I have never been to a stockholder's meeting, (most of them too far away), however am thinking of attending this one. Give me a clue as to what to expect. What all goes on? How long do they last? Is it business only, or business & socializing? Please fill me in on some details. Thanks.
Someone had it right (I forget who), and I had it wrong. I checked the FCC filing on the proposed Orbital wideband system called OrbLink.
It is a non-GEO as a recent poster thought. It is actually a MEO constellation, seven satellites in a single non-GEO EQUATORIAL plane at 9000 km altitude. The equatorial is what probably threw off the compiler of the table. They plan one on-orbit spare, and one ground spare. It is at V band: 37.5-38.5 GHZ downlink; 47.7-48.7 GHz uplink, with cross links at 65-71 GHz.
On another topic, I was recently trying to track down the number of someone at Hughes Space and Communications in
California, using some personal contacts. One call led to another, and one of the engineers talked very freely about things. He claimed
that, although it hadn't been announced or signed, Hughes was the leader for the Teledesic satellites, presumably the
communications package, although possibly the whole thing (bus, etc.). I asked about Boeing, but he insisted the word was that Hughes had
it. So, if Aviation Week is correct, and Boeing is out, then maybe it is Hughes, though I don't think we have the whole story
yet. But I seriously doubt that it's Orbital. The satellites are too big, especially now that there are fewer, and the orbit is
higher, and there are still too many satellites for a small company like Orbital (just my opinion). I also doubt that it's Motorola.
Teledesic is a direct competitor of Celestri, so I don't think they would go to Motorola for the satellites. Time will tell.
And other mixed metaphors
First, I'm in ORBI for the long haul -- I might nudge out when it's time to put a down payment on a house in 8 or 9 years. I'm a big fan of this company... I think its got everything going for it and... of any company in my portfolio, its the most likely to be the one that triples or quadruples in value over the medium term.
That said, I'd like to hear a little bit of information from folks who think ORBIs overvalued. Give me some reasons (like Seadog said, people may be waiting for some real earnings from Orbcomm... fair enough). If you want to say "Hey... you may want to think about... blahblah" do that. I'd like to hear it though I doubt I'll act on it. But don't scream for the exits, please. It's rather impolite.
And a 30% correction in ORBI isn't going to scare me off, either. Annoy me, yes... but it just means I'll buy in some more.
Ad Astra
Yukwee, call off your dogs. Methinks tthe message is clear. Of course, you are correct sir. Sure there is bound to be a bit
of a correction as people take profits but I imagine there will not be much of one. I, for one have no thought to take any
profit at this time. I have noticed that ORBI stock price moves pretty independant of the market so I don't really believe that a
market correction will affect ORBI for any great length of time. It will continue to move UP! You mention all the pies ORBI has
it's finger in. This is good as you point out that ORBI is much more than Orbcomm. I personally believe that ORBI is the most
solid space company there is to invest in. They know what they CAN do and do it. This is not a pie in the sky operation and
becomes less speculative each day. I'm with ya', yukwee, all the way. For 10 or 15 years at least. Anyone who jumps out at this
point is taking a long term loss for a short term gain. If that's their game so be it, but it will ultimatly be their loss!
Orbital is bringing space down to earth. Their proposals for their systems (Orbview - remote sensing, Orbcomm - wireless, Orblink - data communications) are not the far fetched investments as some of the others. They know what they can do as a company, they know how much they can afford and therefor leverage, and they know a market nitch when they see one!
I would like to thank those of you out there that bring the information to the table, everybody knows who you guys are and they also know those who don't do anything but wine wine wine.
And Orbital is very very hot!
