Great Quotes

I thought I would try something new – asking you to send me any great quotes you have. My father in law, Kurt Derrer, sent me this one which prompted this idea. He was going through some old papers and came across this one…

“ Man Who Says….. ‘It cannot be done’

should not interrupt  ‘ Woman who is doing it’”

There’s this one from Gavin Buckett, Australian Food Safety Specialist and Gourmet Guardian

I have a collection of my favorite quotes called Exponential Words Of Wisdom, that are business related. I am looking for comments posted to this post to create a stream of miscellaneous quotes – just for fun! In a previous post I started a list of truisms. Either one is a good place to submit your contribution!

Follow Your Destiny And Passion

A good friend of mine Dr Malcolm Simons whom I’ve blogged about on several occasions on my Mindset Of A Champion Blog and this Personal Mastery Blog, sent me these photos of his wife’s art work called Pillar of Life that is displayed at Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center. I just think it’s important that we all follow our dreams to fulfill our destinies – like Ann is doing with her art. I thought I would honor that with excerpts from her speech at the unveiling of her masterpiece

Movember 2009

Here is the proof that I am growing a MO for Movember! Please donate generously by clicking here – Donate To Marc Dussault – it helps men with Depression and Prostate Cancer Research… I thought it was an opportune place to take the picture – we are all seeking the secret to eternal youth. This was a sign part of the Sculpture By The Sea Exhibition that ends on November 15. Thank you for your kind and generous donation. Someone somewhere will be helped and they will have you to thank for it. I want to thank James Grima of Positive Training Solutions for getting me on his team. I’ve been ‘meaning to do this’ for several years. I’m doing it to help him out -he’s got personal reasons for doing this with people close to him affected by both depression and Prostate Cancer. By the way, all donations above $2 are tax deductible.

The first two we launched were Business and Internet Mastery followed by Professional Mastery and now my personal blog will transform into the Personal Mastery Blog – with a focus on making sure you maintain a work/career-life balance without compromising your results and rewards.

That way you know exactly where to go for inspiration, ideas and insights.

Only One Time Ever…

We all hear the saying one-time-only, especially in marketing… but there is a moment that will never, ever happen ever again… Sure there was the 08/08/08 for the start of the Beijing Olympics, how about when the clock strikes 12:34:56 on the 07/08/09… That’ll never happen again – ever. Just thought you’d want to know – it’s coming up soon…

Having Fun On The Radio

You may or may not know that I have been a guest on a local radio show hosted by David Haseldine, called “Money Talks” on Sydney’s 2RRR FM 88.5 on Wednesday mornings. Be that as it may, I took my video camera to the studio on my first day to capture the event for you. It’s a short 4 minute video of the beginning of the broadcast…

Of course while you’re watching it – you can RATE the VIDEO add comments and maybe even post a video response while you’re at it – why not? You’re there anyway…

This is called having fun doing out-of-the-ordinary things that create extra-ordinary results with the least amount of effort at the lowest cost. Yes, I know you know it’s called antimimeticisomorphism

But I also know the 1 Percent Improvement Doctrine of doing the little things that make a big difference… MOST people don’t do them.

Don’t be most people – be one of the few – post a comment on the video and tick off your 1% for today!
