On this episode of Silicon Valley Insider, Dave Liu, CEO of Liucrative Endeavors discusses his journey to the top of the corporate ladder and how he applied his learnings into his new book "The Way of the Wall Street Warrior" Conquer the Corporate Game Using Tips, Tricks, and Smartcuts. Dave shares insights into why he wrote the book and how he wanted to give his audience practical advice that can be applied immediately. Dave's book can be found on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Way-Wall-Street-Warrior-Corporate/dp/B09PX2YZ3J   Editorial Reviews From the Inside Flap In The Way of the Wall Street Warrior: Conquer the Corporate Game Using Tips, Tricks, and Smartcuts, veteran investment banker and executive Dave Liu delivers an acerbic and irreverent insider's guide to using gamesmanship to get hired, get ahead, and survive on Wall Street, Main Street, or any other ferociously competitive environment. The book discusses tactics for getting your foot in the door and then rising to the top of the food chain. The strategies and techniques discussed within apply whether you spend 18 hours a day in an office right next to your nearest colleague or you're working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. You'll learn interview tips, techniques for mastering the social environment at work, and CYA strategies to protect yourself from unexpected setbacks. The author discusses how to read a room, in a virtual meeting or in real life, and why it's more important than reading the prospectus. You'll discover the importance of the “How,” as opposed to the “Why” and the “What,” and why success means doing the least amount of work for the most pay you can extract. The Way of the Wall Street Warrior shows you how to be the smartest dumb person in the room by making the people around you think you're something special when, in fact, you're the patient corporate warrior who sits idly by while everyone else is burning themselves out in the rat race. Perfect for managers, employees, and executives in any competitive environment, The Way of the Wall Street Warrior: Conquer the Corporate Game Using Tips, Tricks, and Smartcuts will also earn a place in the libraries of business leaders seeking actionable tips on making sure their hard work pays off.   About Dave Liu: Dave Liu is a 30-year veteran of Wall Street and Silicon Valley.

About the book Any given day brings a never-ending list of things to do. There's the work thing, the catch-up thing, the laundry thing, the creative thing, the exercise thing, the family thing, the thing we don't want to do, the thing we've been putting off (despite it being the most important thing). Even on days where we get a lot done, the thing left undone can leave us feeling guilty, anxious, or disappointed. After five years of searching for the secret to productivity, Madeleine Dore discovered there isn't one. Instead, we're being set up to fail. I Didn't Do The Thing Today is the inspiring call to take productivity off its pedestal — by dismantling our comparison to others, aspirational routines, and the unrealistic notions of what can be done in a day, we can finally embrace the joyful messiness and unpredictability of life. For anyone who has ever felt the pressure to do more, be more, achieve more, this antidote to our doing-obsession is the permission slip we all need to find our own way. Source: https://extraordinaryroutines.com/book About the author Madeleine Dore is a writer and interviewer exploring how we can broaden the definition of a day well spent. For the past five years, Madeleine has been asking creative thinkers how they navigate their days on her popular blog Extraordinary Routines and podcast Routines & Ruts. She has contributed columns and features to Sunday Life, BBC WorkLife, ArtsHub, 99u, Womankind, Kill Your Darlings, The Design Files, ABC Life and more. Madeleine regularly conducts life experiments and hosts events to explore how creativity isn't just something we do, but how we approach our lives. Source: https://extraordinaryroutines.com/about Big idea #1 — Be a day artist One of the underlying ideas is this concept of being a ‘day artist', or seeing each day as a work of art. Being creative, rather than doing creativity in how we live. This means being creative with the elements of a day, even when that day doesn't go to plan. There's a nice quote in the book from Helena Bonham Carter that says;“Everything in life is art. What you do, how you dress, the way you love someone and how you talk, your smile and your personality, what you believe in and all your dreams, the way you drink your tea, how you decorate your home, or party ,your grocery list, the food you make, how your writing looks, the way you feel. Life is art.” It's a great reminder that we get to choose how to live. It's quite a freeing idea. Taking this approach involves a little bit more play, and wonder and curiosity.  Maybe you don't start the day by ‘eating the frog' or doing the most unpleasant thing first, but maybe you start the day with something that's pure pleasure instead. There's a fantastic example in the book, about a chef who starts the day with a bowl of porridge with a dollop of clotted cream on top, along with some brown sugar, and he just thinks that's the best way to start the day because by breakfast, he's already won the day! A perfect example of prioritizing delight over dread. Being a day artist might mean making changes to your environment, having a corner of a room dedicated to reading, for example. It doesn't need to be that you need lots of extra space, but maybe you just use your space differently. There's example in the book from Austin Kleon, who talks about having a really clear, crisp, clean work area with his computer where he writes, but then a really messy desk, which is where he does all his messy collage work. It means letting go of expectations, or at least holding them much more lightly and letting things surprise us, which can then allow us to explore what we really want, not just what we think we “should” be doing. Now, we can't seek constant novelty in life, but we can be much more attuned to it and leave space for surprise, even if it's just for an hour or 10 minutes in our day. Big idea #2 — Embrace the wobble There's lots of wobbling in our days. Maybe something takes longer than planned, or there's a distraction, an interruption, or a drama. Whatever it might be, embracing the wobble means that we might need to find ‘puddles' of time, rather than needing perfect blocks of uninterrupted time in order to get things done. It's more about self-awareness, than self-regulation, which a lot of productivity guidance can be a bit heavy on. Wobbling is a constant adjustment, we're constantly twisting and turning and balancing and bumping into things. But berating ourselves for our inconsistency takes up the precious time that we're telling ourselves off for wasting in the first place. There is no dress rehearsal in life, this is it. Maybe we need to stop letting ambition get in our way. Sometimes ambition can be a good thing, but sometimes it can be a pursuit of recognition from others, rather than a focus on doing things that we want to do. It's obviously not all bad, but maybe being more micro-ambitious, a term that she took from the wonderful Tim Minchin, is a healthier and more flexible approach that allows us to focus in what's in front of us, in the present instead of what's next.

