Improving the economy


Don't focus on politics or the news about the economy. Focus on fixing your own economy. The secret to making money is to build what others want (BWOW). When you build what others want, they pay you for it. Here's a counterintuitive trick: to help others, focus on helping yourself. Be selfish. Chances are that whatever works for you, will work for a lot of other people facing similar circumstances. We're all the same storytelling primates gravitating around in the hologram of life.

People

The big data revolution shows us that we are more similar than what we think. For example, when you are searching on Google, the AI algorithm can easily predict what you are looking for and complete the search query for you. The algorithm has learned what others search for in addition to learning what you typically search for. 

Problems

Your problems are oftentimes similar if not identical to the problems faced by a lot of other people. If you figure out how to solve your problems, you can sell the solution. All those similarly situated people facing the same problem will line up to pay for the solution.

Solutions

Focus on yourself. Develop solutions to your own problems. Offer your solutions for sale. Even offer the process of finding solutions. Everyone can build a healthy community of customers theses days. The platforms are there. The needs and problems are there, and they keep coming and increasing. Develop solutions to your problems. That will help others facing similar problems.

Politics

Each side will make you believe that the sky is falling and that the world is going to end if you do not vote for them. Don't believe politicians. If you cannot see the good and bad on each side, you are a fanatic. If you believe that your party is the only one that is correct about everything, you haven been brain washed. 

Government

Don't wish that the government solves problems for you. Problems are your opportunities to have fun developing solutions, and your opportunities to make money selling solutions. Each problem that the government solves for you, is one less opportunity for you. Yet, don't worry, because problems will keep popping up out of nowhere.  

Economy

Have fun solving problems. Be grateful of having all sorts of problems. Chances are that many others have the same or similar problems. That is your community to serve. People will pay you for solutions, or even for your attempts at creating solutions. Identify the problems in everything. Develop solutions. You will find that problems are the blessings to improve your own economy. 

What do you think? Food for thought.

Is Putin white?

                                                             [This post was updated on May 6, 2020.] Is Putin white?  Conservatives and white supremacists are having a Putin problem these days. The standard convention is that the white race is good unless it is trash or mentally ill. Browns are terrorists, illegal immigrants, or both. Blacks are thugs. Asians are too many. Putin became a war criminal and is turning into Hitler. Conservatives and white supremacists don't know what to do about their secret love for the white boy. Some conservatives are dumb enough to blame Ukraine, or even imply that the war is fake. The only recourse for white supremacists is to expel Putin from the sacred white race.

Fortune

Can you make a fortune with the "in-formation" business model? This is where you begin selling information until you can move into the formation of other goods (products and services) for sale.  Slap is food for thought. Philanthropy in writing. Take more at  TakeSlap.com Using the in -formation approach you begin producing information formed from free information found around. You do not plagiarize, but rather create your own spinoff or completely derivative work. You begin selling information until you can make some money, amass some capital, and move into a "formation" phase where you can produce other goods (products and services) for sale.  From the information phase, you move into the formation phase if you want to grow and diversify. Otherwise, you can stay raking in profits selling information. After all, we are still in the information age and will stay there for a long while.  If you decide to move into the formation phase, you begin to develop products an

Return to office: a blessing for mediocre employees

Post-COVID Return to Office: meritocracy of mediocrity  The post-COVID Return to Office (RTO) transition brings great employment opportunities for mediocre employees.  Many top performers want to keep the productive freedom discovered during the COVID pandemic.
