  • You Research the Competition, but Not the Toll on Your Marriage

    by

    From For Better or For Work: When people start companies, they research the competition, market data, SBA loans, and the cost of office space. But they generally give little thought to how a business will affect their personal lives. The entrepreneur and his spouse assume they’re muddle through for the “year or two” it takes…

  • Justin Jackson says it’s better to wait

    by

    I liked this post from Justin. I keep a list of cool ideas in my Bullet Journal and only work on ones that have been vetted a few times. They’ve moved journals, and been looked at and after months of still itching about it.

  • Ben Brooks on getting started with an iPad

    by

    Ben has a good guide on using an iPad Pro as your only computer. I’ve been iPad first for a while now and have General;y been very happy. He talks about not using Dropbox or Google Drive with an iPad Pro and I can concur, mostly. The problem with iCloud is that if you have…

    Good points from Bojan about the rising costs of getting your message out on Facebook or other social platforms. Clearly I never left blogging and continue to see benefits from it in the form all but one of my paying clients learning about me initially through this site. So I guess that’s about 80 –…

  • Apple News+ doesn’t respect you

    by

    Matthew Cassinelli has a point about the copious notifications that Apple News+ oh so helpfully provides. I have all my notifications of so I don’t see that, but I do see ads to purchase Apple News+. I have already purchased this and I’m signed into that account.

  • What if Your Energy Were Finite

    by

    If you had a finite amount of energy to use up and when it was gone you died, what would you not bother with? Would you worry about things you can’t change? Would you drop those clients that are stressing you out? Would you be doing much of anything that you are doing now? Prompted…

  • The Sweet Setup on the BookArc

    by

    Yup it looks cool but this stood out to me: At this point, I’m not sure if I’m more productive using only one display while working at home, but I’m certainly not less productive. Josh uses multiple monitors at work and a single at home citing its so easy to “just check” stuff with all…

  • On the Benefits of Touch for Adults and Kids

    by

    I knew about the baby stuff, but not the benefits for adults. An initial small study, published in the journal Pediatrics in 1986, showed that just 10 days of “body stroking and passive movements of the limbs” for less than an hour led babies to grow 47 percent faster. They averaged fewer days in the…
