The Importance Of Email Backup
Viruses, software failures, power failures, human errors, hard drive failures are only a few examples of what could destroy the data on a hard drive, including all documents, pictures, emails and other files!Most home computer users don't need an expensive backup solution; as they only need to burn the folders with important documents and pictures to a CD-RW from time to time; this ensuring that in case of a disaster they can easily get them back.Togeder with documents and pictures, it's a critical operation to save the emails, attachments, ad

Pressure Washing Business Case Study, Tractor Cleaning
So often small service businesses fail to exploit niches, which have little if any competition. I know as I built my companies we always tried to identify all the market niches and go after them. We were not always able to succeed at everything, occasionally we would fail; it happened more than I would care to admit, but those are lessons learned. The best way to get to success is to learn from the challenges of the past and so in my office I have a huge trashcan, bigger than any executive you will ever meet. And it is always full. That’s okay. Let me tell

Dear Tristan,

I’m so frustrated about friends. I trusted someone who I thought was a good friend of mine and I ended up getting used. I really can’t tell who is really a friend and who is just fake and trying to use me. I once trusted my own judgment, but now…I’m not so sure. Can you please help me?

Hello Dan,

You’re not alone. Most people, including myself have this same challenge of weeding out the good from the bad in people that we know. In my own case, I am an “amiable” personality type, which means that I am somewhat shy and compassionate towards the emotions of others and as such, I am by nature more susceptible to manipulation than others. The word “friend” has very different meanings to each person and it’s the overuse of this word that causes problems. In many such cases, we have simply forgotten what true friendship really is. Personally, I have very few true friends, perhaps only two or three at the most. That’s because a true friend as I define it is someone who would stop their own daily routine to come to help me despite the fact that there was no incentive or quite possibly even risk or pain to do so. That is true friendship to me and it falls right up there with a level of love that is as powerful as the bond of a family. Very few people I know meet these criteria.

Hello Dan,

Biofuels and Future Potential Problems Down the Road
It is quite possible that there will be future potential problems and issues with biofuels down the road. For instance if we are to break our addiction to Middle Eastern foreign oil we will need to produce 15% or more of our fuel by growing it here in the United States Midwest, but to do that we need to produce quite a bit of it. It is possible to grow it, but we need refining capacity and a distribution network to get to market. Additionally people will need to have cars, which run on flex fuels or can run both diesel and ethanol.After we hit 15%

Want To Run Better Meetings?
There are dozens of meetings that take place every day in organizations. There are informal spur-of-the-moment meetings. There are weekly staff update meetings. There are monthly executive meetings. And there are board meetings, training meetings, strategic planning retreats, meetings with clients, staff and suppliers.Most meetings generally take too long, cover too little, end without specific plans, objectives or outcomes and waste time, money and resources. I believe that “meeting” is an important business function. Meetings get people together t

Serial Dating
Serial – “Of, forming, or arranged in a series.”Dating – “An engagement to go out socially with another person, often out of romantic interest.”In the past month alone I have had over twenty emails from women who are seeking help with a dating history characterized by seeing men for two or three dates and then never hearing from them again. In some cases, there has been some email contact or the occasional phone call after the last date, but no mention of seeing each other again. These women want to know what they are doing wrong or i

Dan, you didn’t specify if this friend was a guy or a girl, but seeing that you selected “used” as your victimized verbiage, I’ll take a leap and say that this friend was a girl. When dealing with opposite-sex friendships, things become more complicated, mainly because of perceived, assumed, or potential love-relationships forming for one person or both. And we all know that once you fall for a guy or a girl, you’re no longer thinking with your rational mind, but rather with your emotional one.

The simple question that you must ask yourself when engaging in any relationship, plutonic or love, is this: Do they have your best interests in their heart—or do they have their own?

Well, then you might ask, “How am I suppose to know that?”

There are some simple tests that you can perform to see if your friend is truly a friend from the heart, or someone who is just out to get what they want from you.

1. Self-Sacrifice. You may do everything to help her out, but if you need help, would she give you back the same level of help that you extended to her? If the answer is “no,” then be careful.

2. Genuine Time-Sharing. This is an important one because it’s a test of the true synergy in a friendship. When you spend time together, are you spending time just to enjoy each other’s company and companionship? …or do you find that you only spend time together when your “friend” needs help or something from you?
