The World of Doctored No
22/12/2009
The World of Doctored No The absence of darkness does not guarantee, nor does it suggest, the presence of light. Light must be proactively present. In a similar way we must pursue a positive faith - a positive system of beliefs... and we must shun all negative religion, faiths or systems of belief. Why? Because following any system (religious or otherwise) of beliefs where the emphasis on the 'No' the 'Do Not' and the 'Give This Up' is doomed to fail miserably. I have m...[More]
Customer Delight
22/12/2009
As this is the first entry under this Blog heading, I wanted to explain what I am seeking to achieve: nothing less than absolute 'Customer Delight'.

A Life to the Full
22/12/2009
The Living Organisations® is dedicated to one key focus: to help individuals, families and organisations of all sizes pursue and live more of a 'life to the full'.

When I am at home, the flat overlooks Swanage Bay. Given that I wake up very early most mornings... and that the Sun rises in the direction Swanage Bay faces... I am often privey to the most amazing dawn vistas. One provoked the following poem... The Passage of the Planes The passage of the planes Have etched their stretch-marks across the dawning sky Cellulite-like, in places, en route to the pseudo Celluloid worlds of Disneyland and Hollywood. The scars are not angry red...[More]
The Count of Evil
15/12/2009
Who is the 'Count of Evil'? Good question - and the answer is his and her name: 'Dis Count'. Discounts are an interesting phenomenon, causing people to pay attention to the monetary 'cost' of a product or service rather than its intrinsic value. Gavin Kennedy, one of the most accessible and practical writers on Negotiating Skills, asserts that we should not give discounts to people who need our business. But this is not the evil count I want to share with you in this blog. There i...[More]
