Book Review: The Compound Effect: Jumpstart Your Income, Your Life, Your Success
Mar 14, 2012
Published 2010
Vanguard Press
E-Reader and Audio Editions Available
If you attended last week's MFG (Manufacturing For Growth) Meeting in Orlando, Fla., last week, you probably heard Darren Hardy talk about the productivity strategies of superachievers. After the Saturday keynote session at the meeting, the buzz was all about his message: small changes can create huge differences in outcomes. His presentation was based on his 2010 book, The Compound Effect, in which he asserts it's your habits and choices that make the difference. Even if you didn't get fired up over the topic at the MFG Meeting, reading or listening to his book will certainly motivate you to make changes in habits that are sure to make you happier.
Some of Hardy's critics say the content doesn't contain original ideas or a new breakthrough. In reading the book it's apparent that a breakthrough may not be necessary. His strategies are doable. He teaches that you don't have to set an unreachable goal to be successful. Instead, you just need to keep doing the little things — even when the immediate results aren't apparent. One of his analogies is this: Far too many people try exercise or self-improvement for a short period of time and then give up because they are not seeing instant results.
He is clear that it is not the big breakthroughs that are the hallmark of highly successful people. It is the constant, steady striving towards their goals — the ability to go on when others have dropped out — which brings the ultimate success.
This easy-to-read book is motivational, loaded with how-to's and worthwhile, especially if you are one who reaches the end of the day frustrated because you didn't accomplish what you set out to.
Hardy lays out a simple formula in the first chapter: [small, smart choices + consistency + time = RADICAL DIFFERENCE].
The next five chapters of The Compound Effect are dedicated to five simple success strategies:
choices, habits, momentum, influences, acceleration.
He covers each of these strategies in depth and then provides several action steps at the end of each chapter. He includes exercises to help each individual reader identify appropriate actions.
For example, in the first chapter centering on choices, he talks about taking 100% responsibility for the success or failure of your present condition and tells you to write down three things you have done in the past that have derailed you. Then list three things you should have done, but didn't. Identify three things that happened, but to which you responded poorly. And lastly write three things you can start doing right now to take back responsibility for the outcomes of your life.
He methodically walks the reader through habits, momentum, influences, acceleration using the same kind of exercises. The result can be liberating.

Fitting It All In
Posted Nov 17 2012 6:03am
Image credit: Microsoft Clipart
The most common excuse given for not working out or home cooking healthy food is "I don't have time". I can guarantee that in every case there will be someone in the world far busier than the person who says this line and still they will manage to fit in a workout or home cook a meal. The difference between them is not the amount of hours they work, the number of children they have or even the length of their 'To Do' list. The difference between them is that one of the them has made working out and eating healthily a priority.
Chances are, you've gained weight in the first place because you put other people first. Whether this is your kids, partner, boss or friends. You've probably worked through lunch to complete the mass of paperwork your boss dumped on your desk, then felt starving all afternoon and resorted to cramming in cookies or sweets from your desk drawer or even stopped by the nearest fast food outlet on the way home. Perhaps you've been so busy cooking your children's meals after a long day of rushing around for them that you can't be bothered to make yourself something tasty and healthy, so you opt for take-out or a boxed meal. Maybe you're so focused on ticking off the many things on your 'To Do' list that a proper meal or a workout will 'have to wait'.
If any of this sounds familiar and 'acceptable' because your putting other first, then take a moment to reconsider this. Suppose that in the future, you become so unhealthy by continuing this pattern that you can no longer play with your children, you no longer feel like being romantic with your partner because your self esteem has dipped too low, you had to call in sick from work because your immune system has let you down again. You've not got anything ticked off your 'To Do' list because you feel too low and sluggish to get out of bed in the morning to fight the day. In all of these scenarios, you would feel hopeless and guilty for letting people (and yourself) down.
If you don't put your health first, the rest of your life will suffer for it. If you're too ill to carry out your everyday life, you won't be able to be the best parent/employee/partner or friend that you strive to be. You have to prioritise your health needs for the sake of being able to function, it's that simple.
Many people ask me how I fit home cooked meals and the gym in around my masters degree, 3 jobs and a busy social life. This simple answer is I've made the rest of my life adapt to my healthy routine. I'll give some examples: My healthy cooking (i.e. traditional family favourites, but cooked with better ingredients than the store bought equivalent) has been a hit with my family, so when I appear to be coming home from work and cooking dinner for everyone else, what I'm actually doing is cooking multiple portions of the meal I want to eat anyway. It benefits me, but also everyone else. My workouts are scheduled in just the same way as my lectures, meetings, and shifts at work. In my eyes, I'm just as unavailable in the time slot I have the gym scheduled in for as the time slots taken up by my work shifts. This means I generally won't schedule in anything that clashes with my gym classes unless I can justify it by swapping some appointments around - but I rarely cancel them entirely. As for my 'To Do' list, that gets planned in for whenever I have spare time, so after the gym, during a lunch break, or on the bus/train.
Eventually everyone around you gets used to your routine, I've found that many people forget where I'm actually going and just accept without much explanation that I'm busy during a certain time slot on a particular day. For example, my Wednesday mornings have long been blocked off from the world for my swimming time as I have no lectures and I work in the afternoon on Wednesdays- as far as everyone is concerned I'm busy the entire day for whatever reason. My Saturday afternoons and Sunday nights are also blocked off for my usual gym classes so my social life gets planned around this - fortunately, most people stay in on Sunday night and prefer to go out on the Saturday or Friday night so my gym routine doesn't really bother anyone. In fact, you could see it as beneficial to my relationship, for example, often my partner will use this same time as his own time, so he'll get some work done in peace and quiet, or watch something on TV that I probably wouldn't want to watch, or he'll go to Speedway with his friends. It works well and is a healthy way of preserving our own individual identities and space even though we live together.
Whatever you have going on in your life, there will be time slots where you can squeeze in a workout. The most common ones I hear for parents are first thing in the morning, before the kids are awake, or while they're at school or even when they're in bed. It's even common for people to workout with their kids using games or combine their social lives with their workouts, like going out for a run with your friend. You could find loads of people in fitness community boards online who are equally busy or even more so, find out when they fit it all in and use this to inspire you.
You only need to block off 20-60 minutes of time. You deserve it, and everyone in your life needs you to be happy and healthy.

