If I do what I like, it is going to take me a year to see results...
It will be a year's time of living the human capsule life...
Working an insane 12 to 14 hours day...
Where there aint any real interaction with people...
But I wont have a boss...
And I dont have to answer to anyone...
For I am my own boss...
And I weave my own destiny...
I will be in the SI quadrant of the game for at least a year or two...
Maybe it is time to overcome the fear that has holding me back ever since the disastrous performance of 2009/2010...
Never claim you are an expert in anything...
Never say you know everything...
We are all learning and it will take years...
Never be afraid of failures...
I have a dream of not being in the E square...
And then the transition to BI...
And the selfless contributions that come with the privilege of being in BI...
That will be sweet...
How Not To Be Useless??
Before I start, Kindle is just awesome!! Get one today, you gadget trolls...

When I walked out of the computing site, I saw something interesting: Bad guys always get the girls. I wont call them bad per se but these guys...they are more confident than the average Joes...
Sometimes, it is not that the girl does not like you but you are too timid to even make a move. Then, the bad guy comes along and asks her out within the "dating timeframe". She thought that you are not interested in her and so...she goes out with the bad guy. Being bad does not mean being a jerk but it simply means being a person with an independent personality and CONFIDENCE!! If you want to get married before 30, you gotta have the balls and some personality, not money, not even looks. Just ask her out for coffee, for lunch/dinner, study/work on a project together, text her occasionally and buy her some gifts. Else, focus on your career...and dun even think about them.
So, what does this have to do about being useful? A lot...
When you are single, don't dwell on the fact that you are a pathetic single man or lady - no, this is called desperate and clingy. It shows that you need to cling on to someone to be happy.
When you get dumped, move on - dont go back to the person who dumped you and start acting like a cry baby. He/she is just not into you. You only need one partner at a time and marriage, oh god, is overrated. It is like signing a T-mobile contract plan that lasts forever where the cancellation fee would involve half of your fortune (with no pre-nup) and a possible lawsuit.
When you dont have a job, dont act like an idiot and look at the situation as if it is the end of the world - go look for a new one or create your own. Both ways are possible. Stop feeling sorry and look like a sulky idiot. There is no written rule in this world that says that you need to go to school, then to college (or maybe to grad school) and then get a job. Yeah...right!! If everyone thinks along that line, who will provide the jobs?
When people tell you that you are unemployable, dont just believe a word that they say, prove them wrong - Being unemployable is just another opportunity for you to create your own destiny and to discover what you are good at. Dont be afraid of the dark. You live for yourself, not for others, so why let their opinions worry you?
If you know that you are absolutely not able to spend any time doing community service, contribute some god damn money.
Certain jobs are viewed more unfavorably than others but if that is what you like doing, go for it. Never let any pork headed big talkers ridicule you. If everyone is a CEO or an engineer or an actuary, who is going to make your cup of coffee, clear the landfills, bake you a cake or even give you an orgasmic experience like no others?? The best example is portrayed in this book:
MUTUAL RESPECT - You want to be useful but at the same time, you want your friends to feel comfortable around you. Do not ask a person about future career plans, religion or politics, the three big NO's, unless he/she voluntarily asks you for opinions. Why? Because you will start making judgments and you will either feel super good or super bad. Sometimes, this advice just needs to be drummed into people's head: Not everyone is comfortable talking about their career plans, what they specifically do for a living, how much they make annually or what exciting project that they are working on. Stop being nosy and you will be LOVED!! Even when I make millions, do you think I am going to tell you? Not a chance! Career or business is something that you discuss with your team members, advisers/mentors, employees, your management team or business partners, not friends from college/high school and previous co-workers...unless your path somehow crosses with them...but then again, you should not talk about the three big No's in front of other friends.
Continuous Improvement - How? How? How? Period....
Networking - Meet someone new today, an expert or someone who might assist you in whatever you do, take him out for lunch/coffee, pick his brain and learn from his experience. Call the session your MBA/Psychology "fish soup for the brain" project and exchange contacts...when I get my ass back...this is, sadly, something that I need to learn...I am not a natural talker myself...
Hustle on...

Two Interesting Math/Econs Problems
Ok, readers!! See if you are smart enough to figure out the answer to these two problems below:
1) You have just entered a gameshow where you are given the chance to win a car. There are three doors: 2 with a goat behind them and 1 with a car. You choose one of the three doors and the host opens one of the remaining two doors. It is revealed that the object behind the door that he has just opened is a goat. Now, there are two doors left. Are you going to switch? We will assume that the host knows which door contains the car.
2) There are 6 participants in a room. Three girls and three boys and they play a dating game. Their date preference table is shown below:
Women:
w1 : m1> m2> m3
w2 : m1> m3> m3
w3 : m1> m2> m3
Men:
m1 : w1> w2> w3
m2 : w1> w2> w3
m3 : w1> w3> w3
What will the outcome (aka who will end up dating whom) be if:
a) The man makes the first move
b) The woman makes the first move
What conclusion can you draw from the dating game?
