Are
you Loved &
Hated? Good.
by
Richard Fenton & Andrea Waltz
You
would think Tiger
Woods couldn't do anything else to damage his already damaged
reputation. But you'd be wrong. Tiger
Woods was
recently seen attending a Nickleback concert near his Orlando home.
In case you don't follow the music scene, Nickelback - a band that has
sold more than 30 million records - is considered one of the "LEAST
popular, MOST popular" bands in history. The people who love
them, LOVE them... and the people who hate them HATE them. In
other words, Nickelback is the perfect band for the times.
Because what Nickleback knows (whether they planned it or not) is that
the greatest way to mediocrity in this world is to try to be everything
to everyone. To walk the middle ground. To be
'vanilla'
when, as marketing guru Seth Godin says, the world is a
collection
of small groups looking for chocolate-jalapeño-pecan in a
Baskin-Robbins world of 31 glorious flavors. In other words,
if
you try to please everyone, you'll end up pleasing no one... including
yourself.

Quotables from
the Go for No! Movie

"It's
the oldest sales cliché in the work, "every 'No' gets you
closer
to a yes," but those clichés are clichés for a
reason...
they work some of the time, and that one does." - Larry Winget
