Yesterday I had a Skype chat session with a Pakistan based Poultry Farm CEO, about my Excel-VB Poultry Farm Manager.

Michael Angier once wrote that: “Reading can be a powerful catalyst for thinking; it has the potential for stimulating wisdom.”. I agree…but I would add that the “kind” of reading you do, will often be more important than the frequency at which you do it! For instance, in talking about “reading”, I’m not referring here […]

The ideas I offer here can benefit members of sales and marketing teams in companies, who, in addition to offline efforts, have been tasked to use the web to find buyers, by the company (be it micro business or multinational) that employs them. And of course solo operators (e.g. independent consultants/professionals) who do self-marketing, will […]

Yesterday (6th July 2014) was my 44th birthday. While reflecting, this quote awoke memories in me: “When man is pushed, tormented, defeated, he has a chance to learn something; he has been put on his wits, on his manhood, he has gained facts, learns from his ignorance, is cured of the insanity of conceit; has […]

Some CEOs, top managers or executives get so busy they suffer exhaustion. I make no claims to being perfect, but NO JOB I’ve done in paid employment, or as an entrepreneur, has EVER overwhelmed me. Indeed, despite being often accused of doing too many things, I – very frequently – get it ALL done on […]
