Three Lessons From THE DAY OF THE JACKAL.
The Day of The Jackal is a political thriller written by English author Frederick Forsyth and published in 1971. This novel was recommended to me by an English friend. In his own words: “As a Frenchman, you will certainly enjoy this. The movie adaptation is fantastic but the novel is exceptional. I suggest you start with the book.” I was sceptical at first since I had just finished reading another novel called The Sicilian which was written by Mario Puzo. Having spent weeks in the mafia universe of The Sicilian, I wondered if diving into a political thriller was the proper transition. However, the plot of The Day of The Jackal was very intriguing and I was assured that the book is a great classic among highly suspenseful novels that are built around political assassinations. This assessment was right: the novel is absolutely brilliant and easily holds its ground against more contemporary books in the same category.

Doctor's Book of Survival Home Remedies: How to Save a Life at Home
How to Save a Life at Home Doctors are expected to be able to treat patients at the office, in the hospital, and at home. With certain life-threatening illnesses, such as stroke and heart attack, even five minutes can make the difference between life and death. If a patient collapses or experiences severe pain or shortness of breath at home, the doctor is the person people turn to for assistance. Doctors don’t have time to study first aid and home nursing techniques during residency or on the job; they have to know these things already. But that’s not to say doctors don’t ever learn about or use home remedies. On the contrary, many doctors are regular users of natural home remedies, such as herbs, vitamins, and essential oils.

My Message to Entrepreneurs: Nobody cares about you. At least not yet. Get used to it!
The overnight business success does not exist. Success stories are the result of restless efforts, market feedback (failures) and prolonged persistence. Some of the companies that come to mind as I think of success are, Lululemon, Amazon, Apple, Zappos or Yoox.com. These are companies I use every day and got to extreme success because of extreme dedication, patience, huge risk taking and extreme focus. It took these companies an average of 10 years to become the force-multiplier they are today. Those other companies that grow too rapidly and reach the unicorn status in say 2 years, they either are in trouble because of excessive growth, or they do not exist anymore. Peloton is one company that comes to mind when thinking of temporary success followed by failure. Peloton was a Covid 19 success story, best known for its at-home exercise bike that features a large screen on the front of the bike. The company grew too fast and got the leadership disconnected from reality. As a result, the stock crashed, and it is now at 7$ down about 2000% from the Covid peak of $151.
