What a Swedish Heat Wave Can Teach You about Marketing Perspective
"I feel your pain. I'm having the hottest indoor summer in many, many years here in Ohio, where it's HUMID. This last week is like the others, with inside temps of: 88, 86, 86, 86, 86, 85, and 86 degrees F. The thermostat pegs at 88, so if it's above that I won't know. I like it best between 80 & 84, with 82 being my favorite sleeping temp. It tires me out, and sometimes causes headaches late in the day. My Kitty LOVES it, though. businessavante"“Plans are nothing.

"I read Ike's book, the Magnificent Bastard!! (Really!!) ("Crusade in Europe") The same analogy goes for boxing champions, too. Only the Great boxers can adapt while in the ring when confronted with a style that stymies them. They lose their original fight plan, and react to what's actually happening - or they lose the match. businessavante"Sales Tip A Day: How Much Bad Customer Service Can Cost - Fantasyland Hotel Edmonton
"Worst was their not turning a bad thing posative. I've had 2 bad retail experiences in the last week that caused me to walk out without spending money. In both cases the kicker was their total lack of wanting to help someone who's having a bum experience in their establishment. They could have turned it around, but didn't care. businessavante""LSD": My Formula for Bringing Unique Creativity to Business Writing!
"This is a wonderful article!! Two additional thoughts: 1. Creativity only comes from an unbridled imagination. 2. Music theory & composition books I've read that were written by classical composers say definitely that when a classical composer creates a new piece of music, it usually comes out all at once in their head - they just write it down, and tweak it (Beethoven "tweaked" the 9th symphony for 10 years when he was deaf to get it perfect, but he's Beethoven). They do not compose great music by a "buiding block" method - one idea, followed by another, and so on. Thanks for the inspiration, Yoni, and have a great vacation. businessavante"Subscribe
