I can’t always tell if a client is going to not show up for an appointment. But if it’s a no show and no call, that tells me all I need to know.

But what if they call back to reschedule? Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

I think a mail in cash rescheduling fee is the answer!

Howard Lindzon got me thinking the other day when he posted
“I finally got a sales call from LinkedIn $LNKD. It only took 9 years. I guess the ‘funnel’ of web optimization and no human interaction is coming to an end for the big guys….The year 2012 will be about extending the web funnel through hard core human interaction – not just optimizing your website. That will involve persistence, even chasing.”

I imagine this applies not only to business, but also to my social and personal life as well. What do you think?

Over the last 3 days I watched the first 3 Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and really enjoyed the scene with Captain Teague, Keeper of the Code.

The trick is living with yourself forever.

Recently it has seemed pretty chaotic, and I got the advice to be curious and expect miracles. This does seem to tune me into the next big thing and the portal of opportunity. Maybe it will work for you too!

I was thinking about Jesus on Good Friday. It seemed to me that he did not die for our sins so that we would not have to die. It seemed to me he set an example of sin dying so that a person could be reborn. Just saying.

So how do you find Joy? Put some Play in the mix! I hear Jimi being playful here.

In the days of Wooden Ships and Iron Men, to put him in bed with the captain’s daughter meant to flog him with the cat o’ nine tails.
Wikipedia: The naval cat, also known as the captain’s daughter (as in principle it was only used under his authority), weighed about 13 ounces (370 grams) and was composed of a baton (handle) and nine cords. Contrary to popular belief, the standard cat was not the most feared implement; being made of rope, it was less painful than a leather whip or a wooden birch-rod, while the modes of application (number and intensity of lashes, anatomical target, baring) of any implement can be more important than its intrinsic potential.
Now what shall we do in the days of Iron Ships and Wooden Men?

I had no idea that the quote had become associated with Bruce Lee. Of course, he was not the first to say it, won’t be the last, but like water he filled the space!
