Friday Curiosities, 7

1. Discovering what you really want to do absolutely, definitely requires doing a fair bit of what you don't want to do.
2. Love is actually all around. Open your eyes. And your heart. Oh, and your arms.
3. History is better when you have lived a bit of it.
4. Interviewers find it incredibly hard deciding on the right candidate. Your job is not to (just) impress them with your qualifications but make it easy for them to choose you. And people being people, that's getting them to like you because you are smart, effective and balanced.
5. Sex, drugs and rock n' roll are all about getting a high. Bizarrely so is bringing a great product to market, closing a deal and helping a buddy find a job after redundancy.
6. Your job is 25% more enjoyable when you decide to enjoy it.
7. Pick a song. Any song. The Beatles back-catalogue has the answer you need.