Click here to subscribe. Big idea #3 — Kindness over busy-ness None of us need telling twice about the modern scourge of busy-ness. It's such a barrier to connection and it's a fast track to burnout. Kindness, Madeleine says, is the antidote to burnout. Kindness with ourselves and with others. Whether that's a chat with the person serving you at the post office, or making a donation to charity, or texting a friend to say hi, incorporating a bit more kindness into our days, rather than busy-ness, can be a nice way of slowing down and remembering what's important. Kindness extends to ourselves by knowing that rest is not a bad thing. Hobbies don't need to be a side-hustles, and we can challenge all the things we tell ourselves that we should do. Otherwise it's easy to find ourselves too busy to actually enjoy life. There's a really nice analogy in the book of being like a sponge. Sometimes we're in absorption mode soaking up, resting, learning, taking in knowledge etc, but too long in absorb mode will leave us kind of sodden and a bit soggy and wet. So we need to be squeezed. We need a bit of pressure to balance us out. Ultimately, Madeline says;“Maybe we can't expect to enjoy every day, but we can find it endearing. When we reach the end of the day, instead of berating ourselves, what we did or didn't do, we can be charmed by the ordinary moments of living and what our days can bring.” Which I think is a rather nice way of thinking about life.

Today we’re talking to Kelsey Bolar, senior policy analyst at the Independent Women’s Forum, about two important topics. First, South Dakota governor Kristi Noem’s decision to backtrack on legislation that would protect girls’ and women’s sports. This has disappointed many conservatives, wondering if she’s "sold out" to the NCAA. Then, Kelsey talks about the PRO Act, a piece of federal legislation that would make working as a freelancer or independent contractor unnecessarily difficult. It aims to bring California’s "ABC Test" to the national level, even after it has devastated that state’s gig economy.  --- Today's Sponsors: Patriot Mobile never sends any money to the Left - they will never silence you & they're America's ONLY Christian conservative wireless provider.

First, we discuss recent comments made by John MacArthur about religious freedom. Is it right to fight for the religious liberty of those who hate you? Then, we briefly address Beth Moore leaving the Southern Baptist Convention. She's been a controversial figure in the SBC for some time, and it seems they will be parting ways. And, it was disappointing to see elements of critical race theory and other aspects of leftist social justice creeping into what should be strictly biblical rhetoric. --- Today's Sponsors: Built Bar: Don't give up on your resolution.

Kate's escalating alcohol addiction led to the worst possible outcome. This became the catalyst for her own recovery and her pursuit in life to make good by helping others. Kate is not her real name. "I Am Not My Crime" features courageous people telling you the story about the crimes they have committed and their journey to redemption. As you make your way through this first season you will notice a couple of common themes: the importance of other people, opportunities for employment, and being welcomed back into society are what really matter for supporting change and a life lived differently. "I Am Not My Crime" has been produced to help you understand that for many people it is their circumstances that led them down the path to offending behaviour and that what somebody has done in the past is not an indication of who they are today. Presented by University of Southern Queensland Criminologist Dr Suzanne Reich, each episode concludes with the latest research about why people commit the crime or crimes that have been discussed. If this episode brings up any issues, and you need to talk to someone, you can contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Alcoholics Anonymous on 1300 22 22 22.

