I was talking to my friend, Alan Furlong, on the phone the other day. He’s a loyal follower of the positive psychology movement. I asked him “Alan – what should someone do if they really don’t like their job?” Without hesitation, he said “Quit”. I have to admit, his answer freaked me out. But the…
An interesting interview with Marc Adreessen the inventor of Netscape and venture capitalist. He makes the following poiint – What did you do? I just went to college. I did my thing. I came out here in ’94, and Silicon Valley was in hibernation. In high school, I actually thought I was going to have…
Your feelings don’t just LAND on you. You generate them. And if you generate sad feelings, you can also generate energising, happy and exuberant emotions. Take responsibility for the way you’re feeling right now. If you are ‘losing hope’ it means that you haven’t chosen to generate hope in your life. It means that you…

A Pew report released Thursday reached the conclusion that people in developing economies are more likely to think the next generation will be…
The other week I got to indulge in two of my favourite activities – catching up with someone who I had not seen since Uni days and watching blokes on a boat ramp. It was fortuitous that the café we had chosen overlooked a boat ramp and boat ramps are my favourite form of free…
MOST PEOPLE ARE discomfited by radical change, and often for good reason. Both the first Industrial Revolution, starting in the late 18th century, and the second one, around 100 years later, had their victims who lost their jobs to Cartwright’s power loom and later to Edison’s electric lighting, Benz’s horseless carriage and countless other inventions…
I get emailed any number of things on a daily basis – in between brokers begging for business and land rats who do not understand that four bedrooms and a pool does not mean a one bedroom bedsit I get some weird shit relating to trading. The latest piece of oddness to hit my inbox…
