Ask the Right Questions to get the Right Results

November 9, 2015 by Scott "Q" Marcus Leave a Comment

If you’re not happy with the results, maybe you need to change the question.

One reason so many people lose weight — and then unhappily put it back on again — is because they ask of themselves the wrong question.

They ask themselves the wrong question, “How long will it take?”

What Can we Learn from the Golden Voice Homeless Man?

January 6, 2011 by Scott "Q" Marcus

I've been monitoring the whole Ted Williams (homeless man with the golden voice) story and I have to admit I'm sucked into it.

I found myself crying with joy over his newfound "Susan Boyle" discovery. But my question is "Why?"

I don't mind feeling the way I do. And as I posted previously, we respond to feelings, not logic. However, what is the deep connection that so many of us are feeling about this story? I know we would not connect as well if he had not had such a tough life – but he also brought that upon himself (which I say without judgment). If he was not humble, we wouldn't relate either. So, I know it's about overcoming obstacles and being your better self – but I think there's more to it.

I welcome comments. I want to continue with this story.
