  • Phil learns to serve rather than be served! - Phil swaggered into my office, sank into the back of the chair that I offered - and swiftly folded his arms.

  • Masters - April 2009 - What Might Have Been - The winner of the Masters this past Sunday, Angel Cabrera, ultimately deserved the title of Masters Champion. Having been in contention with his stellar play the first three rounds and playing steadily on the earlier holes on Sunday, he was all but out of the running a few holes later when he dropped from -12 to -9 with bogies but he never conceded to the competition.

  • Phil Hellmuth's Book Makes Me Play like an Intermediate - Phil Hellmuth can come off as a cocky guy, but let's face it he has something to be cocky about. Hellmuth has won a record breaking eleven bracelets all in Hold 'Em mind you. Although he has said statements like "If luck weren't involved, I guess I'd win every one" you can't help but appreciate his skill. The "poker brat" as he known has written a book titled Play Poker like the Pros. His book is not exactly what I would call helpful. It is boastful and unhelpful for the most part. For starters I can do without the long-winded I am so great speech.
  • How to Listen Intently - I was raised in a family where communication circled around but never went directly to the source. If my mother wanted to know something about my brother, she'd ask my sister; if she wanted to know something about my sister, she'd come to me, and so on. Judging from the frequency in which I see this evasive communication style in business and elsewhere, I assume that I was not the only one raised in this manner. Evasive Communication is tucked into these examples: 1. Phil believes that an associate is interfering with his project to gain headway with the CEO. What should he do? What strategy will insure his ultimate success? 2.

  • Communicate Directly - In our family, I'd hear from my sister some message my mom wanted me to hear, or my brother would hear her words of wisdom from my dad.

  • Quit Making Excuses and Start Living Now! - Some people believe that negative thoughts are the biggest roadblock to positive thinking. However, that’s not entirely true. The greatest enemy of positive thinking is making excuses. On the surface, excuses appear harmless. If you stop to think about it, excuses can be quite harmful as they can prevent us from growing and achieving our desires. When you make an excuse, you are usually allowing fear to dictate your choices. I am not saying you should do things that you don’t want to do. What I am saying is not to let your fear of something prevent you from doing something else you would really enjoy.
  • Antioxidants Supplements May Give Us A Fighting Chance - Good health is often determined by a good environment, as well as great foods. A high dose of antioxidants can give us a fighting chance in spite of some ‘not-so-good’ environments and less than optimal foods. How is this so? Oxidization and free radicals from ‘hazardous elements’ that we eat, drink and breath can break down our health. Just like automobiles need protection to keep from rusting (oxidizing) so our bodies need antioxidants to fight the affects of free radicals and oxidization in our bodies. They get into the cells of our bodies and can break it down even at the cellular level. In worse case situations, the affects can spread to untold number of cells nearby. Antioxidants can diminish, or in some cases, reverse the affects of the free radicals.

  • To Consolidate Or Not To Consolidate - There is nothing worse than being in debt to lots of different companies at once. When demands for money appear through your letter box from people that you can barely even remember, then, as Carol Vorderman and Phil Tufnell never tire of telling us, it may be worth consolidating all of them in to one easy monthly payment.

  • Relationship Rescue - Those early on days in relationship are easy ones at time everything regarding your partner is observed through the rose colored glasses as well as any kind of the character flaws are unnoticed in the favor of those gorgeous features, which make everything very perfect. Unnecessary to say, not the consideration goes how you maintain that ideal catch or else what it gets to make the long-term connection work.
