When you get rejected, whether it is from a passed promotion or failing to get your dream job, you feel miserable. You want to build a fort around you with the covers from your bed and cry, stare blankly at the wall, or eat a quart of ice cream. It happens to the best of [...]

Why Can’t We Be Like The Europeans?

Many Americans are workaholics. Its part of our blood, we are just born with it. It rarely crosses our mind that we only get two weeks of vacation a year and that we spend way more than forty hours a week at work. Why haven’t Americans tried to adopt a more European approach to our [...]

Share the Nuts

Have you ever heard of the squirrel effect? I recently read about the squirrel effect which compares the storage and hoarding of nuts by a squirrel as equivalent to that of human beings in the workplace.

Know Thyself. Get a Job By Doing So

Don’t know what you want to do with your life? Try starting with a list of what you know you don’t want to do.
