Strategy - Predicting

If you've ever wanted to know something ahead of time, let's be sure that we add, not having to do with chance, but a measure of input and output, knowing ahead of time what the output would be, then you have grasped the essence of strategy. Just as there are three choices in life, it might also be conjectured that there are three strategic outlooks - the three choices we have discussed as: Accept, Reject, Change - and so we align then, strategic outlooks based upon an analysis of strategy which will be based upon, accepting, rejecting or changing. In forming a strategy we take into the mix, resources and time; within the which are many variants, yet, we come back again to the three, if the resources are sufficient, we accept them, if they are not we reject them, if we choose to have different resources, obviously, we choose to change them. In the forming of a strategy we want to speculate an outcome, a point at which we will have achieved what it is that we believe we need to. From that point we begin the process of determining if we have proper proportions of the mix, from which point we can determine if we shall accept it, reject it or change it. While this sounds simple, in reality, the formula becomes increasingly complex as we allow for variations to manipulate the outcome to our better satisfaction. What we come up with in its simplest form is an input=output + /- (v), we can best state this as i=o +/-(v), to this formula we can add then elements, t=time, as an example, we can measure work units as tasked accomplished variants, and so forth for each predictable use of the resource under formulation. We might for example choose to express the accomplishment of work units as a given of time input, to equal output so long as all resources remained constant. Where predicting outcomes moves toward higher science is in the details of variability to task, which is all expressed as an additional or subtracted determination. Would the work units being defined accomplished by twenty people change were that number to change to fifteen? Obviously, it would change, such change would be measurable but the decrease would be subtracted from the previously established sum, so that the overall calculation would be work units accomplished with twenty and one fifth such result would be five to be subtracted from the overall. In this manner predicting the outcome to resources over time can be accomplished. What we learn from W. Edwards Deming, however, is that even best plotted and designed systems cannot effectively be predicted, and that flexibility, ultimately, does come down to the most sensible adjustment of resources. Please take into consideration our chart to this effect and bear in mind that this is entirely an internal system, which has to consider all external matters as bearing on the resources to be joined into the input, certainly affecting the outcome.

Oh No - I Know You Didn't...

Used to Have? Sense of Humor? Have You Lost Your Mind?

I really love the sense of humor that some folks used to have,
before they found out they couldn't have that sense of humor anymore.
Most of them are just taking themselves way too seriously trying to
live up to some image that they believe is imposed upon them from
"on high." Where their sense of humor went is hard to say, I know
God didn't suck it out of them, God puts laughter in, not takes it out!
So we know it couldn't be that? Maybe they just have gotten so burned
out watching all the stuff on the television, that they've lost their
ability to listen to really good D.J.'s on the radio, a good friend
of mine is a D.J. and he really has a nutty sense of humor - and NO
Chris Voss, that isn't you, although if you want to see nutty sense of
humor in action, Chris ain' bad, NO, this feller that is a friend of
mine is local to Shreveport Louisiana, goes by Gary Robinson, has a
morning show, I think, which means, he needs a sense of humor. Chris
on the other hand, does his show 24/7, so most days, his head is so
fried, it's hard to imagine him not cracking up laughing. Gary is
doin' it every mornin' that I can get him on the dial, and he is just
excellent for making your morning "get up and get after it." Chris
is wonderful anytime...and they both are examples of laughter that
makes my head hurt less, but that's another joke for another day,
when my wife can't read it and the fryin' pans are put away...
"put the pan down honey...and step away from the counter..."

And The Humor Just Keeps On Rollin'

So it seemed like a day like any other day, kind of getting colder,
the wind made it that way, and there wasn't alot going on, other than,
listening to folks all around me seem down; which is when it occured
to me to "call Chriss man, he'll have something goin' on..." Now usually
I try to respect the fact that Chris is big time, Mr. Business, and he's
usually going to be doing something that I ought to not bug him about.
Chris, of course, always says, "hey man, call me anytime." Which he
knows the good dr. ain' gonna do, on account a his name is...Chris.
I'd said the day previous on Twitter that I might buzz him, a DM
(for the Twitter less among us...that's a Direct Message- which doesn't
get seen by everybody in Twitvil...we hope...) havin' gone his way to
that effect. So Chris naturally didn't answer on the first try...see if
they know "yer" comin' - right?

