we kicked off the week with Ferderer won French open, Real signed Kaka, and future traders hinted that the Fed will raise target rate to 2.8% by Oct 2010. AND what’s more is!!! as of 6/9,traders see a 58% chance Bernanke will kickoff the show as soon as this coming nov!
I went to zurich the other day, everyone there was talking about “green shoots” recovery. I think that’s why we call them European. Of course I was at that luncheon with John O’Neil talking about “V” shape recovery, never miss any chance to have good cheese. Btw, O’Neil is coming to poison investors in Japan tomorrow, feel free to drop me questions if you have any...Speaking of which, peter kurz is also coming to poison us in a few days. I can pass on questions to mr. taiwan-reverse-indicator, too.
Long time ago s recommended this book, in one chapter, the author tries to provide solutions to common business problems based on Tibetan Buddhist principles. I’ve got one of the problems but don’t really get the solutions until most recently.
Business problem#39: you find yourself unable to take your well-deserved rest; you have trouble relaxing, and never really enjoy a vacation-a real leisure if beyond you.
Solution: To ability to relax, the skill of coming away from work and truly enjoying the leisure you have earned, is again something you can discover if you know how to plant the right imprints in your mind-it is not something automatic, it is not something that everyone is born with, and it is not a blessing bestowed only randomly among the population.
These particular imprints are planted, again, primarily by being watchful to speak only of those things which are meaningful, which have benefit-and to avoid talk which has no sense or point, whether it be gossip or silly ideas of plans that you never intend to act on anyway. The common thread here is a sense of purpose. The idea is to speak when there is a reason to speak, when there is a purpose or action to be fulfilled; the result that comes back to you then is a sense of contentment or fulfillment, for you have fulfilled your life and words.
Remember again that- if you are the kind of person who already normally speaks only when it is meaningful to do so-this is no ways means for sure that you have no older imprints from having indulged in useless talk in the past, or no previously minor imprints that have been in your subconscious for some time, picking up strength all the while, until they actually force you to see yourself as one of those sad people who is incapable of enjoying his or her rest.
It’s important to realize that-if you cant enjoy your rest-then you do have these imprints. The power of the imprints can be blocked by being very careful not to engage in any similar type of action at all: not a single word of useless of meaningless talk. Other people may be able to “ afford” it with their particular set of imprints, but you can’t. if you are bothered by the specific problem that corresponds to a particular imprint, then you-of everyone-must avoid even the slightest brush with this kind of imprint again.