You guys have to look at money like water. A little flows here and a little flows there. How much volume did we have
yesterday? Two times the daily average. WOW! Such a massive move out! If you have a better investment to make, THEN MAKE IT. Don't be
little monkeys running around banging away and getting in a frenzy. Orbital is am impressive company! Do you know how many
countries that would love to have the capability to put a giant cruses missle into space, or elsewhere... You guys don't get it. It
takes years of development and risks to make something like this work. And now they are leveraging their abilities. Orbcomm right
now is making money. They have one of three orbits filled with coverage of about half the day. Their getting providers on board
and countries. Orbcomm is now going to buy 12 more satellites and at least two more launches from Orbital. Wow! We get to have
our cake and eat it too. Gee there must be a reason for this to. I suspect they figure the DEMAND must be there for the wireless
tracking. And lets not forget the other business they are in. I'll bet half of the people on this thread don't even know of some of
the subisdiaries of subsidiaries of sub... I know I've tried to locate as many as I could. Also Orbital works very well with
industry and the millitary. Look at some of the advance projects going on and then look at who is paying for those and then look who
is going to benifit from those projects. Sure there are risks, but there is far less risk now that they have shown they can put
eight satellites up in one shot. Buy the way? Was that eight satellites for the price of one Pegasus launch. I'm very very
impressed. Could someone out there tell me who else has put up EIGHT satellites in one launch? Also the millitary has come a long ways
to help Orbital along. From my observations over the years, I believe the millitary wanted certain capabilities and Orbital was
a perfect vehicle to accomplish those goals. And don't forget NASA. Better CHEEPER and faster. I think thats Orbital theme
song. What a perfect match. Sure theres competition, and your looking at them. And as far as dramatic price swings, well I don't
see that. Just look at the chart.
I could go on and on and on. You guys get my drift. What I see is a bunch of investors who haven't been investing for a number of years and most importantly don't really know themselves as investors. You can't make big money without big risks. Find out what you like as risk and invest there. I'm no guru, but I know the risk I'm willing to take and I try to learn as much as I can.
I'm not worried about yesterday's action, which affected most hi-tech stocks. Actually, I'm not worried at all in the long term, as I holding ORBI well into the next decade. However, for planning purposes, what do you think will happen to ORBI later this year if, say, the Dow corrects 10% (almost a certainty) or 30% (possible)?
I have to laugh! Entire Tech sector is down & a few
people decide to take profits - And then you guys
come out of the woodwork, screaming like Chicken Little:
"The Sky is Falling, The Sky is Falling" - grow up!
There's gotta be a better way for you all to get some
entertainment! I'd suggest you go back to watching
cartoons or whatever it is you normally do & leave
the investing to adults.
Take your lame-brained attempts at head fakes elsewhere.
PS I don't mind opposing points of view, but they
need to be intelligent & rational, otherwise you
will just get ignored.
It's about time somebody
is getting real about all this astounding run-up in this little
company, If they haven't heard the news yet, they just don't have enough tools or are simply ignorant.
Fortunately I have had the good fortune to be able to attend the previous two meetings. They begin at 9:00 AM and usually
last about two hours. From about 8:30 to 9:00 there is a very nice opportunity to meet the management and the board of directors.
They have a nice Continental breakfast during that time as well. I have found all of the management and board members to be very
approachable and very pleased to see that I cared enough to attend. Frankly their attitude during these last two years is what kept me
from selling my stock. Keep in mind that last April at the time of the meeting that the price of ORBI was $14. After the
formalities of electing the board are completed, Mr. Thompson will review the year and set out goals for l998. I will be on hand this
year and for many years in the future,GOD WILLING. By the way the analysts will be there and will ask questions. Don't expect any
bombshells. I think the year just past has provided enough good bombshells already to last for awhile. On the otherhand it would be nice
to have a split announced at that time, wouldn't it? See you on the 23rd.
Looking forward to it.
Thanks for your comments on the last couple of annual meetings. I wish I could attend. I'm sure that I and many others would be interested to hear your impressions of this one. Of course the management is somewhat restricted in giving information and opinions, but perhaps they would be willing to comment about when they expect ORBCOMM, ORBIMAGE, and Magellan to become profitable (assuming the upcoming satelite launches are successful.)

|Ray Allen: 'I didn't expect to get booed the whole time'
|01.27.13 at 11:52 pm ET
All the mind games Ray Allen went through in an effort to get ready for returning to Boston couldn't prepare him for what he experienced Sunday each and every time he touched the basketball.
'I didn't know what to expect," Allen said. "The one thing I was gonna do is come into it and just focus on being prepared and getting the guys ready that were playing, that were starting the game. Early game is always tough regardless of the circumstances. I didn't expect to get booed the whole time, throughout the game, that I touched the ball. That was interesting.'
The day was the definition of surreal for Allen. There was walking into the visitors' locker room for the first time since he was with Seattle in 2007.
'It was very weird. And then going to the other locker room. It's been a long time since I've been on that side of the hallway, and again, it was an adjustment. The whole year's been an adjustment being in Miami after being in Boston for so long, so ya, it was definitely a weird feeling for me.'
