Verizon To Offer iPad Come October 28th

Who Created Evil?

I really have been struggling to write on a regular basis these days and it is really starting to bother me.  The only way, I feel, that I can get out of this rut is to follow the advice of one of the people I look up to, former Nike CEO, Philip Knight.  Just Do It!  So here goes…

Have A Small Business Idea?

With the emergence of companies like LifeLock, Fathead.com, PrintPlace and Vacation Home Rentals, it’s proven that a small idea can lead to a great and successful business.  The first task is to think of a business that would be suitable for a particular business market.  LifeLock was founded during a time when identity theft and credit card fraud was at an all time high.  It’s success was guaranteed with timing and market coverage.  After coming up with an idea, the next step is to put that idea into action.  Of course, this is a very difficult step and having the idea is only the start of the journey.  You may be able to get a Government Grant to start the business depending on the market and it’s possible impact on the economy both on a local and national level.  Check out my ebook on How, When and Where to Apply For Government Grants.

So You Want To Be A Freelancer?

Over the last couple years, I have been asked by several friends and associates, “Why are you freelancing?” After telling them that it’s mainly because I love what I do and love working for myself they usually want to find out how they can get into it too!   Don’t get me wrong, Corporate America isn’t all bad.  But just like college, it’s not for everybody.  We hear people say “I hate my job” all the time but some people hate WORKING, not the job they are doing!  It’s easy to hate what you do for a living but it is even easier to do what you love for a living, especially in today’s economy.

I’m Golfing Now

It’s been months since I last posted but I’m finally getting back around to be caught up with life, work, family and me again!  I haven’t been able to get out and play basketball like I used to (3 to 4 times a week) in the past and I needed something else to fill that physical void.  I tried going back out to USF and playing some pickup basketball but it’s been a couple years since I’ve been out there and it would take months to get back to the shape I would be comfortable with running around with a bunch of 18-21 years old kids with an endless supply of energy…  So what is a 32 year old man with a urge to get out and do something to exert some energy do?  GOLF!  Yes, I’ve been taking lessons now for about a month and regret not picking this game up sooner!

I’ll keep you guys up to date on my progress…  I promise I will be blogging at least 3 times a week from now on!

Twitter Makes Sense

If you are not using Twitter you don’t know what you are missing!  No, it’s not another dating site!  If you intend to make noise in 2009 online with a business of any kind, you had better get on-board with social networking and micro-blogging.  Why do you ask?  Here’s a good example.  Are you familiar with The Ellen Show hosted by Comedian Ellen DeGeneres? She had Sean “Diddy” Combs on her show on Monday, March 10th and he introduced her to Twitter.
