1. This article doesn’t really need any presentation, cause the title means is all. “How to Stop Comparing Yourself to Other People: 5 Effective Tips” .

So today I’d like to share a few mistakes that I have made in this area and that I think are fairly common.

3. I guess that each one of us has a list of blogs, “to read” everyday. Some of us write blogs.  So, what have you learned from  blogs?! “9 Life Lessons I Have Learned from Blogging”

Last night, as I was going to sleep, I thought about the most common question in my inbox: “What are your tips for creating a successful blog?”. And as I thought about it I got an idea. Not about writing about what I have learned about blogging. But what blogging has taught me about life.

So here are 9 life lessons I have learned. Or in some cases healthy reminders of what I already knew. I hope you find something helpful for your life/blog.

1. I really enjoyed reading this article because it made me think about my qualities. What I have, and what I don’t have. Think about it, too. “The 7 Signs of a Leader – A Must Read” .

“We all need leaders in our lives: mentors, people to look up to, people that simply get it. Leaders inspire us, help us accomplish our dreams, and teach by example. Leaders make us better people and give us an ideal to strive for.”

2. We are all used to having, one way or another, butterflies in the stomach. This time Dustin Wax, from LifeHack, is telling us about the butterflies that exist in the mind of his students. And not only…”Butterflies in the Mind: Taking the Long View “.

Teaching is like that. We set off butterflies in the mind, whose wing-flaps have little effect today and tomorrow but which, somewhere down the line, might blossom into a full-blown mental hurricane – a brainstorm, if you will.

3. I guess that we all agree, that our time it’s precious. And it needs to be organized, prioritized. Here are your options. How will you bend them? “6 Types of Time: Which Are You Missing? “

I spent last weekend on retreat, taking 48 hours out of my life to get away to a secluded countryside retreat center where I could have a chance to rest, relax and reflect. This opportunity made me think about what types of time we have in our lives: all hours are not necessarily equal, and time management advice doesn’t always address this.

1. For new entrepreneurs, I have a great article :  ”Productivity for Entrepreneurs”.

Minimizing the amount of time, money and sanity that is required to reach your goals is my definition of productivity and the only real reason anyone should care about it.

2. For those who have in mind a certain job, their ” dream job”, I recommend this post: 11 Steps in Becoming Educated for Your Dream Job .

This is a potential plan for getting a college education.  It is based on things that worked for me and things that I wish I had done.  It isn’t going to work for everyone, so it is probably best to read it as source for ideas–not something you should try to follow line by line.

3. I guess the title says is all. Revenue. Social media. It’s all about today’s interests in one very interesting article. How to maximize revenue through social media

These are not steps. When you’ve spent enough time focusing on awareness, your social equity will reach a level that will allow you to create engagement-type campaigns that will be successful. If you try launching engagement-type campaigns without building your social equity to a sufficient level, your campaigns will not be successful – and should be an indicator that you need to focus on awareness & build your social equity.

4. And because it’s Friday and the week-end is starting also have something funny for you. Click on: This cat is seriously stuck!

1. After you will read this post:  Unfriending: One key to a minimalist social experience , you will think twice before following too many people on Twitter/ Facebook.

The trend of following lots of people has its pros and cons — one of the pros is that you get to know more people than you normally would have. You also spread your influence and have your content spread more widely, if that’s something you care about.

But the con is that it’s hard to keep up with so much social information. Another con is that the relationships you do form become necessarily thin and superficial, because you can’t form deep bonds with thousands and thousands of people.

2. Some of us, don’t have a clear idea of what money represents. For clear idea i recommend  you :  The Bruce Lee Approach to Valuing of Money .

“A Child must be taught early that money is only a means, a type of usefulness, an implement. Like all instruments, it has certain purposes, but it will not do everything. One must learn how to use it, what it will do, but above all what it will not do.”

3. How can information be considered Pollution? Very simple. We do not realize it, but we are Living with Data Smog.

We are a nation awash in data smog. This is more than just information overload — it’s not just that there’s too much information out there for one person to adequately encompass, it’s that there’s too much data out there to even make out the information clearly, let alone to evaluate and act on that information.

1. Sometimes we all have this problem, either it’s about our professional life or our personal one, so i recommend you to read this post because it may help you to realize…  Why do most people give up and fail?

People Underestimate What They Can Accomplish

If people are overly optimistic with their timing, I believe most people are overly pessimistic with their goals.

2. For all you bloggers out there, i need to ask you something! How many times do you read your posts before you publish them?! But, before you answer to me, please read this article:  An Important Question to Ask Before Hitting Publish on Your Next Post !

3. 2009 is almost over. This year’s best productivity books are listed by Dustin Wax, from LifeHack.

Granted, the year’s not done yet, but publishers start to slow down new releases right about now, so it’s not likely we’ll see another contender for “best of 2009” until January. Plus, Christmas is coming up, and I wanted to give you plenty of time to read some of these books before you give copies to your friends and relatives.
