Read MoreWeight Loss, Marketing Similar?
Over the last couple of months I’ve been working out at the gym pretty regularly and have been working on losing weight at the same time. I’m doing this for multiple reasons, like loosing weight due to sitting at the computer for 12+ hours a day, being healthier so that I can be around longer…
Read MoreLost In A Niche
I really enjoy listening to music, and I listen to a lot of different types. I utilize music to get me in a mood, out of a mood, motivate me or calm me down. One thing I’ve noticed with music more and more is they’ve over niche’d the genres. What I mean by this is…

Read MoreAre You “Puzzled”
Just read a post on the blog of a friend of mine. (Jim Howard’s Blog at Live Life Revolution) It’s titled “Build The “Right” Puzzle” and with out giving to much away he does a great job “outlining” the process of building your puzzle so that you can get back on track. If you have…
