Once upon a time, a phone was just a phone. The exact when of that once-upon-a-time depends on how far back you travel between now and Alexander Graham Bell. For some, it’s when phones were chunks of Bakelite with rotary dials, while for others the cut-off point is when phones started to offer more than calls, text, and playing “snake”. Today, that’s what we call a basic phone. And it’s making a comeback.

Imagine writing a book and putting it out into the world for people to enjoy. But then someone takes the book, blends it with another similar story, and then sells it, makes a movie of it, and starts selling merchandise, all without payment or even mentioning your name. You would be rightfully miffed.

It seems to me that friendship is becoming a lost art. Even the word ‘friend’ has been downgraded by social media. But friendship is essential if we are to thrive and flourish as human beings – and as leaders.

Happiness as an emotion is inherently transient. It is a fleeting feeling rather than a sustainable state. Having spent decades working with high-achieving individuals, I’ve observed that dissatisfaction often stems not from a lack of success, but from an imbalance in how we engage with life that in turn leads to a lack of meaning.

Comments Off on Why You’re Searching for More (And What to Do About It)
By Amanda Hamilton, Patron of NALP (National Association of Licensed Paralegals)
Paralegals are an essential part of the legal sector. Being a paralegal is a career path in its own right, and embracing and welcoming paralegals within the profession is a win-win for all. People currently entering the sector, whether they are graduates or career changers, are choosing to become professional paralegal practitioners, meaning that their ambition is not to qualify as a solicitor, but instead, to specialize in one or two areas of law and offer their specialist services to solicitors, in-house legal departments, or to the public. This can add value to a law firm, make it financially viable for an in-house department and, indeed, offer access to justice at a reasonable cost to consumers.

It is folly for a company to attempt to scale without addressing their financial structures. To understand why finance is so crucial, let’s look at the typical evolution of a tech company.
Most start in what we might call the ‘Hero Hacking’ phase. A few talented programmers—the kinds of people who will accept lower pay and work late nights to perfect a product—build solutions for one or two key clients who bring in most of the money. The financial model is simple: keep the customers happy, and the money keeps flowing.
