Got Milk? Get Curiosity.
So yesterday we talked about the benefits of conventional conversation, and how sometimes, saying things like “This too, shall pass”… and “”Every dog has his day”… and “You know, it really is always darkest before the dawn, right?” isn’t necessarily bad — in fact, saying …

Diversify Your Bonds, Homie.
Well I just got back from New York City last night — had a great time with my family, saw LOADS of sights and ate like… a KING! Anyway, here’s something you’ve probably seen a thousand times, yet never even given it a second thought: …

How to handle all the idiots you’re going to meet along the way.
I’ve been having an absolute BLAST up here in New York, visiting some friends and mostly spending a ton of quality time with my family, which is as refreshing as a tall cold glass of ice-water after an intense workout. You know, a lot of …

Again… it’s the market that makes this thing appealing.
If I’ve said it once… I’ve said it a thousand times — targeting your services to individual slices of your marketplace, is far more effective than targeting everyone and just “hoping” for the best. Here, listen to this: A Dutch escort agency has just started …

The Big Scramble And Bill Gates
Today I’m smack dab in the middle of what I call, “The Big Scramble.” The Big Scramble is when you have like 12 things to do, and you’re gonna do them OR ELSE, and you only have time to complete 4 of them, yet somehow, …

Life During Wartime
In 1979, NYC alternative rockers Talking Heads released the album called “Fear Of Music”, which included the brutal single called Life During Wartime. This song ultimately became one of the anthems of alternative rock, even to this day. One thing’s consistent though — in wartime …

Blind — or blind ambition?
Gosh I am busy. I’ve literally got so much going on, my head is spinning. My responsibilities are growing daily, and yet, somehow, I’m now taking more time off with my wife and children. Yesterday evening, I actually spent some time playing softball and chasing …

Potential New Product Announcement
The next two days I will be in full-day meetings with my Mentoring and Mastermind Group, here in Tampa, so I won’t be sending out any e-mails. Today I’ll be busy preparing a summary of what’s going on in my own business, to go over …

At a crossroads — or looking over the cliff?
There are many roadblocks and obstacles to overcome in life. If you’re the kind of person who looks at each of these obstacles, losses, or failures as “crossroads,” then you’re going to stop and pause, change direction and regroup, and then start moving forward once …

What The Market Wants – Proof
Yesterday was, BY FAR, the most popular radio show I’ve ever done. We literally had callers back to back, stacked up and waiting to get on the line with me. Now here’s what’s interesting about this: The lion’s share — in fact, the ENTIRE show …

For those about to rock — we salute you.
I received several dozen replies to my comments yesterday regarding the terrible tragedy that happened at Virginia Tech. Some of them were — frankly, ridiculous… and others were a little overboard. But most of them were very sincere heartfelt comments sent in by men and …

It’s not supposed to go down like this.
I’m outraged and disgusted about what happened at Virginia Tech earlier this week. Young men are not supposed to die before their fathers, and beautiful young women shouldn’t leave their mother’s sides when they’re still in college. That’s just not the natural order of things. …

I know EXACTLY how you feel — probably.
A long time ago — in fact, far too long to remember now, I was listening to my friend’s father give him a lecture. The man said something like this, “A wealthy man doesn’t need to tell you how wealthy he is… a smart man …

60 down, 35 to go?
2006 marked the year the first Baby Boomers turned 60. Our generation (I’m one of the last boomers, born in November 1963. The boomer era “ended” 12/31/1963.) has been one of the most consumer-driven generations in history. According to the 2007 Research Alert Yearbook, here …

Don’t listen to my radio show today.
About 6 months ago I was at a meeting speaking about lead generation. Most of the people spent the entire hour sitting there scribbling down notes. At the end of the meeting, a number of people asked how they could “get” more of me, and …

Why get five, when you have to work just as hard to get 25?
Most people don’t think about this, but they ought to. You see, marketing is a numbers game, first, before anything else. For example, last week I had a client here for a full day of consulting and they were asking me if the cost of …

Woke up this morning, got myself a gun.
If you recognize the subject line of today’s tip then you’re probably a fan of the Sopranos television show, which ran the first episode of this season (its final season) last night. The Sopranos is one of the few TV shows I watch. The story …
