Want your lost wallet to be returned? Have a baby picture in it.

Richard Wiseman planted hundreds of wallets around Edinburgh.

50% of all the “lost” wallets were returned

BUT 90% of the wallets that had baby pictures in them were returned

When you show your human side people care more.

A friend asked me why I publicly post personal pictures like the ones from my weekend trips with Olivia on Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. It took me a long time to feel comfortable doing that, but I’m glad that I did. I think people care more about my work now that I talk about my non-work side.

I learned how to mix my personal and business side from this 2-minute clip from a Mixergy interview.
