QUOTE OF THE WEEK...
"Appearances are often deceiving."

BUSINESS TIP OF THE WEEK...
Stop doing so much! Look for ways to cut busy work. Group small tasks and do them during down time. Or outsource peripheral chores at a cost that's less than what you make working on your core business.

rob rauf: INSPIRATION
- 03/27/14 02:55 AM
Here is the secret of inspiration:
Tell yourself that thousands and tens of thousands of people, not very intelligent and certainly no more intelligent than the rest of us, have mastered problems as difficult as those that now baffle you.

This one is so spot on, how often have you had conversations with people that can barely tie their own shoes? Yet we get in our own way every day.

rob rauf: The Answers To The Questions Your Clients Ask-THAT YOU CANT ANSWER
- 03/25/14 02:38 AM
How often do you have clients that ask the questions you know you can't answer?
The demographics of an area, crime rates etc...
