Thursday Thought #LisaJohnson
If anybody has ever said to you, “Can I pick your brain?”
Lisa Johnson
that really means “Can you write an ebook that I can buy?”
Wednesday Words
How many words can you make from these letters? Make words of any length, but use each letter no more than once per word. (If a letter is on the board twice you can use it twice.) Share your word lists in the comments.

In two sentences tell me what you have learned about marketing recently.
Martin Luther King Jr. Day
To honour Martin Luther King Jr. today and every day, please support education and the fight against propaganda.
To save man from the morass of propaganda, in my opinion, is one of the chief aims of education. Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fiction.
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
The Purpose of Education
Monday Muddle: every day, everyday
every day: (quantifier + noun) each day; all daysIf putting “single” between “every” and “day” makes sense, you need a space. everyday: (adjective) ordinary; routine; commonplace; average Might describe something that happens every day, but not necessarily.

Thursday Thought #WarrenBuffett
Invest in yourself. The one easy way
~Warren Buffett
to become worth 50 percent more than
you are now at least is to hone your
communication skills–both written and
verbal. If you can’t communicate, it’s like
winking at a girl in the dark–nothing
happens. You can have all the brainpower
in the world, but you have to be able to
transmit it. And the transmission is
communication.
