There’s a rising call for developed countries to track happiness, rather than just income and wealth. Economists say that the goal of a “rational actor” is to maximize his or her “utility” – their fancy term for happiness – over the course of his or her life. Perhaps governments are trying to catch up with the economists! . . Leicester University in England has tracked happiness for the past 30 years. Consistently, Denmark – not Disneyland – has topped their list as the happiest place on earth. We wondered why why are the people in Denmark so darn happy? Is it the weather? Average temperatures in Copenhagen are about 68 degrees in the summer and around zero in the winter. We don’t know about you, but that’s not our idea of great weather! Is it the taxes? Like her sister Scandinavian countries, Denmark has some of the highest taxes in the world. Now, granted those taxes are matched with some of the highest benefits for any citizenry. Is it their lifestyle or their habits? Danes are some the heaviest drinkers and smokers in the world? Is it their diet? One of the staples of the Danish diet is herring – this is a country that eats a lot of herring! . So it can’t be the diet, because maybe it’s just my personal taste, but ick! . . . Now there a lot of theories about what makes the Danes so happy. One of my theories is that they drink so much, they don’t remember whether they’re happy or not! . . Seriously, theories are fine, but we thought we should look at what the research shows is driving this happiness. Professor Kaare Christensen at the University of Southern Denmark found that Danes have low expectations. Because of this culture of expecting less, the people are happy when good things happen. This made us think of something Tony Robbins said – if you’re not happy, you have a choice. You can either change your conditions or your expectations. But what if you don’t want to change your expectations? Tal Ben-Shahar, who teaches the most popular class at Harvard University, found that the single most significant predictor of happiness is close relationships with friends and family. We found it interesting that 92 percent of Danes belong to some sort of social club. Maybe that’s why social media has become so bigg! What do you think? Subscribe to The Bigg Success Show in iTunes.

The Council on Contemporary Families published a summary of previous studies, looking at data over 30 to 40 years. Here are some highlights: . . 1. Men’s share of household duties doubled as a percent of the total over last 40 years, from 15 percent to 30 percent of the total. The number of hours women spend on these same duties has declined over that period. 2. The younger the couple, the higher the share of household duties performed by the man. 3. Time spent caring for children tripled for men and doubled for women over the same period. Couples are placing much more emphasis on spending time with their kids than they did 30 years ago. 4. The longer a woman works outside the home, the greater the percentage of household responsibilities assumed by the man of the house. 5. Men are working less and spending more time on family duties. Women are trending in the opposite direction. 6. When the woman of the house works more hours, earns more money, or has more education than the man, the man’s share of family duties increases. 7. About one of out three couples now has a woman who earns more than the man. They pointed out that there had been an expectation of immediate change when women started working. That didn’t happen to the disappointment of many! However, over the span of a few decades, things have changed quite a bit and they predict this trend is here to stay! The bigg payoff Couples are redefining what it means to be the man or the woman, the father or the mother, in a relationship. This summary shows that the divorce rate is lower when couples divide up the duties more equally. In fact, it’s even lower than with the traditional relationship where one person is the breadwinner and the other person runs the house. . Mary-Lynn and I both grew up in a traditional family that stayed together. But we’re pretty non-traditional. . . Yeah, I remember that my mom was always in the kitchen. I determined long ago that wasn t for me! She kept telling me you re going to have to learn how to cook, what are you going to do when you are out on your own? I told her I would just meet a guy who knew how to cook and marry him. And that guy is George! And let me just add he s an AWESOME cook!!! . Roles are getting redefined so don’t listen to what other people say. If it works for you, your spouse, and your family it works! .

