Business Jazz - 2nd November 2012 - How to Fail Properly

Failure.

It's a scary word for many of us.

For others, it's something to be embraced. They see failures as milestones on the way to success. Failure should be embraced, rather than feared.

This week Paul and Roger discuss failure and how to turn it to your advantage, prompted as usual by an email from Chris Brogan.

To hear the podcast, just click on the play button on the embedded player at the top of this post. We're also in iTunes. We'd love it if you subscribed.

Wow!

Many of you will have found us through the plug that both Chris and AJ Leon gave the podcast in their email newsletters last week. It was an incredible experience for us to receive such boosts from these two remarkable people.

Chris and AJ, thank you. It means the world to us.

Help yourself

If you'd like to subscribe to Chris' emails, you'll find a place to sign up on his website.

If you're interested in The Impact Equation, the book he recently published with Julien Smith, you can find it on Amazon US and Amazon UK.

If you liked the sound of AJ Leon (and we think you probably do), you can connect with him at Pursuit of Everything.

Business Jazz - 19th October 2012 - Keeping Ideas Alive

Ideas - we all have them. Some are fantastic, some less so. Most are never acted on.

In his latest email, Chris Brogan gives you seven steps to help you pick those ideas that are good for you and implement them. Paul and Roger discuss their own experiences of implementing ideas.

During the podcast, you'll hear occasional interference from someone's smartphone. Our apologies. The person responsible (Paul Roger) has been spoken to.

Our news

The podcast is available in iTunes now, making it easier to subscribe to.

If you listen to us on your Blackberry, we have you covered too. We've been accepted into the Blackberry catalogue.

Even better is that the cafe at the Blackrock Castle Observatory has given us our own table beside a fire. You can't imagine a more welcoming place, nor a better "studio" to record in.
