light -- a lot of optimistic light -- rather than extended gloom. The economy won't be completely behind us but things are looking like they are going to slowly improve. There are still potholes on the road to recovery and prosperity. Fortunately they aren't in the market areas we focus on. Where do we see things improving and how quickly? Take a look for yourself.

Mice and Men
Recently, there was a university study done using white mice as the subjects for a psychological experiment. The mice were put into a cage with a red light and a green light on opposite sides of the space. The experiment was designed in such a way that when a bell rang, a mouse could rush to the red light or the green light to receive a treat. The treat was only presented for a few seconds, so that if the mouse guessed wrong and went to the green light when the treat was being presented at the red light, the mouse didn't have enough time to rush across the cage and get the treat.
