I've got a couple of surprises for all my social media connections & followers, in other words: Friends! I can't wait to show you later on!

Remember when we said "Don't trust anyone over 30"? George & John are gone! Crosby Stills Nash & so many others are in-near their 70s! Scary

Made some interesting observations over the last couple of days 1) Some people say no! To everything-always 2) "Permission" is situational!

Had the most amazing chocolate chip cannoli at Buca di Beppo last night! It's 2:25am! I think there's 1 in the fridge calling my name! Yup!

TuffGuy & I had a blast tonight on our midnight walk! Wait 'til you see what we did! 30 hours & we'll reveal all! Well, I'll reveal it!

Seth Godin is right! But I'd extend the post to life! Do we "Manage" our life or do we "Run" our life? Huge distinction http://bit.ly/aC6qHi

“Being maniacal about something is very helpful.” Bill Gates ~~ Agreed!

Want to be successful? Want to make money? Forget about both! Focus on the other person's needs, wants & desires! Make a friend~Make a sale!

Reading "tweets," trying to find things to comment on, I was struck by "Expert Services For Search Engine Optimazation" See the problem? Hm?

Well it's midnight & I met with 3 ongoing clients & 1 new client today beginning at 9am. Now? It's TuffGuy's time until 2am! Love our walks!

Malcolm Gladwell's "Blink" has really opened my eyes (pun & all) to just how quickly we access situations & are affected by 1st impressions!

People don't believe me when I tell them I interview my clients more than they interview me. Pick your clients well & you'll always prosper!

Added a new client today! I usually meet prospective clients 3Xs before taking them on. I almost didn't take a contract with me. Almost!

I really like my dentist but not following up after a rough appt blows a crucial opportunity to build a relationship! Very common mistake!

I've been listening to/reading "Blink" by Malcolm Gladwell (again) & it's brilliant! Really makes you think about perception & assumptions!
