How Important Skill?
You might agree selling skills aren’t rare. Children have them as they prove when they ask you to do things, or buy them things. Yet only with the right attitude and mental blueprint for taking action can your salesperson raise your revenue. Isn‘t that what you want?

2 Part Review: “Stop Procastination Now” eBook and FruitfulTime Software


The co-founder, Gaetano Caruana, of FruitfulTime, publishers of a task/list manager software for Windows 2000, XP, and Vista, wrote to me and asked me to review his product.

Disclosure: I received a software license in return for my review and Gaetano assured me he wants my unbiased and impartial review only because anything less would insult my readers’ intelligence.

You’re smart, folks. So here it is.

Part 1 — Stop Procastination Now eBook

FruitfulTime comes in a .zip compressed download package bundled with a free Adobe .pdf eBook.

I found this book very valuable personally. Your mileage will vary.

It arrived at the right time for me, when I was at last begining to see personal results from my new commitment to self-management, often misnamed “time” management.

You may delay, but time will not.
— Benjamin Franklin

Want to Quickly Find that Great Website You Were Just At?…But Painfully You Realize You Didn’t Bookmark It and Add It to Your Favourites


UPDATED: February 26th, 2008 with a Great Endorsement

Common wisdom has it that Apple is prettier.

Not just the computer, the operating system with scrolling images to browse, that sort of thing.

I found a nice add-on to Mozilla Firefox. It can liven up a Windows user’s visual browsing experience. Or a Mac’s too since it’s fully compatible.

The meat is coming up in just a moment after the intro… ever lose that great website you were looking at before which had the answer to your problem? Or a better way of doing something? And of the six different ones your reviewed, this is the one you’re going with? And now you’re looking through your browser’s history log trying to find the right site mixed in with dozens of similar sounding names? Well stay tuned because a major NASDAQ traded software company may be introducing the answer…
