Are You Easily Distracted?

If so, you might like to read a copy of April's newsletter. I doubt you could get through a day without being distracted in one way or another by something. Either externally - by the phone, email and other people or internally - by your thoughts or a change in focus, particularly if you're working on something that is either difficult or doesn't really hold your interest. We're only human and we're easily bored and it's too easy to let these distractions interrupt the flow. What distra… Continue

Bullying and Peer Pressure Does Not End In the Playground

Childhood brings up many memories -- school, playing with our friends and enjoying holidays with our family. It can also bring back those uncomfortable remembrances of peer pressure. Were we wearing the right clothes, hanging out with the right crowd or doing the right things to fit in?

Friend Requests and Online Networking

Imagine you are at a cocktail party.

Would you simply walk up to someone you've never met before and begin the conversation with "Hi, let's be friends"? Probably not.

I was recently at a large event where everyone was wearing name tags. At the end of the evening, as everyone was getting ready to leave, I came face to face with a man I'd never met before in my life. He took a quick look at my name tag, avoided eye contact, thrust his business card into my jacket pocket and said:… Continue

My Heartfelt Thanks

Thank you so much to all those who responded to my plea for help. You know who you are. I would not want to embarrass you by naming who you people are.

The gift of education is so priceless. It is one of the treasures we have that can never be stolen from us.

My daughter, Angel, goes to a very good school. I would want the same for the other Filipino kids. I would want them to have the same opportunities that Angel would have because of her education. Our kids are the future… Continue

Would You Like To Help?

Last month, I did some spring cleaning and donated some of our old books to a public school near my house. My favorite activity to show clients' sense of social responsibility is always holding a book drive.

I was wondering if any of you might like to give away old books to the children in this public school. The school is called Bucal Elementary School and it's about 5 minutes away from my house. Poor kids have obsolete books. Most are useless junk that corporations give to them. Those… Continue

Valuing Your Time

"What is your time worth?"

If you are a salaried employee, you probably answered with the amount of your annual salary.

If you are a contract employee, or a freelancer, you probably answered with your hourly rate.

But today I want you to think about the value of your time from a few different angles.

Over a year ago, I wrote an article called "What's Your Life Worth?" that asks you to take a "big pictu… Continue

Your Brand New Website--Not

I'm in the throes of relaunching my website, and can't help but think of some advice Dave Barry had about real-life moving: Just light a match, toss it in your front door, and run. You may think it would be a horror to watch your house go up in flames, but the other way just drags out the pain. Where is the equivalent of that moving service that even unpacks your dishes on the other end, carefully placing each dish on its new shelf? I can't even get the commas in the right places. And I hate… Continue
