Do you swear in your business? I’ve always wondered if there is a place for this in business. Tony Robbins swears a lot. I attended his Unleash the Power Within workshop (UPW) a few years ago and to be honest, I was a little shocked. He says he does it intentionally...

My husband recently sent me the “The Tail End” blogpost (1) from the waitbutwhy.com site. Tim Urban (2) has written about procrastination, amongst other topics for a number of years. This blog post was rather sobering. It laid out an average human life span in...
