		<description><![CDATA[I said before how I am reading (well, listening actually) to Napoleon Hill&#8217;s seminal &#8216;Laws of Success&#8217;. The book truly is amazing. Right now I am on the chapter about developing a pleasing personality. So, to remember the seven steps to doing this I am going to write a sarcastic blog posting, which, while it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am listening to the amazing audio book version of the update revision to this timeless masterpiece. True, it clocks in at around 20 hours, but it is time well worth spent (and you can&#8217;t / shouldn&#8217;t listen to too much at a time, you should let it percolate). If you don&#8217;t know who Napoleon [...]]]></description>

The latest &#8211; and one of the most shocking &#8211; is in the new release of the Lost TV Series. Now that the series is over of course there are some nice [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I watched the incredibly long, 2-part, sales pitch from Rich Schefren over at Strategic Profits. Supposedly Rich is a &#8216;guru&#8217;s guru&#8217; (when it comes to internet marketing I guess, not as in a spiritual guru). So, I made it through the pitch and I have to say there were some things I found interesting. [...]]]></description>
