I apologize for going off-topic dear readers. But when you’re talking about the best damn movie in recent times, you simply have no choice but to let everyone know what a wonderful cinematic journey The Dark Knight was.
It’s a trip I will eagerly relive, whether I return to the theater or watch the DVD. Everyone’s […]
I’m confused. On one hand, you’ve got Shane saying:
Prioritize the things on your list. If you’re not sure what to do first, do the stuff that makes you money first and the stuff that costs you money last. Other than that, knock off the easy stuff and then settle in all relaxed on the tougher […]
McGraw-Hill Education sent me a copy of Managing Online Forums the other day. Now, in terms of managing online communities, I don’t see where your average freelancer comes in. I mean, not even the majority of high-profile freelancers maintain forums right?

To be honest, I don’t know why. But the recently concluded 2008 men’s finals in Wimbledon—where Nadal finally dethroned five-time champ Federer—was so spectacular that I just had to write about it here. And of course, post highlights!

My problems with punctuality have been well documented. I always try my best to meet those deadlines, to be on time for client meetings, and finish my work early. But it’s not 100%; I’ve noticed that I slip on certain projects, involving certain kinds of work.
It’s worrying […]
I once argued that teachers are really good at what they do, contrary to the widely held belief that “those who can’t do, teach”.

High gas prices? Here’s freelancing to the rescue!
Countries all over the world share your pain America. Countries like my own are also experiencing record gas prices, and we’re screaming at our respective governments to do something about it. Isn’t it uncanny how the world can be so similar all over?

Summary: While I can’t get work done while listening to music, I’ve found that preparing with positive-sounding tunes does wonders for productivity.
