Researchers have found evidence for the existence of a hypnotic state
A multidisciplinary group of researchers from Finland (University of Turku and Aalto University) and Sweden (University of Skövde) has found that strange stare may be a key that can eventually lead to a solution to this long debate about the existence of a hypnotic state.

Self-Talk Can Improve Sports Performance
Self-Talk Can Improve Sports Performance
For tasks requiring fine skills or improved technique, “instructional self-talk” was found to be more effective than “motivational talk.” In other words, when about to drive a golf ball onto the fairway, it would be better for the golfer to use self-talk such as “keep your knees bent” or “swing with your hips” rather than motivational speech like “you can do it!”On the other hand, motivational self-talk was found to be effective during tasks “requiring strength or endurance, boosting confidence and psyching-up for competition.” So those motivational speeches your football coach gives you before a big game can definitely have an effect, especially if those motivational messages stay inside your head throughout the game. In this case, “Let’s get ‘em!” can be an empowering thought.
Women less interested in competitive jobs
“When the salary potential was most dependent on competition, men were 94 percent more likely to apply than women,” List said.
The beginning fo the end for Facebook
Millennial Generation’s Web Dominance On The Decline , Pew Study Says
The fastest growth on social networking sites like Facebook has come from the G.I. generation, those aged 74 or older
Facebook’s bet is to make the new generations getting online now, feel as excited about Facebook as the current generation are. However, this will not happen. It is all a game of perception. Facebook stops being cool when your mum, let alone your “grand-dad” is there.
Also, this world craves novelty. Not only will Facebook in a few years time (as short as 2?!) become less innovative, but they’ll be approaching what I call “brand fatigue”: just plain boredom with their design and image, based on having seen them so much. It is my personal theory that the new generations need less time to experience this phenomena than any of the previous ones.

Eventually all companies will fail
A good strategy is once your current product becomes successful, start to think and build the next product which is the killer product of your current one.
Every living organism contains within itself the seeds of its own destruction, so do companies. It happened to Microsoft and will happen to Google next, once the PR tide turns against it.
At one point companies become too big, too successful…”evil’. From a psychological standpoint, humans like a winner…but only for a limited time. Once the winner is in place for too long, it is human nature to join the ranks of the winner’s enemies. Human beings resent to feel like losers for too long.
A good way to avoid this at the corporate level is to split your business into smaller, independent units under a totally different brand. Even better if they seem to compete with the market leader, which can be owned by yourself, the market leader, behind the scenes.
