Subaru is designed to meet help you modify hack enhance or otherwise improve upon products or processes in your daily life. Think of it like silly putty except it gets hard after just a few hours.</p><p>The smart hacks super pack, contains 12 5g sachets of Sugru in black blue green and orange. They claim that it will bond to aluminum steel and ceramic glass would leather some fabrics and plastic. I can&#8217;t wait to see what “activities” I can get up to with this awesome product.</p><p>You should check out YouTube for videos related to Sugru -  people have done some pretty amazing things. I think one of my favorite is the iPhone 4 protector where this guy puts pieces of Subaru around the edges of his iPhone so that when he lays it down it doesn&#8217;t scratch the glass surface or the outback of his phone. I hope to be this creative in my usage of super.</p><p><a

href="http://www.cbs.com/primetime/undercover_boss/">Undercover Boss </a>just shook my cage. I have been following the 4 Hour Work Week low information for over 4 years now.  I own a TV but I don&#8217;t have cable so it keeps things simple &#8211; every now and then I log onto Hulu and watch the shows I remember liking from back when I was watching TV.  Every now and and then I hear about a show from a friend that they tell me I need to watch.  Mind you, it has been a while since someone makes a great recommendation.  The show is Undercover Boss on ABC, I watched five episodes on TV.com</p><p>TV should inspire and inform and create some emotion but I never expected to actually get teary eyed watching the show.  For those of you who don&#8217;t know about it &#8211; CEO&#8217;s of major corporations who have been separated from the actual processes and people that make their organizations run take a week off and go undercover.  They strip themselves of titles and rank and head to the trenches to work with honest people who are just trying to make a living.  Think of it as a lesson in reality for the big bosses.</p><p>The Undercover Boss gets to work along side a typical worker doing the typical job of the company.  Most of the time they fail miserably at the line or production work &#8211; these are muscles and skills that they have not worked in a long time &#8211; and for some of them, they have never used these skills.  But the one think that each Undercover Boss does get other than a lesson is humility is a lesson in humanity.  It is the understanding and the personalization of the people who they have never met.   Think of it as a way to &#8220;walk a mile in my shoes&#8221; and learn how your business really operates.</p><p>Most of the people that we are introduced to have a story, be it medical issues like kidney problems, money issues, mortgage problems, deaths in the family &#8211; and this is before they even show up to the office.  I have always been a softy, but this is tear creating television.  A huge dose of reality.</p><p>I have been the CEO of a small company and I know how tough it is to understand the problems in a small organization &#8211; these guys have huge companies, they are just too insulated.   My feeling is that all CEO&#8217;s should take a lesson in humility and learn how the processes or procedures that they put in place impact personnel, productivity, the customer and the business as a whole.   Your business is really never to small to understand how to make it better by listening.</p><p>Related posts:<ol><li><a

href="http://www.bradslavin.com/2010/03/28/keeping-your-network-warm/">keeping your network warm</a>.   One of those personal letters was to my aunt.   She and I have been exchanging emails for a few weeks now.  I just found out that she had major surgery and no one in this side of the family even knew about it.</p><p>In one of my updates about my life I sent her an email about my relationships.</p><p>As for me &#8211; Lisa and I are still dating, it has been just about 2 1/2 years at this point.  Almost the entire relationship has had her in grad school so weekends and evenings have been a bust.  Typically we only see each other on weekends school is about 40 minutes away from my place and 15 from hers&#8230;as you can imagine she spends weekdays at her place.</p><p>I think the problem for people in my generation is just to much variety.   We are told in our teens that getting married in our early twenties is like our parents is &#8220;just too soon&#8221; and by the time our mid to late twenties have hit we have racked up 10-15 relationships &#8211; each with their own experiences, their own joys and pain.   I know the old adage &#8220;it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all&#8221;  - but I think in this case it is information overload.   It is like test driving 10 cars in a weekend or seeing 10 prospective houses in a relatively short amount of time.   Each one on it&#8217;s own would be perfect, each one unique with its own quirks and nuances &#8211; but when asked which one are we going to choose&#8230;they all just blend in and the brain goes into overload.</p><div><p>How does the brain then cope?  Well I think it starts by making comparisons &#8211; taller / shorter &#8211; fatter / thinner &#8211; blond / redhead &#8211; and we make little disqualifying statements about what we think we like just as a filter &#8211; but without real understanding.  At the end we compare the personality of one to the smile of the other, never mind boobs and technique.  It is absolute information overload.   In the end, and in my case you end up settling for the middle of the road &#8211; passionless or boring and without common goals and getting divorced just a few short years later.</p><p>You wear divorce as a badge of honor, that despite the huge number of fish in the sea that you were able to find one, they agreed and you went down the aisle.  Very few people that I have met actually care about the whole divorce issue, it&#8217;s just sort of a life lesson and time to move on.</p><p>I look at friends in my group there are the almost 30&#8217;s who are dying to get married because of some social expectations and then there are the 31+ who are a little sad that it did not happen, and by 37 there is almost a sense of serenity.. &lt;br/&gt;But I am rambling.  I am happy, school will finish soon and things will get better as far as spending more time together and taking our relationship to the next level.</p></div><p>No related posts.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.bradslavin.com/2010/03/28/why-are-there-so-many-singles-in-their-30s/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Fear of Getting Fired</title><link>http://www.bradslavin.com/2010/03/21/fear-of-getting-fired/</link> <comments>http://www.bradslavin.com/2010/03/21/fear-of-getting-fired/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 22 Mar 2010 03:55:02 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>admin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[15 Minutes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[fear]]></category> <category><![CDATA[my life]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.bradslavin.com/?p=753</guid> <description><![CDATA[I am about 45 minutes into the Movie Up in the Air oh-man what a heartbreaking movie thus far.  The part that was the most disturbing was the part where people are asking what they should be doing that day after they have been fired.  They are devastated by the news that the company that [...]Related posts:<ol><li><a

