I really enjoyed your article, John. Absolutely, positively loved it, in fact.

Kid,
Thanks Trevor, we have exciting news coming out soon. Hope to see you back in SoloLearn soon.
We usually think of temptation as something that, if followed through, is wrong or inappropriate. It’s the external force that holds power over us and as a result, we do things that we rather not.

The use of a checklist in any complex activity is absolutely essential. Having come from that same group of people Aaron and Bean were a part of, and going into private industry, I am floored at the waste generated by mistakes. Mistakes that could have been avoided if someone properly used a checklist. i.e. when you…

Well. It’s finally time to admit that my time in Utah is coming to an end. I’m leaving in just under 3 weeks (still trying to get a flight for mid-November). We did not make playoffs, unfortunately, so it’s time to go for me. I’m very excited to get home, eat Chinese food, show my mom all the…

I absolutely agree with the idea that we can’t really multi-task. My ex was always telling me she could — well, actually that women can and men can’t. Anyone who has ever tried to run Photoshop while watching an instructional video, knows how much their computer slows.

There’s a lot of sameness on the internet. I am nostalgic sometimes for when everything you read or saw was unique. Of course, everything is unique in and o itself, but the idea was that you could find ideas outside of what you already knew, presented in ways you’d not seen before.

At some point YOU must reconcile your role in the problems you encounter — if you desire reduction. Intent is irrelevant; paramount is action. As a snark and sarcasm expert, I've created many of my own issues. Well, not all.. see how silly that sounds, back to my point. To the unknown, i’m the…
The world of our dreams is as real and physical as the physical world. By saying that the world of dreams is physical I mean it is physically created out of the magnetic field energies that surround the earth. It has a physical basis or energetic basis.

日前收看馬雲的演說,他談到未來的世界是屬於年青人的,我十分同意,但對年青人的定義和他不同。我認為年青是一種心態及態度,不只是身體的機能。因為現在醫學倡明,活到五六十歲身體各方面仍然很年青健康,其實用世衞的定義60歲才是新中年,更有不少健康、抗衰老,甚或逆轉衰老的產品,幫大家改變細胞基因。除了健康長壽,智慧在五六十歲也是最高峰,舊式理論對中老年的定義根本就和現代脫節,但態度決定一切。
就像年前我曾請一位大學畢業不久的初級業務發展主任,他給我的感覺表面很有幹勁,但工作下來原來只懂練精學懶,二十多歲已經常遲到早退,做事也得過且過,原來晚上他不是和女朋友遊玩,就是做…
