¿Quieres tener más éxito? Lee más.
¿Saben una cosa? En toda mi vida nunca he conocido a una persona con éxito financiero que no lee en abundancia. Leer te ayuda a tener un conocimiento amplio de la vida, de los negocios, de la ciencia, y cualquier otro tópico que leas. En mí opinión, si quieres tener éxito, tienes que aprender a…

¿Quieres aumentar tu sueldo más de 50%? Busca trabajo en otra empresa.
En todos los años que tengo trabajando como programador o desarrollador de software, los mejores aumentos los he recibido cuando he cambiado de trabajo. Así es, y no me refiero a un cambio de posición en la misma empresa, me refiero a cambiar de empresa a una posición similar o mejor. El problema con esperar…

A Saturday on Stevens Pass
It’s been two weeks since it last snowed (surprisingly) in Seattle and my family and I were already missing it. Truth is that snow days aren’t a common thing within Seattle city limits, but if you drive a little outside of the city limits then you’ll find plenty of powder. My wife, Felly and I…
