Digg it UP - The Lucky Investor
As I interviewed thousands of people over a 20 year period at the Executive Recruiting Firm I owned in Phoenix AZ, I discovered that the majority of people are NOT living their passion. Instead they are showing up for a “job,” collecting a pay check, counting the days until the weekend or counting the months until their next one week vacation.Let me share a couple examples of a few clients that learned how to design a lifestyle and a career so they could “have it
It struck me the other day during lunch at a local Moe’s Southwestern Grill that a new phenomenon has swept the restaurant landscape in the form of poor attempts to differentiate from the competition—renaming accepted terms of business with cutesy nicknames. This is readily visible in the faster food sector, and it’s becoming more prevalent as companies struggle to connect with the consumer in manners which create loyalty and/or preference.Take Moe’s as a prime example
I'll never forget the definition of luck I heard many years ago. A friend of mine said "Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity." This has never been more, true of good fortune, than in the world of investing. When you are prepared you will recognize opportunities others do not; thereby making you appear lucky.
Taking the time to learn about the many ways in which you might invest is a perfect example of preparing yourself for an opportunity. The more familiar you are with a concept, the easier it is to recognize opportunities when they present themselves. Often times the most profitable situations appear to be unsolvable issues on the surface. It is the educated investor who can spot the opportunity buried in the pile of problems; and be rewarded handsomely for his/her efforts. The average person, who has not taken the time to educate himself/herself, is astonished when they see the good fortune bestowed upon the educated investor.
It is important to note that acquiring an education has nothing to do with being naturally smart. A lot of professional people, people considered in society as ‘smart’, have lost absolute fortunes because they lacked education about their investments. There are people who barely finished high school and are multi-millionaires. How can that be? The answer - one is book smart and the other is street smart. Bo
Design takes many forms in different contexts. In the applied arts, such as graphic design, industrial design, fashion design, functional art, and decorative art, design is considered a noun as it is a verb.Such is also the case in engineering, architecture and other creative activities. Design allows human beings to effectively communicate ideas and information. It cuts across a wide range of applied arts from fashion design to industrial design.Design as a noun

Private detectives and investigators deploy many methods to determine the facts in a variety of matters. To perform investigations they may use various types of surveillance or searches. To verify facts, such as an individual's place of employment or income, they make phone calls or visit the workplace. In cases involving missing persons and background checks, investigators often interview people to gather as much information as possible about an individual. Private detect

Instability in the Middle East and threats to geo political harmony from Iran are combining to hike up oil prices around the world. This is having an impact at all levels from big business to consumers; and the freight industry in particular is under strain as a result.In the UK petrol prices are reaching record highs which is affecting the cost of road freight transportation. However, it is not just road freight which is affected by increasing petrol prices. Air freigh

Before you consider your next job change or even career change, it's crucial that you look at the kind of lifestyle you want today and in the future. As you determine the course of your career path, you’ll discover that other facets of your life will enter into the picture as well—where you life, how you spend your money, how you spend your free time. This career-planning time is also time to think about life planning. When I meet with my clients for the first time, before I a
By now you are probably thinking it might take too long to prepare for opportunities. Or you should have started preparing long ago so you would be ‘lucky’ right now. Do not lose heart. First, realize if you are short on time, you need to work very efficiently. By leveraging the knowledge of others around you, you can shave years off the ‘preparation’ process. All smart business men and women know this. You may have heard the term ‘Mastermind Group’. This is a group of individuals who have been carefully selected by a business person to help reduce the time necessary to learn a skill or process. Another way to leverage your time and gain the knowledge you need, to make smart money decisions is by engaging the services of a mentor. A mentor is simply a person who acts as a guide to you in your investing activities. In either case, asking for help and guidance will help you avoid many pitfalls and save a lot of heartache.
