Skills

A prerequisite to gaining any skill is acknowledgement of your deficiency, willingness to eliminate it, and perseverance until strength replaces struggle.

What skill re you dying to pick up?

What incremental goal will help you become that person?

What can you do in the next hour to advance toward that incremental goal?

Here, Take This

Requesting entry without an invitation can either mean you want something of theirs or you have something for them.

Learning helps us buy a seat at the table where decisions are made for tomorrow.

Learning is never easy but always worth it.

Good Clients and Good Freelancers

The good clients are the ones who find your service worthy of a bottomless budget and generous deadlines.

Now That’s Marketing

Keep making things better by making better things.

Now that’s marketing!

Don’t Make Them Stronger

Deny any bargaining with fear and insecurity.

It will only make them stronger.
