British Virgin Island Pictures
February 8, 2010 by Simon · Leave a Comment
Here are just a few of the 580 pictures that we took on the absolute best holiday of our lives. There was no taking a week to get into it. It took less than 15 minutes on the boat and we were disconnected from the outside world and the newspapers, radio and TV were not missed. [...]

It’s ironic that I am sat here writing this blog at 6am on Friday morning Feb 5 after getting home last night at midnight from a 21 hour travel day returning from The British Virgin Islands via San Juan – Dallas – Vancouver.
The irony is that I committed to keep the Door Closed on the [...]

Travel Celebration Update 12-15-09
December 15, 2009 by Simon · Leave a Comment
Celebrating I worked Sunday, December 13, 2009. Yes celebrating because Air Canada called at 4pm on Monday and cancelled my 6am Tuesday Nanaimo flight to Sault Ste Marie via Vancouver & Toronto due to weather.
One alternative that was offered was to catch a 6pm Tuesday flight and then a red eye to Toronto and who [...]
Clear Your Roadblocks eNewsletter | December 2009
December 11, 2009 by Simon · Leave a Comment
Welcome to the December 2009 and 5th Anniversary edition of our Clear Your Roadblocks E-Newsletter and Leading Advisor Web Site.
What if after fourteen years since the inception of the internet, you have not invested in a web presence via a web site, e-newsletter, blog, FaceBook, LinkedIn or Twitter? According to Seth Godin, it will only take you about a year to catch up.
I’m no different than you. There are days when I am fueled by inspiration and fooled with desperation and the belief that I have too much to do.
“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.” – Warren Buffet
While we are ranked on page one on Google search engines for financial advisor coach, financial advisor coaching, financial advisor speaking, investment advisor coach, investment advisor coaching and investment advisor speaking, it would not take all that long to lose this ranking and the inspiration that e-marketing helps to create.
Perhaps 2010 will be the year for you to understand that committing to building a web presence will help you to find your voice and assist you to develop your vision, business plan, marketing plan, brand, unique selling proposition and become a recognized expert within the niche that you choose. If you were me, you would be lucky enough to receive a call like this from a complete stranger that says “I’ve been reading your blog and your e-newsletter, I have $120,000,000 under management and I want to grow my practice to $150,000,000.
I believe that your web presence has got to be a part of your vision for 2010 and beyond because if your prospective clients can’t find you on Google, FaceBook, LinkedIn or Twitter, notice that I said OR … you don’t have to do them all, then you may not exist in their minds.

The Only Swine Are The Government And The Media

The only thing that is going to make me sick is constantly hearing conflicting information about H1N1 … and I am so sick of it.
No sooner do I read good news like this headline and very promising article by Tom Blackwell in the Friday, November 6th edition of The National Post; H1N1 Nears Peak: Experts [...]
