Being an ‘A’ Player
Soaring with Eagles A friend of mine has always had great ‘luck’ in her career. She was recruited early, ended up as a leader in her group, was re-recruited for a new leadership position and then promoted again. Next, came the transfer to a higher position and now is regularly meeting amongst some of her [...]
Be good at what you do and play nice
Over my many years working for a large company, the one thing that I have learned above all else is the importance of managing your reputation. Now, by saying this, I do not mean that you need to become everyone’s friend – far from it. The importance of having a wide range of friends is [...]
If the World Ends 6 Days from Now…
I found an interesting website through twitter today and it made me think about a few things. The website is for a group who honestly believe that the world is going to end on May 21, 2011. The actual date was predicted by a guy named Harold Camping who is President and General Manager of [...]
What’s Your Peak Time?
My career is a pretty standard 9-5 (which usually goes 7-5) with some flexibility in my weekly schedule. I usually work from my home office once per week and have an offsite client meeting once a week as well. The problem is that this is not an ideal schedule for me to produce in my [...]
Taking Time to Think
I’ve been re-reading The 4-Hour Work Week and I realized that I’ve spent the last few years rushing through life and not really taking time to think! Although 2008 to 2011 have been my best years ever, I really feel like I have drained my energy and have sometimes left very little for myself (personal [...]
Dow to hit 10,000. Why?
As I’ve watched the markets claw their way back from the brink of disaster I’ve begun to wonder what’s causing the market to rise. As I posted yesterday, the true US unemployment rate may be as high as 20%, the credit markets are almost non-existent, mortgage defaults increasing and (although I think it’s a great [...]
Unemployment now over 20%
I just came upon an interesting website that shows the Shadow Statistics from those officially reported by the government. This site says that we are actually in a period of much larger deflation (according to the CPI) than reported and that the current unemployment rate is actually at about 20% (not the 9% reported in [...]
The Great Depression Ahead?
It’s a great read that goes through the many cycles (decentential business cycles, consumer spending cycles, innovation cycles) related to the current economy. Quick summary: we’re heading into a depression and real estate bust.
Which direction are we heading?
The markets have come up from their March lows but there is still a wild ride ahead. Depending on who you believe, we’ve either moved through this recession and have “turned the corner” into a new bull market run or we’ve just experienced a larger than expected bear market rally that should crash down by the end of 2009.
Elliot Wave Theory
The Elliot Wave Theory was discovered by Ralph Nelson Elliott back in the 1920s. The theory is based on identifiable and reptitive market movement in the stock market (“waves”) similar to the ranges identified by Fibonacci Retracements.
