Discover your passion

We’ve always been fascinated with people that are passionate about what they do. There’s just something infectious about their passion that just makes watching them do their work, or experiencing the fruits of their labor very enjoyable.
For instance, over on the BBC, they have this story about a director from Montevideo, Uruguay named Fede Alvarez . Fede got a $30 million deal to make a Hollywood movie but that’s not the interesting part of the story.
What’s interesting about this story, is that Fede got that job because he released …

Anything you say can and will be used against you

I subscribe to Tech Republic emails, mainly for my regular job, but also because I’m a geek and enjoy reading geeky things. Anyway, one of the topics that I get Tech Republic emails about are  employment and HR issues.
In one of those HR related Tech Republic emails, they were talking about how employers could be held liable for making employment decisions based on social networking profiles.
In the discussion forum about the topic, people were arguing for both sides.
One camp was arguing that information posted in the public domain, such …

What Matters Now

Back when I first started online, I subscribed to every thing. Every list, every blog, every product launch you name it I was on that list. As time went on, I discovered the “unsubscribe” button and learned to use it liberally.
Nowadays, I subscribe to fewer than 10 lists and I actually regularly read less than 5 of those. It’s not that the remaining lists I’m subscribed to aren’t good, it’s just that during any given week only 3 or 4 of those emails have a subject that interests me.

How To Spot An SEO Scam

I recently wrote a post explaining what SEO, or Search Engine Optimization is and gave you a very brief outline of how SEO is done. Today, I’d originally planned to talk about SEM, aka Search Engine Marketing but I received an email that I just had to share with you first.
The email, is from someone that I’ve never heard of, came completely unsolicited and is by definition spam. Here’s the text of the email for your perusal:
We would like to get your website on first page of Google.

Soda pop stop video

This is awesome. This guy is named John Neese and he has some serious passion about what he sells and what he does for a living.
The video is about 13 minutes long, but it’s well worth watching. I had no idea that there were so many different brands and types of “flavored water with a lot of bubbles.”

There are several important business lessons in this video. The most important, in my opinion, is to be passionate about what you do. You also need to be knowledgeable about your market and …
