    No leader rides alone

    March 31st, 2011 | Inspiration, Leadership | pwwoods | No Comments

    Courtesy of John Maxwell In recent years, people in the business world have rediscovered the significance of teams. In the 1980s, the buzzword in business circles was management. Then in the 1990s, the emphasis was on leadership. Now in the twenty-first century, the emphasis is on teams. Why? Because nobody does everything well. Not everyone [...]

    Don’t manage your time; manage your life!

    November 30th, 2010 | Business, Inspiration, Leadership | pwwoods | No Comments

    Here’s an important announcement: There is no such thing as time management. Think about it; the term is an oxymoron. Time cannot be managed. It cannot be controlled in any way. Everyone gets the same number of hours and minutes every day. Nobody—no matter how shrewd—can save minutes from one day to spend on another. [...]

    It’s not a recession, it’s a REVOLUTION!

    I just caught this video on Twitter (thanks @anexemines and @tacanderson). I think that there are a ton of great points to be made in this video regardless of what industry we are in, be it technology, real estate, etc. The bottom line is that no one is going to save us and there is [...]