Following multiple health code violations last year, Weld County commissioners on Monday suspended the retail food license for El Pueblito, a Mexican restaurant in Greeley.
The restaurant, at 2435 10th St., can reopen as soon as owners find a food-safety consultant, commissioners said, which normally takes about a day. They waived a $1,000 fine for the violations, asking the owners instead to put that money toward a consultant.
County health inspectors found 18 violations at the restaurant last year, including improper temperatures for food storage, improper storage of personal drinks, bare-hand contact with ready-to-eat food and a quickly terminated instance of a cockroach infestation.
Rosalina Mireles, one of the restaurant's owners, said the citations happened when she and her family returned to Mexico for family business. She it is also sometimes difficult to distinguish between health requirements for the Greeley restaurant and one she owns in Loveland.
"We're not trying to shut you down," said Weld County Commissioner Barbara Kirkmeyer. "We're just trying to get you into compliance."
To keep its license, El Pueblito must also pass another health inspection and have every employee go through a food safety training program.

The white dude is Randall Lawrence, a personal trainer who that day was helping Thomas load exercise equipment into Thomas's raggedy, rusty Fleetwood Cadillac. "Initially it was peculiar that they stopped us," Lawrence says. "But it turned out to be routine."
However, Thomas seems to have good reason to be suspicious of the po-po. A homeless man who calls himself "Low-Key" claims he saw undercover police officers snooping inside the Caddy while Thomas was shopping at the CVS Pharmacy on Lincoln Road two weeks ago. "They asked me: 'Where Silk at?'" says Low-Key.
This past March 19, shortly after 5 p.m. and with New Times riding shotgun, Thomas again parked his Caddy in the CVS lot. Before he could step out, a uniformed Miami Beach Police officer approached the driver's side door. "Gentlemen, are you waiting on something?" the cop inquired. "Do you have your driver's license? Do you have any weapons in the car?"
An astonished Thomas cocked an eyebrow at the officer and handed him his license. "I'm just asking," the cop said. "You have a good day, sir."
Two days later, Thomas was standing with his homeless friend Richard Habersham at the entrance to an alley near the Meridian Market at Sixth Street and Meridian Avenue. Habersham relayed that a plainclothes detective recently had come looking for intel on Thomas. "He asked what Silk be doing," Habersham said. "Asked me if he was serving dope again."
After a few minutes, a Miami Beach cop pulled up and got out of his patrol car. "You need to be careful with him," he said, gesturing to the homeless man. "He's dangerous."
Thomas shook his head in disbelief. "Being in Miami Beach is like being in another country," he seethed. "The laws don't apply here. Probable cause? That shit's out the door."
Meanwhile, Thomas is without a job and growing more agitated every day. "Man, I'm broke," he says. "I don't know how I'm going to pay my rent." He believes the MBPB wants him committing crimes. "They want me out on the streets peddling dope. But I'm not going crawling down that hole again."

