Train with Real Swords
Train with Real Swords
You're still a free user. You're still outside our Dojo. Yet, as the great Konosuke Matsushita ( founder of Panasonic, father of business and management in Japan) once remarked, you won't be learning well if you practice only with wooden swords.
Be serious. Go back if you haven't done the previous steps.
- If you are not clear about your ambitions, then you search Grace Kelly/Tom Cruise but will end up with Kim Kardashian/ Arnold the Terminator.
- If you are not clear about your strengths, then you Justin Bieber will try to challenge Einstein in Physics, or you Einstein will try to out-pace Usain Bolt.
Be serious.
If you can't pretend your life and job depend on our exercises, do go back. Please do the previous steps. Or come back later when you can be more serious.

(credit: "On Grand Strategy") In order to have a direction but avoid the swamps and holes, to be a lion as well as a fox, we use
- Compasses

- Walking sticks and sensors too
Interests in Details Help Your Job Hunt
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" and "Manual of The Warrior of Light" by Paulo Coelho also share such ideas.
Details do break deadlocks sometimes.

If you have to charge ten times as much
This is a provocative question for marketers by Seth Godin. The source article is This is Marketing
Here is our attempt to answer this question:
Here is our attempt to answer this question:
Why We're Worth 10 Times as Much
To your relief, your dream has come true : "You will reach your true potential in this life."
We make this promise. Not by magic. But by your own DIY research and wisdom.
Once you clearly know
- What you truly want to achieve
- What you can do: long-term, short-term, right-now-this-hour-term
- You will act. That is, you come to have agency.
- This action will have extra punch and power and venom because you have conviction because you've seen precedents and examples with your own eyes. That is, you come to have self-efficacy.
Examples
- English majors usually become burger-flippers (credit: Dilbert cartoon strips and "What Color is Your Parachute?").
But once you've seen others with good written English and good math become successful programmers, the way you attend your coding classes won't stay the same. - Previously guys with a bit of marketing, a bit of design and a bit of coding and a bit of many things else, got no where. You have been one of them.
Now these same guys become hot as "growth hackers." When you tell an interviewer that you are a growth hacker, your voice will carry a convincing, compelling tone.
"Horizontal" means from outside one's industry.( credit: "Marketing 4.0"), or from outside one's expertise (credit : "Rules for the Radical")
You who can , will do your life's work with the force of faith, and get better results.
For that, aren't we worth US$ 500 or more?
