to wishlist or not to wishlist that is the question?

Johnny Bunko is a book, with a trailer, about career management, which inspired Garr Reynolds and me!

A controversial interview of Donald Knuth. I wish he would develop more some of the statement he makes (it probably is somewhere else knowing the man).

Last but not least, entrepreneurship is a state of mind ... it's Stanford! Overall pretty cool and interesting.

Yesterday I saw a job post which I found pretty interesting (not the first time, not the last time I suspect) and decided to apply despite being very committed to getting the new project off the ground. Whether in my resume or my cover letters I always try to show who I am and not focus on what I think the person on the other side wants to see (i.e. I don't do bullshit).

My friend Franck (RH Marionnaud) tells me I am suicidal ;) I just want to be myself (cf. inspired above):

1. there is no plan - I do follow fundamental reasons (most of the time ;)
2. think strengths - I do at least since 20080203
3. it's not about you - now there I learned a lot!!!
4. persistence trumps talent - that I am very aware off, in the meantime you must know when to take your loss i.e. focus on the end goal not the path. Intrinsic motivations (cf 20060804) and fundamental reasons go hand in hand in my book.
5. make excellent mistakes - ...
6. leave an imprint

I would love blogs, del.icio.us bookmarks, ad(ventures) to be taken into account by recruiters (they don't have/make the time). Reaching a certain level it is all about peopleship :P

I wonder where that will get me :D
