Ever do something that didn’t make sense, then wonder, “What made me do that?!!” Or have you ever firmly decided to tackle an important task, then fiddled around, procrastinating till it was way too late?

There’s a lot of talk these days about “the economy,” and it all seems to be bad news. No matter where we go, what we watch, or who we read, the views presented seem uniformly depressing.
Banks are failing… giant corporations are cutting back, merging or shutting their doors completely… people are out of work and [...]

In this age of manic communicating and hyper-activity, we hear many of our success gurus advising us to “take massive action.”
Yes, that can be good advice… but what kind of action? Unfortunately, many of us get it wrong… then spend most of our waking hours in reactive, low-quality activities aimed at simply trying to [...]

“The Best Advice I Ever Got.” I don’t usually pay much attention to the financial magazines, but the headline on this one was too good to pass up, so I bought the May 12 issue of Fortune, and I’m glad I did.
This article presents quotes from 19 high achievers, or as Fortune calls them, “accomplished [...]

As you move yourself forward toward increased success, if you’re doing your work right, you’re going to meet expanding opportunities to serve a wider community, market or audience.
And at each stage of that growth, one side of you is going to dig in its heels and protest desperately, with self-talk such as:

It’s infuriating, right? Somebody makes a promise to you, and then they break it. Or they agree to do something but then blow it off like it doesn’t even matter.
I’m not talking about an occasional can’t-be-helped situation beyond reasonable control, like late air flights, or a wreck tying up traffic. I’m talking about serial agreement [...]

You know, business doesn’t have to be a complex, Harvard-B-school kind of thing, all complicated and hard for ordinary mortals to understand.
