Strategic Intuition

CEO Blog

There is a great article in the Wall Street Journal on energy/creativity cycles and what time of day is best to do things. This is one of the things I suggest in time management. I even have a column on my time tracker sheets to log energy level. Anyways - good article - worth reading. ++ One of my investments is in Telehop - a reduced rate long distance carrier.

Imgur Infographics

CEO Blog

I follow trends and one trend I see the the trend towards infographics. Check out this infographic from Imgur on Twitter Tips for Time Management. It includes things like: 1 - best time to tweet to get retweeted is 5 o'clock. 2 - tips like "prior to opening up Twitter, decide how much time you are going to spend on it" (this is a good tip for any "idle" task like Honestlynow , LoadnVote , TV, video games etc.) 3 - Twitter is adding 500,000 users per day.

Do the Most Important Thing First Thing

CEO Blog

I heard once and practiced for years "do the worst thing first thing". I credited that habit to my success. I even created 2 and sometimes 3 first things - first thing in the morning and first thing after lunch. That habit started because often the worst thing required me to speak to someone and I often started my day before people were available. I would have rules like I would only spend 15 minutes doing it.

The Twelve Absolutes of Leadership

CEO Blog

Well the parsley is doing awesome. Italian parsley (the closest one) grows like a weed. I am eating a cup or more per day. Raw - just nibbling on it. What I learned about parsley: 1 - Chewing it raw is a natural way to treat gum disease. 2 - Parsley naturally eliminates bad breath. 3 - A cup of Parsley contains 21% of the daily iron needed and 100% of the vitamin C (if you believe RDA suggestions are right) 4 - I need to eat 100 cups per day just to get enough calories to maintain my weight.

Rippling

CEO Blog

I tend to get much of my inspiration through reading. It is fast, always available and easy. I sometimes find a book resonates well with me but when I go back later, I wonder why I thought it was so good. And sometimes I think is abook is bad but when I re-read it a year later, I love it. I think different books speak to us based on the stage and current challenges we face.
