Managers have moral obligation to preserve capitalism

Repost from Working Knowledge of HBS | July 29, 2013

The common thinking about laissez faire, and free market that capitalism is just a step removed from the jungle.  But the truth is that there are strong moral framework for capitalism as contained in the writing of Milton Friedman, Adam Smith.  Thus argue HBS  Rebecca M. Henderson and Karthik Ramana.   Certain normative goals are in a capitalist society as fairness of opportunity and protection of individual rights

Our task is to add texture, add richness to the moral structure that exists in the capitalist society.  We are not making immoral men moral in a capitalist society.  It is a big mistake that business people as amoral or immoral.  A business can not continue its existence if it is not good;  especially in a Judeo Christiab setting.

The best and worst in Henry Ford

Repost from Leadershipnow | July 30, 2013

What are the best and worst in Henry Ford?

He would have been 150 years old;  he was born 3 weeks after the battle of Gettysburg.  It sad to note that the city that grew from the business he founded, Detroit, went belly up.

His positive trait:  he was tenacious and stubborn and this accounted for his early success.  He was talented. He believed in his own talent.

However, his belief in himself was delusional;  he lost objective sense of self.  He attracted great talent but also drove them away.  He was insensintive.

He believe in lifelong learning;  life is a never ending education;  anyone who stops learning is old

Crafting irrestible emails (compelling and unique)

Repost from HBR Blogs by Katie Smith Milway | July 25, 2013

Would you write an email that does not get read or zero response.

It is humiliating and a waste of of effort.  Better learn how to write emails that get response, action and sales.

Thats it:    ask for response/action/commitment

l.  Clarify the what;

2.  Visually highlight the message:  bold or highlight

3.  Be simple and direct to the point;  be jargon free

4.  Send email when it is working hour and decision makers can read the email..

5.  Have a superior co sign the email

6.  Request for action:  contact me;  see you there, order now etc.




Catalytic questioning for more innovative ideas

Repost from Inc by Wil Yawkowicz and staff | July 23, 2013

Is your company running out of innovative ideas;   has it run of fuel for new products/processes/services?

Maybe its because there are not enough questions being asked.  This idea comes from the book by Hal Gregersen, a professor on innovation at INSEAD and co author of The Innovator's DNA, asking questions is the best tool for solving problems, having new ideas, and gaining a new perspective.
The process is called Catalytic Questioning 

What is the process:

1.  Practice asking questions in a rapid fire fashion.  Sometimes, the question will not have a ready and easy answer.

2. Engage the heart and mind (this is the difficult part)

3.  Question everything.  Come up with 50 to 75 questions in say 30 minutes. Ask a question that is always better than before.

4.  Catalytic question -  leave 3 to 4 questions THAT WILL BE DISRUPTIVE,  ie that will alter the status quo

5.  Now come with answer.  Network;  gather new inputs, consult other groups gain new perspective


What are some of the habits that you can eliminate to be a better leader?

Repost from Smartblog | by Young Entrepreneur Council | July 24, 2013

Some habits can really hold you back from a becoming a leader.

What are some of them?

l.  Use of cellphone.  It can be distraction.   Once you eliminate texting, or games, you can do more productive things.

2.  Micromanaging;

3.  Being a perfectionist;

4,  Crowdsourcing a decision (consulting everyone;  one employee who was ordered to be on duty on a Sunday because of marketing work said she needs to be consulted?)

5.  Being shy;

6.  Doing smaller task

7.  Watching tv; read more >>>

Creating a Blueprint for your life

Subject: Creating a Blueprint for your life
Brian Tracy's
Success Newsletter
For Personal Achievement and Time Management
Dear Jorge,
Do you know the common characteristic of top salespeople? They have taken the time to sit down and create a clear blueprint for themselves and their future lives. Even if they started the process of goal setting and personal strategic planning with a little skepticism, every one of them has become a true believer.
Becoming a True Believer
Every one of them has been amazed at the incredible power of goal setting and strategic planning. Every one of them has accomplished far more than they ever believed possible in selling and they ascribe their success to the deliberate process of thinking through every aspect of their work and their lives, and then developing a detailed, written road map to get them to where they wanted to go.
The Definition of Happiness
Happiness has been defined as, "The progressive achievement of a worthy ideal, or goal." When you are working progressively, step-by-step toward something that is important to you, you generate within yourself a continuous feeling of success and achievement.
You feel more positive and motivated. You feel more in control of your own life. You feel happier and more fulfilled. You feel like a winner, and you soon develop the psychological momentum that enables you to overcome obstacles and plough through adversity as you move toward achieving the goals that are most important to you.
Determine Your Values
Personal strategic planning begins with your determining what it is you believe in and stand for-your values. Your values lie at the very core of everything you are as a human being. Your values are the unifying principles and core beliefs of your personality and your character. The virtues and qualities that you stand for are what constitute the person you have become from the beginning of your life to this moment.
Your values, virtues and inner beliefs are the axle around which the wheel of your life turns. All improvement in your life begins with you clarifying your true values and then committing yourself to live consistent with them.
Action Strategies for Personal Achievement
"Attention Personal Success Seekers: Introducing Action Strategies for Personal Achievement!
Are you ready to fear nothing, achieve greatness, and live financially free?

