As a libertarian, I respectfully make no bones about my belief that the highest value a country can embrace is the rights of the individual. With that, government’s major legitimate function is simply to protect those rights. This creates an environment where people can create value and trade freely with one another. (Protected from force…
There’s a saying which, for many years, has been one of my personal favorites: “How you do anything is how you do everything.” This point is often hammered home by my friend, Achievement Authority Tom Terwilliger, as he did in this recent post. It was a consistent theme throughout T. Harv Eker’s book, Secrets of…
In a recent post it was suggested that before we could influence others regarding the value we provide them, we must first influence ourselves. In other words, we must understand (and really embrace) the great value we provide if we are going to be able to successfully communicate it to our prospective customers and clients.…
Recently, a very hokey movie was on television and I got hooked on it, watching it all the way through. Not only was the storyline hokey, the acting was so bad…that I could tell it was bad. Usually, I cannot; this time I could. However, there was one line that made it all worthwhile. The…
Have you ever heard someone tell you that your product (or service, opportunity, idea, etc) “won’t work here” (or, in this business, this company, this region of the country, etc.)?

Fear. Not fun to talk about but, when we do, we name – and shed light upon – perhaps the number one thing that holds us back regarding whatever we would like to accomplish. Could that really be true though? Does fear really play that big a role in our lives? According to internationally-known speaker…
Before we can influence others, we must first be able to influence ourselves that we have something of value to offer. I mean, if *we* wouldn’t listen to us…why would anyone else? At my live programs, I often bring up the story of my great friend, Amy Wells, owner of The Bridal Salon of San…
Over the past 30 years, Zig Ziglar has been holding an annual life-enhancing course at his Dallas headquarters entitled, “Born to Win.” The principles he has so generously shared have help graduates to live a life of great success in the various areas success includes: physical, spiritual, mental, emotional, social, relational, etc. Now, Zig teams…
Like many content-providers, I am disturbed by the huge amount of intellectual property theft over the Internet. Sure, it occurred pre-Internet but the now robust amount of easily accessible information has made this a profound issue.
