Information Highway Roadkill!
Don't Become Part of the Information Highway Road Kill. Road kill refers to the animals that have been struck by a motor vehicle and killed. You can rarely go on the highway without seeing roadkill. The animals are in the wrong place at the wrong time and fast moving motor vehicles can't always avoid hitting these unfortunate animals. The Internet is often been referred to as the information highway and it has its own version of roadkill. There are no motor vehicles on the information highway but there definitely is a lot of roadkill! The information highway is strewn with defeated and broken entrepreneurs.

Workplace Conflict Resolution: A Practical Guide
When it comes to conflict, it’s pretty easy to take a bad situation and make it even worse. We say the wrong thing, in the wrong way, at the wrong time. Our emotions get the best of us and pretty soon things have spiraled out of control. With a little thought and planning, however, you can effectively work out problems with coworkers, clients, family, and friends. The next time you’re engaged in a quarrel or dispute, try the following approach:

Are you in alignment with your business?
For the past three years I have struggled. I mean really struggled. I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong. I had built a very profitable business before. One that grew quickly and bloomed into a beautiful success. So what was wrong this time?

When Two Rights Make A Wrong
Ethics have always been a major concern in business, and with the current Washington (D.C.), banking and Wall Street failures, ethics have taken a prominent place on the national stage. Associations are beginning to help their members development ethics training and codes of conduct. Awards for good ethical businesses are being awarded. It is time to understand exactly what ethics are, and how they affect your business. Ethics is not about right vs. wrong - it is about right vs. right, or even worse, wrong va. wrong. This article explores the meaning of ethics and how they apply in a business environment.

It's Not MY Fault...REALLY!!!
Let's face it, it can be daunting to realize you are the one who didn't do it right. To make matters worse, it can be even harder to see it. We can think we did things right and still be wrong. We can be told and refuse to believe. In B.C. people were told the earth was round but rejected it for thousands of years. Instead they thought it was flat, stationary and the center of the universe. They were wrong...for hundreds of years. And just like the person who believes his results are not his doing, he is wrong as well. Somewhere along the way, many people became fearful of failing. As a result, some don't try while others refute their participation in causing an outcome. They detach themselves from poor results and believe they weren't responsible while thinking there is no harm being caused...WRONG AGAIN!

Efficiency versus Effectiveness
Everyday we are confronted with the message, to be more efficient. We could have the best measurement systems in place to measure the efficiency of the operations, but be producing the wrong thing or focusing on the wrong area - as a result, the business could fail, though it was highly efficient. What is going to build the future of our business does not come through efficiency; it comes through effectiveness.

Identify Your Eating Triggers
We sabotage our healthy eating plans and diet goals when we snack and nibble at all times and on the wrong foods. Identifying what triggers us to want to eat at the wrong time helps us avoid falling into this trap.

What to Do When Things Go Wrong During Your Speech
Murphy’s Law states-whatever can go wrong, does. This is true even when you speak. The good news is, knowing what might go wrong ahead of time will help you to know how to handle it.

Proving customers wrong only makes them right
You better believe it! Does it really matter if you're right? Yes it does, but not at the expense of making your customer wrong. If I had to choose between being right and losing a valued customer and being wrong and helping my customer see the situation as their opportunity - I would be wrong every time.

Gain Strength by Learning How to Overcome Failure
A few years back, Disney released an animated movie called “Meet the Robinsons” that had such a deep impact and meaning. The point of the story is to celebrate each failure you have because it gives you the opportunity to try again. Most people make the mistake in thinking that, just because they failed at something, they should just move on. Or, if they failed it meant they were never meant to succeed at it. Wrong, wrong, wrong!
