Man Can’t Stand Winning Millions Of Dollars

by Charlie Reese

Have you ever sat back and asked yourself what it would be like to win a whopping million dollar fortune? What would you do with the money? Would you help a lot of people or start a psychic business? Perhaps you would just retire and travel all over the world with the money. However, one man hated winning his fortune and tells all on an episode of 20/20 that aired on Friday April 6, 2007. Jack Whittaker was the man that won a Powerball lottery jackpot in 2002 for $315,000,000. That is more money than most people would ever make through the course of several lifetimes. Anyone that had this kind of money would probably be smiling and buying themselves and their friends everything that they ever wanted. It would be a dream comes true.

Effective Time Management: Being Flexible Is Important

by Wendy Hearn

Our circumstances seldom turn out just the way we envision them when we begin to plan for our future. And although we often need to stick to our original plans when circumstances become difficult, we also need to be willing to make changes in the way we live and the way we manage our time.

Our time is precious, whether it be the time we spend at work, leisure time and family time. This is why it is important that we spend our time on the things we enjoy the most and the things that will help us achieve our goals.

History–it’s All Frames

by Kenrick Cleveland

“If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.” –Abraham H. Maslow

Unless you had an alternative eduction, you probably learned U.S. history the same way a majority of American students learn U.S. history, through the eyes of the power elite. According to text books, all that ever happened, happened because of presidents and wars and assassinations. We learned of Columbus ‘discovering’ the new world. We learned of Abraham Lincoln freeing the slaves. These are broad strokes and highly impartial.

“Two men look out through the same bars: One sees the mud, and one sees the stars.”- Frederick Langbridge, A Cluster of Quiet Thoughts. Here’s how optimists are in action and researches that back up why it really pays to be an optimist:

Try placing Frog A in a pot of boiling water. What happens? He twerps! He jumps off! Why? because he is not able to tolerate sudden change in his environment – the water’s temperature. Then try Frog B: place him in the lake warm water then turn the gas stove on. Wait till the water reaches a certain boiling point. Frog B then thinks “Ooh it’s a bit warm in here”.

More Linguistic Pitfalls

by Kenrick Cleveland

Well. . .it seems like some of my readers have been paying careful attention. I like that. A while back I wrote an article about the eight most common avoidable pitfalls in language–but, if, try and might. Hey, that’s not eight! What are the other four? Several people commented on my blog that I was utilizing the open loop method of persuasion by saying there were eight, and only revealing four. Was this intentional? Maybe.

Now whether or not I was being sneaky and slipping in an open loop on purpose . . well, I’m not going to admit or deny that at this time.

Many people may not realize that they are in charge of their own spiritual levels and at times they may have to give their energy to someone that is in need.

by George Purdy

Continuing education is absolutely vital for efficient managers who want to stay up to speed with new technological and business innovations. But many busy managers don’t have time for traditional methods like attending courses at a college campus or reading the business books for dummies. Moreover, these systems are rarely interactive and may not be stimulating.