have ya'll seen this?
http://video.aol.com/video/tv-desper...cision/2018088 i think the hubby's doing a nice job....making his wife's reasons seem very superficial. i don't even watch this show and I'M interested! oh yeah - and they are bottlefeeding too....not even promoting the breast. |
I have hope that they will leave the baby intact. I've been watching DH since it started and I remember an episode of Lynette nursing her baby girl and also, does anyone remember the episode way back in the beginning that revolved around an employee at Lynette's job that was still nursing her preschool aged child? I think he was about 3 years old. Lynette got him to "wean" after offering him ice cream or something, but I'm pretty sure I remember them showing the little boy nursing, not just talking about it.

God tells man his son should get a sex change and become his wife. http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/16301415/detail.html
Well Wes nothing like a little human interest story news to brighten my day. Now that I read it its even better than i had hoped. Like Harry said the if the old man deserved it he GOT IT.
Good for him, the courts would have done nothing, I hope the old man knew what was happening before the light went out. :bricks:
Pretty sick stuff... seems that this religious extremism is creating quite a few problems lately and might be something that we need to be concerned about.
yes, its all religions fault. lets not let TOTALLY NUTS off the hook, shall we? because we all know they have been no cases of Godless whackjobs.......:bricks:

I am moving into a new home and I know that Dish tells you just to leave your dish and they will come out and install a new one. How does this work? I imagine they charge to come re-install the new stuff. I think I heard there is a way to get it for free but I assume you have to sign another 1 year contract which I don't want to do. Does anyone know what the cost would be for install of 2 rooms in a new home?
In the Dish Mover program you leave the stuff where it is now and take your receivers and remotes with you. When you go to your new home you call your local retailer (preferably the one you purchased your system from) to do the move for you. It costs $25.00 unless you are on credit card or checking account autopay. You must also sign a one year contract for AT60+locals. It covers up to six receivers installed as of recently. I am not sure if this is true or not but I heard that Dish Network is going to start charging for Dish Upgrades (and maybe Dish Movers too) starting next week and it may be $50.00. If someone on the boards knows anything about this then they can correct me or reply to my message. I asked a CSR and he said something about a $50.00 Dish'n It Up promotion starting next week for a 301, 510, 811, or 522 receiver but you cant believe everything that they say.
if your not on CC- auto pay or don't sign up for it or if you don't sign another year contract for Top60, then it is $99
Did a Dish Mover to my new house in August 2004. Didn't pay a thing or commit to anything. They told me I did not even have to go the CC auto-pay route. I do not have cc auto pay, still write a check each month. I even went from one receiver to two so they had to do a little extra work. Of course they make an extra $5 a month off of the extra receiver hookup. I have had top 180 w/locals for about 5 years and have always payed my bill on time so maybe that took into account for something. I think it comes down to luck of the draw on CSR's when you call in.
Someone must not have known what they were doing then if they didnt make you sign a commitment or didnt charge you the $25 fee for no CC autopay. You lucked out.
I just did the Dish Mover and was not told I needed to sign a 12 month contract (although I read otherwise). So perhaps I am lucky. I did this two weeks ago and the installer came out, installed a dish outside on the roof of a well (somehow it had the best reception) and ran direct burial cables to my receivers (two receivers, one is a dual tuner though so 3 lines). Did not get any charge at all, HOWEVER, I did have to sign up for autopay which is fine with me. Also, they left the other dishes in my previous location which is good since I was worried I might have to have payed to have them removed. The installer didn't trench the cables but that is fine since they usually charge extra for that. Regardless, I did feel that I should tip the guy ($20) since that is the only thing I paid for moving.
This right here is all that is needed, for some people to say that they didnt have to pay anything or didnt have to sign a contract to get others to expect the same when an installer comes out to do the upgrade that may need that signature to submit to Dish Network in order to get reimbursed for it.

