Long time no blog

It’s been a week or so I haven’t blog anything. There are some scattered pieces in my head, but I haven’t found good words to chain them together. Here are some of them:

• Incentives. I found this in Freakonomics. The more I read, the more I can into a conclusion that every system (man-made occurences) in this world is moved by incentives. Freakonomics is getting interesting for it forces me to think out-of-the-box. Like, managing risk. There is risk that we fear, but there is also risk that we want to avoid. It’s similar to knowing what we want and knowing what we need.

• Err, wth. I’ve already forgotten what to write here. Uh oh, Rockefeller Habits and Great Game of Business. I think I’ll read more on it later. The Rockefeller habits is a great source philosophy to learn and apply, eg: The right people doing the right thing right. And the latter, it answers my chicken-egg problem, which is actually very simple to solve. You know, I’ve these words: I love my company as much as my company loves me. it does look like chicken egg problem, right? While employee want to work only we he/she is paid good enough, the employer on the other hand need its employees to work hand first so it can pay its employees. Nope, it doesn’t need to be such complicated. Actually we can setup a simple rule which involves everybody in the company. Setup a minimal (yet make sense) requirement of performance, which everybody should contribute to. And setup a performance reward when this limit is achieved. This way, everybody will (hopefully) be motivated since anything he/she do will count. This limit/goal can be a simple as keeping sales performance, increase profit by x% or creates y% of efficiency. Simple, no?

The sky is blue, vast, yet limitless.
