A Harrison Barnes – Do What You Want To Do, Not What You Think You Should Do
If you have a job or are pursuing a certain career primarily because you think you should, or because others think you should, you are making a huge mistake. You need to understand that if you keep doing this, you are never going to be truly happy. You need to be living the life and having the career that makes you happy. The voices that you hear inside yourself, which tell you to pursue a certain profession or be a certain thing, are often not your own voice. They are the voices of your parents; they are the voices of your peers in school; they are the voices of the people you associate with at work.
Why do you do what you do? Easy question but sometimes you may not like the answer.
Tablet and E-Book Reader Ownership Nearly Doubles
The share of adults in the United States who own tablet computers nearly doubled from 10% to 19% between mid-December and early January and the same surge in growth also applied to e-book readers, which also jumped from 10% to 19% over the same time period.
The number of Americans owning at least one of these digital reading devices jumped from 18% in December to 29% in January.
Faithful followers are aware this author abandoned his Read a Book a Week project sometime in 2011. Workload got very busy so I ultimately had to trade non-work reading time for revenue. Not a bad trade-off but I still miss my recreational reading time.
I’ve owned a Kindle for over a year now and received a smart phone this past Christmas. I can now access my Kindle books on my phone. We’ll see if this helps me read more books this year.

Do Positive Emotions Increase Life Satisfaction?
The answer is yes and they do it by building resilience. University of North Carolina professor Barbara Fredrickson has spent the past two decades looking into why we have positive emotions and what we do with them. She even has her own term for her work: positivity.

DIY investing and the IKEA effect – Abnormal Returns
This idea that more effort equals better outcomes or better quality seems to be inherent in us humans.

Kind of a spin on the old saying of “work smarter, not harder”.
BTW the “IKEA effect” doesn’t exist in Oklahoma because the closest IKEA is 200 miles away in Dallas.
MedPage Today Blogs – Health News Watchdog
We’re going to see a lot of these “what to do in the New Year” health tips columns. We hope more of them are more evidence-based than this one was. And we hope that journalists don’t act on these news tips without doing their own homework on the state of the evidence.
