It’s easy to get lost in the negative feelings of a bad relationship. Especially, when the pain is fresh. Keep in mind that anger is a choice, but so is love. One just feels a whole lot better than the other.

The ego is a powerful tool, but it is often clouded by emotion. When activated, focus only on the things you can control and resist the urge to speculate about others thoughts. You’ll be happier for it.

5 design principles for structuring compensation plans – Verne Harnish

  1. Be Different – If you’re paying the same as your competition you’re fishing in the same pond.
  2. Fairness, not sameness – Not all employees perform equally. Don’t pay them equally.
  3. Easy on the carrots – Too many perks make people feel entitled.
  4. Gamify gains – Look for company-wide participation to achieve company-wide gains.
  5. Sharing is caring – 401k, stocks, and other programs that vest over time create longevity and loyalty.
