In a popular comedy show, the improvisational (improv) performers are challenged with acting out a scene to the best of their ability, on the spot (i.e. “at the drop of a hat”). If you think about it, life can sometimes feel like a series of improv skits. Not just...

There’s no quick fix that I’ve found to create fast traction for a blog site. Most of the successful bloggers I know have been consistently blogging and promoting their blogs for years; we’ve never seen anyone achieve overnight success in blogging....

From time to time on these Friday posts, I like to share a collection of online articles from the last month that I think you might like. This time I decided to get a few of my Weaving Influence co-workers involved in sharing some of their favorite links. A big thanks...

Two years ago, I left my job to study in Israel where I still live today. Since moving, I have worked in a high-caliber sales position, served as a counselor for a summer program, and performed other odd jobs. I have enjoyed being active, doing different things,...

Whatever happened to the “lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer”? Crazy, yes, but lazy and hazy, not so much! With 19 book launches on the schedule this year (so far), we haven’t experienced our normal summer slow-down, and there’s always another...
