Random Thoughts – 15

1. Some of the most successful traders have systems so simple it would blow your mind.

2. Simple is beautiful.

3. Everyone has a different smell.  That’s weird.

4. Seems like a cure for seasonal allergies could be worth a good bit – if someone wants to get on that.

5. Thomas Sowell is a giant.

6. Other than bodily harm and theft, how can anyone be against freedom?

7. Don’t call me at work. Seriously. Send an email.

8. Blackberry is awesome. As I type this from an iPhone.

9. “The work you do while you procrastinate is probably the work you should be doing for the rest of your life.”

—Jessica Hische, From Austin Kleon in Steal Like an Artist (Amazon)

10. One of the hardest parts of parenting is keeping a straight face. FYI.

Random Thoughts – 14

1. Little bit of hippie. Little bit of culture. I could live in Santa Fe.

2. A $20 per week @DunkinDonuts allowance is now part of all my employment negotiations.

3. I have spent around 3 hours a day commuting. I have also spent less than 10 minutes a day commuting. The latter was better. I will probably never have much of a commute again.

4. I have read his autobiography Seven Pillars of Wisdom, but I want to read more on T.E. Lawrence. Someone remind me to do that later.

5. (Extended) Family can be wonderful. And infuriating.

6. How can some people not know how to swim? I don’t get it.

7. You would be surprised how far being disciplined and consistent about something can get you.

8. I finally read In Cold Blood. Truman Capote could write.

9. If you have a job. Make a LinkedIn profile. A formal CV, or resume, is a thing of the past. Almost.

10. Books on Kindle are keyword searchable. And the creatives rejoice.