This week's Mumbrellacast features a chat with ex-ABC boss Michelle Guthrie, in which she discusses her take on the latest round of cuts at Australia's public broadcaster, why she believes the loss of ABC Life is a shame and how a business can balance audience demands with tight budgets.Sticking with the ABC, a COVID-19 scare on the set of News Breakfast this week sent hosts Lisa Millar and Michael Rowland into lockdown.

Hetty McKinnon is a New York-based cook and food writer from Sydney, who is perhaps best known for her much-loved recipe books, Community, Neighbourhood and Family, and her salad-making venture that started it all, Arthur Street Kitchen.A career in food wasn't on the cards for Hetty early on. She actually spent her 20s working in fashion and beauty PR, before deciding to make a change in her 30s to find work that would better fit the lifestyle and flexibility she wanted, as a mum to three young kids.As the story now famously goes, Hetty started making salads in her tiny terrace kitchen in Sydney's Surry Hills, packing them up on her bike and delivering them around the neighbourhood.

It was a sad week for the ABC. Up to 250 job cuts, the loss of ABC Life and the 7:45 news broadcast. Shadow minister for communications, Michelle Rowland, joined the Mumbrellacast and weighed in on the implications these cuts will have on Australia's media landscape and its access to diverse and regional content.Some big moves took place in media agency-land, including Hearts & Science acquiring an agency and a restructure in Carat's strategy team. For Carat, it is one of the biggest moves from CEO Sue Squillace since she stepped into the role last September. Will this be what gets the agency back in the game after a tough couple of years?The team debates Tik Tok marketing. Is it worth it? How do marketers do it? Is the platform just a fad?

All the President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 55, I join editor of the 7am podcast, Osman Faruqi. Osman and I discuss the awe-inspiring Black Lives Matter protests, the murkiness of political decision making, and the perverse imperatives of story prioritisation in the digital age. *ABOUT OSMAN FARUQI (* *via Sydney Writer's Festival* ( https://www.swf.org.au/writers/osman-faruqi/ ) *)* Osman Faruqi is the editor of 7am , Schwartz Media's daily news podcast.

Where would the world be without celebrities giving political advice and telling us not to be racist? The world is a better place for their guidance. Today we celebrate more famous people posing - but where's Robert Downey Jr? And why is the ABC celebrating racist lesbians who want coloured sperm?

Fashion! Turn to the left. Fashion! Turn to the right.Unlike many trends, David Bowie's 1980 song 'Fashion' hasn't gone out of, erm, fashion. Fashion is said to be a popular or the latest style of clothing, hair, decoration, or behaviour - but so often these things don't last. Think shoulder-pads, click-pants - heck, even socks and sandals were probably considered cool once.Fashion can drain our bank accounts, and is really not great for our environment. So, what shall we do about fashion?ABC Broadcaster Tali Aualiitia realised late in 2019 that she was addicted to fast fashion. So, she committed to buying no new clothes in 2020 - living out of her wardrobe of previous purchases, no matter what the fashion may be. And, as she shares in this episode, she's learning plenty about herself, and also learning some new skills in the process.You can find Tali on Twitter @taliaualiitia, and watch the progress of her year on Instagram @nonewclothes.tali.You can read more of Tali's thoughts in her article 'I'm buying nothing new this year to break my fast fashion addiction' at ABC Life.Thanks for listening to What Shall We Do About...?, it means a lot!

You've heard of online trolls, but what happens when they share your private data, like your contact details, with malicious intent? ABC Life's Osman Faruqi found out the hard way.

In this episode, which is a co-production with ABC Life, Osman confronts the man responsible. And with the help of reporter Alex Mann, he investigates why law enforcement is seemingly powerless to protect victims.

"Mum says my boyfriend is a keeper. Right now, for practical reasons, he is in fact the keeper of all the medications I am currently taking." We all have that voice in our head.

No Feeling Is Final is a show for anyone who’s ever wondered if life is worth living. And for anyone trying to better understand their friend, partner, or kid who’s wrestled with these feelings themselves. At times heartbreaking, and desperate — but also darkly funny, and charming, No Feeling Is Final is a story of difference, identity, and why we should stay alive.
