Snippets
This page contains the resources that I have found useful in my personal and professional life. Admittedly, it is an eclectic list. It contains everything from quotes and books that I like to podcasts, videos, and slideshows.
If you don’t want to scroll through the entire list, you can click on one of the links below and filter the resources by specific category.
I will update this list as I discover new resources. If you have a resource you think I should add, please email me.
Help Me Pick a New Title
Can you help us decide on the subtitle and copyline for my next book?
I am writing a new book on the subject of building a platform. It is designed for authors, speakers, recording artists and anyone else who wants to get noticed in an increasingly noisy world. Thomas Nelson is my publisher and will release the book in April 2012.
We have created a survey with exactly one question: “Which subtitle and copyline would make you more likely to purchase my book?” To see the options and vote, click here.
Thanks for your help!
I’m Taking Labor Day Off
I am taking Labor Day off. It is a holiday here in the U.S.
According to Wikipedia, Labor Day celebrates the economic and social contribution of workers. The first Labor Day was observed on September 5, 1882. It ultimately became a federal holiday in 1894.
Labor Day is celebrated by most Americans as the symbolic end of the summer. In fact, when I was a boy, school didn’t start until after the holiday. Those were the days!
Enjoy the time with your family and friends.
It’s My Pleasure
Do you ever notice that how often people say, “No problem” when you thank them? That’s fine, I guess. However, I am going to take a lesson from Chick-fil-A and start responding, “It’s my pleasure.” I think that creates a completely different—and unexpected—experience.
