Breaking Out Of Your Bubble

Aug 13th, 2008 | By Bart Beattie | Category: Around The Web

Recently, I watched a lecture given by Matt Harding - the “Where the hell is Matt?” guy who does a silly dance in dozens of countries - and he spoke about expanding your bubble by traveling internationally. I love the idea of traveling the globe, expanding your bubble, having epiphanies about the brotherhood of mankind [...]



Less is More

Jul 23rd, 2008 | By Bart Beattie | Category: Around The Web

Unfortunately, the mantra, “Bigger, better, more” has pervaded our modern culture. More options, increased complexity, larger products. We’ve even constructed elaborate systems to organize it all. Thankfully, we have champions of logic, such as Nick Pagan, who help cut to the core of what is important. He recently wrote two articles dispensing pragmatic [...]



Simple Success

Jul 8th, 2008 | By Bart Beattie | Category: Around The Web

Two recent articles over at SuccessSoul highlight teachings of a pair of famous successful people - Bruce Lee and Albert Einstein. While drastically different men, both articles seem to weave an underlying thread that success is created by the simple things; focus, dedication, giving value to others.
In the first article, “Albert Einstein’s 7 lessons [...]

Recently there was an article on lifehack.org that urged readers to “Get Out More.” http://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/get-out-more-6-ways-to-be-more-social.html I can’t stress too much how important this is.

Persistance Is What It Takes

Jon Leger just put up an article on his blog talking about how persistence is at least as big a part of success as talent. It’s called “What it takes to succeed in business.” Check it out.
I think another useful point to bring up is that you need to not just focus on one field [...]



Learning A New Skill

Jan 2nd, 2008 | By Bryce Beattie | Category: Around The Web

Learning to learn is a subject that doesn’t get enough emphasis from success writers. I’ll admit, I read and listen to a lot of material that could be useful in my life, but very little of it actually sticks.
There are many reasons to learn new skills.
David Moldawer over at lifeclever.com suggested that everybody Learn a [...]



Teaching Through Story

Dec 11th, 2007 | By Bryce Beattie | Category: Around The Web

Two of my favorite classic success books are The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino and The Richest Man in Babylon by George Clason. Putting teachings into a story seems to give it more weight.
Internet Business maven James Brausch is doing his best to be a modern Og Mandino. On his blog, he’s [...]

First off, here’s some of Napoleon Hill’s tips from Think And Grow Rich