href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1193138/"> Movie Up in the Air</a> oh-man what a heartbreaking movie thus far.  The part that was the most disturbing was the part where people are asking what they should be doing that day after they have been fired.  They are devastated by the news that the company that they are invested in, the company that they have worked so hard for is letting them go.</p><p>Maybe the reason that this was so powerful is that in my short career I have fired 27 people.  Most of them were &#8220;for cause&#8221; &#8211; but the actual reasons escape me right now.   Just how valid were the reasons for letting them in the big picture?</p><p>I have never been on the receiving end of a firing but it does not mean that I did not worry about it.  Part of the reason that I quit my last job was the innate fear in the back of my head that I was going to get fired, not for performance &#8211; quite the contrary but because the job was well done and no longer needed.</p><p>It is one of the biggest fears that I have&#8230;not being useful or needed.  I never want to be in the position that what I do is not valuable or needed; this is why I own my own business.   Part of me believes that as long as clients keep getting value and that I add benefit to our relationship &#8211; while we adjust and chance to the business climate.</p><p>Is there truth to the statement that &#8220;Anybody who ever built an empire, or changed the world, sat where you  are now. And it&#8217;s because they sat there that they were able to do it.&#8221;  But it is heartbreaking to see it even if on the screen, I am now about an hour and forty five minutes into the movie where he  realizes that his world has just come crashing down.   There is a part  of not knowing what you want in life that adds to the question of safety  and security.</p><p>Family fixes all.</p><p>Related posts:<ol><li><a

I am really happy that I am on this journey &#8211; I feel amazing.  I did a little bit of a cheat today, I had steamed artichokes and brussel sprouts &#8211; it seems so pathetic to think that my CHEAT on this cleans has been to eat cooked veggies.  I am pathetic.</p><p>Welcome to Day 13 of the Purification Program.</p><p>You are 9 days away from meeting your goal.  From here on out,  unless you are feeling bad (in which case you need to discuss your  situation with your health care provider), we want to begin preparing  you for completion of the purification program.</p><p>Some people just cross the finish line, are happy they have  completed the program and go back to their normal lifestyle.  If this is  what you are aiming for, no problem.  However, most want to capitalize  on this as the first step in a new direction.  They want to maintain the  results and begin their journey towards maximizing their genetic  potential.</p><p>So, how do you maintain the results you have  achieved thus far?  Do you want to continue losing weight?  Do you want  to come off hypertension medications, antacids or anti-depressants?   Well, we are going to provide guidance to help you over the coming week.</p><p>First, and most important, you need to schedule testing with the  doctor who has put you on the medications you are wanting to work  towards getting off of.  At the conclusion of this program you will be  in the optimal position to be tested.  Make sure you have your  appointments set before you come off the purification program (ideally  on the last day or two of the program.)</p><h2>How Should I Feel  Today?</h2><p>Not to sound like a broken record, but today  should be more of the same.  You are one day closer to completing the  program and, to be blunt, here&#8217;s how you should be feeling…</p><p>You should feel more in control, more at ease, more at peace with  your own body, more charismatic, more sensual and overall just more  alive!  In other words, you should be feeling GREAT!  The good news is  that this great feeling should continue on through the rest of the 21  days and beyond the conclusion of the program, assuming of course that  you incorporate some of the changes you have made into your everyday  life.</p><h2>Weight Loss</h2><p>Are you using your newfound energy for working out?  I know we  have mentioned this multiple times, but sweating is KEY to losing  weight.  Drink lots of water and sweat, sweat, sweat.</p><h2>Reminders</h2><p>If you are experiencing constipation, remember to drink at least  64 ounces of water per day.  In addition, be sure to eat plenty of  vegetables and fruits with high fiber content.  Eating a beet a day will  also encourage regular bowel movements.  Talk with your health care  professional for other recommendations.</p><h2>Recipe  of the Day</h2><p><strong>Chicken Piccata</strong></p><p>Ingredients:</p><table

Today is the 10th day and I get to eat meat on the 11th day.  I am a little pissed actually I had been living into the future where I was going to be eating fish.</p><p>Depressed but feeling fine.</p><p>Welcome to Day 10 of the Purification Program.</p><p>If you are planning on introducing lean protein such as chicken  or fish into your purification program, you are only one day away.  At  this point most people can&#8217;t wait!  So that you can plan your shopping,  remember, you should choose organic, free-range, antibiotic-free and  hormone-free protein sources if possible.  Things to be avoided are  cured, smoked or luncheon meats.</p><h2>How Should I Feel  Today?</h2><p>The main thing you are probably feeling today  is a craving for meat.  Other than that, you should be feeling strong  and energetic.  This is an important day, as you should be feeling good  before you begin to reintroduce meat into your diet.  If you do not feel  like your energy has returned, speak with your health care professional  before reintroducing meat tomorrow.</p><h2>Weight  Loss</h2><p>As you progress through this program, you may  desire to add additional weight loss support products.  You can do this  during the purification program or afterwards.  These products are  available from Julie.  Finally, today we are discussing the third body  type.</p><p>If your weight is primarily in your hips and  butt, this is a problem with ovaries in women and testicles in men and  is an indication of estrogen dominance.</p><p>Women,  discuss the following protocol with Julie.</p><table
