Overcoming the riskavoidance
Today the incredible woes of our economy have shown how we have become addicted to “stuff”. As we accumulate more and more stuff, we are continually inundated with marketing from businesses teaching us what we have is never enough. In order to be happy we need to go out and buy more. So we do. Eventually came to the point of cheaper credit allowing us to borrow more money with the notion of paying it back later. And then we lost control. while credit is tightening all around us and sales slumping in almost ever sector in our economy. “… the underlying reality endures: after two decades in...extraordinary surges of borrowed money...a new era of risk-avoidance appears at hand.”Peter S. Goodman, 6.5% Out of Work, The New York Times, Saturday, November 8th, 2008, p. A20. How to become successful in this “post-stuff” world,

Open Minds and Goal Setting
I was taught 25 years ago that a pure scientist has the most open of minds. The reason being quite simple in that unless you’ve conducted an experiment and developed proof one way or the other, how do you know it to be true or not. I was also informed by a scientist that I met on an airplane many moons ago that unless it gets funded it probably won’t be explored. But that’s another story.

Do CEO\'s Overcompensate for Their Strengths?
As I sit in the Seattle airport waiting to board my delayed flight to Anchorage (Dear Alaska Airlines: Since it’s a “mechanical delay”, please feel free to delay it as long as you want until you are absolutely sure the airplane works), I was pondering a conversation I had at the very end of Gnomedex with an entrepreneur that I’d met for the first time.
New Beginnings
An airplane uses up to 90% of it’s power on the take-off, but once it gets to cruising height, around 36,000 to 41,000 feet, it only uses around 65% of it’s power. Like getting fit; getting fit is tough, but staying fit is easier. This applies to learning a new skill or starting a new venture, if you’ll excuse the pun.
Failure Comes From Not Following Your Additive Rules
The cliche “rules were meant to be broken” is a common one in the world of entrepreneurship. Paul Berberian – a great entrepreneur (and dear friend) almost died yesterday when flying his airplane because he broke three of his rules of flying in a row. Paul got lucky and I very glad he’s alive.
Lesson #1: Stick With It
“When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it,” said Ford.
Six a day, six days a week
Need a basic but realistic recipe for a balanced diet? Go for six ‘airplane-sized’ meals a day, six days a week (no, not the size of an actual airplane…but the size of the meals they serve you on board).
Thank you, Steven Slater and Jet Blue for Highlighting One Thing!
I have been reading about Jet Blue's flight attendant's meltdown, and whether or not Steven Slater started the affair or the passenger did, it still highlights something that we can all probably agree on. People in general have lost their manners, and society needs to get back to basics. Whether we are on the road, in an airplane, in the workplace, shopping, or at home, people are not treating each other properly and in many cases are just downright rude and disrespectful.
Control is an Illusion
The reality is that we can’t control our environment; the economy, our buyers, families, partners or neighbors, the waiter at the restaurant, the valet with our car or airplane mechanic fixing the problem. Often we can’t even control ourselves.
Improvement Planning for Taking Charge of Change
Effective learning and capability development doesn't happen just because we want it to. For example, empowering without enabling isn't just foolish it's unethical. It's like putting a complete novice at the controls of a clunky old airplane and "empowering" him or her to land in the middle of a ferocious thunderstorm.

Can I Safely Use a Laptop on a Plane or Shlould I Leave it at Home
Exposure to cold, heat or radiation will quickly damage the fragile electronics and data organized in a laptop. Your laptop may very well be influenced by some of these problems based upon the laptop and airplane model and final destination. So if you never really need to take your laptop away on the plane trip, then leave it in your own home.
