Most businesses during this time of year do a lot of year-end inventory.
They check and see whether or not they made the sales they needed to. They check and see what they need to order in the new year. The bookkeepers are frantically crunching numbers so they can get taxes done.
It’s inventory time. The world is taking inventory right now and figuring out what they need for next year. Businesses are figuring out what their cash flow is. Hotels are frantically trying to sell hotel rooms. Households are trying to make just a little more money to close out the year and make sure it was a great year.
And women are looking around and basically thinking….

We have a generation that’s missing something.
We actually have a couple generations now that are missing things. Anybody born after the year 1980 is missing something. That thing is one of the beauties of making life work. It’s called the art of communication.
I see high school kids constantly on their phones texting. I see kids texting at age seven. I even saw a grandfather the other day in an elevator playing on his phone while his grandson was standing there bored. We’ve become a society of texters….

Ever since I moved to California, I just never feel the Christmas spirit. I’m from New York City, and in New York City there is a ton of Christmas spirit. Everywhere you go there is a “Sidewalk Santa” next to a Salvation Army kettle, Christmas music, Christmas decorations and just an incredible feeling of Christmas in the air.
In Los Angeles, December never feels “Christmas-like.” It is little bit chillier, but it really just feels like a different variation of October and November days. There are little pockets of the area that seem to realize it’s Christmas, but for the most part if you didn’t know the date……..

Hey guys, Shogo here with another weekend blog for you!
Here’s a comment that a reader left on the blog that I really wanted to address. I’ve heard it quite a few times from guys and the topic is really relevant for guys who don’t drink alcohol but still want to go out and experience some nightlife….

Black friday 2011. A great day to go out and people shop this weekend. The stores are going to jam packed with many opportunities to meet men and women.
Plus I think all of them will be on sale, this weekend is a great time to get a deal on a potential mate. Do you want to know my number one way to meet people today? The message is hidden in this blog so you better read it carefully…..

I’ve enjoyed all your comments, your opinions, the battles, and just that you took the time out to respond to my posts and be part of this community that I’ve built.
It’s Thanksgiving. It’s never been my favorite holiday in the world.
When I was a kid we always used to go to my grandmother’s house in New York City. I had, as most kids had, two sets………

Every night during this intense one week coaching program in London we get really deep about dating and relationship issues. The other night we had a few people over to the flats and we got into a conversation about flaking and dating.
It seems that the British are not as flaky as the americans when it comes to keeping a date.

When I was trying to fall asleeep last night on my flight to London, I looked at the person next to me and thought. Who has the home bed advantage on this plane?
