How to be a startup rebel - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog Last year I spoke at the Happy Startup Summer Camp an awesome event for startups who want to do things differently. I also did a workshop on happiness at work at the camp (happiness being the foundation of success for any startup) but in my main speech I focused on how to be a startup rebel. Because lets face it: Starting your own company requires you to take risks, ignore any-sayers and not be afraid to be yourself. You can see the whole speech above. Thanks for visiting my blog.

It's great and it's free :-)Share this:LinkedInFacebookTwitterRedditPinterest Related

Video Mistakes and Tricks to Building A GREAT Job Search Routine

Video Mistakes and Tricks to Building A GREAT Job Search Routine Mistakes and Tricks to Building A GREAT Job Search Routine Mistake #1: Not building a variety of activities, relying on one or two things. Think about this as a portfolio of activities. No one thing works by itself. Even if one technique worked for you in the past, its a new game out there. Mistake #2: Not adding newer job search techniques, just staying within your comfort zone. Mistake #3: Getting distracted. Question: Is this job search really that important to you? Tricks: 1. Have a routine. For some of you, it means getting up in the morning, getting dressed for your job, getting coffee, and sitting down to do Job Number One, your job search. For others, it means going to the library from 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. Set alarms, use your calendar, and be maniacal about each hour. 2. Set up a place to work. This can be a virtual office, too. Grab a box with file folders, this book, and other items you need to work remotely if your house does not have the space you need. 3. Set priorities. List out all that you need to do and put an A next to the most urgent, B for next most important, and C for things that can wait. No more than 3 categories. 4. Turn off distractions. Cells, TVs, music, children, pets, noises, crowds.
