The Moustache Brothers are a comedy group that works in Burma. Because they keep telling jokes against the Junta, they get arrested. One of the brothers spent seven years in prison.The only reason they are not locked up for good, or executed is the world attention and publicity.That’s why they ask all the viewers in their show to keep talking about them.
They are only allowed to perform in front of tourists and in their salon.

i like the ratio idea.
i think the need to make things different, to change the world, not to accept things as they are, is a big part of the drive
lately, i have noticed that even people with little ego and great need to ‘change’ the world, need recognition
again, the ratio idea to characterize personality types is great in my opinion

Great post

So what makes one’s drive, the will to explore and invent or the will to be recognized? it could be both, the quantity of each of them and the ratio between them could be a way to characterize personality. {Is it nonsense or agelt}

FF is nice, especially for the family, which often makes the greatest sacrifice during a business trip
my motivation in writing is frustration
frustration in:
-how little even face to face meeting achieve.
-the frequent travel which creates a discrete life pattern as opposed to a continuous life which i think relates highly to happiness.
-the overall poor travel experience, door to door. think how little it has improved over the last 35 years. i think it has even gotten worse
- the lack of real alternatives. voice conferencing and even video conferencing is way behind where we expected it to be. 20 years ago, where did we think both voice and video will be?

Impressive numbers indeed.
In this virtual world it is still hard to beat face to face, in many cases.
I used to Fly ElAL in Check Point. Now I do Continental.
The only good thing about ElAl was the food and maybe the FF program.
Now that continental is part of Star Alliance , it seems they would be even more useful. Why would you want to change ?

Anyway, I guess the real difference is Business Vs Coach

Great tips as always. Thanks!

How do you deal with ‘teasing’ questions? for example:
1. when you know that the purpose of the questions is to scorn or even disqualify you or your idea.
2. when you know that the purpose of the questions is to test your reaction to this kind of questions.