"They Did What?"

"Chris, this is Dana...how's it goin' man?"
"Ah hey, dude, it's goin' great man, how you doin?"
"Chris you just wouldn't believe all the good stuff goin' on here,
man I can't even imagine it...sometimes...myself..."
And it's one, we will exchange some ideas, some non sense,
and then I get down to the serious sales call bit, which Chris
being a gentlemen, puts up with. Then it happens, as we are
getting into the dynamics of selling I share with Chris that
perception, ah, perception, counts huge...he says "how so man?"
I say, "ever hear of operation "Dynamo drop?"
He says, "can't say as I have, what's a Dynamo drop?"
I say, "WWII, we take a bunch of rubbers that are extra large,
marked the crates as small, and dropped them near the
Russian German front."
"Nuh huh, we didn't ..." I didn't respond ...so he got that it was
real, but asked, "you aren't joking, your serious?"
"Yeah man...it really happened...that really went down..."
Bad, bad, choice of terms, but...he got the point, and was laughin'
a little, sort of chucklin'...I finished it off, "imagine their faces
when they saw those boxes marked "small" and then took out
those balloons? They musta' swore off messin' with us right
then and there, ya reckon?" You can finish this one...but thought
you might enjoy it...have a great day...HEY...do a dynamo drop on
somebody ya love...ooh...bad choice of terms again, huh? Well you
get my meanin' ...help 'em laugh out there folks...we need it...

Deep - That Is What She Called It - Secret Huh?

Look you can't make this stuff up, nobody is that creative.
Somebody honestly sat around and thought this stuff up, they
actually tested it, and came up with the theory that this
entry talks about. It is a very good guide, it has worked
for me many times and my hope in sharing it with you is that
it will somehow provide you some insight that will help you?

“You need to tell me about these people, I love these discussions but it isn't fair to keep me hanging on without telling me about these mysterious people, who are they?”
Her anxious, sitting forward nature really brought out the “fixer” in me, someone said once that men want to fix stuff, it's what we're like, so when women are just talking things through, we want to fix them; so we suggest solutions, which isn't what they want to hear, seems to me that might've been Dr. John Gray, who, turns out, would be, one of “those” people.
“Let's say that the people that we're talking about aren't strange or odd, and they aren't conspirators, that isn't what Rhonda Byrne meant when she said that people needed to know this and didn't.”
“Well then fine,” She was listening pretty attentively, I knew I should go on...
“When she realized that people didn't understand the law of attraction, she was flabbergasted...”
“She was what?”
“Flabbergasted, it means...” “I know,” she quipped in, “what it means, you get my question?”
“Sure, in many ways your question was hers, why didn't people generally know this, like they would know other laws of physics? Oddly, that is precisely what many quantum physics scientists are alluding to, that is there is something deeper at work, Byrne and others just maintain that this law which they have established as the law of attraction is what is at work.”
“This sounds a bit, out there, it really does...”
“Which is why I had you look at Dr. Wolf's stuff, he's a peer reviewed quantum physics scientist, but he isn't the only one, check out this list of people who believe as Byrne and others do: Ludwig van Beethoven, Alexander Graham Bell, Joseph Campbell, Andrew Carnegie. Winston Churchill, Robert Collier, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Ford, Victor Hugo, Carl Jung, Martin Luther King, Issac Newton, Plato, W. Clement Stone and there are many others of the past greats.” “OK, so those are some pretty impressive past greats, would I recognize any of the people who weren't past greats?”
“First there is one I want to call to your attention, because he is one awesome individual, his name is Hermes Trismegistus, he is associated with something called, “the emerald tablet,” and it contains a fascinating statement “as above, so below, as within, so without,”
“That sounds sort of mystical...” But she wasn't frowning, so I continued, “what I find interesting about him is the name you might recognize, it's his Arabian name,”
“Arabian? You don't speak...”
“No, no, I know that, it's just that, this is cool, his Arabian name is...Enoch.”
(see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermes_Trismegistus and other resources...)
“Oh, you can't be serious, I've heard of him, isn't he that guy in the Bible? That one that...”
“Yup, that's the one, you know the story?” “Doesn't it say that he just dissapeared or something?”
“That's the one, pretty much different isn't it?”
“So he was a person who believed in this force of attraction?”
“Law of attraction...”
“Pick, pick, pick, you know what I mean...”
“Yes, apparently his tablet is one of the earliest mentions of how this works, would you like to know more?” She had that look which said “does a squirrel eat nuts?” So it seemed smart to me to try and get into the modern folks and see if she recognized some of them? These people who are so much about leading the world out of the most deadly virus that has ever hit the earth, and nobody, well, let's say, very few, even realized this plague was upon us, and in fact, we're suffering under it right now!

