Today, we're interested in stories, and not particularly interested in facts. Every story needs facts, of course, but they are secondary. The facts are there just to provide some ballast for the story.

Resist the Interpretation Addiction
Sometimes we adopt a story and unknowingly our emotions get swept up in it. And 99% of the time we don’t really question or inquire into the story we create.

Make Your Story Add Value to Your Clients Bottom Line
The purpose of your story for a workplace audience is to improve the bottom line. Even in those employee appreciation programs where entertainment may seem the focus, there is an undeniable expectation of increased productivity after your story is heard. The question to ask yourself when using your story is: What is the point of the story and how does the story improve a client's bottom line?

Entrepreneurs Are Optimists
I've long argued that there are two types of people out there. I call them "The Victim" and "The Entrepreneur." You can usually tell the difference by the sort of energy a person exudes. While everyone experiences their own personal ups and downs, the long-term trend you sense from an Entrepreneur is one of optimism, and that from a Victim is one of pessimism.

Three Primary Reasons To Become An Entrepreneur
For some time, I've written and spoken about the difference between two basic types of person out there these days: The Victim, and The Entrepreneur.
