the most unique and awesome soccer ad from Nike

This is an ad made by Nike named Take Tt to the Next Level which I think should win the prize for the best commercial of the year. This ad is viewed from a made up soccer player who starts his career in arsenal and goes through many hardships to finally be a member of Netherlands national team. Here you can see Wayne Mark Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo, William Gallas, Zlatan Ibrahimović , Marco Materazzi and others!

This is my new favorite ad from Nike. My old favorite one was one that said "yesterday you said tomorrow."

How To Stop Procrastinating

How To Stop Procrastinating
Step1
Think about why you procrastinate: Are you afraid of failing at the task? Are you a perfectionist and only willing to begin working after every little element is in place? Are you easily distracted?
Step2
Break up a large, difficult project into several smaller pieces. Tackle each piece separately.
Step3
Set deadlines for completion. Try assigning yourself small-scale deadlines ' for example, commit to reading a certain number of pages in the next hour.
Step4
Work in small blocks of time instead of in long stretches. Try studying in one- to two-hour spurts, allowing yourself a small break after each stint.
Step5
Start with the easiest aspect of a large, complex project. For example, if you're writing an academic paper and find that the introduction is turning out to be hard to write, start writing the paper's body instead.
Step6
Enlist others to help. Make a bet with your family, friends or co-workers that you will finish a particular project by a specified time, or find other ways to make yourself accountable.
Step7
Eliminate distractions or move to a place where you can concentrate. Turn off the television, the phone ringer, the radio and anything else that might keep you from your task.

easy way to learn business terms

I've always thought that using analogy and jokes is the best way to learn and this is an easy and unforgettable way to learn and understand business terms.

You see a gorgeous girl at a party.

You go up to her and say, "I am very rich. Marry me!"

That's Direct Marketing.

-------------------------------------------------------

One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says,

"He's very rich. Marry him."

That's Advertising.

You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink.

"By the way, I'm very rich. Will you marry me?"

That's Public Relations.
