Stuff To Read While You’re Pretending To Work: 9/30/16

I have a few editors who are, to their credit, patiently waiting for me to submit some articles. It’s 7:30 AM as I type this and I already cracked open a Spike. Time to get to work. But first this week’s list to stuff to read….   As a quick reminder: Dean Somerset and I… Read more

Unexpected Entrepreneurial Shenanigans

“Unexpected entrepreneurial shenanigans.” Those were the three words I wrote in the blank space describing my reason for having to cancel a Skype call with a marketing group recently.   I happily picked a time to reschedule and no more than an hour later received an email from one of the gentlemen I was supposed… Read more

Look Like Jason Bourne

Today’s guest post comes courtesy of business/life/fitness writer and world-traveler extraordinaire, Anthony Yeung. The title says it all folks.   Jason Bourne is the badass to end all badasses.

How to Write Content That Will Get Read

More specifically, they asked if I could come in and offer tips and insights on how they could go about writing more engaging content for their members and general… Read more

Stop Cranking on Your Shoulders for More Mobility

Seriously, stop it. For many people the first choice when their shoulder begins to hurt or if they lack mobility is to start cranking and yanking on it. This is rarely the right approach, and as Andrew Millett (my good friend and Boston based physical therapist) points out in today’s post…there a far better and… Read more