There was the video tribute in the first timeout, when he was still on the bench. There were the boos reining down mixed with a standing ovation. And then there was the news breaking during the game of his former backcourt teammate Rajon Rondo out for the season with a torn ACL in his right knee. Ironic, considering how the two former teammates didn't exactly end things on the best of terms in Boston.
He did appreciate the video tribute.
'When you see something like that, you know when I saw it, just all those emotions came streaming back from all the great things we did here, and that's why I say I'll always remember the big games we played in and won, and I always know I'll always be a Celtic in my mind, regardless of what anyone else says."
As for the Rondo news, Allen was short and to the point.
'I didn't know until we got out onto the floor and he wasn't out on the floor," he said. "That was unfortunate.'
He was asked how difficult it will be for Celtics without Rondo.

|Avery Bradley: 'We have adversity, we overcome it all the time'
|01.27.13 at 11:12 pm ET
One of the many painful ironies of Sunday's stunning news that Rajon Rondo is done for the season with a torn ACL is who will be asked to step up and play a bigger role.
Avery Bradley's season didn't begin until Jan. 2 because of a pair of shoulder surgeries this past summer. One on his left shoulder ended his playoffs in May. Another in June on his right shoulder prolonged his downtime.
Now, it will be Bradley who will likely be the steadying force in the backcourt as the Celtics look to hold on in the final 38 games of the season for a playoff spot.
'Whatever Doc wants me to play, that's what I'm going to do," Bradley said of playing either shooting guard or point. "I'm going to go out there and give it my all. No matter if it's the '2' or the '1', I'm going to go out there and play as hard as I can.'
What the Celtics did Sunday to beat the mighty Heat in double overtime without Rondo will likely be the formula Doc Rivers calls upon to repeat itself down the stretch, tough defense from the likes of Bradley, Jeff Green and Courtney Lee.
'Like I always say, it shows what type of team we are," Bradley said. "We have adversity, we overcome it all the time. We had two back to back overtime games, you know we're tired. But we keep fighting, we play hard for each other no matter what. And it showed today when we got the win. Read the rest of this entry »
|Gut check: Paul Pierce, Celtics pull out 2OT thriller over LeBron James, Heat
|01.27.13 at 4:09 pm ET
Paul Pierce hit the go-ahead jumper with 30.4 seconds left in double-overtime and earned a triple-double with 17 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists as the Celtics snapped their six-game losing streak with a heart-pounding 100-98 win over the Heat Sunday at TD Garden. It was Boston's second straight double-overtime game.
LeBron James scored a game-high 34 points and forced overtime with a clutch 3-pointer while Ray Allen had 21 off the bench in his first return to Boston since leaving for Miami as a free agent, and help the Heat rally in the final minute of regulation. The Heat fell to 28-13.
Kevin Garnett scored a team-high 24 points and grabbed 11 rebounds for the Celtics, who could not protect a four-point lead in the final minute of regulation but managed to improve to 21-23 on the season.
The game was played under a cloud for the Celtics, as they found out in the second half that Rajon Rondo tore the ACL in his right knee and was done for the season. Rondo returned in the third quarter and watched the rest of the game from just behind the Celtics bench.
With Courtney Lee starting for Rondo and Jared Sullinger in the starting lineup, the Celtics stayed close in the first quarter, trailing by just four, 26-24, after 12 minutes. The Celtics managed to stay close in the second and forged a 45-45 tie.
WIth news breaking in the third quarter that Rondo had a torn ACL in his right knee and was done for the season, the Celtics managed to put up a fight taking a three-point lead. Garnett's jumper 16 seconds into the second half gave Boston its first lead since early in the first quarter. Boston built the lead to 60-57 before Miami finished the period on a 11-4 run to take a 68-64 lead into the fourth.
Jeff Green drilled a three from the left baseline to bring the Celtics within one, 72-71, and then after James missed a three, Leandro Barbosa put back a miss to give the Celtics a 73-72 lead with 8:26 left in the fourth. Green's one-handed slam over Chris Bosh with 7:48 left sent the Garden crowd into a frenzy and put the Celtics up, 75-72.
Pierce drove in for a go-ahead layup with just under six minutes left. Allen connected for a three with 4:38 left to put the Heat up, 78-77, and grabbed a rebound off a Pierce miss moments later. Jason Terry responded with a 15-foot step-back jumper to put Boston back up, 79-78, with just over four minutes left. James responded with a 12-foot fadeaway with three minutes left, putting Miami ahead, 80-79.
