Free Agent Nation

Belief Changes!

1. Why risk with one company when you can work with many (like investment, lots of research, solid fundamentals, and Diversification)
2. Work is Personal
3. Work is Fun
4. Board of Directors, "The Strategy Group Therapy", a small self-organized cluster to help the hard-headed and soft-hearted entrepreneur with the same frequency consult professionally and motivate emotionally, "Working solo is not working alone"(an emerging free-agent infrastructure)(instead of office colleges and its benefit)
5. Consumer Union instead of Labor Union (Health Insurance, Office Supply, with economy of scale, and deep discount price, buyers monopoly!) Freelancers Union
6. Talent-Driven Model
7. The New Economic Infrastructure

Focus on What you do best, Deal

What is your Goals?

This is a wrong approach to asking and not specific enough to get a proper answer.

The question is: What excite you?

Excitement is the best to describe Happiness, and way out of Boredom.

"Excitement is the more practical synonym for happiness, and it is precisely what you should strive to chase. It is the cure-all." Timothy Ferriss, The 4-Hour Workweek

- Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one (Albert Einstein)

Tribe Management

Tribe Management, Seth Godin

"feed and grow and satisfy the tribe"

Projections

"We tend to assume others think, feel and react to the world the way we do. Psychologists call this tendency “projection”—we “project” our ideas and emotions onto others when we act as if others share them."

“Try to discover what it is you most dislike in others, what you most often criticize and condemn them for. A little elementary self-analysis may reveal that those qualities are hidden in the depths of your own mind and that in criticizing others in this way you are, in fact, unconsciously criticizing yourself.” (Bikshu Sangharakshita, Essence of Zen)

"When we recognize the places where we have a desire to develop, and begin to grow in those areas, an incredible thing happens: the world seems to grow with us. Others appear to take on the qualities we cultivate in ourselves."

From Are Your 'Projections' Limiting Your Success?

Explaination Problems

Decision Making can come from 2 parts of the brain, Conscious and Unconscious.

When it comes from the conscious part, theory, story, and explanation are logical, based on step by step analysis.

But many times, the snap judgment that comes from the adaptive unconscious part, "the secret locked door part of the brain", thin slicing experiences, explaination usually comes from assumption with no real facts and figures, an assumption made from previous life experience. (Survival Instinct?)

Why people don't really know what they want? Why thinking about it, they want one thing. And when doing it, they accept to want other thing. (Adaptation?)

Why is it just plain better to learn from seeing and hand on experiences? Ask any Pro to give verbal instruction, and it just doesn't feel right.

Sometimes, it is better to say "I don't know" than make up a plausible cases?

Based on my trying to understand of The Locked Door, 2. The Storytelling Problem (Blink, page 62)

Primed for Action

"The Frame of Mindset we are in before action" (Blink, page 53, very very good and true)

How do you set your frame of mind, ready for action?

How do you influences other frame of mind, to be ready for something...

After all, we are sheep in the herd... Unaware of our very own Sub Conscious (Frame of Mind), that is very easily influenced by the Environment and Surrounding.

Go on, lead the herd, simply with Awareness???

3. How to persuade others your opinion represents the whole group

If you want to convince others that your opinion is representative of the majority, then just repeat yourself. This surprising psychology study finds that if one person in a group repeats the same opinion three times, it has 90% of the effect of three different people in that group expressing the same opinion.
