The need to write that Vision down.


How to Get an MBA in Life


Now we have some basic theory, how might this work out in practice? How would you formulate a vision statement for yourself? This might require far more examination, but if you start with a basic statement, you could continue to refine it as you went further through the process. So, you would ask how you see herself, or how would you like to see herself in the near future. Your personal vision statement might state that you want.
 

The importance of this cannot be underestimated and it is important to give some thought to these matters. But merely thinking about them is insufficient. You have to write this down. This creates a permanent record of what you really intended and at least initiates the action process. Thoughts without actions are merely good intentions. Sort of like the New Year’s resolutions. Good intentions abound, but rarely are they implemented. Here we want to implement those intentions.

 

You could buy yourself one of those large black diaries to keep your inner most thoughts, or you could create a few personal files in the computer and password protect them if you are not in the mood for sharing at this time. The best approach would be to create a blog. Go on the Internet and start your own blog that can be either personal or public, but still maintain your own privacy.

 

This blog approach addresses a number of issues. Publicizing your thoughts is one of the better ways to make sure you come through on your promises.  Telling people that you are going to lose 10 pounds or that you intend to run the marathon gives you added incentive to make sure these intentions actually happen. Once you have advertised the fact, people sense that you are going to be comfortable in discussing the matter and will most likely ask you about your continued progress. So using one of the blog sites gives you access to a large potential audience that would like to comment and see about your progress. Of course by using simply your personal computer, you can engage in revisionist history and merely delete certain aspirations that you no longer want to live up to. But using a blog, deletions after the fact might be noticed. The same problem existed with a written diary. Whiteout (that’s essentially white paint that they used on actual paper to brush over words that were not wanted) was also noticeable.
At the very least, you will have updated your computer skills.

Conducting a Character Home Tour

Conducting a Character Home Tour Our neighborhood association encourages residents to conduct house tours once a year as a fundraiser. Eager sightseers normally came in couples. So as to not generalize interest between the various genders, I will simply use gender neutral identifiers and name the people interested in the architecture “wives” and those feigning interest in the tour “husbands”. We presently own a historic character home. Apparently, no one ‘has’ a character home due to the permanent nature of such a home and the ephemeral nature of owners. These homes have their own nature and personalities and you ignore them at your peril. My wife searched for a home that would allow us to merge our household and her parents. Her mother was elderly and had arthritis while the father cared for her. The home’s 12 by 2 inch fir joists easily accommodated the weight of four fridges, four washer dryers and three hot water tanks.     I accepted the delegated ta...

Cars: an unrequited love affair

Cars: an unrequited love affair Most people love cars. So much of our persona can be wrapped up in the way we transport ourselves. Most males fondly remember their first vehicle. Even if it was a piece of turd. If you had a turd in high school, you were the boss. The Sunbeam Alpine became my first vehicle. Fire engine red with fins and a 1600 cc engine. An elastic held on the front bumper. Stopping suddenly meant that the bumper bounced up and down a few times. I cannot remember why I used an elastic. It was likely an emergency fix and it was all that I had around. Inertia prevented me from replacing the elastic with some wire which would have been a far better fix. I purchased a spirometer that allowed me to ensure the volume intake of both carburetors balanced perfectly. I did this religiously without knowing if this made any difference at all. It did not matter since I attended to what I perceived its needs were. We made each other complete. English cars do not fare w...

GoogleLaw and Creative Destruction of the Legal Profession

GoogleLaw and Creative Destruction of the Legal Profession Google and Artificial Intelligence may not be the end of the legal profession, but boy, can you see it from here. I anticipate encountering what Schumpeter euphemistically called creative destruction. Innovation destructs archaic business models and creatively releases capital to be deployed elsewhere. A benign description of being out on the street with your law degree. Perhaps too hyperbolic, but for example Google has made a database of Federal and State case law and legal journal articles available via its  Google Scholar  search.  In their defense, lawyers can now purchase on Amazon the “ Please Do Not Confuse Your Google Search With My Law Degree” coffee mug.  For a simpler DIY approach, YouTube displays over 146 videos on Family Law. This also includes shuffle playlist for greater variety. For comparison, A.I. factors into over 38% of regular enterprise planning for mainly customer int...
