    Getting Down To Business

    Today's message shares nine ways to help prevent the "ghosting" effect. As we all know, ghosting is when you believe you are building a trusting relationship when silence enters the picture and all communications come to a halt. You can't completely eliminate this slice of reality but you can increase the odds for better outcomes. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Luck Favors The Prepared Mind

    Louis Pasteur first said it. I am quick to endorse it. Today's reminder is also highly recommended. Do not leave your future success to a wish, a hope and a prayer. Hedge your bet by meticulously following a well-designed plan in all areas required for company ongoing success. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Downhill Ski Lesson Take 2!

    It was twenty-eight years ago in 1998 when I first spotted the phenomenon that I quickly referred to as the 1.6% Rule. It had to do with the differential time-wise between the first place finisher and the skier who finished in 17th place. well, the same thing happened last week with come-back star Lindsey Vonn taking the gold and another 17th place finisher. My rule lives on. Take a listen. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Finding Time To Think & Planning Your Future

    As General Eisenhower once reminded us: " Plans are seldom followed. The act of planning is everything." Today's final message of 2025 suggests that we find the time and make the time to think about where we are planning to go in the next twelve months. Keep this year's new year's resolution real. Let's make 2026 a special year for all of us. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Honor The "Plateau"

    Sometimes we just need to take a break from the strenuous work we devote to masking our craft. The piano drove this point home to me this week and it was supported by chance when I began preparing for an upcoming presentation focusing on "Branding." Give me five minutes and see if what I have to say today resonates with you. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Just a Little Bit of Help

    Today I have a double message for you. I've shared this advice before but it keeps on popping up. If and when you think of somebody for no reason at all, find a moment to contact them sooner rather than later. Don't question the reasoning. Just do it. My second reminder had to do with a snow filled driveway and a Propane Truck. The weight of the truck, the slant of the driveway and the slickness of the snow pack made it impossible to deliver a much needed fuel order. With just a little bit of assistance in the form of small grains of sand, was enough to induce enough traction to mount the hill. I hope this experience came with an obvious reminder. Just a tad more assistance is often all that is required to get over a perceived insurmountable problem. Tune in, Listen up. And then go call somebody.

    An Email Lesson You Can Take To The Bank

    Never underestimate the power, and opportunity, that an unsolicited email may introduce to your marketing efforts. Categorizing incoming emails as SPAM can be, and often proves to be, a cop out. Listen to today's lesson and take notes. The next one could very possibly be the Big One. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
