I saw your inquiry on the Blogger Help Group - Coffee Shop concerning the title of your blog. I personally like it, because I remember Studebakers. I seriously doubt younger bloggers will appreciate all that comes with that image.<BR/><BR/>I too like blog hopping, although I call it blog surfing, using the Next Bar feature in the Nav Bar at the top of blooger.com blogs.<BR/><BR/>I occasionally just visit other blogs simply out of curiosity. I am continually surprised at the creative manner in which people all over the globe express themselves, and their particular interests.

Seriously.<BR/><BR/>Love your blog - and you are following some great ones. Try www.beingmiss.blogspot.com as well. It's another wry British look at life, like MyWritersBlock on Prozac.<BR/>hahaLesleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17726995606953732736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4249300181335376357.post-26520520177265435862009-01-14T20:21:00.000-06:002009-01-14T20:21:00.000-06:00Great second lesson: I believe it was Charles Schw...Great second lesson: I believe it was Charles Schwabb who asked a consultant how much he would charge to help him (and his company) be more efficient. The consultant said, "I will tell you how to be more efficient and in one month, you send me a check for how much you think it was worth." One month later, the consultant received a check for a VERY hefty sum. What the consultant told him was, "Before you go home from work, write down the three most important things that need to be done the next day. The next day, start with the hardest task, do it until it is done, then go on to the next thing and repeat until you are done with all tasks." That's it! Schwabb instituted this simple training company-wide and we all know where he ended up. *Note: this story is coming from memory (I think I read it in Dale Carnegie's "How To Win Friends and Influence People"), so it could be off on some details - sorry, my memory's not that good.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I will definitely follow your blog (I also love my-writersblock's blog - I'm glad you found that one).<BR/><BR/>And check out my fiancee and my blog when you have a chance: <A HREF="http://ksquaredcomfort.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Ksquared Comfort</A>K2Comforthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16452184023007235319noreply@blogger.com
