What's Your "Obsession"?
Think you could find a job you love as much as coffee? Yesterday we wrote about tapping into the things you're passionate about for finding a job you love--but of course, that's not excluding those who already have a job they like. Not that he needed the money or anything, but filmmaker David Lynch turned his passion for coffee shaped itself into a new, very different career—which he writes about in this morning's Huffington Post "Obsessed" essay: "Coffee became tied to what I called "The Art Life," he writes.

The 10 Best Games for Learning About the Stock Market
Much like skydiving, playing the stock market is not an activity you want to learn through your mistakes. Fortunes are made and lost all the time by people who think (or thought) they had a handle on stock trading.

What goes around, comes around and my wonderful network has helped me in more ways than I can count.
An Introvert's Guide to Networking - Lisa Petrilli

I was a new college graduate working in the strategic planning division of a $10 billion company, and our business unit had been invited to a retirement party for one of the top executives. The gentleman retiring was someone I’d looked up to during my brief tenure, and I wanted him to know he’d made an impact on me.
