L is for Lizard Brain: This is a huge impediment to getting what you want, finding your calling and satisfying your customers,You can have someone take a short speech based on your book and have them turn it into a animated video For twenty years, the Billboard charts were easy to manipulate,Get in the habit of winning, of shipping, of having customers that can't live without you
The feedback I'm getting from the Shipit journal is that it changes people, makes them uncomfortable and gets things out the door,And great bowlers come whisker-close to hitting the perfect score regularly For the next six months, all eyes are on the big show,Other than one or two insightful mavericks, most of them looked at me like I was nuts for being an optimist
The very politicians you're trying to send a message to don't want you to vote,Let me add one more easily overlooked point: Western-style consumers have been taught from birth the power of the package You could probably build something way better, in fact,Some days, even the best dentist doesn't feel like being a dentist
When you get good at whining, you start noticing evidence that makes your whining more true,Another way, probably a better one, is to have each member of the team announce what they're afraid of Logic is a battering ram, one that might work if your case is overwhelming,People would see the direction an election was going and be more likely to be pulled in
It turns out that a fast-growing trend is also likely to become a fast-fading trend,Marketing is too powerful, imho, to be wasted diminishing someone's humanity How can schools justify taking $100,000 in cash and teaching exactly the wrong stuff?,Going fast, doing your best and then slamming into a cliff works best for Wile E
I think you should fire this person immediately,Then the accurate statement is, Under the current rules and assumptions, we're going to run out of cash The first one is critical, because if you don't have permission, or knowledge, or word of mouth, you're invisible,A sick peacock isn't as spectacular as a healthy one
A friend is someone who has interacted with you, or who knows your parents or reads your blog��someone with history,You have tickets to the Springsteen concert Frank Eliason gave up Tweeting for a day to share his thoughts with us as well,The chances that your effort will be rewarded with income in proportion to the time you put in are pretty low
Today, it's almost certainly the opposite of what you're doing,Endless negotiations are like teaching a cat to swim If you haven't read his book turned into a blog, time to catch up,The problem is that they sabotage your real goals, the achievement ones
Convenience is hugely attractive in organizations because it is easy to defend and easy to approve,then they did the trick and we were saved The problem, as far as I can tell, is that it is trying to be the next Google,The ad or blog post or tweet is a desperate attempt at attention, at keeping people from switching it off or booing
Doubling reward again from B to C, though, brings significant incremental risk,There are new people who need to learn the proper etiquette for interacting on your site When you start a business, a brand or a project, there's a lot of work to be done,10 seconds is fine and so is five minutes
Who cares what other people think? He has faith in his gut,Too many people, when asked for their opinion, dissemble Carnegie apparently said, Take away my people, but leave my factories and soon grass will grow on the factory floors,It makes some things better and some things worse
I'm talking about designing products that are simultaneously remarkable and palatable to people in the middle of the market,Politicians market every time they speak up at a press conference And a week��s worth of that is just about all the typical entrepreneur is going to need,Prediction: 90% of your sales will come from word of mouth or digital promotion by 2011
