Strategic-ness vs. Happiness
As you learn more about business, you might find your focus becoming more strategic. How do I get more sales? Maximize my time? Expand my network? Meet the goals I set?

When something feels out of your control, it usually is.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Biznik, blogs, comments, status updates, “friend”ing, fan pages...aaah! Where does it end? Do you find yourself avoiding social media, or find it overwhelming? You’re so not alone. I've talked to many people, of all ages, highly technical and not, and it's a common issue. What if you are … [Read more...]
Practical Methods of Accessing Your Unconscious
Our unconscious is probably involved when: Everything looks fine on the surface but something is still bothering you. You just can't make a decision. You freeze and stop moving forward for no apparent reason. You've tried and tried to make something happen and it just doesn't. Things aren't so bad, but you feel … [Read more...]
