Got this from Tammy Camp's blog. Simply awesome. I love when I find out about things that were sitting there right in front of my eyes.
Oscar Nominations – are these really the best movies?
So the Oscar nominations came out. I don't know if this is news, cause I don't care super much. But I noticed something as I was looking at list.
Don’t Wait Around – you’ll lose opportunities or How I Almost Lost $1,000
Putting things off is never the way to go. If it should be done, it should be done now.

LivingSocial and Amazon – what’s the results?
If you have been on the internetz at all today you have seen some mention of the $10 for a $20 gift card at Amazon.
UPDATE – I have found that Amazon was not involved in this deal at all. That means that it was a pure customer acquisition play by LivingSocial. So they paid $10 dollars for each email address and credit card info. Slightly troubling is that fact that it was relatively easy to hack the site buying more than one for yourself. So hopefully this pays off for LivingSocial. Otherwise that is 20 million dollars of pain.

Jimmer for King
I was at Utah when Jimmer went off for 47 points. It is a pleasure to watch this player. He gets my vote for POY.
Making Decisions – or rather make more decisions
Churchill made decisions.
We often admire leaders because they make hard decisions. They see a course, and set the path, even when that is unpopular or hard.
Make a decision
It doesn't have to be a wise decision or a perfect one. Just make one.
In fact, make several. Make more decisions could be your three word mantra.
No decision is a decision as well, the decision not to decide. Not deciding is usually the wrong decision. If you are the go-to person, the one who can decide, you'll make more of a difference. It doesn't matter so much that you're right, it matters that you decided.
Of course it's risky and painful. That's why it's a rare and valuable skill.