Geoffrey Moore, in his book Living on the Fault Line, discussed the “Core versus Context Model” for businesses. Core activities are things which set you apart from your competition and context is everything else. For many businesses, this may include administrative activities, marketing activities, and the like. As we discussed his model, we realized that this works in our personal lives as well. You want to do more of the things you’re really good at and less of everything else. Usually, we really like to do what we’re good at so by focusing on just those tasks, we can advance in our careers. Like for us, our strength is working on content for Bigg Success. At least we’d like to think so or more importantly, we hope you think so! For us, the contextual activities would be everything else. So for a couple of examples, we outsource our house cleaning and the yard work. Instead of spending time on these things, we can work on our business. You’re getting a glimpse into how integrated our personal and professional lives are. Since we often work from home, all of these decisions are floating around together. We don’t think we’re alone on this – a lot of people are finding it pays to integrate their work life and their professional life. By outsourcing your contextual activities, you save time and you open up the opportunity to make more money. It comes back to the time vs. money conundrum If you don’t have money, you have to invest more time. . For example, if you start a business that is well-capitalized, you will be able to spend your time differently than if you start on a shoestring. With limited capital, you may have to take care of the janitorial work – a lot of business owners have done that. I’ve done that! . At first, you may have to do it yourself because there’s no money. But you want to contract it out as soon as you can because it’s definitely a contextual activity, unless you happen to be the owner of a janitorial service. Thinking about core vs. context helps you focus on where you want to spend your time and where you want to spend your money. You think twice about spending money because there’s something else that will let you spend more time on your core. You may find that you spend your money on things that save you time, rather than cost you time. . I want a bigg screen TV, but we would rather spend that money on a web person. Right now, I handle our web site. So when there are changes that need to be made, I get to work. But there are better uses of my time. . Because we know that’s not in our core. Bigg Success is still in its early stages, so as soon as we can we’ll outsource this activity. Another example is publicity – right now, we do it ourselves. We want to contract with someone who is better at it than we are and can accomplish more than we can on our own. So although we don’t have HDTV, we do have goals for that money! It boils down to thinking about how much your time is worth. You may find that by contracting out certain activities, it costs you less than what you can make by spending your time working in your core. Subscribe to The Bigg Success Show in iTunes.

Today we welcomed Bill Clennan, the Memory Man. Bill is a professional speaker who has given presentations at over 10,000 events and been inducted into the Speakers’ Hall of Fame. In his career, he has helped over one million people improve their memory. One of my weaknesses is remembering names. How can I get better at it? . People don’t remember names because they don’t think they can. It’s almost impossible to do something if you don’t think you can. . So we have to spin it around and start thinking that we can remember names. . Exactly. In fact, what I tell people is decide that you’ll remember 100 percent of the people 100 percent of the time. . How do you suggest we do that is repeating it back the best way? . . I never suggest to people to repeat it back. If we meet someone who uses our name over and over, we start wishing they would back off. But here’s the good news – just by thinking of the sound of somebody’s name, that part of your brain shows increased activity. To your brain, thinking about that sound is the same as saying it. I’m emphasizing the sound because when we meet people, we hear their name we don’t see it. That’s one of the things that makes remembering names rather difficult. . The fusion technique – fuse the face with the name . At the moment I hear a person’s name, I look at their face. So I take that information along with the sound of their name and, just for a moment, I bring them together. I connect the two things. So when I see their face again, there’s a place in the brain where those two things originally came together. The next easiest thing I might say to myself, “Tryin’ Brian”, “Shirley Girly”, “Silly Billy”, “Fancy Nancy”, “Slim Jim”, or “Georgie Porgie”. . There you go – except I’ve figured it out. Mary-Lynn’s been using this fusion technique for years because she always calls me “Georgeous”! I think I like that better than “Georgie Porgie”! . For a huge portion of the history of our species, we did not have the written word. Information was passed along in rhythm, rhyming, chant, and dance. So why not use that technique? . “Syllable-ize” – break the name into sounds . When you meet someone who has a multi-syllabic name, break it into sounds. I met someone named “Ken Oracheski”. So I just pictured him with an oar stuck through his chest and he was on skis. . The rhythm method . I met a guy in Honolulu whose name is “Takabayashi”. The very moment I heard his name, I went “talk-a-bye ashi in the tree top, when the wind blows ” When you tie things together in sound, get the first part the rest of it comes along for free. So listen for the rhythm. This is one of the clues if you have to meet four or five people in a hurry. Tie them together in sound and you’ll remember the whole string of names. I call it the rhythm method. It’s especially for Catholic folks! . I was going to say that I’d heard of the rhythm method, but it didn’t have anything to do with remembering names? . Yeah, but this one works better! . .

