Bargain Hunting

Who doesnt love finding a great sale? What is even better is when someone takes the time to compliment you on your latest find. After receiving the flattering comment we usually thank them for their kind words but will also have to share with them that we saved a whack load of money on the item they are admiring.

The Death of Dreams
Published:03/08/2011 12:25pm
I am often asked this question that has so many in a conundrum: how does one find or tap into what their passion is in life? My answer in most cases is this. Stop sabotaging your potential by your negative self-talk.Sometimes I think that it is not life itself that brings about fatigue in so many of us. I believe that it is our never-ending thoughts that can lead us down the road of exhaustion. Our mind never stops. Even when we lay our heads on the pillow at night our brain is working overtime. We have so many thoughts running...

This may be the most discussed aspect of business. Why? Because it is extremely important to any company no matter what the industry. Then it would make sense that most of the training given to employees would be about customer service.

Guilty as Charged

When I was younger, I had a relationship that broke my heart. Adverbs, adjectives and accolades did not do him justice. He was the perfect man. No matter how many times he showed his true colors, I was steadfast in my belief that he was perfect. I languished in my illusion (actually delusion) of his perfection. I was in love. I didnt know what to do. There was no expert who could guide me. No published Q A pertinent for my situation. I searched for a plan, a guidebook, and a path to success: how I can get the storybook...