Garnett hit a pair of free throws with 2:40 left to put Boston back ahead, 81-80. Allen was fouled by Pierce with 2:19 remaining and Allen converted only one of two for an 81-81 tie. Pierce drove to the basket on a spinning move with 1:59 left to put Boston up, 83-81. After a missed three from Shane Battier, Garnett hit a mid-range jumper with 59.9 seconds left to give the Celtics their biggest lead, 85-81. Read the rest of this entry »
|Celtics confirm torn right ACL for Rajon Rondo, out for season
|01.27.13 at 2:37 pm ET
Rajon Rondo is out for the season after suffering a torn right ACL, the Celtics confirmed in the third quarter of Sunday's game with the Heat.
After getting a MRI at New England Baptist Hospital, the diagnosis was confirmed by team doctor Brian McKeon.
The Celtics said the star point guard would have surgery to repair the injury at an unspecified date.
Rondo returned to TD Garden in the third quarter in the warmups he was wearing when he left during pregame warmups, walking with a slight limp but no crutches. He walked down to the Celtics locker room on his own power.
Rondo came to the Garden Sunday morning for his normal pregame shootaround but went back in for more treatment on the knee as the pain continued in his right knee. He was taken to the hospital with a preliminary diagnosis of a hyperextended knee.
Courtney Lee started Sunday's game in Rondo's place. For more, visit the Celtics team page at weei.com/celtics.
|Rajon Rondo out with hyper-extended left knee, getting MRI
|01.27.13 at 12:55 pm ET
Rajon Rondo will not play Sunday's game against the Miami Heat due to a hyper-extended right knee suffered late in Friday double-overtime loss to the Hawks in Atlanta.
According to the Celtics, Rondo showed up for the normal shootaround at 10:15 Sunday morning and taped a pre-game interview for ABC. He went in for more treatment and the discomfort did not subside.
He left the building and went to New England Baptist Hospital for a precautionary MRI.
The Celtics added that the injury had nothing to do with his departure early in the game Friday due to illness. Rondo is averaging 13.7 points and 11.1 assists in 38 games this season.
Courtney Lee started for Rondo, marking the second major change to the lineup, as Jared Sullinger started in place of Brandon Bass.
|Doc Rivers hesitantly starts Jared Sullinger in desperate move to shake up his Celtics
|01.27.13 at 12:39 pm ET
Doc Rivers admitted Sunday morning that's he's desperate to shake up his struggling Celtics.
And sometimes that means making moves you don't want to make.
Sunday, Rivers took Jared Sullinger out of his comfort zone off the bench and placed him in the starting lineup to add some energy to a team that has lost six straight.
"More because Jared is playing well," Rivers said. "Honestly, I don't love it because I worry about our bench. Our bench has been off the charts and that may affect them. But we're doing it because he's been playing so well."
Sullinger has hit a speed bump in his last two games, being held scoreless in the double-overtime game against the Hawks Friday night and scoring just seven points with three rebounds in 15 minutes Thursday against the Knicks.
Rivers said he didn't make the move just to give the team a spark against LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.
"Not much," Rivers said. "Just the way our starters were playing, I thought our lineup needed a shaking up. I'm really doing it cautiously because I just think at some point our starters will find themselves. The one thing I always worry about is our bench. Our bench has been off the charts. The one thing about the Atlanta game, it was a six-point [lead] when they came in and it was 27 points when they left. You don't hear that a lot from a bench."
"We just took the game for granted."
|Ray Allen warms up before Sunday's game
|01.27.13 at 11:52 am ET
Heat sharpshooter Ray Allen warms up before Sunday's game with the Boston Celtics at TD Garden. Sunday marks Allen's return to Boston for the first time since signing as a free-agent with the world champion Heat last summer.
Allen admitted that he doesn't expect the reception in the Garden to be very warm when he takes the parquet for the first time since signing with Miami.
Allen had 19 points on 5-of-7 shooting in 31 minutes against the Celtics in the season opener on Oct. 30 in Miami. That was the game most-famously remembered for the cold shoulder Kevin Garnett gave Allen when Allen checked in for the first time in the first quarter.

Skip to comments.Jonathan Quick rips Team USA's effort in loss to Finland
Posted on 02/22/2014 11:19:09 AM PST by rickmichaels
Jonathan Quick will leave Sochi empty handed, but not quietly.
Humiliated after a 5-0 loss to Finland in the Olympic bronze-medal hockey game Saturday, the U.S. goaltender harshly criticized his teams effort a day after losing to Canada in the semifinals.
It shouldnt be too hard, he told NBC. We do that all year long. Were professionals. We play back-to-backs all year long.
Theres no reason we show up and not piss a drop.
Quick also took responsibility for his own play.
My job is to stop the puck, and I didnt do that very well, the Los Angeles Kings goalie said. He gave up all five goals Saturday on 29 shots. Team effort. We werent good.
Quick put in a remarkable performance Friday against the Canadians he stopped 36 of 37 shots but received no offensive support as the Americans were shut out in their last two games.
It was quite disappointing to watch both yesterday and today.
From 20 goals the first four games to Zero the last two.
They have a reputation for being a "Gold or nothing" team that quits and mails it in once they are eliminated from gold medal contention.
The performance from all the skating sports was down right embarrassing. I hope they got their participation awards.
If that's true, then he's an A-hole and has no business criticizing anyone else for their effort.
"Show me a graceful loser and I'll show you a loser."
Leo Durocher
The USA skaters were pathetic in the Canada game, they either mailed it in, or just didn't have it. Quick kept them in the game, their performance was so poor I didn't even make an attempt to see todays game.
Theres no reason we show up and not piss a drop.
What a strange turn of phrase.
These are all pros? Do all the Countries that are major contenders field all pro hockey teams?
Because I hate that.
Didn't that guy manage in baseball for something like 50 years, with only a single World Series championship? LOL.
Not much of a hockey expert but it seemed we lacked a bit on the offensive end (perhaps that's why we had the same guy take no many shootout shots vs. Russia)on this team. As for the Canada it was perhaps the most lopsided 1-0 game I ever saw. In the 3rd period they never gave one the impression they were going to tie the game. I did not see this mornings game but was not surprised at the lose.
Not a great talent as a player, but as a manager, Durocher won pennants with the Dodgers in the late forties, then won pennants with the Giants in 1951 and 1954, even though the Dodgers had far superior talent. In the fifty four world series, his Giants beat the heavily favored Cleveland Indians in four straight games.
I believe the 1954 World Series was the only one Durocher ever won as a manager. It's ironic that a guy who was such a fixture in Dodger history never won a championship with them, but did win one while managing their hated cross-town rivals. LOL.
Just wasn't impress with coaching - line changes should have been made midway through the 2nd period. But hey....Quick was the bomb!
The biggest criticism against the U.S. should be brought on their coaching staff, more than anything else. For those Freepers who aren't hockey fans, hockey has an interesting rule that gives a subtle advantage to the home team in a game. It's called the "last change" rule, and it works like this: Before every faceoff after a stop in play, the coach of the visiting team sends his players out onto the ice. The referee then raises his hand to indicate that the visiting team cannot change any players at that point, and the home team then has the option of changing their own players based on who is on the ice for the opposing team.
The implication of this is that the home coach should always be looking to match his lines up in a way that works to his advantage. If the visiting team puts their best offensive players on the ice, the coach of the home team will try to respond by putting his best defensive players out there. The reverse is also true: when the visiting team puts their best defensive players out on the ice, the home coach will try to keep his best offensive players on the bench until he can get a more favorable matchup.
Obviously, this strategy only applies after whistles when the play stops, and all bets are off once teams start "changing on the fly" while the puck is still in play.
When the U.S. played Canada yesterday, the U.S. was the "home" team. And yet U.S. coach Dan Bylsma never tried to use this line-matching strategy to keep the top U.S. offensive line away from the Toews-Marleau-Carter line that played so well defensively for Canada.
Any of the 4 semifinalists could win the gold....the US played 2 crappy games, and Quick kept CAN from blowing out the US
They seemed very dejected after yesterdays loss. With both the USA Women & Canada and with the USA Men in Canada yesterday they just couldn't get it in the net . . . it was like some invisible shield/force was keeping the puck out and THEN today . . . it was hard to watch.
