“Economists explain that wealth has ‘declining marginal utility,’ which is a fancy way of saying that it hurts to be hungry, cold, sick, tired, and scared, but once you’ve brought your way out of these burdens the rest of your money is an increasingly useless pile of paper. ” (Gilbert 239). So my interpretation of [...] Every Webmaster Needs Success Data Every webmaster eventually knows that he or she needs tracking. The ability to track visitors, clicks, and the browsers, geographical regions, and more data of each visitor to your site is invaluable information! Properly setting up tracking is like learning about your customer so you can better serve the [...] “In the Middle Ages, the time served apprentice went off as a journeyman to gain experience with a number of masters, and then settled down under one master he got on with. Here he would produce his masterpiece – literally, the piece of work that proved he was a master. This recognised by the Guild, [...] Everyone possessing a modicum interest in success, learns precision. From musicians hitting the right note on time, to engineers designing electric circuits, to wordsmiths selecting the most clever phraseology from their diction, to computer scientists optimizing their code, to any profession. Everyone focused on success, focuses on precision. The Ways I work. One of the ways I’ve noticed I do things is by deciding to do something else and then randomly changing it AND scheduling something ahead of time. This is complex, but it amazingly works. First off, I was plagued by scheduling things on a calendar and then 90% of the time [...] PIVOT is yet another VYL-Created technique. It’s very catchy, considerably more complex than SPS (rightfully so given intention of SPS!), and cognitively caters to how the brain works, ensuring that the neo-cortex quickly picks up and absorbs the functionality of this technique. In other words, this technique has been designed to be “appetizing” for [...] [audio: http://validateyourlife.com/vylab/vylab_20110916_coachconsultantteacher.mp3] Time:03:47 Edify on the Go! A coach is often erroneously misconstrued1 as a consultant and/or teacher/mentor. Your average consultant is printing out graph charts and presenting research data. The average teacher is shoving in and ideally delivering knowledge to the students’ minds (a fairly noble task,indeed). Now think of someone helping you [...] [audio: http://validateyourlife.com/vylab/vylab_20110906_beckham.mp3] Edify on the go! Time: I’m planning to read a bit more on Beckham as someone who, for lack of better words, has “wired himself efficiently”. He has healthy habits and I admire his polished style and his OCD organization and he’s ONE good looking man and he plays soccer; Beckham is [...] Banal Earning Work This is distinguishing from work that is meaningful and also happens to earn. Usually “earning work” in this sense means work that you just do, and wouldn’t touch with a ten foot pole if you didn’t earn, to earn. For me, it was working in a restaurant, bakery, and anything like working [...]

“Trying to achieve” something presupposes failure or at the very least difficulty. When you “try” to do something you automatically install challenge. When you’re brushing your teeth, you don’t “try to brush your teeth“; you just “brush your teeth” because it’s simple, natural, and easy. The same [...] Coaches unquestionably need agility in coaching sessions. We need a lot of agility. We may have a client who continually reverts to a state of negative self-dialogue, and we need to adroitly continue to phase that out and phase in the client’s positive self-concept; or we could have a client whom resorts to fraudulent stories [...] The whole “work hours” thing is a foreign concept to me. Maybe because I just don’t make a distinction between work and play, or (most likely) I just always work. Sometimes I wake up and start work at 2am. Sometimes I just don’t ever go to sleep and take a nap in the middle of [...] Buy Stock Option Example: July $50 call option for Walgreens is $1.66 (1.66/share, always in round lot, so $166) July = Expiration Month (it’s always the 3rd friday of the month!) $50 = strike price When the Option Expires. Decision Flow ———->Sell the option (yes = sold; no = lost money) Expiration ———-> Excercise [...]

Professionalism, formality, closure and safety are all important. Read on to see why contracts move goals forward! 1. Formality. It adds to the REALNESS of the coaching relationship for BOTH the client and coach. As a coach I don’t want some client [...] just woke up, just water, wore black (Great), no food, no coffee before, energizing awesome convo. good. I saw a darren brown and david tennant clip (for darren’s tv show) and I relized that they went out into public to have a woman draw a picture and david was supposed to have predicted [...] My Elevator Speech is called “Specifics of Application”. I’ve chiseled this down to being able to deliver it in 15 seconds. I love it and am interested and psyched about practicing it more. Everytime I’ve practiced it, I’ve gotten great “reviews”. Great Reviews from an elevator speech means: 1) If I tell the person it’s [...] Thank the Google God, the Yahoo Yogi, and the Live Leader that this site exists. It’s truly awesome and has answered many of my SEO questions. I’m beginning to see how the working world works. How people invent products that are completely useless, copying various competitor brands, when always the simplest (and cheapest) is always the best. The simple best cheapest products stand out on a store shelf. Example: I went to go pick up dog shampoo. I knew the [...] There exist thousands of very lengthy and elaborate interview guides. You’re welcome to search and read those but I chose a different route: providing an incredibly concise list that you can actually remember when you’re feeling anxious about the interview. I made up this mnemonic for remembering four essential interview characteristics: SCAP. SCAP (A Brilliant [...] Today has transformed itself into a bit – quite a bit – of a writing/email day and if I catch your response at another time, it may not “be a writing day” so might as well write this now. I get a lot of emails from old professors, old friends, various net forums, applications, job [...] Everything, I have realized, in life is an investment and I, a mere stocktrader. Experiences, this “visit” to chicago, are all simply investments. You can look at this as mechanical or robotic, or “emotionless”, but it is the undeniable truth. Furthermore, because everything is merely an investment, the best trader knows when to buy (of [...] Erik Erikkson talked about (after the search for identity commences) four stages of identity development, diffused(haven’t started), foreclosed (prematurely defined), moratorium (still defining), and achieved (identity achievement). One of the biggest things preventing people from reaching identity achievement is “celebrity conglomerate syndrome” (CCS).
