There is no downside to having fun. People like to have fun and
they want to be around those who are fun. Fun doesn't care about
age, sex, title, income, education, successes, health, religion, or
nationality. Fun is networking with strangers or closing a new
deal. It's meditating alone on the beach or screaming your lungs
out in a stadium filled with 65,000 of your closest rabid friends.
Fun is watching your kids play at the park or jogging on the trail
with your dog. Fun is, well, just fun. The Wickedly Fun Dictionary
of Business was conceived from my programs, "You'll Always Be Happy
If You're Having Fun - How to Make (Almost) Anything Fun" and "What
Bosses Want: True Believers." fun, n. Something you not only like
to do, but want to do because of the challenge, excitement, or
entertainment. The more fun you have, the more you do. The more you
do, the quicker you learn. The quicker you learn, the better you
get. An unexpected bonus: you're never discouraged when you're
having fun. This book uses humor to share lessons about business,
life, and beliefs because humor is the truth sneaking up on
tiptoes. But I've included some definitions that are plain silly
just for the fun of it. Think of them as the Krispy Kremes you
would sneak into the nutritional food group. Russell Wilson,
Seattle's Super Bowl XLVIII quarterback, said his belief in
"impossible" contributed to helping the Seahawks win their first
ever championship in only his second year in the league.
"Appointment" has a startling discovery by a Milwaukee salesman
that shows why you may not get invited back for that second
interview. "Details" has a life lesson from the chairman of Zales
that shows regardless of your experience and education, if you do
this one thing you will have an edge on 95% of those you're
competing against. Why a dictionary? Words fascinate me, and
definitions require simplicity and clarity. Here's what
psychologists say about men, women, and words: men are stingy with
their words and strive to be specific with the ones they choose.
Women not so much. Men take words literally. Women don't. Men cut
to the chase. Women - tell me more. Men favor detached, unemotional
words. Just the facts, ma'am. Women use words to plumb the depths
of their feelings. Ewww The Wickedly Fun Dictionary of Business is
a G-rated quick read while being fun and funny (somewhat). It's a
hand lifting the veil from the words we use to reveal the thoughts
we don't want others to see. You don't need to read the book from
cover to cover. When you need a diversion, when you need a laugh,
when you're looking for a business idea, open it to any page and
surprise yourself with what you find. There are over 1200
definitions and over 600 business ideas and inspirational quotes.
There's something for everyone, whether you own or work for a
business, whether you're in sales or service, or whether you're
looking for work or travel for work. For business owners, sales
managers, salespeople, and marketing executives there's a
surprising referral strategy in the Appendix if you'd rather not
cold call to find new business.
