2018... New Year, but same old.

So at this point, I can keep up with blog posts every 2 years. LOL

Keeping with my tradition of New Year Realization for 2017 & 2018:

2017: "Embrace change." 

The world and technology is moving at a record pace. See the new, learn from it, adapt to it and protect yourself from it. Evolution works the same way, those that evolve move forward and those that do not, become extinct.

2018: "Don't believe everything you read on the internet." 

There is so much noise and so many bubbles, it has become a haven for "click bait" ads. Don't be baited. The only thing that affects you, affects you directly. Everything else is designed to make you angry.

Other than that, what has changed? Nothing much, the same life rules apply, see my 2016 post: https://goo.gl/Y8BJFd

Some good reminders below:
  1. Still need to complied a file of all your year end statements for the family or tell who manages the family finances they need to. 
  2. "The Brand Called You", still holds true. Makes sure your resume is updated, regardless if you are seeking employment or not. Opportunities come up so don't miss out. See this post: https://goo.gl/nuU9xr
  3. Personal security online still applies: https://goo.gl/8s0EbD (Due for an update, so that will be another post in 2018. Look out for it.)
Till my next post...