Morningstar, one of the most respected names in financial information, recently held their annual investment conference. There was a great deal of discussion about the volatility of the market and how jittery it s making many investors. Jittery investors like to do something, but the problem is they don t make the best decisions in troubling times. We have met the enemy! One of the speakers was Jason Zweig, who is also the author of Your Money and Your Brain. Our brains can be our own worst enemies when it comes to investing. He said there are two parts of our brain the reflexive (emotional) part and the reflective (logical) part. The emotional side is ever-present; we have to consciously call upon the logical part. Obviously, we want to buy low and sell high. The problem is, with the emotional part of our brains running rampant, we may tend to buy high and sell low! So don t get in a hurry to sell in times like these. Stay the course if your investment horizon is five or more years, because research shows that a broad portfolio of stocks tends to go up as long as you hold them for five years or more. If you need the money (e.g. you plan to retire or send a kid to college) within the next few years, talk to your investment advisor to determine your best move. You can make money with a stock that goes nowhere! Let s say that you have $100 to invest each month. You decide to invest it in a broad index fund (e.g. the S ve invested $200 total and your 15 shares are worth $150. You re in the red. But you don t care you re in it for the long-term! Month 2: Assume shares of this fund are now selling for $20 again. With your $100 monthly investment, you buy 5 more shares bringing your total to 20 shares, worth $400. But you ve only invested $300. You re $100 ahead, even though the share price is the same as it was when you started! Reacting logically may mean not reacting at all! It s very difficult (if not impossible) to predict what the stock market will do. However, research has shown time and again that staying the course is usually the most profitable path for most people. It s understandable that you might be worried right now with the market being so turbulent. But don t panic react logically which may mean not reacting at all!

You may especially enjoy listening to today s show. We had some fun with sound effects throughout, most which can t be translated to print! We recently saw a study that showed that nature-based recreation in the US has declined about 25% in the last 20 years, after increasing in the 50 years before that. So we did our show today in the middle of nature we camped out! We recorded the show in front of a nice fire while we roasted marshmallows. Nature comes with benefits Studies have shown that being outdoors has some incredible health benefits. In fact, even just SEEING the outdoors is beneficial. A little while ago, we saw a study that showed that hospital patients with a window recover much faster from surgery than those without. Isn t that amazing? This same study cited numerous sources that showed that spending time outdoors can lower stress and decrease mental fatigue. Born to be wild We ve been talking about the benefits of being outdoors. Now let s look at what the outdoors can do for one specific group of people kids. This same study we mentioned earlier showed that kids who spend more time outside pay attention better and are less demanding. It s even been shown to reduce symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). But going back to where we started, Americans are spending less time outdoors. Miracle-Gro, the garden fertilizer company, just conducted a survey. Nearly 70 percent of the parents who responded said their kids spend less time outdoors than they did when they were kids. My parents wouldn t let my sister and me inside until it was dark. They wanted us to run off all that energy! Now I know why Mary-Lynn brought me out here!

