IV. AMERICAN’S ARE MORE STRESSED AND ANGRY

  • “Americans among the most stressed in the world”

  • “Nearly half (45%) felt worried a lot”

  • “More than one in five (22%) felt angry a lot”

As a lot of us in developing countries are migrating to developed countries like the US in massive numbers.

When we see statistics like the one in this article it should spur us to deep contemplation.  “Why do they (US) have all the things we wanna go and get, yet they are angrier and more worried than us. hmmmmm.

Food for thought.

5. WHAT IM READING

The Startup of You, by Reid Hoffman

  • Adapt to the Future, Invest in Yourself, and Transform Your Career

  • “All humans beings are entrepreneurs, When we were in the caves, we were all self-employed … finding our food, feeding ourselves.  That’s where human history began.  As civilization came, we suppressed it.  We became “labour” because they stamped us,  “You are labour.” We forgot that we are entrepreneurs.   — — Muhammad Yunus  (Nobel Peace Prize Winner and micro-finance pioneer)

The above doesn’t mean that we are all meant to start companies, that stuff is too hard and risky for all to indulge.  What it means is that the will to create is encoded in human DNA.  We are all born to make something great, starting from ourselves!

This is a great read. You might not start a company but you already started a life.  We have the most profitable companies that ever existed in our generation.

Reid shows you what you can learn from how these companies grew and became massive successes so that you can use a similar framework to live a more accountable and successful life.

This is an easy to read book. You will learn from it whether you are a career or business person.
