| Article Title :: The Brain Drain |
| |
|
Am I the only one, or does it seem harder and harder to remember
things?
I remember long ago, somehow I made a barely-conscious decision
to purge useless information from my brain. This was probably to
make room for newer, more exciting information, such as the name
of that cute girl over there or the latest interpretation of the
Special Theory of Relativity.
It was a double edged strategy. I was able to process loads of
new data, but the mundane, such as remembering to wear matching
shoes, suffered.
I moved through life controlled by a CPU which more resembled
RAM (random access, or temporary, memory) as opposed to archival
hard-drive storage. But oddly, I was able to conjure up weird

| Article Title :: The Wisdom of the River : Lessons Learned |
| |
|
Over the past few years I have watched the popularity of
whitewater rafting grip the vacation market. "Strange", I
thought. "Why would floating down a river become such a hotly
contested vacation destination?" Today, I understand this
phenomena completely. There is a wisdom and lesson that only the
river can teach. It is a lesson that I intend to learn as often
as possible.
Whitewater rafting has become one of America's favorite
recreational activities for many reasons. There are several
theories on this but I think the majority of them miss the mark.
The fans argue that what makes the whitewater experience so
compelling, so satisfying, and so incredibly exhilarating is
that it is REAL! Th (read full article) |

this demon once and for all! |

| Article Title :: A Sure Way To Get Lower Worker Productivity |
| |
|
There is a lot of talk these days about the "shoot the moon"
costs associated with college and university expenses. Average
annual raises of 7 to 10 percent are common. In four years the
fees will be 1/3 more than they are right now. Big deal! What
does that have to do with the workers, employees or associates
of any company or corporation? Four years at a state institution
will run from fifty to sixty thousand. Private schools are in
the hundred to hundred and fifty thousand bracket and more.
Most parents, those paying the bills, will deplete their 401k's,
sell real property, cash in life insurance policies, empty
savings accounts, borrow, borrow, borrow, and what may be worse
than any of (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Only Good Guys Look For Jobs? |
| |
|
- Résumé Lies and Half Truths - According to the résumés that
are distributed to large corporations and small businesses, only
good guys look for jobs. This seems to be especially true in the
Information Technology field. You will never see a résumé that
shows that a project was cancelled, or that the programmer was
removed from a project due to his inability to meet the needs of
the company or a client. Instead, the résumé's all show that
only the best of the best are looking for work.
If they are the best of the best - then why are they seeking
work? Why have they had so many different jobs? Why aren't these
companies treating these IT professionals better? Well, the fact
is tha (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Find More Hours In The Day, By Taking Control Of The Ones You
Already Have |
| |
|
I wish I had more time.
How often have you said that to someone?
Some say that time is much more important than wealth. Most
effective people think so and top business leaders mention this
in interviews and biographies. They know how to get more time in
a day, and they have mastered the art of utilizing time
effectively to do more productive things that contribute to
their advancement or success. So how do they do it? What is
different about their time management and ours?
We all have the same 24 hours in a day. Some people do seem to
have more time than others, but no one gets it any differently.
So what is the difference? What can we do to become like them?

| Article Title :: WARNING. Easy Journey Ahead |
| |
|
I am on my way to the quarterly status update with my Sales
Manager. The last quarter has been terribly bad. We reached
nowhere near the Sales target. Naturally, I am moving ahead with
a great resistance and a palpitation rate of the highest order.
I have no idea of what will turn out for me in the meeting.
Fifteen minutes later, I come out of the room. There is a sigh
of relief on my face; a similar _expression can be seen on my
Sales Manager's face. As soon as I come to my cubicle - out of
my Sales Manager's sight, this "sigh of relief" explodes into an
_expression of joy - I DID IT, AND I DID IT AGAIN !!!
I could convince him easily about why the sales couldn't happen

| Article Title :: What is the best Incentive ? |
| |
|
Incentive schemes have been much criticised in recent years, and
it is quite true that some schemes have been singularly
unsuccessful. Their failure, however, has often been the result
of inadequate planning, rushed introduction, or not thinking
through such a scheme properly. These points should not be used
to generally condemn other more successful applications.
Whether any particular incentive scheme achieves long term
success depends initially on the thoroughness with which the
current working situation is reviewed, hence the need to re-look
at some key Action Points, and question why you need an
incentive scheme.
1. Increase in earnings for employees? 2. Increase in output? 3.
