One of the questions we get all the time is, “Why are there 2 g’s in BIGG?” We’ll answer that question and how it applies to the true measures of success in this week’s show.
We often joke about this – the best one is that G’s finger stuttered when we bought the domain. But BIGG is an acronym with a BIGG meaning – too BIGG for just one G.
BIGG success is for entrepreneurs of all flavors. Even if you never plan to own your own business, you are the entrepreneur in charge of a very important enterprise – your life. This is why having an entrepreneurial mindset applies to everyone.
The acronym has 4 letters that, together, help you create value for yourself while adding value in the lives of others. That’s just what entrepreneurs of all varieties do.
Let’s go to “The Professor’s” whiteboard for: The 4 measures of BIGG Success.
Happy Thanksgiving! Not only is it a wonderful day for family, food, and fun – it also kicks off the most wonderful time of the year, as originally sung by Andy Williams
Thanksgiving is often considered a selfless act. Of course, when done right, it is. It is often thought of as self-reflective. It’s passive. No – Thanksgiving is active. Even when your body is still, your mind is in motion. It creates an emotion.

It’s software which helps you gain more confidence, clarity and choices when it comes to your money.
We talked more about this on The BIGG Success Show today. Here’s a summary of that discussion…
Financial freedom. What does it mean to you? Never mind that for now, we’ll talk about that next time. It’s the “what”.
Today, we want to share with you the “why”. Because the Financial Freedom Tool is more than just a software program. It’s a device to help you do more good.
But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. Let’s start at the beginning…

Michael Bailey recently wrote a post about an e-mail you may have received before. It was very timely and got us thinking about events of 2008. Let’s test your memory …
Who won the World Series? We know it was NOT the Chicago Cubs. Will that ever happen? The Philadelphia Phillies won it this year. Maybe baseball’s not your thing, so let’s try this one …
Who won the Super Bowl last year? The New York Giants.
What movie won the Oscar for best film?No Country for Old Men.
___
I have to admit that I haven’t seen this movie. On the other hand, I don’t have a country either!

___
You aren't an old man either…yet!

Who topped the Forbes 400 this year? Warren Buffett overtook Bill Gates to be named the richest person in the world. Of course, this was long before the recent financial turmoil. We’ll see how he rates this next year.
Who was the American Idol? You may say, “Who cares?” You may not, but millions do. It was David Cook.
So how did you do? We found it interesting that we didn’t really remember many of these events without some prodding.
The surprising list of the most important people of 2008
We had to look many of these up. For example, as soon as we realized the Giants won the Super Bowl, we could picture in our minds the pass from Eli Manning, escaping the nearby defenders, to David Tyree, who caught the ball on top of his helmet. That catch allowed the Giants to keep the drive going that ultimately lead to the winning touchdown.
As we discussed it, we realized there are people who you remember without having to really think about it. So here are a few questions for you to think about to help discover the most important people of 2008:
Name a friend who helped you through a difficult time in 2008. They deserve a toast!
Name a person who taught you something worthwhile in 2008. Roll out the red carpet for them!
Name someone who made you feel special in 2008. Give them a bigg party horn toot!
Name a person who you particularly enjoyed spending time with in 2008. Reach out and touch them – figuratively, not literally!
This list is not exhaustive. Feel free to add categories. But you get the point – in spite of the fact that there are people who accomplish bigg things, who excel in their chosen field, we often don’t remember it.
It’s the people who affect us individually that we remember. We recall those little acts of kindness, that one-to-one help, individual caring and sharing. These things may seem small and inconsequential, but they’re not because they affect us personally.
So here’s one more question: Who would put you on their list?
We do! You’re on our list of the most important people of 2008 because you take time to check in on us. We thank you so much and wish you a peaceful, prosperous, and happy New Year! Here’s to your bigg success in 2009!

It’s the day after Christmas. Here in the United States, that means the customer service lines are long as people return their gifts. In other parts of the world – Australia, Britain, Canada, and New Zealand – it’s Boxing Day.
If you’re not familiar with it, you might suspect that there’s fist-a-cuffs over gift exchanges! But Boxing Day is a tradition of giving gifts to people who are less fortunate.
We don’t want to leave the impression that we think us Yanks are Scrooges. A lot of people here are very generous throughout the holiday season. But we think Boxing Day is an interesting tradition, truly in tune with the spirit of this time of the year.
We found a great story about a mom who taught her son about the value of giving. We’ll hit the highlights here. It’s written from the son’s point-of-view.