I've created a comprehensive, A-Z instruction manual for achieving greater success! In short, you will learn everything you need to know to excel in your business and personal life. Learn more here>>
Fuzzy or Clear?
Successful people are successful because they are very clear about their values. Unsuccessful people are fuzzy or unsure. Complete failures have no real values at all.
Build Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem
Values clarification is the beginning exercise in building self-confidence, self-esteem and personal character. When you take the time to think through your fundamental values, and then commit yourself to living your life consistent with them, you feel a surge of mental strength and well-being. You feel stronger and more capable. You feel more centered in the universe and more competent of accomplishing the goals you set for yourself.
Action Exercises
Here are two things you can do immediately to put these ideas into action.
First, decide for yourself what makes you truly happy and then organize your life around it. Write down your goals and make plans to achieve them.
Second, begin with your values by deciding what it is you stand for and believe in. Commit yourself to live consistent with your inner most convictions - and you'll never make another mistake.

To "be the best, do your best, expect the best" always

Do NOT stop doing this ONE thing



---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Josh & Joel - BioTrust Nutrition <support@biotrustnews.com>
Date: Sun, Jun 2, 2013 at 2:35 PM
Subject: Do NOT stop doing this ONE thing


Every day brings challenges. Every week has its ups and downs. Every life is filled with dips and dark days - even mine. We will all go through tough times when it feels like nothing is working or going our way.
But when this happens there is ONE thing you must NOT stop doing.
Let me explain with a story from my childhood that I will never forget...
There I was the little town of Waterloo, Iowa at the ripe age of 15, sitting on the gymnasium floor one summer while attending a wrestling camp. On this particular day the camp host shared a story of tragedy, commitment, perseverance, inspiration, success, disappointment, redemption, and ultimately, heartbreaking courage.
The storyteller was the most intense and passionate speaker I had ever watched, even to this day nearly 25 years later. It was no surprise that he was also an Olympic Gold-medal winner with a world-famous work ethic and dedication to success. Today, he remains an almost unparalleled legend in the sports world.
That speaker and the camp's host was Dan Gable, and that day he taught us an incredibly valuable lesson.
Gable grew up in that very town with an obsession for wrestling. He started making a name for himself in high school, and was living a relatively normal life of a small-town American boy.
That was until tragedy tore apart his family.
While Gable and his parents were out of town on vacation, his older sister, who stayed home alone, was murdered by a boy from school.
Dan Gable was devastated by these events and blamed himself for what had happened. The tragedy has haunted Gable for his entire life, and at that young age he turned his rage inward. He became obsessed with training and for redeeming his sister's life through his performance on the wrestling mat.
His training habits became legendary. He was the first one to practice and the last one to leave. Every workout was undertaken with his mantra of "Push to Collapse."
Each and every session was dedicated to the goal of working so hard that he would have to be physically carried off the wrestling mat at the finish. One by one he exhausted all of his training partners on his high school and eventually college teams.
No one could keep up with him, but no matter how hard he was never able to truly break himself in training. However, this commitment led to a high school championship and an undefeated record in college that spanned several years.
That was until the unthinkable happened.
Wrestling in his final match at the NCAA level, just before Gable was expected to go on and win the Gold medal at the 1972 Olympics, Dan Gable's unbeaten record came to an end in a shocking upset in his final college match.
The sports world was stunned. In tears, Gable left the mat in utter disappointment, feeling that he had let down the memory of his sister.
But he soon returned to training his Push to Collapse approach. He kept on pushing, no matter what.

Eventually he would have his redemption. Gable went on to win the Gold at the '72 Olympics by dominating his competition, no doubt in large part due to his training philosophy and dedication to working harder than anyone else in the world.


His attitude of pushing through the dark days surrounding both his sister's death and his devastating loss in the final match of his college career was what allowed him to become the best in the world at what he did.
His "never, ever give up" attitude is what allowed Gable to become a legend.
What drive and determination. Dan Gable was truly a man that was determined to make the most of the gifts he had been given.

