Two Words: Portland Oregon

I'm moving my son Brandon to Portland, OR. It's a bittersweet trip; lots of time in the car on the way up here,  but I'm driving home alone. However, after 5 1/2 years, he's moving in with his long term girlfriend. I went out to dinner with them; they're very excited. I'm so happy for them. It makes it worthwhile. They're a great couple.

As always, wherever I stay, I post a photo of the hotel. Here's the Radisson at the Portland Airport. Pretty nice.

Two Words: Middlefork Ranch

My wife and I are back from our little getaway where we went to Middlefork Ranch on the Smith River (www.smithriverretreat.com). What a great place to do nothing -- which is exactly what we did. These are pictures from our cabin.

Hard to get back to the real world...

Two Words: Back Home

As much as I love what I do -- and as great as the audiences have been the last two weeks -- there's nothing quite like coming home.

Two Words: Being Dad

It sucks...except for the parts that don't. (from Battlestar Galactica ... But I'll take the inspiration anywhere I can get it).

Scott “Q” Marcus, founder, publisher, and editor of Two Words magazine has a three-decade career in the media as a DJ, talk show host, Music Director, Program Director, Operations Director and later: sales manager, station manager, and general manager of various radio and TV stations. He also produces marketing seminars at www.HumboldtMarketingSeminar.com and is a sales and marketing consultant for the Northcoast Small Business Development Center.

Two Words magazine is associated with http://www.LongDistanceMarketing.com, his blog about all things marketing. The magazine is a creative, literary piece designed to uplift and inspire its readers. It is comprised of several articles, written by various people. Each issue is dedicated to a two-word theme (hence the clever title, huh?) If you would like to submit to Two Words magazine, please visit www.TwoWordsMagazine.com and read the submission standards.

Scott Q's Background:
In 1994, Scott lost 70 pounds and became a THINspirational Speaker (and recovering perfectionist). He now helps individuals and organizations overcome procrastination and perfectionism to be happier, healthier, and more productive. He is the past president of the Northern California chapter of the National Speakers Association, a Weight Watchers Diamond Leader, and a syndicated columnist with three books (at www.CompletelyInspired.com )

His presentations are described as “a cross between Business 101, Group Therapy and a Southern Revival.” He strongly suggests that in order to get the most of his presentation, you put your left-brain on hold.
Finally, although he has lost a great deal of weight and is a Weight Watchers leader, he is not a “food cop.” He will not watch what you eat if you do not watch what he eats. (Although he might be persuaded to do a seminar in your city in exchange for Chocolate or French Fries.)
