March 2015

The month of March for many symbolizes the beginning of a new season and the possibilities that go with it. In this issue we explore possibility — how to create it and make sure it’s realized as desired.

That’s
outrageous!

Before you go into sticker shock on the cost of a product or service, consider what you’re getting in return, and how important it is to you or your success. It’s okay to say “no thanks, cheaper is better,” just think about it first. Because you always get what you pay for.

the right answer,
say it... politely

Social influence (peer pressure) can stop you from stating your opinions or concerns, and can as a result, maintain the status quo and halt positive change. Try this instead.

hilarious!