One Thing - Please Make Sense

If you've had the experience of trying new stuff out, sometimes,

after spending a bit more for it than you'd like, to where, when

it doesn't work, you do take it back, or make that call, you know,

the one we all really hate to make; "hello is this tech support?"

Imagine then that in writing it's a little bit like that, and a lot

feeling wise, like that for the reader. When you take in these

words, they get you curious; you wonder where it's going, and

right about now, you are hoping it's going to make sense. Those

are the feelings that are standard issue to us all, I read a lot of

blogs, and even follow a few mentors on the web; for example,

Chris Voss, who has a marvelous blog called "The Chris Voss Show,"

Chris is fantastic, cutting edge, marvelous, and a genius that I

follow and respect. About half way through Chris's stuff, however,

is usually when I start hoping it is going to be worth it, and guess

what, he's never let me down, yet. Nor will I you, so hang on

there partner 'cause it's gonna get with it! (Jim Carey voice there...)

The following is worth...hang on gang..here it comes...$1295.00...

It will cost you...HANG ON...WAIT FOR IT.... $0.00 --How come?

Simple...it's a come on...I want you to look over this graphic and

it's mind blowing information...that you've probably not seen anywhere

else, and then...consider the seven points with it, and then realize,

"Gad zooks, this is powerful stuff..." AND THEN...go to drd4u.com

and subscribe for about $4.95...and guess what...you will instantly

get MORE...much, much, more...but don't take my word for it, step

off into the fun right here, right now, for free...and take it from there...

SO...HERE WE GO...

WHY THEY SELL AND YOU DON'T

1. They know this material.

2. They know their people.

3. They combine those two.

The reason people will buy what you are selling is because first

you get what is following on the graphic, and second, they feel like

you get them, like I get you, you're a little curious, you've heard all

this sort of stuff before, but, this is just a tad different, isn't it?

A bit stronger...know why? This material was learned over many

years, I'm in my fifties now, and have had years and years of highly

technical training from masters in the craft, and a huge amount of

success because of it, I've had three careers, been successful, and

failed, and got back up, and failed again, and got back up, and, failed

again, and got back up and...see a pattern here? Guess what, no

matter where a person is, they won't be there tomorrow.

Mastering your success in selling your people to themselves,

be it as purchasers of your product, or, as fellow travelers with

your product, is all about getting back up and being willing to try.

You won't always succeed (shocking fact isn't it?) but you will not

fail, if you continue to try. So here is that graphic, let's see if this

can't get you to thinking a bit about really having the success you want.

You may not understand these terms, so let's very quickly now,

go over them: 1. A new situation is one you haven't been in before-

you have no emotional frame of reference for it. This is important,

the emotional frame of reference is new, the feeling is, "I wasn't ready

for this to happen right now." 2. Concrete Experience - one which

has emotion in it! Feeling of "Yippee this is fantastic," or even, "OMG!"

Pretty sure you get it? 3. Publish and Process - about the concrete

experience, people talk about what they feel about. 4. Generalize

about the concrete experience, people will tend to feel one way or

the other in general it was good or bad, of the concrete experience.

5. Plan contingency - this is thinking through what to do the next

time such a situation presents itself. 6. Implement plan - which

brings us to a - New Situation 1. It is a circle of learning, but it

is also so much more. This is not only how and why people learn,

but it is also the depth chart on how that keeps coming up, and

why and how people communicate about the events in our lives.

