Yesterday’s Christmas gift from jungle jeff to you was probably not what you expected, was it?
Tough love is what our son’s Kindergarten teacher called it.
A college roommate that became a US Marshal, handling some exceptionally criminal minds, told me that he would sometimes have to tell the people he was “guarding”, “Don’t mistake kindness for weakness.”

The world is full of very competitive people and very competitive businesses. And there’s a phrase, survival of the fittest, that works in nature, and it works in business.
People forget this. Or, they ignore it or deny it.
I can’t. You can’t. No one who wants to be excellent can be unclear of this natural law.
This is why I’m upping the ante at jungle jeff. Not by an unbearable amount, but more than 2009.
Almost forgot, if you trek on over to jeffnoel.org , and read just a few entries, you’ll see a much softer side of tough love.
