    I stopped reading the FLF.

    EXECUTION 
    Hi guys, this is not going to be a rant against this forum, or MJ, or anyone. It's just a short update on my progress and why I stopped reading this very forum. A little bit more than a year ago (8/16/2014), I discovered this forum through the Bold and Determined forum. As many of the...

    To you two my friends, who died today.

    MINDSET 
    Today two friends of mine, two heroes, died. Not in a war, not in a car accident, not in a murder. They died for their passion, their relentless search for technological improvement, for what they thought was worth dedicating time, pain, and ultimately even death. Before changing jobs I worked...

    BOOKS 
    These are the books that I've read between Jan 1st 2015 and Sep 30th 2015, hopefully someone will find some useful/intersting title. There is no fiction (I just finished reading the first work of fiction of the year). I will update this list once in a while. Must reads are: Kissinger's...

    Hi guys, I haven't been on this forum for a while, but that doesn't mean that I haven't been active. I have been... quite a lot. I am tired like s-it, but still moving. Without going into details, I have been active mainly in the government field, networking, making connections and more than...

    Today I made $500 without any effort

    INVESTING HOT! 
    Today I made $500 without any effort. Yeah, it’s not much, it’s not fastlane, it’s nothing great. Yet, I transformed X in X+500 just by using some knowledge that I would’ve had anyways. How I did it? I changed my mindset a little bit. It’s no secret that I am an Apple fanatic. I love most of...

    Networking: a major weakness as strength.

    PEOPLE 
    I admit it. I suck at networking. Call it a mix of shyness and laziness, but for me meeting new people is always a problem. Once they get to know me – and I get to know “them” – things become much better. I was told many times that I look always pissed off, but once I am “in” I become the life...

    EXECUTION 
    Just to let my millions of fans in this forum know. I have not being sleeping, I have been working at night on my side business for which I needed to learn a few skills. I am not ready to open a Progress Thread yet, just know that I have been thinking about this even before joining the forum...

    The teachings of Prince of Persia

    MINDSET 
    If you’re a child of the 1980s, you might remember Prince of Persia. It was a videogame with a very basic story (save the princess), in a basic environment (Persian castle), with basic enemies (a few ugly guys and “shadow man”). For the old days, its graphic and its gameplay were revolutionary...

    A dead child taught me something today

    MINDSET 
    I write this with teary eyes, and I am not saying it figuratively. Sometimes I find myself thinking that “I didn’t have an opportunity to do X”, or “I didn’t have Y available in order to do X”. Yes, it’s a dangerous mind-game of chess that I play quite too often. It’s a game of logic brain vs...

    Apple's PR - A study

    MARKETING 
    Website CultOfMac published a ten part study on Apple's Public Relations department, titled: "Seeing Through the Illusion: Understanding Apple’s Mastery of the Media". I found it very interesting, and full of insights. Wether you think bad or good about Apple's product, no one can deny that its...

    Two questions on business Cards.

    MARKETING 
    Not sure it's the right forum for this... 1) What is your philosophy on business cards? Do you think they are just info "carriers", or do you see them as American Psycho's Bateman? 2) Do you know any GOOD online shop for business cards ? And I mean, really good. So far the crap I got sucked.

    The math of wasted time

    I was calculating the amount of wasted time in front of the TV for the series I watch and post it on my blog. This of course without counting sports, movies, ads etc. and without counting reruns (I watched Seinfeld's "The Contest" at least ten times...) However, here’s a snippet (I apologize...

    Regrets, how do you cope?

    MINDSET 
    How do you get over regrets? Regrets are probably my biggest hurdle; yes I tend to live on the past and I am trying to figure out how to get out of such mindset and looking brightly at the future, but sometimes it ain’t easy!

    How does a CEO learn a new field fast?

    EXECUTION 
    How does a CEO learn a new field fast? I always wondered how CEOs can easily switch their field of business and become knowledgeable in a short period of time. For example, I used to work at a BIG aerospace firm, and we got a new CEO. First time I saw him, he admitted publicly that he had no...

    Networking. Talent or Skill?

    PEOPLE 
    Hi, I've noticed that for some people networking is the easiest thing to do. A few friends of mine actually have fun, and enjoy each and every opportunity they have to network. On the other hand, networking is something I don't enjoy. It's not that I am rude, solitary or anything like that...

    A pulp writer's tidal wave

    PUBLISHING 
    This is my progress thread. After all, it is said that accountability is important in each and every task we do. Publish a book on Amazon. DONE. As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t classify it as a book as it is a simple 1500 words short story, but I did it. I am out in the wild now. I created a...
