20 YEARS IN PERSPECTIVE:Mike Tyson, the philosopher, says that everybody has a plan until you get a punch in your face.INSEAD was a big part, a big success factor for us. We got the family out of it, but we also got pretty good jobs after.I learned to code and I wanted to go back into trading and I went into systematic trading for 5 years and then developed models for cryptocurrencies as well and then I fell completely in love with that and fell into the rabbit hole of blockchain, web 3.I get bored very easily, so I can't have the same stuff every single day and just trying to reinvent myself all the time.In my twenty plus years of professional life, the people that did best and the people I admire most, they all had a really good balance between being intelligent and having a good amount of emotional intelligence.One regret that I have is that, five years ago my father passed away, I didn't have enough time to spend with him. We always have this romantic vision that you control time, you control your destiny and it is so not true.ON TOPIC: Making it work as a couple, an INSEAD coupleIt's not just the kids, not just the marriage, not just the job, but you kind of have to fit everything into life and once in a while even find time for yourself, which has been very challenging for many years.One thing which is very important, is to understand that career and life, it's a journey - there'll be times that one of the partners is going to be ahead of the other one and we think this is a little bit like a relay race at different points in life. The career of one is going to be,The one of the two is going to be the stable income earner, whereas the other one is retooling, relearning and preparing for the next moonshot.So you take turns and as long as there is mutual respect and understanding and we work almost as a team, while one is retooling, the other one is really working hard and it's how it should be. If you keep this balance right, it works, it simply works.Allow yourself to fail and don't be afraid just go for it. What's the worst thing that can happen to you expect the worst and then hopefully you're positively surprised after. And if you need to fall, fall forward. Never fall backwards.ON TOPIC: FINANCE, FINANCIAL SERVICES, START-UPS, VENTURE, BLOCKCHAINThe job I used to do when I started, which was FX, now they are done by machines, you don't need people anymore. After the great financial crisis the industry changed a lot and became almost like a sausage factory.I do think the next evolution of finance is going to come from improving payments, streamlining, removing the middlemen, the rent seekers, which a lot of times is the bank.Whenever there is a gold rush, people that make most of the money is the people that sell the picks and shovels. We invest in the picks and shovels. ON TOPIC: START-UPS, SCALE UPsI think it's good to actually start out in the more corporate space because you get proper training and I think that nobody can take away from you.When I made the big change from a, tens of thousands of people company into a 4 people company, the most important learning from me was that you don't really need all of the support that you thought you needed desperately before.To build a scalable business like that you need to take a couple of baby steps before actually getting to something that works and then figure out how to scale it.References, mentions:Bound, FX hedging, Lehman brothers, Nomura, Barclays, CBDCs, Blockchain, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Smart contracts, Autistica charity, Siddhartha: An Indian novel (Hermann Hesse), Emotional Intelligence (Daniel Goleman), Give and Take (Adam Grant)

Đường nâu, mật ong thì tốt hơn đường mía/đường trắng? Tiếng Anh là ngôn ngữ chính thức của Mỹ? Những tuyên bố ở trên có vẻ chắc nịch như là một sự thật hiển nhiên hay tưởng như là kết luận rút ra từ 1 nghiên cứu khoa học. Cho tới khi, chúng ta dừng lại và suy nghĩ lại, đặt câu hỏi cho mình: Phải thiệt là như vậy không? Năm 2021, có nhiều dự định hay mục tiêu mình vẫn chưa đánh dấu vào ô hoàn thành. Duy chỉ có 2 điều mình tự hào mình đã làm đều đặn: VIẾT & ĐỌC. Cũng vì thế mà podcast mở hàng năm 2022 này mình nghĩ không còn gì thích hợp hơn là chia sẻ với các bạn suy nghĩ chung của mình về việc đọc sách. Trong podcast này thì mình cũng review/ nhận xét về 1 trong những quyển sách ra mắt vào tháng 2 năm 2021. Đây là quyển sách nằm trong danh sách 10 quyển sách mà mình tâm đắc trong năm vừa qua. Đây cũng là quyển sách mở màn cho việc vượt qua nỗi sợ hãi của mình để bắt đầu một nội dung mới cho Nu DOP Podcast.

Sophie Mendes van Delft is a world traveler and has lived in France, the United States, and now, Canada.

In this episode, we go into detail on social media, and the power of community, and talk a bit about the emerging Generation Z. We also talk about the really fiery hot Canadian trends in the food industry such as local food.

The Wolfman, a chef in Canada How do you distribute content?: We have two platforms. A blog and a magazine with a different audience Restaurants Canada – Teach Industry Menu Mag – Inspires industry All social media has a different platform. For Restaurants Canada, advocacy is important so Twitter is the best Foodservice and Food Industry focuses on Instagram because it’s a very visual profile What do you like best about your job: I get to meet so many passionate people George Brown in the Ontario Region.

One day, a lady saw that I was upset and said “just do marketing for food companies” We eat food more than we talk about it Soft skills that are important in the industry: Empathy Technical tools: The platforms themselves have a huge amount of tools. For example, Instagram can track every single post and who is looking and use hashtags to find things. Instagram Direct Question ability.

My guests today are a pair of wonderful people, Jason Hulshof and Drew DeBiasse. who find purpose in teaching yoga, Together they run Heart Yoga in Uptown Minneapolis. HeartYoga is not a yoga studio. It is a yoga school; a frontier where anyone and everyone can heal and grow. Yoga found Jason in a crazy summer of 1995 - self taught until 2000 when he met his teacher Jonny Kest and, after working closely with Jonny to share flowing yoga for 15 years, he started HeartYoga in Minneapolis, Minnesota. His current mission is to share HeartYoga and its core philosophies with the world. Drew DeBiasse was forced to take her first yoga class in 2004 and says she hated every second of it - after having a deep calling to try it again the following year, it led her to teacher training with Jason Hulshof and Jonny Kest in 2011. Considered an anomaly by her peers, Drew is both a healer of the soul and a business maven - her current mission is also to share HeartYoga with the world. You can visit heartyogaonline.com for more information on upcoming teacher training opportunities or inquiries to hire Jason and Drew for trainings, events and workshops. -----------------Resources Mentioned:-------------- Jonny Kest Richard Hittleman's Yoga: 28-Day Exercise Plan The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - Steven Covey Give and Take - Adam Grant https://studentoftheworldblog.wordpress.com/2016/03/25/realizing-spiritual-intentionality-at-the-island-yoga-retreat/ Join our purpose seeking podcast community at... https://www.facebook.com/peopleofpurposepodcast/ https://www.instagram.com/peopleofpurposepodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/370599930049519/?source_id=146822282503735
Do you suffer from exhaustion, cynicism, and inefficiency at work? Does the idea of getting up and going into the office fill you with dread? You might be suffering from burnout. While we tend to throw around the term, it's a specific psychological state. People who work in high-stress, high-stakes professions, such as medicine, are the most at risk. Yet even we cube-dwellers can overextend ourselves and reach a breaking point. This week on Game Plan, Rebecca and Francesca seek advice on how to avoid burnout from Wharton professor and author of "Give and Take" Adam Grant. He explains how to be a "giver" at work without losing enthusiasm and energy for your job.
In his follow-up to the bestseller Give and Take Adam Grant challenges our assumptions about what it takes to generate and champion original ideas in ourselves and others. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
The youngest tenured Professor at Wharton Business School and Author of "Give and Take" Adam Grant explains his concept of categorising people into "givers", "takers", and "matchers", how to avoid being a Doormat to other people, why gratitude journals work best when written once per week, and his views on educating his own children.
