I’ve always worked better while having CNBC in the background, it makes me feel more professional for some reason. I see all of those traders on the New York Stock Exchange moving millions of dollars worth of equity and it motivates me to work harder so I could one day be the investor they are [...]

Today I met a fellow entrepreneur at his “day job”, this was a first for me. A day job and entrepreneurship never really occurred to me as something that could exist simultaneously, amazing. This fellow entrepreneur shared with me that getting a job does not necessarily mean that you have to quit being an entrepreneur, but instead have found [...]

Just read “The One Minute Manager” by Ken Blanchard & Spencer Johnson. The book is a must read and has already begun to help me in my business and in my personal life. Everything comes down to thinking about the other person, but not spending too much time managing them. Instead of “watching” them all [...]

First off, don’t pick a card just because it’s “cute”, there are many factors to consider when picking out the perfect card for someone. Consideration #1: who is the Christmas card for, co-worker, family member or friend? If it’s a family member, then you are ok regardless of what you pick because they’ll appreciate the [...]

It’s that time of year and everyone is worrying about what presents to get for their friends and family. Personally, I think that a heartfelt Christmas card goes a long way. You would be surprised as to how good you can make someone feel with just a few scribbles on a card letting them know [...]

Things have been hectic over the past few days with the holiday shopping season creeping up and the bongo team working as hard as possible to get the site ready for the upcoming wave of traffic. On a more positive note, I’ve learned a bit about myself and what I’m good at as an entrepreneur. [...]

Myself and all of the BongoBing team now feel as if we live at the Blank Center. Work starts at 8am everyday with a company-wide (there are three of us) meeting on what our goals for the day are. We discuss our tasks each morning, while on our way to starbucks for that life [...]
