    Ways to improve your company’s security

    Your business, whether it’s functioning on a casual, small-time level, or a highly-sensitive, global scale, most likely holds information that is important to its continued success and operative capabilities.

    Scary travel movies inspired by true events PART II

    When we think about scary travel movies, Eli Roth’s incredibly bloody horror movie Hostel is probably the first thing that pops into your head. But there are many more travel movies that are scarier simply because they are based on real stories. These aren’t the kind of stories about people getting slaughtered, these are the kind of stories that freak you out because you know someone lived it and has survived to tell the story. They’re about people surviving terrible accidents or situations. They’re freaked out by mother nature instead of zombies or murderers. Must watch for travelers, because who knows, you might pick up some survival skills! Somehow, after I watched the Shallows recently, I’m SO into this kind of thrillers, so I decided to collect a few recent ones I saw inspired by true events. And yes, I must admit, they do fuel my wanderlust, often they start in the most beautiful places like Mexico, Hawaii or Australia. Enjoy!

    Holiday gift guide: the perfect gifts to make every type of traveler happy

    We all have the adventurous traveler in the family or as a friend, and in my case, it’s often me. Sure, you can buy awesome travel-related gifts to them, but most of the time, they want to travel light. So what should you buy? Everyone with a serious case of wanderlust can’t think about anything else, so do get them a travel related gift!

    If they just moved, you can get something cute with a map design for their house. Or if they have a luxurious holiday coming up, get that towel harness (this one is awesome!) because they probably have space for it in their suitcase. But if you’re looking for a gift for a long-term traveler, give them something they can use on the road and that doesn’t take up space in their backpack. For every traveler there is something, and I have made a selection of my favorite items just for you.   (more…)

    7 compelling reasons why you need a tablet with you on the road

    They’re not as compact as a phone, but they don’t have the processing power of a computer. Why has the world gone crazy for tablets?

    These strange hybrid inventions have taken over the world. Children are using them. Businessmen are using them. With many models to choose from, it’s a competitive market.

    Habits of wealthy & successful people: use them in your advantage

    Have you ever wondered how some people get so rich? What is it that allows a person to earn five, ten, fifty thousand pounds a day? The lazy answer is that they exploited a load of people and trod on their own mother’s neck to get to where are. But that isn’t a helpful answer to the question. More often than not it’s because they have certain money habits that help them make it to the top.

    So what are they? (more…)

    Massive time waster! Do you really have time that course or webinar? (+ introducing the masterclass)

    Let’s start with a question: do you really have time for that course, free e-mail course of webinar? I don’t think so to be honest! As a productivity master I noticed that (new/aspiring) business owners and entrepreneurs sign up to EVERYTHING, because you know, free information!
