In personal or professional life you always set objectives. The main reason for not accomplish them is the lack of time. Therefore you feel the necessity of time management techniques. From post-its on the fridge to reminders on your mobile phone or tasks list in Outlook you try to improve your efficiency.

How about using Twitter to do that? How about an automatic way of setting a small objective and having a website remind you of it? How about the first small step in your thousand miles journey?

This is not a commercial, but my opinion about the newest online tool for time management: www.23sec.com.
It is easy to utilize for daily objectives and also a smart use of Twitter’s potential.

When you spend most of the time at work in front of a computer ant send twits on company’s time, it becomes a good thing to use the same twitter application for making your work easier.
Stop wasting time! Use 23sec.com!

Galco’s Soda Pop Stop is a store own by John Nese where you can buy a beverage made with sugar … maybe soon the last one in the world. The corn syrup and the diet versions of the beverages are just a few and only to give a larger choice for the customer.

Watch the video:

What I have learned from this video:

1. You can say Thank you but no thank you to Pepsi. Maybe one day the soy producers will say the same thing to a certain company. The same way John Nese owns his shelve space, they own their land.
2. Glass bottles are better.
3. Do not drink diet. It doesn’t really help and is not healthy. How about DRINK LESS?
4. Freedom of choice is important. With many small businesses comes variety of choice.
5. How about reuse instead of recycle?

The only smart people in this world are my friends. How’s that sound? Depending on your tendency to judge others sounds very bad … when someone else is saying it.

We all think this way because it is a way to validate our worth and our own intelligence. “Birds of a feather flock together, and I, because I’m smart, I only have smart friends.”

It is a narrow way of thinking, I agree. But what do you do when most people you meet are narrow-minded? They do not want to learn anything new and do nothing useful with what they already know. You try to avoid them, but sometimes they are the people that have power of decision about your future. I do not have an answer to this question …

The opposite happens sometimes. You meet special people, who in less than five minutes can show you that every second spent in their company is worth (it happened to me yesterday). I’ve always considered that an interview for a job should take maximum 5 minutes. Decision is made anyway based on what you feel in those moments. If you already like the person, why make him go through other 3-4 interviews with the HR recruiter, etc.? In any case, you will not take into account the other’s points of view because only your opinion counts.

How you relate to people that you like after you met them? You say they are your friends. And that initial statement becomes again the absolute truth: The only smart people in this world are my friends.
