Lesson #2: Don’t Try to Tame a Wild Duck
“You can make wild ducks tame, but you can never make tame ducks wild again,” said Watson Jr. “One might also add that the duck who is tamed will never go anywhere any more. We are convinced that any business needs its wild ducks. And in IBM we try not to tame them.”

It's About Time: The Path to Productivity
How well do you manage your time? Do you sometimes feel like you spend most of your work day putting out fires instead of being productive? Often it seems we’re so busy putting out those daily fires that we don’t ever get to accomplish anything of real significance—those things that would make us the most successful in the long run. Every day becomes something to “get through” instead of an exciting path to greater fulfillment. We all have the same amount of time; it's what we do with the time we have that makes the difference.

Prayer and purposeful action
I awoke early this morning to the sound of gentle rain falling and found myself immediately praying for more. This prayer came automatically during one of the most tragic weeks in Victoria’s history with the tragedy of the bush fires in many parts of our state. As a Victorian I have found myself upping my prayer quotient for rain for some time now, not just for the bush fires but for the many people whose lives are affected by the drought here and elsewhere. In addition to my prayers, like many families, my family and I have been doing our best to save water and change the size of our carbon foot print. Yet at times like this one can’t help but feel somewhat helpless and useless. All I felt I could do under the circumstances was to pray and give money.
Are You Planning To Fail - Or Just Failing To Plan?

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. The good news is, that you don\'t have to be a Guru, in order to make a living online, you just need patience, fortitude, nand a system that will add value to a potential customer.

Leaders Focus on Reflection and Renewal
Very often we find that managers and their teams are so busy working in the business that they have little time to work on the business. Meetings, deadlines, full email in-boxes, phone calls - comprised mostly of operational activities - suck up huge amounts of time and energy. We've often tried to work with such ineffective managers to set up training workshops and off-site planning retreats. But they are typically too busy fighting fires to spend time on any prevention strategies. As they work ever harder, the fires burn ever bigger. Too often this leads to burned-out managers, demoralized frontline staff, and slipping performance.
