Outsourcing: Why It’s Difficult At Times

"Positive health means becoming whole-heartedly engaged with our own health care. It means not outsourcing our health to the health care system. It means getting rid of the fear and paralysis we too often feel, and instead cultivating a sense of agency." - Jane McGonigal With the type of business you have right now, covering special events like weddings, birthdays, baptisms, and more, editing requires a lot of work. This is why we would resort to outsourcing this stuff to others...

What To Do When Everything Else Fails

"Failures, repeated failures, are finger posts on the road to achievement. One fails forward toward success." - C. S. Lewis Everyone fails at something. We all do, but this doesn't mean that you should stop trying to make things successful. We all have ups and downs. These are life's spices to determine whether we are worth the challenges and trials that we face in our daily lives. Failures aren't always mistakes. It only becomes a mistake when you stop trying. It is only...

Change Is Great: But There’s A Price You’ll Pay

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Friedrich Nietzsche More often than not, if we feel ungrateful with the things that we do, we want to change. This is great, but you also need to know that you will also need to pay the price. Among the...

How Brendon Burchard’s Concept Help Me

"Once you have an innovation culture, even those who are not scientists or engineers - poets, actors, journalists - they, as communities, embrace the meaning of what it is to be scientifically literate. They embrace the concept of an innovation culture. They vote in ways that promote it. They don't fight science and they don't fight technology." - Neil deGrasse Tyson More often than not, we are always afraid of trying out things that are new to us. But some lessons...

Momentum: Why You Keep Losing It

"Throughout human history, in any great endeavour requiring the common effort of many nations and men and women everywhere, we have learned - it is only through seriousness of purpose and persistence that we ultimately carry the day. We might liken it to riding a bicycle. You stay upright and move forward so long as you keep up the momentum." - Ban Ki-moon When you have a business, it is important that you are always alert and on the go. But...

Learning From Ryan Serhant Helps Me A Lot

"Life is all about evolution. What looks like a mistake to others has been a milestone in my life. Even if people have betrayed me, even if my heart was broken, even if people misunderstood or judged me, I have learned from these incidents. We are human and we make mistakes, but learning from them is what makes the difference." - Amisha Patel Starting up a business after others are now very successful might dwarf your perspectives. But learning from Ryan...

Books? I Don’t Read Them. Here’s Why

"Picture books are for everybody at any age, not books to be left behind as we grow older. The best ones leave a tantalising gap between the pictures and the words, a gap that is filled by the reader's imagination, adding so much to the excitement of reading a book." - Anthony Browne I know that there are so many people who love reading, but I am an exception. I don't read books, but I can explain to you why. In my...

Photographers: Quick Tips On How To Increase Your Price

"Photographers usually want to photograph facts and things. But I'm interested in the nature of the thing itself. A photograph of someone sleeping tells me nothing about their dream state; a photograph of a corpse tells me nothing about the nature of death. My work is about my life as an event, and I find myself to be very temporal, transient." - Duane Michals In photography, especially in this digital world, competition is high. But you can be a perfect client...

Consistently Publish Content Without A Team

"Ultimately, leadership is not about glorious crowning acts. It's about keeping your team focused on a goal and motivated to do their best to achieve it, especially when the stakes are high and the consequences really matter. It is about laying the groundwork for others' success, and then standing back and letting them shine." - Chris Hadfield If your business is a one-manned man, you may think that it would be hard to be consistent in publishing content. But the truth is,...
