It's On!

It's On!

I have been preparing for weeks.
I have tried to get my butterflies to fly in formation.
The excitement is building to a climax.

This week I perform in my one man Melbourne Fringe show, Gough. It's on!



Firstly a huge thanks to everyone who bought tickets. The opening night is a sell out and over 85% of tickets to the six shows have been sold. ( If you want to go, check ticket availability here)

I have some big shoes to fill. Gough is an icon of Australian politics so I want to represent him well. While I regularly speak for hours on stage, to perform a one man show and bring a script to life for 40 minutes is something completely different.

How do you feel when a project you have been working on is about to go live? Whether it is an IT system, a new product launch, redecorating the house or simply getting some landscaping done, the culmination of a lot of hard work is incredibly rewarding.

It's time to play the music; it's time to light the lights; it's showtime. It's on!

How Come I'm So Broke?

How Come I'm So Broke?



Accountants the world over are dealing with this question from their clients on a regular basis.

Some of us ask this question every time we look in our purse/wallet or visit the ATM.

Businesses with huge revenues regularly go into liquidation. Businesses earning good money have low bank accounts, so where is the money?

Tanya Lacy from Intercept taught me years ago that Revenue is Vanity and Profit is Sanity.
Danielle Storey from Million Dollar Relationships continues to insist that people Know Your Numbers.
Jerry Maguire insists that you Show Me The Money.

Cash flow is king, so stay on top of it. I regularly (every couple of days) look at my bank accounts - personal and private. I don't spend money if I can't afford it. I pay off unsecured debt (credit cards) in full when it is due. I am on top of what money is coming in and going out.

Most importantly, I think long term and short term on my finance. Wifey and I have long term investments we can service now. My Bromance keeps telling me to spend money on landscaping, a deck, air-conditioning, a new Jag - all things I talk about wanting but I don't need.

While I want them, they are really not essential and I can see that putting that money in my investments will give me a better lifestyle not that far down the track.

Oooo..... Delayed Gratification!!

What about you Dear-Reader? Do you know your numbers? Do you measure Profit or only Revenue? How is your long term AND your short term financial health?


PS WOW! What a response!
In the past two weeks I have given away over 100 Get More Fun CD's.
Originally I limited it but so many people wanted it that I had another batch of CDs made.
The feedback on the CD has been fatastic.
So if you want your own copy of the Get More Fun CD, simply visit this page and enter your details and I will send it to you. Check it out now!

Don't worry, I have done the numbers and I can afford it. You are worth it!!!

Where Does The Time Go?

Where Does The Time Go?




It's Monday ... AGAIN! 

This seems to keep happening on a regular basis. So why are people surprised when it comes around?

"Can you believe it's Monday already!" 

It's a bit like Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries, remembrance days .... you name it, they come around quick.

Can I highly recommend to you that you take advantage of this? Dear-Reader, you KNOW that time will go quick, so you have to do more, experience more, be more in the limited time you have left.

Don't wait to do the thing you have always dreamed of, start it today.

If you don't start your desire (say piano lessons), in two years time, all you will be is two years down the track and still unable to play the piano. But if you start, you will be able to do way more than you do on a piano today. Even if it is merely to master the art of chopsticks!!

Don't be the person sitting around waiting for things to happen wondering, "Where Does The Time Go?"

Reward Within

Reward Within



It annoys me when I have been a customer of a company for a prolonged period and they don't look after me.

It is even worse when I have spent thousands of dollars with that company and all I get in return is price increases!!

Health insurance companies, I am looking at you! 
Mobile phone companies you are also guilty of this sin.
Internet providers - you too!!

Don't get me wrong, I know why they do it. They offer discounts to new clients to get them in the door and on a 12 month contract. But it seems unfair that new customers get a free month when the existing customers get NOTHING!

The statistic of "It's 5 times easier/cheaper to sell to an existing customer than it is to get a new one" has been bandied around for years. We all know about it but how many of us actually do anything about it?

It is time for me to put my money where my mouth is.

As my way of saying thank you for being part of my tribe and community, I want to GIVE you a copy of my latest CD. My other CD's are priced at $39 but this one is yours GRATIS. I will even pay the postage. 

All you have to do is this, visit this link and enter your address so I can send it to you.

Done...  That's it!

BUT THIS IS ONLY FOR THE FIRST 70 PEOPLE! So as they say in the classics, order early to avoid disappointment!!

By the way, the CD is Get More Fun at Work. It is a conversation between Jacki Mitchell and I (as well as some input from some other experts) on her radio show Taking Care of Business.

So what will you do to reward within?

What Do You See?

What Do You See?



I was fortunate enough to be hosting an association conference last week. It was held at the Alice Springs Convention Centre.

This image was the view out of the back of the convention centre at 7am. To me, it is simply stunning. It was an awe inspiring location.
During my conversation with other attendees, I realised that not everyone shared that perspective.

  • Some only spend time inside the convention centre networking with other attendees
  • Some felt the night activities outside were too cold
  • Some thought the town centre was empty with many shops for lease
  • Some spend their afternoon on tours on both sides of the McDonald Ranges
  • Some felt that the weather was too good to spend inside
  • Some felt that their travel agent needed a good kick because they bought them tickets to Ayers Rock and NOT Alice Springs (a five hour drive away!)
  • Some felt the countryside so stunning that they spent the two days driving from Adelaide to get there rather than fly
  • Some liked the place but couldn't wait to get back home.


Dear-Reader, I am sure you have your own opinions as well.

That is the point. All too often we see something and think that everyone else will see what we see. That is NOT true. Everyone has different filters, different histories, different ideals, different values and this all impacts how they will see things.

So what do you see?
