Actual for You - What Have You Been Saying?
Created properly, an extremely effective marketing tool.It's a great concept, - and it has a 'cool factor' of 300%.Many people will pop these into their drive just because of image appeal alone. What's really neat is when one is so well done, so informative, so interactive, that everybody wants one.This type of viral marketing can be very effective and create residual traffic to your business. The point I would like to make here is, don't undertake these projects without specific goals in mind. Yes, they are cool, yes, they (themselves) are not that expensive, but witho

In Coaching, we start with a process of envisioning what you truly want. Then I help my clients create a plan to move forward to get what the really want. So, if they’re starting a new business, we create a business plan. If they want to loose weight, we work on a step-by-step approach to achieve vibrant health. If they want better communication at work, we work systematically to achieve this. I think you have the picture.One of the most exciting parts of the plan, however, is to remain open for opportunities that the client never dreamed of. This requires some balance. I have
“That was a great call!” Faith and I had just come from a sales meeting in Halifax. We were on our way to another appointment and were chatting about the success of the last call.
When I get excited, I tend to do everything a little faster than I would normally do things, and this time was no different. We were in normal lunchtime traffic and doing 100 in an 80 zone.
Next thing I knew, the 80 zone was a 60 zone, and the vehicle that I was following, turned off the highway, leaving the way wide open for me.
I normally have this kind of sixth sense for this kind of thing, and I had no sooner said I should slow down, when I crested a small blind hill and on the other side stood a policeman with his radar gun aimed directly at me.
Yes, you know it, he immediately pointed to the side of the road and I dutifully pulled over.
“Hello sir” he said, “Do you know why I pulled you over?”
“I was speeding” I said.
“You were doing 83 in a 60 zone”, and he showed me the readout on the radar.
“You’re absolutely right” I said “I was speeding.”
“Did you see the posted speed sign back there?”
“Yes I did, and I was just starting to slow down, I guess I didn’t slow down fast enough.”
What could I do? He was absolutely right, I was speeding, and I couldn’t deny it. To put up an argument at this point was totally pointless, so I did what my Dale Carnegie training told me to do: If you are wrong, admit it, quickly and emphatically. I also employed rule # 10 from How to Win Friends and Influence People: The best way to win an argument is to avoid it.

What would a wedding reception be without the traditional wedding toast? It’s like having a wedding cake without the icing. The wedding toast is a profoundly moving gesture, as it conveys to the bride and groom the heartfelt wishes of everyone who attended the wedding.Sequence of the ToastsThe wedding toast is usually given first by the best man, then the father, the groom and the bride, and then followed by those who would like to give a toast. Versions may vary, however.Other traditional sequences of wedding toasts also follow the best man as the first one to give the

Last week I wrote, “As well as can be expected,” about the Sacramento real estate market and how it performed in January. One of the larger communities in the Sacramento area is Roseville in Placer County.According to the Sac Bee real estate charts there were 101 homes sold in Roseville during the first month of 2007. This was an expected decline from the December where we have a number of transactions that are closed before year end. The drop in activity from December to January was 19 percent. The number of homes sold this January is the same as sold in January 2006, 101 sales.

Tackling high levels of credit card debt is not an easy thing to do. With the average interest rates charged on credit card loans still hovering at all time record highs, it can be extremely difficult to pay off even a small credit card balance. It is, however, important to pay those balances of, and to do it as quickly as possible. Doing so will not only save you a ton in interest payments and other charges, but it will put you on firmer financial footing when you need money for other things, like buying a house or a car.Missed credit card payments and the like can wreak havoc wi

What Is Heartburn?Heartburn is that burning sensation you feel in your chest. No, it probably isn't a heart attack, although some people might think so. You should have your heartburn checked by a doctor especially if you get it often. Only your doctor can help you determine if you have a serious problem.What Can Cause Heartburn?Heartburn happens when stomach acid flows up into the esophagus or the tube between your mouth and stomach, and irritates its lining. Of course the acid or juices in your stomach, helps digest your food. There is a valve between the stomach
He then proceeded to ask for the customary license, registration and insurance and continued to talk to me. It seemed as if he was surprised that I was being so civil and cooperative. Then he excused himself and went back to his motorcycle with my identification in his hand.
A few moments later he returned.
“Mr. Kearley”, he said, “because of the speed that you were clocked at, I am supposed to give you a ticket, but I am going to adjust it for you so that you don’t have to pay an extra hundred and fifty dollars for speeding. I just wrote it up that you failed to obey a traffic sign. Is that ok?”
He was actually asking me if it was ok that he gave me a ticket.
I wasn’t going to argue with him. I was actually quite impressed with his professionalism. I mean, what could I say? I was in the wrong.
Of course, the ideal situation would have been to avoid getting a ticket, but, you know, when you’re wrong, you’re wrong. To argue with him would have ended in me getting a 300 dollar fine rather than a hundred and fifty dollar one. So I was way cool with that.
Do you ever find yourself at that kind of defining moment where you could go one way or another with your words? You could tell the truth, and take the consequences, or you could tell just a little tiny petite insignificant miniscule white lie and avoid the immediate pain. What does it matter? It’s almost true… right?
These truth traps can happen in moments of complete panic when something simple is on the line, or they could happen in very grave circums
