"Life will pay whatever price you ask of it." — Tony Robbins


Here's a short clip where Tony Robbins tells a story from his own life that helps you remember the adage "Life will pay whatever price you ask of it." Tony also makes a good point about clarity. Most of us think in terms of generalities -- but generalities do not get you to the goal. Generalities do not motivate. A good reminder to be clear and be specific.

Just received a new book: Seth Godin's "Poke the Box" - simple, short, awesome!

I just received a new book from Seth's new "The Domino Project." I get a lot of books sent my way but I usually can't plug 'em, but this short and sweet book is excellent. I do recommend it. I also appreciate that the letter was also short and simple with zero hype. Just a simple " Hopefully you can help us start a ruckus." Nice. And indeed I will do my best. I just bought five copies on Amazon to give to friends. Here is the link to Amazon where you can get more info including a video and an interview with Seth Godin. http://tinyurl.com/5rsf8je

PZ books *in English* at Junkudo in Umeda. Huge selection of English books

Pz_books_osaka

I finally stopped by Junkudo near Loft in Umeda (Osaka). This is a huge bookstore and has the biggest selection of English books I have seen in Japan. For example, my books in English are really hard (impossible?) to find in Japan (Japanese versions are easy). But Junkudo had my first two books and the bento box (but not the naked book yet). An impressive store for sure, but they still do not have the titles that an Amazon has (or their low prices). Still, I like bookstores and even bought a couple of books there.
