I was being offered a job at Bank One. The base was $28,000 and it rose I think to $32,000 when I got my series 6 license. It provided me with some security, and since my lifestyle was arranged around a cash need of under $1,000 a month, it also would pay me well, [...]
Part One Of 4. I married GenuineWife in 2002. We’ve been married 6 years, then, and she’s been fantastic. Since our baby #2 is due next Thursday, I figured I’d put my sharp stick away and look at the past a little bit. She was 22. I was still 25, nearly 26. I was enjoying [...]
Every salesperson fancies himself a sales trainer, a sales manager, a sales ‘guru’ of sorts. I am, I guess, not different in this regard. Part of this desire is innate; the same skills that lead us to want to enter sales (i.e. wanting to connect, wanting to help) make us want to help other [...]
I didn’t quite get through my blog facelift this weekend. I did, however, clean up a lot of old content, organize it better, and made everything searchable. Instantly, I noticed hits from it, which is fodder for a future guest post somewhere else. It’s almost time for me to go to the [...]

Prospecting is one key to this business. (Ah, there are many spokes to a wheel.) I’m committed to the four hour workweek ethos. I’m committed to being radically different tomorrow than I am today. And in order to earn the privilege of having my [...]
OK: I have until 9am to post that I’ve been to the gym; 7:30 is the ultimate goal but 9a is the time. Also, it’s M-F first;
In 23 work days, earning $56,000 is just $2434 per day; Stretched to the US Average 229 work days, that would be $557k. (There are of course diminishing returns). Anyway, moving along: I’m going to track personal metrics in two categories: Daily Checklist Items Positive numbers Activity Numbers Checklist items are stuff like “morning [...]
OK, more is coming, but I’ve built the v 1.0 of the spreadsheet that I want to use. More or less a personal dashboard. Google Docs is a cool way to track goals. http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pClJAY-891OZkltohj8y2Zg Now to give you a taste? To be sure, it needs some love attention etc. And I need to clean [...]
Planning is good. Putting your intention on what you’re here to give is good. But tweaking your plans, then re-tweaking them quickly gets into procrastinationland. And I don’t wanna be part of procrastiNATION. That said: Today is about one day’s worth of sincerely focused planning, thinking, and intentions. This is the last day this [...]
