☆ Don't use these 2 toxic words at work, says executive coach: They 'will just hold you back'
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-05 | by ( Melody Wilding | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Yet despite his ambition and potential, Eric finds himself constantly repeating two toxic words: I'll wait. "I'll wait until after my quarterly review to bring this up," he decides when considering whether to pitch an idea to his boss. "I'll wait until the new year to be firmer about my work hours," is how he rationalizes answering emails at 11 p.m. yet again. "I'll wait until things are calmer before I ask for a raise," is what he tells himself, but things never slow down. Saying "I'll wait" may seem reasonable on the surface, but these two little words will just hold you back.

“Heaven” is how Peter Jamieson describes his home in Scotland, with its uninterrupted view of Loch Ness and the green hills stretching beyond, seemingly forever. But there is a problem in paradise, and it has nothing to do with the mythical aquatic monster that brought fame to the area. Centuries after being hunted to extinction, wild boars are back, roaming the hills and roads around the lake. And so Mr. Jamieson, who lives not far from the village of Drumnadrochit, often wakes to discover his front lawn plowed as if by an excavator.

☆ The battle of Kursk has unchained Ukraine from a failing war strategy

At the start of August, Ukraine seemed doomed to remain on the defensive, slowly but relentlessly being ground into retreat by Russian onslaughts. But its successful new Kursk offensive has done more than seize 480 square miles of Russian territory and humiliate Putin. After nearly a year of a grim defensive battle, the Kursk operation has also allowed Ukraine to seize the initiative and force Moscow to dance to Kyiv's tune. The Russians no longer hold the initiative across the entirety of the theater, like they have for most of last year." Which means Ukraine has to find some economical way of keeping up the pressure on Russia, without losing more territory of its own.

But the consequences — but the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious. Just imagine Donald Trump with no guardrails, and how he would use the immense powers of the presidency of the United States. But Donald Trump believes a border deal would hurt his campaign, so he ordered his allies in Congress to kill the deal. Because, you know, they know — they know he is easy to manipulate with flattery and favors. They know Trump won’t hold autocrats accountable because he wants to be an autocrat himself.

My husband is about to start his 19th year of teaching, our eldest is starting 7th grade, and our youngest is starting 1st grade. Most of our parent friends try to control for all the variables — school, teachers, and sometimes even friends or classmates — and we've learned that it rarely works as intended. Even though the school was "better" on paper, it did not mean it was the better academic situation for every student. My husband and I, who are actively hands-off when requesting teachers, broke our rule regarding our youngest starting pre-K in our public independent school district. Though her teacher was amazing, still, our youngest had a completely different experience and struggled through most of her first year.
