Seth Godin Sunday: The Master of ONE
By Darren Monroe at 20 September, 2009, 6:43 am
I have spoke about this under One Thing at a Time. Unfortunately some don’t “get it.” Multitasking means NOTHING if you can’t DO one thing at a time. International speaker and author Dr Wayne Dyer says “We can only do ONE thing at a time”.

Seth Godin Sunday:If its Magic
By Darren Monroe at 6 September, 2009, 1:44 pm
I was reading the post below by Seth and immediately thought of Stevie Wonders “If it’s Magic” from Songs in the Key of Life. Seth makes a strong point about the job/ role of the online market (entrepreneur).
Fail Fast Forward is my credo! Corporate marketers get eaten alive on this side of marketing. Online marketing [...]
Seth Godin Sunday: Meaning
By Darren Monroe at 30 August, 2009, 5:13 pm
The following is a brilliant thought by Seth. However I am not sure if you are doing it by heart or doing it by “training”. I think we all of us are so used to reacting a certain way that we often don’t STOP to wonder why.

Is Seth Godin Talking about Niche Businesses?
By Darren Monroe at 16 August, 2009, 11:08 am
Is Seth Godin Talking about Niche Businesses? I think so.

2. Be micro-focused and the search engines will find you.
3. Outlast the competition.
4. Leverage.
5. Respond.
And the interesting thing is that said avoided the lists and 5 things [...]

For some time I have been watching YouTube thinking: “Hmmm wonder if they will make money with that model since the big purchase years ago?” Well they are seriously making efforts to step up their advertising.

In 1162 a child, called Temujin, was born in Mongolia clutching a blood clot – a sign that he was destined to be a great warrior. Signs like these encouraged Temujin to believe in his own ability despite early defeats. We, too, need to believe in our own ability, power and destiny.
