I'm back!!! I hope none of you were suffering from withfrawal too badly. To make it up to you, this post will be nothing but valuable quotes, books, and videos for your enjoyment!
QUOTES
Yesterday Anne Coulter (right-wing political nut job) was cancelled from speaking at the University of Ottawa. To quote my friend Kirsten Fraser "the solution to Anne Coulter is not to give her what most ignorant tools want... attention." Even negative attention (i.e.: protestors) fuels people like this. How often in life do you give your time, attention, and energy to negative things? As tempting as it is to participate, stay strong, and give energy to the solution. To quote Mother Teresa; "I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there."
"Whatever you think is going to hold you back probably won't, but you'll never know until you try it." - Frank Kern, Internet Marketing Gangsta
"Men [women] are whipped oftenist who are whipped easiest" - Frederick Douglass
BOOKS (3)

A MUST read for anybody in sales or advertising/promotions and an excellent read for anybody else. Learn how you can turn the tables on that car salesman!
Another one I have read a few times. Its super simple, but pure genius in its simplicity.
And of course the mother of all spider killing books when it comes to personal development:
