.... ever succeeded in any sense of the word. So let us do one thing at a time, if we want to succeed in our work. Many successful men say that they owe much of their prosperity to the cultivation of good habits in early life. Here are some rules that are helpful in forming a good life. Here are some rules that are helpful in forming good habits. Honesty - "Honesty is the best policy" is a proverb to which we cannot well conform. There are so many temptations in the society that through a little carelessness we are led astray. Industry - every man, every woman, every boy and every girl, must have proper work to do. To do nothing and lie idle is to bring ruins upon oneself ....

.... the challenge to scientific economists with Robert L. Heilbroner’s words: “…They favor two-dimensional models that in trying to be scientific leave out too much and leave modern economists without a true understanding of how the system works.” Mr. Heilbroner believes that modern economists don’t include other fields like sociology, psychology or history to their work. According to him, today, the facts and numbers are considered too much, and the morals and the society’s long term benefits are squeezed out. Math and computers have taken over noneconomic motives and the changes in the forces of human nature haven’t taken into account in the process of developin ....

.... are normally aimed towards the middle/upper class in a community. This is why we normally find them in richer communities (i.e. England, USA). The concept of a market economy is to allow people to get through life by themselves. Government usually does little to change the economy, and, the control is given to the people with the money, or, rather, the people with the businesses. The main people in such an economy are usually the consumers, the producers, the owners of private property, and, the government. These are the people with the power. The whole system revolves around private gain rather than the interests of everyone in a community. Since the rich are in contr ....

.... giving way for the need to be prepared for change at all time. The same concept applies for change in the business world and in organizations. There is an ancient Chinese saying that states "may you live in interesting times". This epigram is in no doubt a reflection of today's business world. The business world of about forty years ago did not regard the issue of change management, due to the fact that the existence of change in the business world was not as prominent as it is today. Those businesses operated in a relatively stable environment meaning that there was a certain level of predictability, making change a disregarded issue. However with new forces coming int ....

.... payments. Few people understand the devastating effects of compound interest. The debt, at a compound rate of 10%, doubles in seven years, quadruples in fourteen years, and is eight times as much in twenty-one years. This creates great difficulty for governments to slow the debt, much less eliminate it. Our federal debt grows all by itself to the tune of approximately ninety million dollars every day. This may seem hard to digest, but it is reality. The need for debt elimination is vital if Canada wants to free up billions of dollars being spend on interest payments. Two approaches may be taken to this. First, an increase in government revenues through higher taxati ....

.... model was that of the autocrat. Management, primly senior management, decided how the business was to operate, including what the policies and objectives were; how it was organized; what jobs were established; and how should they be done. It was an unquestioned axiom that if everyone did what the upper management required, the business would be successful. Organizations are composed of the people in them and the managers who lead them. People respond strongly to leadership expectations and rewards. If they are given little power in their jobs, they have little interest in improving them. If leaders exhort the members for better output but reward (promotions, bon ....

.... to convene at 7:30 p.m. At the earlier meeting, Wayne Yeoman, senior vice president for finance, had spent most of the time outlining the details of Texas Air's offer to buy Eastern. Frank Lorenzo and Frank Borman had been talking since December originally about consolidating the computerized reservation systems, then , as Eastern's problems deepen, about a possible sale. As Frank entered his office, he found his his loyal excutive assistant; Wayne Yeoman; and Dick Magurno, Eastern's senior vice president for legal affairs. For about 20 minutes the three discussed the fourthcoming meeting and the prospects for saving the airline ....

.... the problem is though, where is this money going to come from. Retirement income has become one of the major public policy issues of our times. This reflects older citizens’ legitimate concerns about having enough income in their retirement, and policy makers’ and taxpayers, concerns about how public contributions to retirement are to be funded with an aging population. Providing for retirement in New Zealand can be grouped into three major categories. 1.) Public Pensions 2.) Private and Occupational Pensions 3.) Private Investment and Savings. Until 1898 New Zealand had no public pensions. The expectation was that immigrants would provide for themselves and their ....
