There have been reports of panty-less trips to clubs and passing out drunk. This morning there was a report indicating that even the stylist was throwing up her hands as Mr. Blackwell placed Britney in a tie for first on his annual “Worst Dressed List.” It would seem that things are not looking good for the girl from Louisiana. For her part Britney does not seem to be ignorant to the turn her life has taken. Shortly after the New Year, Britney posted a “le...

Many people know how important body language is in effective persuasion and communications. Thus, when you're trying to emphasize a certain point or idea, simply saying how enthused you are with an event is not enough.

In order to express your statements fully, you need to accompany your expressions and comment...

Sometimes, when clients hear, "What is your strategy?", there is a deafening silence on the other end of the line. Not only do they have no strategy, they have no concept of the meaning of the word. So what is a strategy and how do you develop one? The American Heritage College Dictionary’s first definition of strategy is, "The Science and Art of using a nation’s forces to execute approved plans as effectively as possible." Leaving aside the military aspect of this definition, substitute a few words, and for our purposes, you get, "The Science and Art of using a client’s resources and ski...

Before a commercial airplane takes off, the pilot has a very clear destination in mind, and a flight plan to get there. The plane leaves at a specific time, and takes off toward a specific destination. The plane is off track, though, at least 90% of the time. Weather conditions, turbulence and other factors cause this. However, feedback is given to the pilot constantly. The inertial guidance system of the aircraft continually helps the pilot evaluate and revise the planes position to reach the expected destination on time. The plane takes off on time, arrives on time, and yet is off cour...

This something has the power to dispel sorrow and transform our lives into one of wholeness and joy. It has the power to heal division and of...

Here’s an empowering twist on a common success question. In one form or another, this question is part of countless goal-setting programs. And it is one of the reasons many find goal-setting ineffective. The question is “Why do you want this?” I’ve discovered that this question is not nearly as effective as it might be. “Why do you want this?” can be answered with a shrug or a defensive, even an exasperated “Because that’s what I want!” This answer, while understandable, does not light up the imagination or crackle with feelings of success. And any goal-setting question that doe...