Speech by UNEP Executive Director at the Opening of the 41st Session of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 24-2-2015 00:00:00
The winning painting, by Sami Khan, 13, of the United States.
This year, the competition focused on the theme of Food Waste in support of UNEP's "Think Eat Save: Reduce your Footprint" campaign. The top eight global winners were awarded last night during a ceremony attended by Kenya's First Lady, H.E. Margaret Kenyatta.
The International Children's Painting Competition has been held since 1991 and has attracted over 3,000,000 paintings from over 100 countries. Participants must be between the ages of 6 and 14. The competition encourages children to focus on particular environmental issues and how these issues affect their communities.
In addition to global winners, six regional winners are awarded each year.
This year, the winners were chosen from over 65,000 entries. The first prize global winner was Sami Khan, 13, of the United States, while the second prize global winner was Ada Maria Ciontu, 13, of Romania.
In addition, six regional winners were chosen:
Europe: Panna Kvell, 13
West Asia: Jancita Travasso, 13
Latin America and the Caribbean: Maria Jose Labastida Albisua, 13
North America: Jiade Guo, 13
Asia and the Pacific: Kandage Kiyara Chenuli Perera, 9
Africa: Dennis Machira Gichuki, 13
One of the goals of the painting competition is to increase environmental awareness and action among children. Winners continue to engage in environmental activities in their schools and communities, encouraging young people around them to make a difference as well.

I am excited because I just ordered my first custom camera bag. The ugly black standard bag I have right now is nice but my gear outgrew it about a year ago LOL. So I got a nice roomy one for not only what gear I have now but what I might add to my collection in the future
This is the bag I got:
What kind does everyone else have?
Right now I have a crappy, UGLY Swiss one that I hate. It's awkward. But, it does the job FOR NOW. If I add anything, I am out of luck!
BUT, the good news is, I have a friend who makes bags, and she said she would make me one. I pick the fabric, the style and how many pockets, and she will make it for me! $55! :O
Let us know how you like it! I've been eyeing Etsy bags for a while now, but decided on a Crumpler 5 Million Dollar Home. It's a little tight in there, but all we could afford at the moment. I like it, but not "in love" with it, if you know what I mean.
I just bought an inexpensive one at Futureshop made by Golla, I would not recommend it and would avoid the brand the main zippers have come off which makes opening and closing the bag difficult.
* Amanda *
I want a couple of bags for mine, I want one that I can put my laptop and my camera with accessories in (including the tripod), I also want a basic bag for just the camera and it's accessories.
* Amanda *
Amy- That is an adorable bag! It looks super functional too!
I just have the Canon one that came with my camera when I bought it. I rarely use it because I don't really have a lot of equipment. I have 2 lenses, 1 body, and some filters. I have a smaller one that can hold my camera with one lens on it plus the extra battery and charger.

Akk Dog
In addition to their incredible strength, akk dogs are rumored to be Force sensitive. In recent years a Jedi named Master Sulan attempted to connect with the creatures through Force-bonding exercises. The Jedi's endeavor was cut short when his Padawan's life was claimed by a particularly hungry akk dog pack leader.

Good.. the left side damage is not too bad. Unfortunately the right side is, but I'm sure it can be salvaged.
That TIP2955 looks suspicious to me... the ST logo does not look right. I'd say it was a fake (though why anyone would fake a 2955 is beyond me!). ST have certainly never made them in that package style - older ones were TO-218 (as the TIP3055 is) and modern ones are TO-247 style. The amp does have all the signs of either having been run into a short, or run excessively loaded which caused output device failure. |

Those are similar to the ones I have here.
ST never seemed to label their transistors two batches alike. But nice job with the "sunny side". How about the essential one?
Sooner or later you end up with TANDBERG |

From looking at the circuit board, it looks like Q11/Q12 and Q111/Q112 have been replaced with the wrong devices - looks like BC546/556 have been used. Evidently these transistors failed and when the guy who did the repair couldnt find FST239/240, he decided to use those.
They are not up to the job unfortunately. ZTX653/753 is the correct replacement. |

I could be wrong and the TIP2955 are genuine, but I cant find any ST datasheet that shows that they made them in a TO-3P package - only the original TO-218 package, and now the more modern TO-247 package. The only versions of them I can find that were made this way, are Chinese copies which are probably inferior quality.
Anyway, they should both have been replaced, IMO. As the repair attempt appears to have failed, I would replace both sets of transistors again to be certain that they are not faulty. The original Q(1)11/Q(1)12 should look much like Q7/Q107 does. This is called the E-Line package. If you can't get the ZTX653/753, I would say BC639/640 could work - but they have a different pinout, so you will have to bend the leads to fit in the right place. |

