WiiFM in action!
Call me Captain Obvious, but humans are motivated by self-interest. Our favourite radio station is WiiFM (What's in it For Me?) This isn't anything groundbreaking or surprising ... Human nature has been this way since we were cavemen stalking through the grass looking...
A common dilemma for coaches
Here's a question that I received from a coach recently: ===== “For Facebook should I launch a personal brand page or have it under my company name? I coach, consult, speak and facilitate. Thoughts? I am so stuck!” ===== She's wondering how she should name her...
An ongoing debate about content
There's a debate going around the online world about content. Some say that it's better to release content less frequently, but to make your stuff amazing. So for example, they recommend that you release a killer blog post, or video, once every week or two instead of...
Boxing day and a boxing legend
It's Boxing Day, so let's talk about Muhammad Ali. What better day to talk about a boxer? If Muhammad Ali was alive and an entrepreneur in 2018, I suspect he would do very well. First, he would have no trouble gaining attention in the crowded marketplace. He would...
Warning: don’t let your kids read this
Once you hit a certain age, the whole Santa thing doesn't make a lot of sense. How can a small team of elves in the North Pole make enough toys for the whole world? How can one man make it around the globe in just one night to deliver presents? (regardless of how many...

Here’s something that will help you bring home the bagels
Some people love to be offended. They get their kicks from it, and are disappointed when they aren't outraged at something. They waste their precious time and energy on some pretty crazy stuff. For example: PETA is now campaigning against "Speciesism", which is...
If you like Hulk Hogan more than John Cena, this could be for you
I'm an old-fashioned guy. If given the choice, I'd rather listen to oldies music than the stuff that all the crazy kids are listening to nowadays. Give me Elvis, Buddy Holly or The Beach Boys over Lil'-whatever. Another example: I'm old-school when it comes to...
When it’s time for a rebuild
I'm going to geek out on baseball stuff here, but hear me out (there's a lesson for coaches). Last week, the Toronto Blue Jays cut high-paid, former All-Star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki loose from the team. Although he was one of the best players in baseball before he...
What, no replay?!?
There won't be a replay sent out for those who miss today's live training with Sean Kemp. (At least not a free one, Sean has said he might offer it for sale down the road). The "no replay" stance ruffled a few feathers this week, as people asked me "What, no...