One thing people often don t think about when going into business with a friend is the relationship itself. You re going into business as friends. You want to remain friends. Business is full of surprises. Discuss the possible surprises upfront, before you mix friendship and business, so you can keep your relationship strong while you re in business. You may think your friendship is really strong and you re probably right. But when you go into business together, your friendship will be tested more than it ever has been before. It s wise to prepare for it beforehand, so you already have a lot of the answers when you re in the middle of a tough situation. Look at it this way a business partnership is like a marriage. You need a pre-nuptial agreement! So find a good attorney to draw up an agreement for you. 8 What if scenarios to discuss with your attorney #1 What if the business fails? According to statistics, if the business fails, it s most likely that no one will be owed any money. But what if that s not the case what if the business does owe money? How will you resolve that? #2 What if it succeeds wildly? That may not sound like a problem, but you d be surprised. Sometimes when a business succeeds at this level, greed enters in. Then comes the power struggles. Discuss the dream scenario upfront to avoid a nightmare. #3 What if one of you is incapacitated? What if one partner is no longer able to do his or her part? How will the others handle this? Will this person get bought out? Is there formula for the price? There s a lot to think about if this unfortunate situation happens. #4 What if one of you dies? Obviously this is even more extreme than the last scenario. There s the human side your friend has passed and you re grieving. But you also have business to attend to; work still needs to get done. Many of the same questions from Scenario #3 apply here. But there s more. For example, does the deceased partner s family now have an ownership stake? Or do you buy them out? #5 What happens when one of you gets married? Or you may already be married. What say does the spouse have in the business? Can the partner s interest be jointly owned with a spouse or do you want to restrict ownership to your original group? #6 What if one of you gets divorced? The business interest may be a significant asset. You probably don t want a former spouse having a say in your business even as a minority stakeholder. It can really muddy the waters, as the saying goes. What restrictions will you place on ownership? #7 What if one of you wants out? How will you determine a price? What kind of notice will you require? What is the process? #8 What if one of isn t pulling his or her weight? How will you determine that this is case? What can, and will, you do about it? These aren t pleasant things to think about, let alone talk about. However, you re more likely to find good solutions now when you re thinking logically than to try to work them out in the heat of the moment. We can t stress this enough get a good business attorney. Then sit down with your partners and your attorney and work through these issues. Your attorney will probably have even more situations to discuss. Work through these issues before you start for the sake of your friendship and your business. Subscribe to The Bigg Success Show in iTunes.

AuthorViews is proud to bring you two minutes with Gary Thomas in which we talk about his contribution to the Pelican Press book Louisiana In Words. We had the privilege of catching up with Mr. Thomas at the 2008 Tennessee Williams Literary Festival in New Orleans where he shared with us some truly explosive fishing stories and more. Take a quick foray into the wilds of Louisiana with Mr. Thomas at the helm.

Intro sequence to the show.

We ve been thinking about customer service lately, inspired by a trip and a book. I was in Chicago recently and I had to use the restroom. I saw this little hot dog place. I thought that I could grab a dog for lunch and use their bathroom. As I approached the door, I saw a sign. The sign said, No Public Restrooms. So I stopped, looked around, and noticed a McDonald s down the street. So I went to McDonald s. I could see a business to limiting the use of their facilities to patrons, because some people will just use the bathroom and leave. But to not even let your customers use it that seems a little extreme to me. I learned this lesson the hard way. One of my earliest businesses was a Ben Franklin store the old five and dime. We didn t let the public use our bathrooms. There was one particular day every year when the town held a huge community sale. We got tons of traffic on that day, many needing to use the bathroom. People would come in and walk out because we said, No . Why wouldn t they? We hadn t served their immediate need. So we changed our policy and most people who used the restroom did buy something. This makes me think of the book, Our Toilets are Not for Customers by Floyd Coates. He tells the story about shopping for light fixtures. His house had been severely damaged by a tornado. He had to buy lights for his new house, so he went to a lighting store. He was about half done with his list having already selected about $2,000 worth of merchandise when he got the call of nature. He asked a clerk where their bathroom was. She said, Our toilets are not for customers. She went on, There s a place a couple of blocks down the street. So he left and he didn t return they didn t get a dime out of him. One of my professors, who became one of my mentors, said that most policies are created for 3% of the people the exceptions rather than the 97% who are responsible for the success of the business. The #1 and #2 ways businesses flush money down the toilet #1 Create policies for 3% of their customers The hot dog place in Chicago is the perfect example of this. Would more than 3% of the people who walk through the restaurant s doors do their business without doing business with the restaurant? Yet all of their customers are affected by this policy. #2 Create policies for 3% of their employees The renegades, you might call this 3% of employees. But the other 97% suffer for it. This results in lower morale among all the employees especially the ones who did nothing wrong. Lower morale leads to lower productivity. What s that sound? Oh, that s the sound of money getting flushed down the toilet! This 3% rule is a good thing to think about before making any policy decision that affects customers or employees. We ve given one example, but there are so many more. What have you seen as a customer or an employee? How do businesses flush money down the toilet? Subscribe to The Bigg Success Show in iTunes.