C16 looks pretty roasted. I would change ALL the electrolytics on BOTH channels.
Change the faulty channel first though as you may need the undamaged channel for fault finding. These ST devices are all genuine.... Last edited by KatieandDad; 1st February 2013 at 01:46 PM. |

Ok...so i do a "short list" and will play safe and replace the following components:
FUSES: 2x FUSE 2A/250v 1x FUSE 630ma T ---------------------------------------- LEFT SIDE: Q13 -> TIP3055 (TO-218) or (TO-247) Q14 -> TIP2955 (TO-218) or (TO-247) --------------- R28 R35 R37 R38 R39 R40 --------------- D1 --------------- C14 C15 C16 --------------- FST239/240 replacement-> ZTX653/753 Q12 Q11 --------------- RV1 -> Iskra 1k ---------------------------------------- RIGHT SIDE: Q113 -> TIP3055 (TO-218) or (TO-247) Q114 -> TIP2955 (TO-218) or (TO-247) --------------- R128 R135 R137 R138 R139 R140 --------------- D101 --------------- C114 C115 C116 --------------- FST239/240 replacement-> ZTX653/753 Q112 Q111 --------------- RV101 -> Iskra 1k ---------------------------------------- I think i don't forgot anything.....and correct me if i'm wrong... Regarding the C14/C114 the original one it's a little different capacitor...do you guys know the original brand from the one int the left side? |

The components are so cheap so I would say yes. Change the lot.
You could change the cooked bits only to miss one failed component only to have to change them all again. You can of course take everything out and test every last component. It's labour intensive but at least you will know that everything is OK. Caps are difficult to test so change them anyway. Last edited by KatieandDad; 1st February 2013 at 02:25 PM. |

No matter how many times we've seen it, watching someone surprise the crowd with an angelic voice on a reality show never gets old.
Linkin Park's commitment to the 'Transformers' franchise has yielded a pretty cool by product as there's now a special edition Linkin Park Transformers action figure. The band is teaming with Loudwire, Noisecreep and Comics Alliance to give you a chance to win this unique figure, signed by Linkin Park DJ Joe Hahn.
Anyone can whistle or sing their favorite Disney song, but for every 'Under the Sea' and 'A Whole New World,' there are dozens of orphaned tunes that never made it into their respective film. Too bad, since many of these unfortunate victims of time constraints or script rewrites are really catchy.
There comes a point in media production when the quality of content is so bad, it's good. This rule definitely applies to the worst album covers ever produced by modern music.
When Drake debuted his evolution from childhood to manhood in an illustration on the Kadir Nelson-designed cover of his third album, 'Nothing Was the Same,' one of the most noticeably detailed aspects of the image is the hairstyles. One cover depicts the rapper as a baby with an afro, while the other artwork showcases the Toronto native with a low fade and deep side part. So what would happen if grown-up Drizzy received a few hair makeovers inspired by the likes of Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber, Lil Wayne, Miley Cyrus and more?

Stephanie Seymour Rocks Her String Bikini and Kisses Reconciled Husband in St. Barts!
Stephanie Seymour joined her kids for a gorgeous day of bikini time on the beach and in the surf in St. Barts yesterday. She looks incredible at 42 and showed off her famous curves in a white two-piece reminiscent of one we saw her wearing on the beach in 2008. Earlier this year Stephanie found herself in the middle of a bitter divorce with her husband Peter Brant, but since then the pair have reconciled and seem to be making the best of their holiday vacation with sons Peter and Harry and daughter Lily. While she's enjoying the tropical breezes of the Caribbean, her fellow supermodel Cindy Crawford celebrated Christmas in Mexico with her family and close pal George Clooney.

I think she looks great, she's aging gracefully. ^ She doesn't need to loose weight, shes not overweight. Even at optimum health some women are just naturally bigger built and have curves, this doesn't make them fat, out of shape or overweight just like being petite and skinny doesn't necessarily make you healthy.

i have no room to talk but i dont think she looks good at all, she needs to lose some weight, especially in the butt. sorry. the boobs dont bother me as much

she looks beautiful as always, one of the most beautiful of all the VS models, but she needs to resize those implants. They age her instead of enhance her.

The lighting of these shots is spectacular! My candids never look this balanced, and of course she looks great.
