What's affecting me, my clients, my colleagues and other global small business owners:

• Global shipping trends for 2020.
• The coolest artificial intelligence announcements from CES 2020. 
• Quote of the week: “People who succeed have momentum. The more they succeed, the more they want to succeed, and the more they find a way to succeed.  Similarly, when someone is failing, the tendency is to get on a downward spiral that can even become a self-fulfilling prophecy." – Tony Robbins
• Unveiling a vision for 2030 – Facebook, and there's no focus on Libra.
• Next frontier?  Drones.
• The chief legal officer of Google parent Alphabet Inc., David Drummond, is leaving the company amid an investigation into his relationships with employees of the global search-engine giant.  New job?  Retirement.
