PURDUE KEYS AGAINST UCONN

While UConn has been playing lights out in its last two games, feasting against a 16th and 8th seed, here is why I think Purdue has a decent shot at pulling out the upset ... it depends on match ups, defensive “trickeration”, offensive tempo and, again, hitting threes and open shots. Remember, Michigan played UConn exceptionally well at UConn because it did three key things: 1) Michigan players hit their outside shots 2) They set tempo, and 3) Michigan neutralized UConn's interior strength with… Continue

Making the best of 2009

As we pursue happiness we often don't realize how much we resist our own path. We need to trust our circumstances and stay open to what life is giving us. David Richo has a great passage in his book "The Five Things We Cannot Change and the Happiness We Find by Embracing Them" 'Hamlet speaks of "the thousand natural shocks that flesh is heir to," a poetic definition of the givens of life. When something happens to us that echos with the painful thud of any of the unalterable conditions of exist… Continue

Interpreting Reality

Once you experience a thought, vision, sound, feeling, or sensation you are seeing things through a filter of your own beliefs and brain capacity. It is your own reality and no others'. And yet, the relation between reality and one's mind is what we call "truth." Ontological unity is a struggle because truth is an individuals' perception. It can only be known in the context of their own perception. So, as Nietzsche would argue, their is no absolute truth. When a majority "agrees" on a truth, we… Continue

Strategic Emotional Intelligence as driver for success, achievement and growth

Fellow Biznik member Russell Cox recently asked me how I would describe myself as a business leader. I paused to think of an answer.

I think, I can: The Seeds Of Our Thoughts And The Creative Mind

I think the Law of Attraction is indisputable. In order to take advantage of its properties, a person must have a clear understanding of how the law works. The secret behind the book, “The Secret,” is more than just wishful thinking, closing your eyes, and waiving a wand of imagery. The Law of Attraction is basically a law of manifestation: What manifests in your life is what your attention is focused upon. Skeptics say that the Law of Attraction doesn’t exist. It’s the law of “self fulfilling… Continue

Living a Better Life

There are many times that everyone has felt overwhelmed, lost, out of control - pressure coming from all sides: Work, family obligations, mortgage payments, stretching finances, health challenges, marital strife. And then, it’s as if some universal law of momentum kicks in. Like a dam, ready to burst, first a few leaks, then more, then holes, then cracks. You fix up one leak and two more spring forth. You fill a crack and six more need to be filled. The harder you try, the farther back you get… Continue

In These Chaotic Times, You can't do it Alone.

In these chaotic times, you can't do it alone. This has never been more true than now and this has never been more true than in my field of specialty - small business startups and entrepreneurship.

When things are changing this fast, and this permanently, no one of us is going to have all of the ideas and insights… Continue

Measuring Results

The key to measuring results is make sure you are clear on the goal, however many times we start out on a path and half way thru the journey we realize we never wanted to be there in the first place. Get clear on what it is that you really want and by when. Make a plan for getting there with realistic checkpoints along the way. Write your goal down so that you can check in with it from time to time and make sure you leave yourself enough wiggle room in your timeline to make mistakes. "Trust me… Continue

Subliminal Sabotage

Through out life, we often focus on the things that don’t or didn’t work. And we continue to do that which doesn’t work or will not work. We become trained in this negative conversation, and it becomes habitualized - when we surround ourselves with people who have the same views. Subconsciously, we chain ourselves down and hold on to negative results and negative thought patterns we have created – as if they were gold. On a deeper level it becomes an addiction – the negative thought patterns,… Continue

Ask for HELP

Recently as I am going thru the process of developing my business I discovered that I had a block to asking for support from my business partners. I have an attorney and an accountant on retainer and I did not ask their opinion about a matter that regarded sales and profitability. I am not sure why I waited so long, but somehow I forgot they were excellent businessmen in their own right and they sold me on the advantages of doing business with them early on in our relationship. The truth is tha… Continue

The pursuit of happiness

When asked if I was happy I had to smile because I wanted to say I have no idea. The truth is I have no idea how to measure happiness or for that matter success. All I have as a yardstick is whether or not I have created a lifestyle that allows me the freedom to do the things I want to do when I want to do them. For instance I love spending time walking my dog on the beach. I used to agonize over the process of taking time to get him ready, drive to the beach and take at least an hour so that w… Continue

Thinking about the most important things today.

A thought I had that the we are not in the pursuit of achievement or success, but the pursuit of what matters. We get to decide what that is for each of us, but in the end it is only that we are doing work that makes a difference. Whatever your pursuit make it count. Small contributions matter more than anyone can measure. David Dusseau, Life Coach, Entrepreneur My Profile, Co… Continue
