LEAP!: Ditch Your Job, Start Your Own Business & Set Yourself Free - A Review

0 comments
LEAP!: Ditch Your Job, Start Your Own Business & Set Yourself FreeShort, succinct and to the point. With heaps of useful tips. However, I think this guide is for those who are considering setting up their own consultancy outfits. Not entirely useful for those in other types of home based business like network marketing or internet marketing, although some of the tips may apply. What I liked about the book was that it never tried to go into those mumbo-jumbo "find yourself","discover your inner mojo","get in touch with your inner self" rubbish so prevalent and long-winded in self-help books for entrepreneurs. Ian Sanders made his points clear and practical. I like this.

Why Network Marketing is not for me.

0 comments
My very first post talked about (among other things) of my intention to get into network marketing.

Here’s an update on that. Tough work, folks. Not for the faint-hearted. I’ve also invested quite a bit of moolah to acquire some knowledge on how best to operate this business.

Everyone Connected. So, what now?

I admit it. I had a certain degree of envy towards the folks who came up with TM Everyone Connects campaign. It was big, loud and generated a lot of buzz. All culminating with that huge sing-along session at Bukit Bintang.

Mullahs, Merchants, and Militants: The Economic Collapse of the Arab World - A Review

0 comments

Mullahs, Merchants, and Militants: The Economic Collapse of the Arab WorldIn most history of military conquests and reigns of despots and corrupt government, the underlying reasons has always included economics. The kind where the country's riches are controlled by the very few and the many suffer.
Such as typified by the many Middle Eastern countries.
It's really not a huge surprise to see many turn to the likes of Hezbollah, Muslim Brotherhood and for those with more extreme tastes, Al-Qaeda as they seem to be the ones bearing beacons of hope.
If one is hungry, one will become very desperate.
