I quote Blaise Brosnan a lot and I've attended a couple of his paid courses over the past 10 years.

I'll watch this later but knowing Blaise I'm happy to share it unseen.



EDIT: Just watched/listened to it. Great stuff as expected.

Example: Someone asked if/when they should chase up on people who owe them money. Blaise's response (paraphrased) was that:
  1. The crying child gets the milk.
  2. It's your money, just in the wrong account.
  3. Don't be apologetic.
