What you like to do, what you have to do

de

I think there are two major things in life: a. What you do because you have to (you need to eat, thus you need money, thus you need to work, thus you need to have a job, thus you need to act in certain ways); b. What you do just because you want to (decide to go out for a run, play a game); OK, the above is not rocket science, but it’s pretty important on how decisive are the above things on emotions; only do things because you’re forced to, and you may not feel good; managing to do the things you love & have to do at the same time, you may feel better; Also, diversity is key – you can’t eat chocolate all day and expect to feel great after this; A final observation – the above are very likely seen in movies – you may notice what is a job and what is a pleasure; also, people seem to get a lot pleasure from childhood.

Watching „An inconvenient truth” (2006) from the perspective of a wannabe presenter

incovenient-truth

I want to be a good presenter; so, when Al GORE said in „An inconvenient truth” (2006) that he has held the speech / presentation in the movie for more than 1,000 times, I looked for some methods he used; I will not speak in the blog post about the message itself, but about how it was said; when seeing the movie, do remember that Al GORE is a successful politician, so he, in theory, should have the ability to hold a very good speech.

Idea: There is no competition, only niches and segments

de

I think there is no competition, only niches and segments; let me explain this: Any business you would take, you can segment it very much and pick a niche that hasn’t been taken yet and solve that niche’s problems better than anyone else; you will be the master of a niche; then, you can expand your business; Let’s say you pick a niche which is already taken; even in that niche you can create another niche; so, if you build a donuts shop next to another donuts shop, you can differentiate via customer service, quality, products, marketing, operating times and so on; you can be a different donuts shop. So the bottom line is that, in some way, there is no competition, only niches and segments. I got this idea from Vlad STAN (Twitter), at the Coaching Support Group Bucharest, Noble Manhattan training center. My follow-up: 2011.09.15 Vlad STAN at Coaching Support Group Bucharest.