USA Choked on ICE This Olympics in Sochi Hockey Speed Skating etc..and the Freak Johnny Weir wearing Lipstick and Tiaras and Pearls turned me off from the Winter Olympics
Durocher's greatest regret was not being able to win a pennant for Cubs Phil Wrigley, the Cubs owner. He had a lot of respect for Wrigley (probably a first for Durocher). The Cubs seemed to be on their way to a their only pennant in 1968, but the Miracle Mets blew past them late in the season and couldn't be caught. That really hurt, said Durocher.
I just could not take Weir. I had to leave the room or change the channel when he was on. God, NBC should be ashamed, but you know they are patting themselves on the back for being so "gay friendly". I hope that a few of the NBC types were gagging along with the rest of us, but I would not bet on them having enough stones to say so.
Durocher was a loser of a human being.
Nah, he's right, US and Canada was the gold medal game. The only two teams that mattered heh.
Then why is he complaining when the U.S. didn't show up to play today in the bronze medal game? LOL.
Does the STD they contracted while using a cellphone hookup app count?
The US didn't have Okposo, who as of the Olympic break starting, is 3rd among American players in points.
US Committee sure didn't pick all the best players.
US Committee sure didnt pick all the best players.
If you've ever seen the Disney movie "Miracle" about the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team, that's exactly what assistant coach Craig Patrick told Brooks in one of the early scenes at training camp!
Patrick (looking down at the final roster): "You're missing some of the best players, Herb."
Brooks: "I'm not looking for the best players, Craig. I'm looking for the right ones."
I think this is something Canada has done extremely well since the NHL started allowing players to compete in the Olympics. The leadership of that national team consistently takes a bunch of star players, molds them together into an outstanding team, and somehow gets them to shed any egos they may have.
Okposo is a bulldog on the boards, and 9 times out of 10 makes the right play/pass. On the other hand, Tomas Vanek, also on the first line, makes the wrong play/pass 9 times out of 10, and was on Austria's team. Okposo is also a great skater, and makes some incredible moves when going towards the net.
The next Islander game is on Thursday. If you're not doing anything, try to find it.
Here's an okay highlight reel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42and1SAIeE

It's all wonderful from the standpoint of tradition.
However, I think many people are once again being set up for their annual disappointment when their quest for the best job ever, the best weight-loss results ever or their "best whatever " initiative fails to manifest for another year.
As a strategy advisor to Fortune 25 companies, I have watched many companies and projects also set out to achieve their best project ever, only to fail for the same reasons.
As human beings, we are more predictable than we would like to believe.
So when I first took a look at Dr. Doug Hirschhorn's book "8 Ways to Great", I thought "uh huh - another self improvement book to go into the pile of books promising me eternal youth, unlimited wealth, dinner with the Queen and the Pope and just about anything else people dream up."
How wrong I was.
Dr. Hirschhorn is a performance coach and executive trainer who works with high achievers in the trading business. He has conducted workshops at financial institutions and corporations across the US and has been a guest on many TV programs, including the Today show, The Big Idea, Fast Money and Power Lunch. His background is as a trader AND a sports psychologist - a powerful combination when it comes to personal improvement. This book is described as "hard hitting and pragmatic".
With my many years on Wall Street, this background and description intrigued me.Read more ›
I am a 52 year-old trader and have read countless books on the psychology of proprietary trading. Dr. Doug's book was the best for me because it encouraged me and helped me know me.
My favorite parts of this short course to a better career game-plan include:
ENCOURAGEMENT: If you know your "why" and love what you do, you will be doing it when your abilities or methodology become best suited for success. Others will have quit long ago. However, being an individual does not guarantee your success. Rather, looking at the world in a way different than most is necessary but not sufficient for future success. Do something because you love it. Success may not be immediate but it will likely come. In the meanwhile, doing something you love will not be not work.
HELPING ME KNOW ME: What are your strengths and weaknesses? Understanding your own strengths and what the attendant weaknesses are the key to choosing a career path. What is unique about you that you can emphasize and hone to create abilities like few others? This approach helped prepare me for my decision-making inflection points. Now my trading decisions are more of an out-of-body experience and more fun and I usually do not repeat mistakes.
Dr.Read more ›
He uses a number of examples from the high stress environment of making deals and watching markets, as well as the experience of athletes honing themselves for top performance under high level of public scrutiny.
What does this mean for you? It means he can draw on all of this experience to derive 8 helpful ways to be your best. It won't be groundbreaking, but the way he explains it (especially managing risks and expected returns) will help you analyze how to hone yourself from good to great.
