Spring is just around
the corner – new growth is popping up in trees, grass and flowers.
And I hope that you are seeing new growth in your life as well.
In a recent podcast I mentioned that our children used to get
“attitude adjustments” when they were little, rather than physical
punishment. A reader asked about that and my daughter Ashley gave a
wonderful description here – now using her own daughter Clara as
the unwilling learner. Attitude
Adjustments

My wife Joanne was
dismayed to see the signs stuck in the medians yesterday as we were
driving leisurely through Franklin, Tennessee. Our local Hollywood
Video store is closing. They recently filed for bankruptcy
protection, citing increasing real estate and labor costs, and
growing competition. They want to close 520 unprofitable stores and
concentrate on 4,000 stronger locations.
Frankly, I think they should liquate their stock and sell the real
estate as quickly as possible.
Here's why ........................................................
Are you using business principles that were effective 20 years ago
- but are dreadfully out of date today? Are you going to fight to continue
selling typewriters - or can you see the writing on the wall and
embrace the inevitable changes?
Read why I think you may need to stop what you're doing. Still Selling Typewriters

Remember the green clay
humanoid figure named Gumby? If you ever had a model Gumby you will
remember that he was infinitely flexible. It appears ole Gumby is
pretty welcome in today’s workplace.
...................................
Companies everywhere are discovering that happy workers are more
productive - and one of the biggest factors in keeping people happy
is providing them flexible work schedules and locations. Even the
U.S. government has discovered that flexible work schedules result
in “greater employee productivity, higher levels of sustained
performance, reduced traffic congestion and air pollution, and
reduced real estate costs.”Could you imagine working from home for
your current employer? Would you want that arrangement? Do you have
a place in your home where you could have a work mind-set? Do you
need help in creating a flexible work proposal for your boss?
Here are things you can propose to your boss:

Each week I create a new
online radio podcast — answering a few of the many questions we
receive. This week I was a guest on Dave Ramsey’s radio show – and
put that interview here. We covered how to make yourself
“recession-proof” and take advantage of new ways to generate
income. Dan’s
Online Radio Show.
Also, here is a short clip of an interview with Dave on his Fox
Business show. Dave hammers home the fact that one half of the
equation for financial wealth is creating income – managing it well
is the other half. He asks me about “risk” and what the key issues
for success really are. Dan and Dave on

I don't know what we'll
do without you, but we are certainly going to try!
We told everyone you are leaving because of illness. The truth is,
I'm sick of you.
Its not that you aren't a responsible worker. In fact, you've been
responsible for more disasters than any one else in the place.
Today I'm going to mix business with pleasure. You're fired!
I've got good news for you. You won't have to worry about being
late for work here 'ever again'.
Tell me - how long have you been with us not counting tomorrow?

Breath & Water comes to us from Larry Andron, an independent

testing found a solution for. When he purchased this air purifier,
all of her symptoms finally subsided. She’s two years free of itch

allergy and other health problems can be caused by airborne
contaminants, Larry investigated the business opportunity. It turns
