Katy Perry's 'Save As Draft' Brilliantly Captures the Struggles of Blogging
Barring her unforgivable 2007 disgrace “Ur So Gay,” I’m a pretty big fan of Katy Perry. “Hot ‘N Cold” is one of my favorite pop songs of the new century, everything on 2010's Teenage Dream makes me want to drop what I’m doing and run to a karaoke bar, and I will preach the gospel of Prism (Deluxe Edition)’s second half (tracks 9-16) until my dying days.

Other Bloggers Are Not Your Competition
Think about the more traditional business environment. Think about how capitalism is supposed to work. You’ve got Coke and Pepsi. You’ve got Apple and Microsoft. You’ve got Toyota and Ford. It’s perfectly understandable to expect the executives working at one of these brands to look upon the other company as competition.

I hear people say, “Well, how do I get in the New York Times?” or “How do I get that meeting with that CEO?” and often times, I just say, “One is better than zero.” Now this might catch you off guard, but let me explain. The concept around one is better than zero is simply a call to action to do. It’s understanding that one view is better than zero and that humility and patience is the foundation for success.
