cut to the chase II

I haven't blogged about sales for some time ::.... what do U think? Am I getting rusty or do U like the conscious decision to make sales about the organization not the rep for a quirky twist on my take that it is the sales organization's responsibility to provide the proper environment for sales people to flourish, grow and be rewarded for their many late late hours sweating blood and tears towards the finish line, except intercepted by "the organization" or company in the very last minute.

I think I'm onto something ~ DO U? All this time we've wasted page after page of the wrong subject to solve an age old problem of whether the chicken came before the egg mystery.

Well, from the likes of my blog this afternoon, I would say that I have indeed solved it. Finally. Case closed. READ MORE:

I recommend you read "Cut to the Chase" because I think it is one of the best blogs I've written in a while.  HERE 

This CUT to the CHASE II blog was a small blip on my social media scene but I got the timing all mixed up, trying out something new and jumping on to that before I had tested another Blog Post.  

The Chicken & Egg became a series or experiment if you will.  I was trying some new creative thinking.  A service per se of setting up social media scavenger hunts for brands.  This article is date stamped and saved as proof of idea for any copyright or trademark infringements.  Suffice to say The Chicken & Egg certainly was an extension of Cut to the Chase original.  Ironically, the clicks on II was brisk and I hope I didn't lose readers or followers because of my error posting the first one (oops).  I was panic'd at first, rightly so, breath sucking in and heart stopping, thinking I'd lost what I had spent a few hours coming up with:  and feeling really REALLY satisfied at the accomplishment.  

Not surprising, I'm discovering that writing about sales is something that I've probably attracted a few of my first supporters and advocates.  (Thank you by the way .... I usually write something dedicated to giving thanks to others who help me along the way).

A lot of times I will cut and paste what I've written on Blogspot disappears when I CLICK PUBLISH or UPDATE.

It is a really good idea to have backup of your content when you are doing LIVE posting because as any technologist, engineer, development, experts know:  with technology, it isn't that something will never go wrong, because part of the nature of the beast is having something shut down, not update, or any number of annoyances that have your CALL VOLUME and EMAIL or CHAT support skyrocket.  

Just ask any media outlet.  It is without a doubt that they would have horror stories to tell, saved usually for the after hours wine or beer energized conversation.

I've divided myself up into a number of personalities that I've shared at one place or another.  I have gravitated towards silos of interests that I can really relate to or feel that value could be gained from readers.  Not because I necessarily have the solution, but sometimes a conversation gets started and that is a lot more important.

I'll get my kicks if I start to see #bestofeverything start to trend somewhere and then it becomes a viral hashtag that can be used anywhere:  whether Twitter or You Tube or Google Plus.  Facebook lags in this area ... lacking in Hashtag clout.

Sometimes people just want information, or are surfing to read.  Challenging what is out there to jump into their conscious sphere, reading it and discovering a renewed passion or a solution to a big problem.  

You'll have to go over to The Publisher to see what I mean.  

The Publisher

The goal is to be an outlet for writers that is anonymous.    There is no fee for me to do this.  It will be a labour of love to begin with.  Then who knows what may evolve.

So, I apologize to my regulars if they witnessed someone who appeared to be scattered.  Not scattered per se.  Everyone has multiple facets to their views, has several interests, maybe one passion.  I guess mine has been uncorked.  I love communicating.  That means talking (which I've been decried long-winded many times), I did hone in public speaking with Toastmasters International for about 10 years ..... being able to communicate certainly speeds up results in sales.  I think that is one key ingredient that the super stars have.  They are strong communicators.  

from ground zero

By Anonymous
By September 2001 I was in a daze.  I had just removed myself as an identity synonymous with wife or mother.  When you're in doubting mode, the world slows down.  Too wrapped up in memeME for a change.

Mount Everest
Solitude was forced on me, not willingly sought.  Caught in any 30 somethings years old.  If you've ever read or watched anything on the topic of Mount Everest you'd know that it is very formidable and cloaked in disaster and death.  Yet any story ever told that we would unanimously agree, from all nations, from all religions, on this fact then and now we would agree that the most bravest of accomplishment from climbing and surviving crown the peak of Mount Everest and sinking a flag at its peak. 

Yet in each and every story there has always been one common denominator ::.... Can you guess what it is?  I'm being charitable by making a clue front and centre: 

Teamwork
Yeah, I know eh?  Odd, weird, even interesting.  In order for any singular one of us need others to survive.  We are not a species meant to do anything but work as part of a major team.

Watching halfway between writing and @CNN 9/11 15 years later.  We're you even aware?  At what point did you become aware is uncanny when you think about it.

Live coverage 
Forged a brave new world.  It gave new meaning to live and unedited.  I think I was presently OFF on 9/11.  It defined solitude in an extremely captivating way.

United cause
Of those who want peace over violence outnumbered by a few percentage.

We watched it live, each to their own bittersweet or horrible spectacle 9/11 became.  A flash forward by 40 years when one of the greatest Presidents the United States have ever known ::.... John F. Kennedy.  Assassinated by his own people to 40 years later it being an attack of the people.

Majority rule
Would lean in favorite of I being horrific demonic act of the violation of peace.  Because there is no world order that is policed more by the people instead of uniform.  They'd agree, no excuses or explanation nor narrative allowed.

The act of 9/11 was an act of violence against unsuspecting innocent people.  They weren't leaders, rule makers, of one particular race but separated by religion.  The VERY thing that should empower the believers of anything, not one thing.  Not divisible by anything other than right and wrong.

Anyone who is dedicated to their religion would not be told to kill or maim others is never permissible  under any laws.

One day with incredible loss have united a nation once again.  No other country in the world has had so many kicks at them (Pearl Habour, 9/11, New Orleans).

I admit that I've never really studied their civil war to gain freedom and democracy.  Perhaps sharing enough their air from osmosis dusting me with understanding a little itsy tiny bit by following the news at home and abroad.

Contrary to misperceptions, Canadians consider abroad the same for the U.S.  as anywhere else, Paris, Syria, Greece, India or you name it.

Blessings to all
I write about this to bow to the days leading up to then afterwards the tragic destruction in the form of two towers, symbolizing a very real threat to our safety and security.

If everyone could agree between right and wrong, what an amazing and remarkable place the world would be.

On the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 tragedy, remember and reflect with these powerful quotes.

“Even the smallest act of service, the simplest act of kindness, is a way to honor those we lost, a way to reclaim that spirit of unity that followed 9/11.”
—President Obama in a 2011 radio address

“If we learn nothing else from this tragedy, we learn that life is short and there is no time for hate.”
—Sandy Dahl, wife of Flight 93 pilot Jason Dahl, in Shanksville, Pa., in 2002

“My older brother John lived [his life] in Technicolor. … When he walked in the door, the whole house lit up. And I’m sure heaven lit up when he got there too.”
—Anthoula Katsimatides at the World Trade Center site in 2005

“Five years from the date of the attack that changed our world, we’ve come back to remember the valor of those we lost—those who innocently went to work that day and the brave souls who went in after them. We have also come to be ever mindful of the courage of those who grieve for them, and the light that still lives in their hearts.”
—New York City mayor ­Rudolph Giuliani at the World Trade Center site in 2006

“One of the worst days in America’s history saw some of the bravest acts in Americans’ history. We’ll always honor the heroes of 9/11. And here at this hallowed place, we pledge that we will never forget their sacrifice.”
—President George W. Bush at the Pentagon in 2008

“My father, Norberto, was a pastry chef at ­Windows on the World in Tower One. For 10 years, he made many fancy and famous ­desserts, but the sweetest dessert he made was the marble cake he made for us at home. … Whenever we parted, Poppi would say, ‘Te amo. Vaya con Dios.’ And this morning, I want to say the same thing to you, Poppi. I love you. Go with God.”
—Catherine Hernandez at the World Trade Center site in 2008

Expression expressiveness

Honesty always aligns with humility.


Can you relate to  laying down in darkness and

thoughts leaping out and taking over slumber. 

Are you catapulted to a reaction or a leap of 

faith?  

Are you catapulted to a reaction that takes you 

to an acknowledgment of thought?



Do you tumble towards a consciousness that invades

any   promise of sleep. 



Sigh. To be so void of feeling or consciousness,


 to fall into obliviousness, unconscious relief from the

 day's troubles, trials or triumphs. 

To just succumb to peacefulness, drift off to 

sleep. 

What a relief. 

We all want to be human. 

To exude restlessness. 

To express ourselves. 

Be at peace. 

Be normal. 

Be one to whom others can relate.



That is very cool.