Today on The Bigg Success Show, we welcomed Phil Rosenberg. Phil is the founder of reCareered, a career coaching service that helps job searchers get past the biggest challenge in today s competitive jobs market to get noticed. Phil, what does reCareered mean? It means someone who is seeking a job change, or trying to revitalize their career, or someone who is between jobs and wants help with how the job markets have changed in the last eight years or so. How has the job market changed? Eight years ago, the majority of resumes were delivered on paper. Around 2000, it changed to where most resumes were delivered digitally. And how does that change the resume itself? It changes it completely. The paper-based resume had to be static. The only way to customize it was by a cover letter. A digital resume can be searched. It also increased the number of resumes that went into most companies, by as many as ten-fold. We always hear about search engine optimization and how you want to rank at the tops of the pages for Google. But apparently you can do the same for your resume it can be optimized? You bet, and it s especially critical in today s world. Most major employers get thousands of resumes for each job, but they only staff to look at twenty to thirty. That s two to three percent. So your goal, in submitting your resume today, is getting to the top two or three percent. Through resume search optimization, you can manage that process rather than have it be random. My strategy with my clients is to make a resume a single-use document to have it infinitely customizable so that you re gaming the search engine and forcing it higher up the search page. How do we make a good impression right upfront? There s been research from the University of Toledo and Stanford University that states that interview decisions are made within the first two to thirty seconds. That blew me away. The rest of the interview is just somebody justifying their initial decision. So it s a gut feel decision that may occur even before you shake hands. It s all about preparation. Learn about your client how they communicate (verbally and non-verbally), how they dress, how they look. If you want a job, go to a place that s close to their office and sit there during lunch. Talk to people from that company who are getting lunch there. On a Friday night, go to Happy Hour at a bar close to their office and talk to people from that company. When you talk to them, watch their body movements. What s the tone they use? What s the speed they use to talk? You can also do that with their written communication their web site, annual reports, press releases. The key to all this is communicating to your audience that it seems like you already work there. It reminds me of the book, Guerilla Selling. It s all about learning about your customer, in that case, but in the case the employer you re going after getting as much information as you can, wherever you can. It s amazing how much information you can gather. Sure. That s also an effective way to use LinkedIn, Facebook or your own personal network. Chances are you have contacts within that company. A lot of people only use those contacts to see what jobs are available and to ask them to pass their resume along. They leave out some of the greatest uses of a network talking to people within an organization to find out what an organization is like and what the communication style is like. Listening for how they re answering questions rather than just what they re saying. This is fantastic advice because you do want to fit in. It s all about mimicking. When you re at an interview, should you sit up straight and lean forward or should you try to have your body language be similar to the body language of the interviewer? From what I ve read, you should try to mimic that person. That s exactly what you re doing it s called mirroring. You re trying to show that you fit in. You speak the same language. You re really trying to act like you already work at the company. It takes a ton of preparation. A lot of people aren t willing to put that preparation in, but the people who do get a huge, almost an unfair, advantage.

Happy Birthday, America! The TS crew is back this week to bring your Turnip Soup-Free month to an end. That's right, after a major technical disaster (read: divine intervention) took episode 66 away from us, we assembled the troops and took the weekend by storm. It's Independence Day weekend, and we can't think of a better way to start three days off than with a little TS in Tim J.'s backyard. Join Tim, Parker, Huff Daddy, NutZach, Bryan and Deb for some awesomeness: - Bryan's new nickname (any guesses?) - CD's Navy Duty, and how appreciative we are for his service - Name that teenage girl song, Bryan - Who's the best roommate? - ...and a bunch more. Word.

