I love this TED talk by Helen Fisher.

She goes on how people form relationships based on 2 factors; Time and place. So…until you get to the right time at the right place, it will be a lucky dip.

UPDATE: I’ve moved this post from my lykbl blog as its more of a personal post rather than over at lykbl. This video is one of a few inspiring talks that helped my with lykbl. So, there is a link there. I just feel it more appropriate on this blog. That’s all.

I was very excited to get my copy of “Rework” by Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, founders of 37 Signals. Of course its not a secret that I am a big fan of Basecamp, and big a advocate for their thoughts on Project Management.

I’ve read this book more than once! I’m not a big reader so to have read this book > 1 time is a big statement. I love the way you can pick up any area of the book and read from there. Heck you can even read backwards and you will still get it.

The book was cleverly put together as a collection of experiences. IMHO, this is how all business books should be written. Nothing worse than reading a business[y] type of book only to find out that the author is a better writer than a business person.

If you haven’t already picked up that I really, really, really want you to read this book; here’s what you need to do. Download and read the exerp: Rework – Excerpts then get a copy of the book anyway you can. Even it means you are going to beg steel or borrow it. GET IT NOW!
