What really causes unwanted behavior on the job? For many years companies have been searching for the answer to this question. Why do employees put themselves in harm's way, create a defective product or treat that customer in a terrible manner? What happened to common sense? Does it exist?

Over this past weekend, I had my annual “lunch on the lawn” party, big long tables in the garden laden with fresh food from the local farms and the ocean. It is an event people look forward to, so no one ever turns down the invitation. Note to readers — invite people to lunch on weekends. They are rarely booked, more relaxed, eat less, drink little, and stay for no more than three hours. It's also memorable because no one else does it.

My interviewee said that the quote was often attributed to Einstein, but he had seen variations of the quote.

When we build expectations into our relationships with family members, partners, or friends, we define it.

I once had as an account manager for a dotcom company, back when dotcoms were still new, and just before the bubble burst. I was single at the time, and I worked close to 12-hour days, seven days a week, by choice. I was on a steady diet caffeine, and fast food. I had no time to exercise, and spent most of my free time in front of a television set. I was exhausted all the time, and I never felt fully rested. And even though I was making a decent living, I never felt fulfilled. I became a workaholic.

After the death of a loved one, some people are tempted to sift through belongings and make decisions quickly. If this feels natural to you, fine (consider checking with a grief counselor before moving too quickly through the process).

Not all bosses are cut from the same marble. You’ve heard how other people complain about their superiors. But you’ve also heard how other people sing praises about theirs. If you have to choose between the two, you would naturally choose to be the boss they sing praises about. But what makes a great boss anyway?

Once there was a young boy who went through life feeling alone. Feeling as though he did not belong, and that everyone was busy doing this and that, but he did not fit in.

Tiredness comes from compulsively doing those things that are destroying your health and well-being. The person who is unable to separate himself from his compulsive tendencies is enslaved by his interior conditioning; conditioning that causes him to mechanically react to his exterior life.
