Carnival of the Vanities 243 at Silflay Hraka

The 243^rd edition of the longest running internet blog carnival, the well known Carnival of the Vanities continues at Kehaar's Silflay Hraka.

The carnival, and indeed the entire blog carnival concept, was born over four years ago at Bigwig's Silflay Hraka blog. It is now back home to Silflay Hraka, as Bigwig's brother Kehaar has assumed the reins with great results.

Carnival of the Vanities is the original collection of blog postings, assembling some of the best and wide ranging bloggers on the internet.

This week's Carnival of the Vanities entries include politics, literature, religion, humour, and business.



I have an entry in this week's Carnival of the Vanities as well.

My post is titled "Sunk costs: Know when to pull the plug" where I discuss how sunk costs are usually related to continuing to pour money into a bottomless pit, with little or no chance of return. Spending pointlessly, and compounding even greater losses, only tells part of the story. Sunk costs are also about the admission of errors. All too often, failure to admit a mistake was made, leads to further spending on a lost cause.

My post is titled "Solving business problems: Seeing patterns" where I discuss when you talk to many business people, they are convinced that the problems associated with their industry are like those experienced elsewhere. Not only do they believe their industry is unique in the business world, but their own company is one of a kind as well.

My post is titled "Disaster prevention: Learning to bike ride" where I discuss how like most children, you probably were given a bicycle when you were young, and were taught to ride. Of course, when you started out on your travels, a few falls were part of the learning process. When you fell off the bike, your parents told you to get back on the bicycle and try again. Soon, you learned enough about balance and control of the equipment to ride off on many adventures in your neighbourhood.

My post is titled "Contrarian thinking: Move away from the crowd" where I discuss how it's said that people think with a herd mentality. Almost everyone does or thinks in much the same way as the group, says this line of thought. If the concept of a thinking like the crowd is true, then you can be highly successful by going against what is perceived as conventional wisdom. If people are more independent in their thoughts, then you can be successful in gaining the numerous niche markets opened, by being contrarian to several crowds at once. In any case, thinking and acting independently will be your most profitable course of action.
