Be Entrepreneur and Live Head Raised
You have a unique value on you. Every person has a great value to deliver to those around him. Look for that value within you. You can either utilize your own value within and convert it to a business opportunity or work as an employee for others and keep your value unutilized. Knowing your value gives you all the confidence you need in life. The first day you start your job as an employee, you are titled a trainee. In some countries, you see nothing wrong with calling a new employee a trainee instead of his name. Hearing this repeatedly charges you daily with a subordinance feeling. You feel lower than others around you. Unlikely, when you start your own business, you could be given titles such as entrepreneur, businessperson, or market gambler. I am sure you have noticed the level of inspiration the last titles ignited in you. Both the new employee as well as the entrepreneur are learning. Both are experiencing something new in life and dealing with a wealth of new knowledge. However, the employee is titled low, and the business owner is titled high. Is this something that calls you to start your own business? Starting your own business builds your confidence, while being employed kills it or at least ignores it. Always remember that confidence is your tool to make a change in life and to enjoy life. According to Kate Harrison in her article published in Forbes, Mar 26, 2019 edition, Misha Kaura says: "The best tip I have for being confident professionally is knowing your own worth."

Why Indian Developers?
A few years back, as I was getting one of my new businesses off the ground, I decided to hire a third party to build the website. My initial thought was to look for a web development firm in Saudi Arabia that might help me bring my concept to life within my budget and timeframe. Many local businesses at the time approached me with what they called "special offers," but the prices they quoted were always higher than I had expected. As a last resort, I sought a third-party developer who could create a functional website within my budget. It surprised me how many Indian businesses were willing to provide me with excellent prices for their products and services and drastically reduced turnaround times. I was more surprised to hear back from businesses outside of India, yet I could tell by looking at the names of the email senders that they were Indian. It is a well-established fact that Indian developers are at the forefront of this industry worldwide. In any case, why India? Several factors, in my view, contribute to this breakthrough.

How STEO Sees The Energy Market
Today, the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA) issued its Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO). The STEO makes estimates regarding consumption, supply, trade, and the price of fuel. In addition to this, the STEO provides complete market research for the natural gas, crude oil, and petroleum sectors. Despite the fact that the energy market in the United States is the major focus of the STEO, it also gives slight indications for selected overseas energy markets. The following is a list of the most significant components of such a report:

Be the kids' mate, whom they love
Some believe that friendship with children starts when they are adults or adolescents. However, it is too late at this point. According to psychologists headed by Eric Erikson and the Attachment Theory, a kid must have an attachment model and a figure to speak with if there is love, tenderness, and warmth, which is the language of interaction between a child and his parents. However, if the connection is strained, the youngster will seek an alternate role model, a buddy, or something else. If a crisis happens, he seeks this model instead of his parents, who failed to be this model.

Employees Need Leaders' Empathy
Most companies hand out yearly performance assessments to their staff at this time of year, which often contain ratings from the previous year. Since most corporations slant their employees' performance ratings with monetary incentives, money is a barrier for many organizations to be liberal in allocating performance evaluations. Most business owners know this, but employees may be under the impression that their yearly performance review is based solely on merit.

Inflation and House Prices
As I was reviewing the morning's economic news, I saw that the rate of sales of previously occupied residences had climbed from the previous month. The USD would strengthen if the figure came in higher than predicted and weaken if it came in lower.

Unlocking the Full Potential Of Oilfield Services
The oil and gas industry has been a driving force in regional economic expansion, helping to improve living conditions in many nations. The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects that worldwide energy consumption will rise by over 50% from 2007 levels by 2035. Considering that "cheap oil," or conventional energy resources, have mostly been exploited, any further volume increases will have to come from "unconventional oil." Increases in the price of oil mean more expensive capital project implementation. Increasing production via well-executed capital projects is becoming more important, but the cost-benefit analysis is becoming increasingly complex.

Hard to Forgive?
It is impossible to deny the many benefits that would result from people living together in harmony. It does not matter how kind we are; disagreements and strained relationships are inevitable. Therefore, if you wish to resume living in peace with your neighbors, you should work on forgiving one another as soon as possible.

Broken Heart
One of my friends told me the other day that one of the managers at work had it in for him, to the point where the manager would spend time out of his own time attempting to sabotage everything he did to put him in a negative light. My friend told me that the manager would spend his time attempting to cast him in a negative light. When I questioned him about why the bad guy did what he did, he pretended not to know. According to him, nothing had ever occurred between them; the other guy had harbored ill will against him from the beginning.
