Grass is always greener on the other side...

This video is all about the different perceptions someone can have on the same subject/topic.

Did you notice ?

What was Josh Kopelman, the founder of Half.com, trying to achieve by plastering every stop sign between ebay CEO's house, and the ebay office with Half.com bumperstickers ?

Simply get attention from Meg Whitman, CEO of ebay, who later acquired half.com.

See the connection now ;-)

It is a smart and inexpensive way to promote your company...

Thanks to James Hong for this great story.

Let me tell you something...

One big lesson you can apply to your professional life :

"Never talk when you can nod, never write when you can talk, and never, ever, put anything in an email."

From Eliot Spitzer,
New York state attorney general

How do you get this one more thing ?

One way to think different, and to get this thing that makes the difference is to travel.
Travelling is all about :
- Giving fresh and new perspectives
- Expanding our horizons
- Strengthening our sense of adventure
- Challenging ourselves
- Learning new languages
- Getting an appreciation of our own courage and abilities
- Taking time to examine who we are and what we truly want out of life.
