Let AI discover values

Image
To continue to this analytical journey, a large set of content can be overviewed by AI routines. There is a typical kind of tool for the corresponding content type that you have. Let’s assume that you have news about the market in the form of text. This information can be derived from websites, studies, reports, blogs, books, or social networks. The later language processing AI robots are trained to understand the meaning similarities, used to discover topics, keywords, entities, measure sentiment, and do much more. For sake of simplicity imagine that you recorded behavior data and can be compared to collective behavior measures of a group based on the content that they generate. Therefore, the main properties of the content are efficiently described with the help of AI summarization, top list of keywords, and topics. The following chart illustrates how such results make up a summary board. Compare your data to the community Sure, you can collect information with diligence and loo...

Values that count

Image
A good daily routine starts with a good impulse. After having a basic clarity of personal goals, we need to fine-tune those ones in the frame of the coming day. Still, there are many things that we can’t predict but leave that one to nature. Rather, try to predict your intended actions as a reflection of the most important values that are present in the flow of our life. To match the planned actions with the values it is needed to keep track of both. That doesn’t take big energy if strict control is made part of the daily routine. Rather than elaborating this small piece of the action as part of the constant habit, you can be positively addicted to it. While this piece of the can be the first event when you have a sense of how your plan works in real life. Consider that you have timely data about your inner compliance with your honest values. This data is nothing more just say yes or no to simple question whether you still believe in the goals being the majors drive of actions. Let ...

Simple reason why

We have learned to keep questioning the meaning of our work, it becomes a great trend to look under the hood, not just unfold our full energy to prove our skill to our close community. Understanding ourselves better and check the purpose of our routine tasks speeds up the learning through our career. How can that meaningful discovery leverage to next phase of a career? What exactly a successful career means considering it at any scale?

Despite the vast energy it takes, human nature insists on continuous improvement. The problem is the pace of the actions that we invest in our future. Even making small steps, good results necessitate relentless self-control and discipline. Whe...

Brain Impact Model

How much the human future protected against machines and what shall we do with the rest? After the digital revolution gave it a kickstart in the ’70s there were lots of predictions that kept scientists busy. Still, there is demand after a good model which describes the social-political-economical triangle in new integrity. The good model is simple and reliable, at least for a foreseeable time ahead. What would make this model even special is that it shall incorporate the digital trends, in large portions considering the impact of thinking-like computer algorithms to human existence? The new environment is virtually modeled by no longer three but four factors because AI has become so deterministic. Technology and nature These two categories a precisely separable. Nature is endless in time. By the human scale, we use to claim the start from the birth of earth and perceive the end of this planet in some 100 year’s distance. It describes well the attitude of mankind that we imagine ...

When is the best to ask why?

How to find the right momentum to start new things in business? There are smaller or bigger milestones in our career that we usually realize only in retrospective. Every moment that we live is singular but we are not able to have clarity and self-confidence to design the next step precisely. It is too complicated to put our situation in context and stick to the plan whatever happens. Nevertheless, a good career itinerary always helps to navigate our success and realize the right moments for bigger actions. In which part of the career cycle I am now? Let’s focus on the business career though it’s not strictly separable from social life. The progress of a career follows a periodic pattern that offers us the experience of good and bad. It is not that binary phenomenon rather a colorful journey. Much help is needed to understand whether we are in a stagnating phase of there is a booming opportunity just waiting on the doorstep. If the situation is not that disruptive then we are in ...

What have I learned from my 12 years old son during the holidays?

Image
I have just arrived home from a long trip and dropped in the room of my son for a chat before he fell asleep. He told me stories about what happened with him in the school. He performed really well and I become curious about his method of learning. I knew that he does not spend much time with learning at home. He has so many other interesting things to do. He revealed that he prepares himself in the school right before the class then he listens carefully to the teacher. To the end of the lecture he is in the state that the lesson is memorized. So, at home remain only few things to recap. I thought that this principle can be leveraged well at work, too. I immediately remembered the lengthy meetings when we spent a lot of time to recall the known facts which were communicated in advance. During my many years in the business I faced such situations when most of the participants did not prepare for the meeting. It is not only a disrespect to others but root cause of huge loss of time...
