Don't teach pigs to sing. It wastes your time. And it annoys the pigs." Rich Dad. Labour agitations and disputes is the thorn in the flesh of world economies today.  Developing countries have been top of the list for centuries. The same can be said today of developed and much bigger economies. In days of old a university degree was a guarantee for financial freedom and career fulfillment. The reverse may be true today. More than ever graduates including top performers have lost confidence is the system's ability to reward their hardwork and intelligence quotient.   Few days ago a participant in a learning group asked what else she could do with her math degree apart from teaching.  Like this professional many people are beginning to ask "what else can i do with my degree because my wages are barely able to cover my basic needs, I work to service debts instead of securing my family's future, I desire earnestly and desperately to get unstack from my financial and ca...

Anthony Robbins - How to Develop a Competitive Advantage in a Fast Changing World

 " If you don't have a competitive advantage don't compete"- Jack Welch. People have something in common with products/brands. Let's unpack this tough statement to the core.  Quality products emerge from quality decisions.  A product well recognized is a decision well recognized. Behind a popular product is a popular producer.  A product well embraced is a decision well embraced. A decision well recognized is a human well recognized.  Bill Gates is well respected as Microsoft. If  Mark Zuckerberg is sued today by a family member over something else the share price of Facebook will begin to drop. Therefore it's more empowering to see our personal lives or businesses as brands.  Walking in such point of view you would agree that humans are synonymous to the brands they represent. Then again we can say as a matter of psychological truth  that every human craves for recognition. We do that by hiding behind our brand identities.  As humans we feel...

4 Steps to Get in Charge During Sudden Changes in Your Life or Business

  "Everything you want is on the other side of fear" . - Jack Canfield .  Whats life like? An image or a video? Images do not provide all the details compared to a video. Life is accurately depicted as a video.  So think of your life as a movie.  The world is in a state of flux and constant motion.  King Solomon coins that beautifully as times and seasons for everything under the sun.
