7 Steps to Starting Your Own Business entrepreneurs.about.com
( Mitchell York)
Is WhaMake Sure Entrepreneurship t You Really Want
If you are thinking of starting a business because you lost your job and are having trouble finding a new one, then think about doing a better job search. Hire a career coach or get some training. Starting a business is much harder than getting a job, so it's worth the extra effort to look for employment in a better way, if that's your true preference.Also, think about whether you have what it takes to start a business in these terms: No one will tell you what to do (except your customers). You have to be self-motivated, willing to make many sacrifices, and be able to last for the long term while your business goes from startup to maturity.
Decide What Kind of Business You Want
Franchiseor independent? Service or manufacturing? Brick-and-mortal retail or online? Consumer or business-to-business? There are dozens of different types of businesses, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. Like to work with the public? A retail store might be right for you, but you will face the tradeoff of having a lot of overhead (rent and utilities for example). Want to keep your business small with low overhead, and sell your expertise? Being a consultant might suit you, but there are only 24 hours in a day and that could limit your income.
Write a Business Plan
With the dozens of business-plan-in-a-box resources available online, there is no longer an excuse not to write (not think, write) a business plan before you launch your business. Why write a plan even if you are the only person who works in the business? Because it forces you to answer critical questions that you must not ignore if you want to have a strong chance of success. It doesn't have to be long. Make it a single page if you don't have the patience to do more. But it should answer these questions:
- What is the purpose of the business?
- Who are my customers?
- What problem does my product/service solve?
- Who is my competition and why is my product/service's advantage?
- How will I price, position, market and support my product?
Assemble Your Team
While your team consists mainly of employees, think more broadly. You will need trusted advisors including an attorney, a tax accountant, an insurance advisor/agent. You may want to consider hiring a Virtual Assistant who's experienced in startups to handle the administrative tasks that come with launching a business.
超能力存在嗎?
Does superpowers really exist?
Hi, I'm really wondering if superpowers really exist? Like electricity, fire, water, earth, ice and else... I'm dreaming of one, and I need an answer! I'm paranoid.
Comment 1
People <> have super powers. People cannot somehow obtain super powers. Life is not a Harry Potter movie.
Comment 2
The powers of nature can, to a certain degree, be controlled, moderated, influenced and directed by people for our benefit. Those are not super powers.
You can buy or build generators that you, yourself, crank in order to create your own electricity. My super power comes from my knowledge that if I say "ON!" the lights will turn on (provided, of course, that I flip the switch at the same time).
Comment 3
Look, up in the sky! It's a bird.... It's a plane..... It's superman! ! ! I'm sorry but superpowers don't and cannot exist. It's not physically possible to have those abilities and survive the consequences to even have those powers. Like the ability to fly, how is that possible? It's not! But it's good to keep your brain thinking and being creative so you can think whatever you desire. Just know deep down its not possible. But remember, we have thousands upon thousands of Batman's out there! Just not wearing costumes, and traveling in bat cars. There called, detectives! These detectives have the same intelligence of Batman, hence that's why batman was even created in the 40s or 50s due to the unbelievable work by police detectives. For example, Marvel's Captain America was created due to the heroism by American and allied troops on D-day. How they just ran onto the beach and took heavy fire and still had the will to fight, is amazing. So they created Captain America which in the comics he stormed the beaches of Normandy with the Allies as a secret weapon by the Americans. (answers.yahoo.com)

來自星星的你 外星人&超能力真的存在嗎?
最近韓劇《來自星星的你》受到戲迷的歡迎與矚目，捧紅劇中由金秀賢所飾演的外星人都敏俊教授。在劇中，都教授活了四百多歲，卻保持青春容顏，還具有意念取物、千里眼、透視眼、讀心術和瞬間移動等特異能力。集這麼多特異功能於一身，難怪都教授儼然成為天之驕子，讓戲迷豔羨不已！
都教授的這些特異功能實際上存在嗎？
超能力2》意念致動
以超能力在不碰觸物體的情況下，將物體移動，這種能力被稱為「意念致動」。許多特異功能者都表演過這種能力，如將手錶指針停止、將湯匙彎曲、使物體或人漂浮空中等等。
前蘇聯有一位知名的妮娜．庫拉金那（Nina Kulagina）女士，她本是一個平凡的家庭主婦，從1960年代開始，因為具有特異功能，成為蘇聯當局研究特異功能的對象。她可以在不觸及到火柴棒的情況下，讓散滿整張桌子的小火柴棒聚集在一起，也可以完全不以手碰觸，就讓放在倒置大玻璃杯內的小玻璃杯移動。其他著名的實驗還有在6英尺以外，以意念控制讓密閉容器內的生雞蛋蛋黃與蛋白分離。
1987年中國大陸王修壁曾做過對意念致動的科學實驗研究。他以超高速攝影機觀察，發現特異功能者確實可以將物體瞬間由密閉的玻璃瓶中，移動到玻璃瓶外。
千里眼，又被稱為遙視功能。這種超能力古代傳說中經常提到，例如媽祖身邊就有千里眼和順風耳二名左右侍衛。到了近代，各國政府認為遙視功能對於軍事戰略大有助益，因此展開軍事研究。
1972年開始，美國中央情報局（CIA）為因應蘇聯的軍力挑戰，委託位於加州的史丹福研究所（Stanford Research Institute），展開對超能力者英科‧史旺（Ingo Swann）的研究。研究人員只需告訴史旺先生任一特定地理座標，他即可遙視該地區，並將地圖繪出。有一次在他事前不知情的狀況下，要求他描述南緯49度20分、東經70度14分的狀況。實際上那裡是一個距離澳洲、南極洲、非洲三地幾乎同等距離而位於印度洋上的一個小島。史旺遙視後正確地描述出當地的情況，讓研究人員大為驚嘆。
1978年，美國陸軍情報部門進行名為「星座計畫」（Stargate programme）的遙視研究計畫。當時選出具有遙視功能的六名軍職人員，其中表現最出色的美國FBI官員喬‧馬克莫尼格爾（Joe McMoneagle），進行了四千多次遙視，成功率為53%。1979年，馬克莫尼格爾對蘇聯位於白海靠近北極圈的海軍機密軍事設施進行遙視，發現了藏在建築物內的最新型潛艇。
在《來自星星的你》一劇中有一個為人津津樂道的情節，描繪都教授雖然沒有千里眼，但他可以聽到遠方的呼救聲，因而及時阻擋了即將墜入懸崖的轎車，救了車內女主角千頌伊一命。
在特異功能中，千里眼和順風耳是類似的功能，都教授所擁有的功能，就是所謂的順風耳。
超能力4》透視眼
透視功能與遙視功能一樣，都是自古以來有大量案例的功能。在中國古代，相傳扁鵲和華佗即具有透視能力。華佗能看到曹操腦內長瘤，即為典型的人體透視功能。
現代許多氣功師也宣稱可以觀察密閉器皿中的物體。中國大陸的學者甚至研究過讓原先不具備功能的5至14歲少年，經過短期的訓練，即可辨識裝於黑色密封盒子內的紙條上的文字。日本過去有位具有透視功能的女子「千鶴子」，1930年代在東京接受當時科學界的名人測試：他們將寫好的字封入鉛管內，等到千鶴子透視完成後，再將鉛管當場鋸開。千鶴子成功地辨識出是「盜、丸、射」這三個字，證明她的透視能力，震驚了在場的所有日本科學家。(watchinese.com)
