Inner Game Superhero
Weird Joke Teller I’ve had this really weird friend since elementary school. He’s got this really, really deadpan sense of humor.

Trading Fear For Money
Horrible Horror Movie I saw this really messed up horror movie the other night. It was about this guy who was an insane killer, that pretty much lived inside of a hallucination. It started out with this guy jogging down some country road. And then a guy pulled up in a van, […]
Toothless Nightmare
How Many Cavities So the other day I went to the dentist. I hadn’t been to the dentist in a long long time. Normally this hasn’t been so bad. Occasionally I would get these pains in my teeth. Usually they would go away in a couple days. While I have the pain I would […]

The Power of Pacing Objections
Getting people to do what you want is a tough job. It doesn’t matter if you’re getting your kids to clean their rooms, getting that number from that cute girl, or making that huge sale that will catapult your commissions into the stratosphere.