Do you hold the same attitude?

Are you willing to keep on pushing?


Are you determined, no matter how bad it gets, to keep on taking action?
Are you committed to never, ever, EVER giving up on what is important to you?

Listen, everyone suffers through setbacks.


We all have dark days and dips in the road.


But there remains one undeniable truth.
No matter how bad things might feel, no matter how tough your current situation, the truth is that someone, somewhere, in worse circumstances than yours right now, was able to rise up and overcome those obstacles to go on and succeed at achieving their dreams...
...because they kept on pushing.
This is a phrase that has popped up time and time again in my life lately. I say it in countless replies to emails from BioTrust readers and customers as they detail their struggles and hopes in reply to this very newsletter.
It's a phrase that I've made it a point to encourage others with as they push to become their best, day in and day out.
I said it to myself over and over and over again while cooking my own meals, fighting through my own workouts, and spending countless hours to extend the reach of the BioTrust brand across the world so we can help as many people as possible, together.
And when someone achieves success, my comment to them is always, "Congratulations, now Keep on Pushing!"

When someone is struggling, "Stay Strong. Keep on Pushing" are my words of advice.


It doesn't matter where you are in life, in business, or in your relationships, if you're going after something that matters, you just have to Keep on Pushing.


Just Act.


Just Ask for Help.


Just Stop Procrastinating.

Just Never Give Up.

Just Keep on Going.


And when you stumble or get stuck, just Keep on Pushing.


Learn your lesson, readjust your course, and Push again.


Use your leverage.


And Push.


Strain and struggle.


Dig Deep.


And Push.


Back to Dan Gable...
As he wrapped up his speech, he recounted a story with tears in his eyes and a crack in his voice.
Recently, while on the road giving one of his many speeches, his daughter participated in an 800-meter race against the state champion. Gable's wife delivered the play-by-play commentary via cell phone.
It turned out to be a remarkable day for his daughter. She started strong, not only keeping pace with the highly-favored state champion, but eventually taking the lead down the home stretch.
Two hundred meters to go, then one hundred. Their daughter was still in the lead. She was on the verge of a massive upset victory.
Suddenly, the line went silent.
At first he thought he had lost the connection. Then moments later, in shock, his wife began to speak again.
Gable's daughter had literally pushed to collapse.
Within meters of the finish line she had given everything that she could and her legs had simply given out. She fell down within site of the finish, physically unable to go any further.
As Gable explained with great pride in his heart and tears in his eyes, "My daughter did what I could never do. She pushed to collapse."

She might have lost the race, but she won something much more important that day. 
And so here's what that means to us...
That no matter how dark the day, no matter how deep the dip in your life, when all else fails all you can do is keep on pushing.
It's the ONE thing must do no matter what life throws at you.
Keep on Pushing.
I'll be right here, along with the BioTrust team and our incredible board of advisers, to give you the support you need.
Stay strong and get stronger,

Your friend,

Coach Josh

Both new or experienced authors get to publish and promote their message while reaching a huge, global audience - YOU!
President of Paradise Publishers, Martin Wales, shares, "Studies show over 75% of people desire to write a  book. Many of us have stories or knowledge that need to be shared.

10 tips from Inc - how to improve your leadership

Repost from Inc. by Steve Tobak | July 25, 2013

The success of a leader is never absolute or does not exist in a vacuum;  it is always relative to the competition.  Thus the competition is always a driver to executive leadership (having number 1 and number 2 competing vs one another develops strong business leaders especially in FCMG)

What must leaders learn to do?

1.  Promote the winners and fire the losers (reward the doers)

2.  Learn from experience (the best teacher)

3.  Engage the key stakeholders

4.  Priortize and delegate

5.  Decide smartly - avoid yes men,  do not over react, act on chizmiz, or do knee jerk decisions

6.  Always do the numbers and rely on them;

7.   Never ever give up

8.  Negotiate effectively

9.  Troubleshoot problems

10  It is odd there are only 9?

Tips for improving your memory

Repost from Inc.by Kevin Daum | July 28, 2013

What differentiates man from animals is his ability to think.  Our brain and our thinking makes us superior to all other creation.

The real capital for man is not money is his head (his brains).  Capital comes from Latin word capito which means head.  Real capital of man comes from his brain and his ability to use this

Our ability to use our brain is reflected in our memory.  As of now we use only 3% of our brain capacity.  We use to run at 30% when we were still young.

Some of the tips:

1.  Establish routines/habits so that you can not miss/lose things;

2.  Sometimes you have to break routine;

3.  Eat more brain food;

4.  Get more sleep

5.  Have mental work up (like puzzles etc)
