Life Management 101 Life Management 101: Concrete Steps To Manage Life Leaving Tons More Time To Spend On What Matters Most… Customer Review: If You’re ALREADY a Millionaire, You Probably Don’t Need This… BUT… If you’re not yet where you want to be in life, if you’re a slave to your job (or business), if your like 98% of the population, YOU NEED TO HEAR THIS!

Don’t let the simplicity of James’s message fool you into dismissing these powerful ideas. (As apparently happened to the last reviewer.)

Yes… These ideas are simple (notice I did not say easy…) but it is their simplicity that gives them so much power.

You don’t need a 6 CD set with a 500 page workbook full of theory.

All you need to transform your thinking and take your life to the next level is ONE, straight to the point, no punches pulled, CD recorded by someone who “walks his talk”.

You don’t need a boatload of hard to implement (or even understand) strategies and tactics.

All you need is a handful of simple to follow (yet incredibly empowering) ACTIONS to take.

All you need is “Life Management 101″…

Buy it. Listen to it. Then do it!

Going back about fifty years, retirement was considered to be the short gap between receiving a gold watch and the last rights! Happily today retirement is accepted as the start of a whole new life adventure. With the likelihood that we will retire with all our faculties intact and fully functioning and with a good number of years in front of us, we now need to take a little more time to plan our retirement years to make sure we get the absolute most out of them.

Breaking the Financial Trap – Creating a Secure Retirement (Part 4 of 5) Retirement, for most people, is looking more and more like a far-off dream than a real possibility. And yet, there is more wealth around us than ever before. What do wealthy people know that others don’t?

The Advantages of Retirement Savings Over Guaranteed Lifetime Income Annuity providers tout guaranteed lifetime income as the best way to avoid outliving your life savings. However, that is only a nice marketing phrase. Guaranteed lifetime income has a high opportunity cost and allows the annuity provider using your money to provide for you. On the other hand, retirement savings gives you flexibility and options.

2010 The new year is upon us, and we finished off our old year and started up this new one in San Diego. We left a week ago, on Sunday, two days after Christmas, with a mad plan to get up really early and make the drive in one day. For background, last June when we left San Diego (yes, you counted correctly, that’s two SoCal trips in the same year), we left about 7:30 in the morning and managed to get home about 10pm that night—roughly 14.5 hours is the number that sticks in our head. This time, traveling south—we rolled out at 6:10am and arrived right around 11pm—it took roughly 17 hours. Two things worked against us: snowy roads on southern Highway 97 in Oregon and all the holiday traffic returning to Southern California the same day. It was grueling. We spent New Year’s Eve at my brother’s house, playing Balderdash and Left 4 Dead 2 and drinking beers and ringing in the New Year. We had tired kids, so we retired to our hotel just after midnight. So far my 2010 has consisted of seeing Up in the Air (my brother and sister-in-law watched the kids for us), drinking more beer, and driving home. We left San Diego around 9am yesterday and made it to Redding around 8pm last night—we wisely decided to split the drive home into two days. The 11-hour drive to Redding isn’t nearly as bad as it sounds; we made really good time most of the way—through Los Angeles especially!—and we stopped for maybe an hour at the Olive Pit in Corning for dinner and, well, to shop for olives. We made it the rest of the way home by mid-afternoon today, and I’m pleased to report none of the snow and ice we encountered a week ago is there. The roads were perfectly clear and except for some weird inversion-layer fog we hit just out of Weed—and up through Klamath Falls—driving conditions were great. So, in a nutshell, that’s how my 2010 is going so far. How’s yours?

A book I’d like to read A few years back, Law & Order had an episode where the killer planted a body part in the wreckage of the World Trade Center so that the crime would be covered up, looking instead like collateral damage from 9/11. It almost worked (but didn’t, of course) and got me thinking that the same type of plot device could be used in a different historical context, for instance the London Blitzkrieg during World War II. So of course I began working the idea around in my head: a body is found in the rubble of a London building, and it turns out to have been planted there to cover up a murder. But since I’ve very little experience reading detective fiction I’ve decided that rather than trying to put that idea to paper myself, some writer out there must already have tackled the subject of mystery fiction set during World War II London. And I’d rather like to read it. So, the question: does anyone know of such fiction, and/or could point me in the right direction? (Besides Amazon and Google searches, I mean. I’ll do that too, but those are no substitutes for actual recommendations.)

re: akitas and the humane society Just had to post in defense of the Humane Society==at least, of the Redmond HS… a recent post on Craigslist stated that a dog would not be adopted out but would be put down just because it was part akita. This is not true of the Redmond HS, although I cannot speak to the policies of others. Redmond HS will put down a dog only if it is sick or in cases of court-mandated euthanasia. They do their best to find good homes for all dogs regardless of breed.

NaNoWriMo (manageably) No, I’m not actually participating in National Novel Writing Month, but I toyed with the idea (again), and in doing so I did some back-of-the-envelope calculations to see how manageable it would be. The results were interesting, so I thought I’d share. The idea, of course, is to write a 50,000 word (minimum) novel in the 30 days of November. Breaking that out by day, you have 1,667 (rounded up) words per day to complete. 1,667 words per day doesn’t seem all that daunting, but once you sit down and start writing some out you start to realize how many it actually is. So let’s borrow a page from algorithm design in computer science and break it down into smaller, more manageable chunks. In particular, would spending say, five minutes each hour of your day writing be manageable? Yes? Doesn’t matter which five minutes, just as long as you open your text file or Word document or Google Docs account and write however many words you need for five minutes. So if five minutes each hour works, let’s figure out how many words you’ll need to write for each brief session. In order to determine that, we need to figure out how many writeable hours you have each day. The number I fell upon was 15: assume you wake up and/or are functional by 7am, and can finish sometime in the 9pm hour. That sounds reasonable, right? So dividing 1,667 by 15 yields 112 (again, rounded up). That’s how many words you have to write each hour for the 15 workable hours you have each day of November to reach 50,000 words and thus a novel. Can you write 112 words in five minutes? I’m able to hit that in about two, but of course that isn’t necessarily stringing together meaningful prose, or at least something somewhat resembling a coherent narrative. But even if what you write is dreadful, at least you’re writing something. Spending five minutes each hour to write 112 words? Seems laughably easy! How couldn’t you find the time?
