Do you want to leave a legacy?
Most of us women fit somewhere between Oseola Mc Carthy and Oprah Winfrey… We’re not pulling down the millions, but we aren’t washing clothes for a living either! Yet Oseola Mc Carthy quit school at 12 and began taking in laundry for a living. She never earned more than $10 a bundle but seventy-five years…

Mints, nut bars, jub jub…did anybody say Diana?
I have been intrigued lately by the Diana ads featuring Nikki Crosby and Sprangalang. Although the ads are simple ads they are actually a great case for effective advertising. While advertising agencies in Trinidad and Tobago and worldwide submit ads and win prizes for “most creative” and “best art direction” – advertisers pay them money…

The importance of sometimes doing “nothing”
We often rush…from one thing to the next…ticking off as we go along, against an out of control “to-do” list, which often seems impossible to complete.

Blitz. Zip. Blitz – blitz….in quick succession. I was on the phone and observing that the lights were blinking on and off, and my radio was making a noise as if it wanted to be on but was not getting enough “juice”. And then there was silence -Thank God it was daylight. Electricity was no…

Survival is not enough…in fact it’s painful!
Only painful though when your’e not involved in the work that you should be doing! Most of us approach the world of work with the same paradigm:Go to school. Get a degree. Get a job. Perhaps take another job. Work hard. Rise up through the ranks. Become the “head honcho”. Make big bucks. Retire comfortably.…

Criticism and your success…
“Don’t be distracted by criticism. Remember the only taste of success some people have is when they take a bite out of you.” – Zig Ziglar When I read that quote it was as if the San Andreas fault shifted in my head. I think that this is the BEST quote on criticism that I’ve…
