Need to set my own goal

Working for an organisation sometimes provides me tough challenge. It is sometimes hard to overcome. To be honest, I am feeling that way now. I need to set myself calm down, and take in deep consideration about my future and dream. What kind of a man I want to be? What do I want to do in a short and long run?

I know I am not alone, but sometimes I need to make my own decision by myself... no one can do it for me. I need to face with tough situation.

With feeling my anxiety, I watched sports on TV yesterday and today. Those give me some energy to keep on going. I am now feeling I will be able to stay calm as usual, and not to care of what others will say.

Has anything begun to change?

The incident in Thailand, and the tense in India... these things show the aspect of the world. Has anything begun to change? For which direction? This weblog title is "feel the globe" and I want to feel it through good events and news.

For Precise Understanding

I begin to think of the relationship between precise understanding and taking some rest. It is actually difficult to understand what is going on in world economy. Today, dollar was sold per yen and euro. The stock declined about 1%. The FRB announced its new policy yesterday, and some people said it showed how serious the economy is, and others said it would be good to do something substantial. What kind of things do the investors care?

In order to understand everything in a short time, I need to concentrate. And it is necessary to take enough sleep to concentrate. Enough rests provides peace mind... I tend to be short-tempered recently and it may be a sign to warn unbalance of my mind.

3 days holidays

In Japan, it was a short vacation from Saturday to today. I have been able to take rests for all days. I have tried to sleep as much as I can to save my energy for this week.

It is getting to be cold these days. I imagine how cold Leeds is now... it may be colder than here.

Murders and wrong doings go around in the news media. The investors seem to worry about the Citi Group's situation, and the government announced its support plans. What about the Big 3? Concerns will be barrier for the stock market, I suppose.

The Summit

The Summit on Financial Market was closed in Washington. People say it is G-20 conference. I was a little surprised to see the way of organisation to the press. I can see the symbol mark and the meeting place's walls were covered with the sophisticated design. I am wondering who coordinated this. Which company, and who managed everything?

I remember that I have learned a concept "public diplomacy". It might be a good chance to show the US's power in terms of leadership among countries. I would say, the summit was a kind of "stage" to perform or promote the US as a leader.

If you go to the website of the White House, you can see much information on this summit such as Bush's speech and other statements. They provide so many things including videos, and I am not sure it is actually useful or meaningful. We have to take in consideration that this flow is just from one side. This is not the two-way communication.

Health

Recently, I always think of importance of being healthy. I sometimes feel strong headache, and start thinking possibility to have a bad disease. I need some holidays to be away from works, but it is actually hard. There is some pressure not to take them.

A Japanese magazine editor opened a hotel in Kenya almost 15 years ago. The hotel provides so-called western culture including cuisine, but it is not a bad thing. People can visit Kenya and spend much money there which gives wealthy to people. I heard this story almost one month ago, and in the time like I spent these days, I just dream that I could go there to feel the nature there.

I was invited friend's house to have dinner. It was good to talk about leadership, management, and future technology to protect the earth. I want to put myself in good conversation, simply.