We all go through this, but there is more in this when you get into

the details of what makes up a concrete experience, than we can

cover here in the blog. Believe me, we have tons more to share and

to assist you in getting ideas about how to stimulate your customers

concrete experiences as they visit your pages or stores, or blogs. So

what was our deal? That's right, I save you the cost on the course,

that we took, and, you check out more info for very little denaro -

shucks if you ain' happy we gonna even give the denaro back to ya,

can't have folks unhappy...BUT...while we are there...ever hear

anybody gripe about our stuff? Nope...that's cause we good babe...

we got the goods goin' on for ya...check us out and see if it ain' so...

Until then...this is drd sayin' it's been ...and it will be again, in 2010!

Secret Passages Are You In Them

Hot summer day, dry, dusty park, lots of leaves, everybody playing
and having a grand time on the slide and the swing set; ah, it is
hot though, then you see it, the Ice Cream stand. The heat has
made you thirsty, and the dry dust of the playground has made
you even more so. Nothing beats the taste of a cool ice cream
cone on a hot park day. The sweetness, the great chocolate mint
taste, or Pistachio, if you like that (my favorite), takes the
heat and the sand and makes it all, better. The fun the flavor
and the great feeling create something truly wonderful.

The first of anything, usually isn't the best, sometimes
it takes a few practice runs to get things worked out
so that they are, the best. Take for example, your
first kiss, usually ain' all that great, truth be told,
but it's memorable. Kissing gets better as experience
kicks in, lots of things do. Experience is a strange
putting together of life that we lead and life that
we dream about; where the dream matches the times we
had, or, are planning on having.

The best kept secret is, you can have the best,
it is in you at any moment- it is in your heart,
translated by your mind into what your heart wants
to make of your life, let it.

Cellular and Technology – Are You in the Picture?

The picture of cellular is rapidly becoming one of use, maximum use, and best services to you, have you noticed that you are being sought after by lots of brands in their ads? The competition goes at it with big brands such as Motorola, HTC, GE, RIM (Research in Motion) and others weighing in for the fight; you see, while it seems that the technology has arrived and now is mature, it isn't; it is still an infant. What this means to you is that so many good things are coming, that this article will be very helpful, to show you some of them, but also to provide some references and some ideas about what might be best for you.

This is not so much about choice as it is use, choice you might agree, has much to do with use. My daughter asked a friend what they thought of “Droid,” they said the weren't impressed, she asked another friend they said “it's awesome you have to get one,”: she asked someone who we respect in the technology field they said that it is almost as good as an iPhone, and she said ot me, "what does all this mean? Which one should I get?" If you've faced similar thoughts and indecision, then keep reading as how we solved that may help you.

My first question was the obvious one, what do you do most of? She responded, "never thought about it, but I text more than talk I think?" This might be true of you also, so I asked her the next question about that, "do you put pictures into your text?" "No I don't, just text." She had now filled in the blank for use, she needs a phone that does text really well, pictures sometimes, and you can talk on it. For me it's not a question of that, I need to be able to talk, my cell phone would die of malnutrition if texting were eating. So let's recap that point, use is a very large part of what the phone is about.

Does the device work with you? Some phones are just not for your hands, they don't Bluetooth like you want, they aren't setup screen wise the way you like, it's really such a personal decision, and yet, if you haven't thought about these features, they can throw you and you can end up with a phone that you just aren't comfortable with. It's been our expereince, and we believe, the experience of a great many people to look before you leap on that phone.

Now let's talk about the cellular term that everyone knows is a carrot in the deal, upgrades! What an upgrade can mean is wonderful fun, wonderous entertainment, "WOW" as a total overall rating. Yet there is also a side to upgrades that is hidden, has to do with costs, has to do with plans, has to do with networks. If you aren't sure, be certain before you entertain the new member of your family.

Summarizing as a way of concluding our thinking together, the cellular changes are coming fast, they are coming faster than Gordon Moore (author and discoverer of the law which sees technology advancing faster than human thinking) even saw; they are better, sharper, and yet, they can be misleading. The only real rules for caution which seem to fit are, be certain you realize what you are getting into, before you get into it. My sense is to not make the upgrade or purchase without a day or so to think it over, but that's just me being overly cautious, and, having the same Razor for three years, one thing I've discovered about that three year old puppy, it'll still bark when I want it to and it doesn't go to the bathroom on the floor. Something good can be said about that I guess?