We re celebrating the 4th of July here in the United States. Fun, friends, and Fireworks! I love the fireworks. Watching them always makes me feel like a kid. One of my favorite stories is about a fireworks show gone wrong. I used to be in a service club called the Jaycees. Many local Jaycee chapters put on the fireworks show, particularly those in small towns. I heard about one chapter s show, in particular. One year, at the beginning of the show not more than a few fireworks in they lit one that misfired. It hit the pile of all the remaining fireworks! BOOM! An amazing display but their whole show was over in less than a minute! Nothing like having your grand finale at the beginning! There is an art (and some luck) to putting on a good fireworks show. As we were talking about this, we thought it was interesting how it relates to storytelling. The start It kicks off with a little burst that grabs your attention right away. Then you get into the flow. There s a certain rhythm to the fireworks, often synchronized with music. The rhythm changes throughout the show. At times, they re firing off quickly; at other times a little more slowly. When you tell a story, start with an attention grabber and then get going. Vary your pace with the action of your story. Talk faster to imply that things are developing faster or slow down when it s called for. Make your timing fit your story. The pseudo-finale Usually you ll see a pseudo-finale about half way through the show. They give you a taste of what the grand finale will be like. Sometimes it s so good that you think it is the finale! You get bummed that it s almost over. As you tell your story, depending on its length, think about how you can get them to anticipate the climax as you near the middle. This will keep them engaged and wanting more! The grand finale This is what everyone s been waiting for. It s almost sensory overload with so much going on at once the sound, the sights, the colors exploding in the sky one right after the other, sometimes on top of each other. You feel your heart start pounding faster that rush of adrenaline. You re in awe and you don t want it to end. You don t want your story to be like the Jaycees fireworks show I mentioned earlier. You want it to build, and build, and build to your final line - the point of your story. You want your audience on the proverbial edge of their seats. Leave them wanting more realizing why they should listen to you. 5 additional ways to get the most bang out of your next presentation It s unlikely that you would use all of these in a single presentation. However, variety virtually guarantees a better response from your audience. Start or end with a good joke. People love to laugh. It gets them fired up! Think more graphics, less text. It gives your message more pop! Blend video in. It gives you a break and can get your audience to react. Have a running theme a key word or phrase that you keep coming back to. This provides a little spark throughout your presentation. Finally, use sound effects. In case you haven t heard our show today, listen in to see how we used sound effects to make it more fun. At least we think it is! Keep in mind you ll get the biggest bang if you mix it up! Subscribe to The Bigg Success Show in iTunes. Subscribe to the Bigg Success feed.

Extraordinary interview with Arianna Huffington, Editor In Chief of The Huffington Post and author of the new book Right is Wrong . In this intimate conversation, Huffington discusses the general election between Barack Obama and John McCain, the state of our politics and media, the origins and philosophy behind The Huffington Post, and what we all need to do to get more involved in the public affairs of the US and the world at large.

AuthorViews is excited to bring you the latest in our ongoing series of two-minute interviews with authors around the world. In this installment, we get the privilege of hearing from Betsy Carter, the founder of the award-winning magazine New York Woman. A former writer for publications such as Esquire and Newsweek, she continues to write for a variety of national magazines. This is far from Ms. Carter's first foray into the land of book-length writing. Her memoir Nothing to Fall Back On was a best seller and her fiction debut, The Orange Blossom Special, was part of NPR's Summer Reading 2005 program. The conversation we had with her at Tess Fest 2008 was about her newest novel Swim To Me, a book praised by numerous reviewers. Joanne Wilkinson of BookList says, "In her warm, appealing second novel, Carter displays a sure feel for her 1970s Florida setting, right down to the aqua color schemes."

AuthorViews is proud to present two minutes with the legendary GiO! We had the honor of catching up to this New Orleans icon during the 2007 Tennessee Williams Festival right here in the Crescent City. In this brief 120 seconds, GiO talks about her time on Bourbon Street as well as her contribution to Louisiana in Words. GiO came to perform in New Orleans during the 1988 Republican Convention and got hooked on the architecture and feeling of decay exuded by the city. With ten years of dancing behind her and degree from New York's Pratt Institute, she moved to New Orleans possessed of a vision. A vision of re-igniting the fires of classical burlesque and bringing it acknowledgement as a legitimate art form. Dubbed "The Burlesque Queen of New Orleans" by The Times-Picayune, she reigned on Bourbon Street for seventeen years. This highly educated woman has also been a radio host, poet, performance artist, and much, much more since the day she came to New Orleans and discovered that it was her home. Eloquent, playful, and lovely to behold, even with only two minutes, GiO is not one to miss!
