I actually created this video back at the end of February. I was supposed to do something else with it, but finally decided to simply share it with you : )
What did you get out of it? Which tool will you start implementing now?
Have you heard of Danny Iny, Firepole Marketing or the Naked Marketing Manifesto?
If not, you should check it out!
Danny published 41 videos answering questions from his audience on various topics. I particularly enjoyed the following video about how to build organic traffic, and whether you should search-engine optimize your content or not. (more…)
I like when my place is clean.
But I don’t like having to be the one who does the cleaning. I find it a boringly repetitive task that builds nothing in my life.
A while ago I invited a girl over for dinner.
I didn’t take the time to do all the dishes and put everything back in its place. Before she got to my place, It was still a bit of a mess.
I anticipated what was coming as the door bell rang.
I was out dancing in a crowded bar on a hot and humid evening.
As I grabbed a drink at the bar, I noticed a very cute, tall and thin woman standing right next to me. We immediately started being playful. Our banter went on for the whole night.
She kissed me.
Then she invited me to join her and her friends to see the fireworks. It was yet another beautiful evening in Montreal.
Their friends introduced themselves, and they were all nice.
Everything was going well. (more…)
Liz (fictional name) was a sweetheart.
She was from Eastern Canada, and she had the cutest accent. She had dark blond hair, beautiful eyes and a radiant smile. She was genuine, sweet, caring, loving.
She had an amazing career. She was one of the smartest people I knew.
And she cared about me, a lot.
Our chemistry was incredible. She enjoyed my piano playing, and she played guitar and sang wonderfully.
We dated for a year, and we had a lot of fun. But I had doubts about her. I wasn’t sure she was the one for me.
Even though I liked her and I wanted to keep her in my life, I couldn’t return her love. Over time, it got very frustrating for her.
So she left me. It hurt and I deserved it. (more…)
My last long-term relationship did not end well.
It was very painful for the both of us. We broke up several times, and said mean things to each other.
And it was a great blessing in disguise.
In order to explain the lessons, let me give you a bit of context. So let’s backtrack to the beginning.
We met at a business networking event where I was giving a talk. I noticed her from across the room. A gorgeous and tall Russian princess with straightened black hair. She was wearing a beautiful grey dress. We met briefly, and she was looking for work. Her accent and gestures were very feminine. I figured I could connect her to a few people to help her in job search.
Fast forward a few weeks. She invited me to have dinner at her place. She was probably the person who made the best raw vegan food in town! I was blown away, and I was hooked.
That was the beginning of a delightful nightmare. (more…)
A few months ago, I was at a gallery opening.
It was a small gallery in Montreal, and there were only a few people at first. Then a group of five girls walked in, and one of them caught my eye.
She was gorgeous.
She was wearing a beautiful light dress that fit her body perfectly.
We started chatting and we hit it off instantly. I was a bit nervous inside but it didn’t really show. I was playful and fun. She was laughing, and everything was going well. We had several things in common. I even ended up giving her a little dance lesson on the spot. She loved it.
As the night came to an end, I asked for her phone number and got it.
That’s when I started messing it up. (more…)
The other day, I was at a cocktail mixer.
It was a ritzy crowd. The guys were all in suits, and the women were wearing fancy designer dresses. The music was good and the drinks were flowing. I looked across the room and I saw two girls chatting. One I didn’t know, but the other one I recognized from last Tuesday night. I wanted to get to know her better. Maybe tonight I’d get a phone number. I walked over and said hello.
It was all downhill from there. (more…)
