Feeling the love today 💖 So thankful to be a part of such a supportive team that encourages me to be the best version of myself. When I first accepted this job as a Staffing Recruiter, I wasn't sure what to expect. Throughout my career as an internal recruiter I was told the grind wouldn't be for me, or I wouldn't like the fast pace because I wouldn't have an opportunity to connect with my candidates. Fast forward one year and I can honestly say, I'm the best Recruiter I've ever been. I use tools and sourcing methods that internal recruiting peers only talked about, but never put into practice. My candidates appreciate the time I take to understand their skill sets, explain the job, and pipeline them for future roles. And I just LOVE working across multiple industries! It also doesn't hurt that everchanging priorities (sometimes by the hour), compliments my ADHD and short attention span. *Oooo something new and shiny!!!* This goes to show you that just because someone thinks something is undesirable for THEM and makes a quick judgement about YOU, doesn't mean they are right or that you will feel the same way. Sometimes, you gotta see for yourself. I'm so happy I did. Cheers to One Year 🥂 Did you know we're hiring?? Join my team as a Staffing Manager or Recruiter and let's reach new heights TOGETHER! #appreciation #anniversary #werehiring Jan A. Davis 〰 Edwin Soriano 〰 Diane Catalan 〰 Luis Mendoza

I was part of an interesting LinkedIn experiment yesterday. I happened to post something right around the same time as Darren McKee made the post below, he happened to see it, and then was kind enough to not only react, but to comment on my post. Twice. So naturally, I was excited and waited all day for my post to explode in popularity amongst his 100,000 plus followers. Funny thing, though. It didn't. It has had about 1,000 impressions, which is pretty normal for me, but they were all from the same titles, locations, and companies I usually see, and all but one of those that reacted were people I'm already connected to. Here's what I learned: 1) I have no idea how this algo really works. I'm sure there was some impact from Darren's reactions, just not what I expected. Maybe more of my network saw it because Darren saw it, not necessarily more of his. That's interesting. 2) It was a pretty average post, so I shouldn't be surprised that it got an average reaction. Just because someone with a big following happens to react doesn't change that fact. 3) I'm grateful that Darren and others in my network choose to interact with my content while I continue to learn how to produce it. This is pretty special place. Like Darren said, WE is greater than ME. I don't need to go viral to prove that. Safe travels my friends.

These five financial points are highly important for investors as they emphasize simplicity, essential insurance coverage, avoiding ego-driven purchases, critical thinking with financial advice and maintaining financial discipline by avoiding risky trading practices. Implementing these lessons can significantly impact an investor's financial well-being and long-term success.

RIP an original thinker. Let me share a brilliant insight from Daniel Kahneman which I heard on the The Economist podcast Boss Class. When he got his team together to develop new thinking and write the book Thinking Fast and Slow he asked them all how long they thought it would take. Estimates coalesced around 18 months. (For those that don't know the book, it popularised the idea of System 1 and System 2 thinking, the basis of much behavioural science.) He then went to the principal at his college and asked how long such projects usually take. He said only 40% ever finished a book and the range was 7-10 years. Which was exactly how long TFAS took to complete. The lesson he took away: don't trust gut instinct! Optimistic planning is usually an inside view rather than an objective outside view, reality checked and based on hard evidence.

Was just reading the foreword by Doug Tallamy...WOW! Here's a small sample... “Every once in a while, a book comes along that meets an important need most people don’t know they have. Sarah Jayne’s Nature’s Action Guide is such a book. Sarah could have called her book Conservation for Dummies—not that she wrote it for true dummies, but because she has identified a subject everyone needs to know but almost no one was ever taught: how to share our spaces with the natural world.” … “Sarah wrote Nature’s Action Guide as a complement to my book Nature’s Best Hope. My last chapter suggested 10 things homeowners could/should do to help share their property with nature. After reading my book, Sarah set about trying to enact each of these suggestions in her own yard but quickly realized that, even as an experienced gardener, she didn’t know enough to be successful. And if she didn’t know enough, many other budding conservationists were likely to struggle as well. Sarah’s solution was to write Nature’s Action Guide, a step-by-step, easy to use manual that explains how each of us, regardless of our background or gardening experience, can accomplish all of the goals I propose in Nature’s Best Hope, as well as several I only hinted at! Restoration biology is a relatively young scientific discipline a few decades old. Practicing restoration in human-dominated landscapes, in comparison, is in its infancy and we are still learning what works and what doesn’t work. One of its many distinguishing features is that Nature’s Action Guide is current, explaining state-of-the-art conservation in suburbia with the most up-to-date best-practices available. Even a half-hearted attempt to follow Sarah’s action items is guaranteed to improve the biodiversity potential of your landscape and thus the productivity of your local ecosystem. For this, we all owe Sarah Jayne our heartfelt thanks and gratitude—because, whether we appreciate it or not, we all depend on those same ecosystems.” Douglas W. Tallamy
