A logo of Turkey's Central Bank is pictured at the entrance of its headquarters in Ankara, Turkey October 15, 2021. The bank's policy committee repeated it is ready to raise rates further as needed to curb inflation, which climbed to an annual rate of 61.53% in September and is expected to rise into next year. It has weakened some 70% in two years, largely due to President Tayyip Erdogan's long-standing opposition to high rates and influence over the central bank. Erdogan chose former Wall Street banker Hafize Gaye Erkan as central bank chief after his May re-election. She has led a policy U-turn to relieve an economy strained by depleted FX reserves and surging inflation expectations.

Plenty of experts — from Harvard University neuroscientists and Yale University psychologists to self-made millionaires and ex-Google executives — preach self-awareness as a crucial trait separating highly successful people from everyone else. At least one researcher is over it. It certainly can't hurt to understand what you're good at and where you need to improve, whether that's at work or anywhere else in your life. "When you are focused introspectively, you are going to favor what you have past experience doing," Ibarra says. "But a lot of the stuff that we are being challenged to do [in our careers], we have no past experience doing.

Daniel Lubetzky, billionaire founder of Kind Snacks, attributes his success to a simple decision: surrounding himself with people who feel comfortable giving him honest, raw feedback. Lubetzky founded Kind Snacks in 2004, initially running it on a shoestring budget before accepting roughly $16 million of outside funding in 2008. Just over a decade later, Kind was acquired by food giant Mars for a reported $5 billion in 2020. "Environments that discourage hearty debate are shockingly common," Lubetzky says. You should also prioritize people who are "kind" over people who are "nice," Lubetzky says.

Turkey's Erdogan says Hamas is not a terrorist organisation

NO ARCHIVES Acquire Licensing RightsANKARA, Oct 25 (Reuters) - Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, in his strongest comments yet on the Gaza conflict, said on Wednesday the Palestinian militant group Hamas was not a terrorist organisation but a liberation group fighting to protect Palestinian lands and people. "Hamas is not a terrorist organisation, it is a liberation group, 'mujahideen' waging a battle to protect its lands and people," he said, using an Arabic word denoting those who fight for their faith. Erdogan also slammed Western powers that have voiced support for Israel's retaliation against Hamas, saying "Western tears shed for Israel are a manifestation of fraud". Many of Turkey's NATO allies consider Hamas a terrorist group, and Erdogan's comments drew a swift rebuke from Italy's Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini, who said they were "grave and disgusting and did not help with de-escalation". Erdogan accused Israel of taking advantage of Turkey's good intentions.

Matt Higgins' "number one" piece of advice for finding a highly successful mentor: Don't ask anyone to mentor you. The "Shark Tank" investor and RSE Ventures CEO doesn't like it when people cold-message him with mentorship requests, he said during Tuesday's CNBC Make It: Your Money virtual event. You could ask Higgins, for example: "I heard on 'Shark Tank' that you struggle with impostor syndrome. Putting ego aside and asking for help isn't embarrassing, Higgins said.

A recent survey on hiring practices led by hiring software company Greenhouse found "pretty sobering stats" about discrimination in hiring processes, says Ariana Moon, head of talent planning and acquisition at the company. Almost one-fifth of job seekers tried to protect themselves against these discriminatory hiring practices by changing their names on applications. Of those that change their names, 45% did so to sound 'less ethnic', 42% to sound younger and 22% to sound like the opposite gender. Under federal employment law, applicants are protected from employment discrimination that may be based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetic information.

Palestinian officials said the blast at Al-Ahli al-Arabi hospital was caused by an Israeli air strike. Israel blamed the blast on a failed rocket launch by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group, which denied responsibility. President Tayyip Erdogan called the blast "the latest example of Israeli attacks devoid of the most basic human values". Following the NSC's appeal, Israeli airlines said they were arranging flights from Istanbul on Wednesday for Israelis who want to leave Turkey. Political analysts said the Gaza hospital blast could have dire consequences for ties between Israel and Turkey.

You've probably heard about the growth mindset — the idea that constant, incremental improvement can lead to achievement and success. It's also the key to understanding why the growth mindset works and when to lean into it, researchers say. Several studies on school-age children, for example, found that a growth mindset resulted in better grades for kids from financially well-off families than those from poorer backgrounds. A growth mindset is "a necessary but insufficient condition for learning," says Tipton. When a growth mindset is most effective, and how to use it wisely

They found that having short periodic breaks dedicated to exercise, meditation and goal setting can help increase flow while working, which in turn can prevent burnout. On top of this, the employees in the flow group were also encouraged to have 10-15 minute breaks sprinkled two to three times throughout the day. This increase in flow led to a decrease in reported stress and stability in the physiological symptoms. Participants in the flow group left work feeling less drained and actually had the time after work to rest and recuperate, preparing themselves to enter the next working day with even more focus and energy. "There is this common expression that 'stress + rest = success', well we are changing that a bit into "flow + rest = success."

By Huseyin Hayatsever and Tuvan GumrukcuANKARA (Reuters) - Turkey said on Friday that Israel's call for Gazans to move south in 24 hours ahead of its planned ground offensive was inhumane and a violation of international law. Speaking at an event in Istanbul, he also urged Israel to allow humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip through Egypt's Rafah crossing. Two A400M Turkish military aircraft with humanitarian aid for Palestinians in Gaza have arrived in Egypt's Al Arish airport, Turkey's defence ministry said on Friday. Footage shared by the defence ministry showed boxes covered with the logo of Turkey's AFAD disaster management authority. The International Committee of the Red Cross said on Friday that humanitarian organisations would not be able to assist more than a million people in Gaza.

Signing a job contract is often an automated process. When facing pages of fine print, you may just trust your prior conversations with your employer and sign off without a second look. Down the road, however, you may find yourself in legal and financial trouble as a result. New York, Pearson says, is more in the middle. Federal crackdown is also expected, as The FTC has proposed a ban on most non-compete clauses among other restrictive employment practices back in January, and they are expected to vote on it by April 2024.

Terje Pedersen/NTB Acquire Licensing RightsANKARA, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Turkey's President Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday criticised the United States for moving a carrier strike group closer to Israel, saying that it would commit "serious massacres" in Gaza. Following a surprise attack by Hamas militants on Israel on Saturday, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said on Sunday that the U.S. will be moving a carrier strike group, which includes the USS Gerald R. Ford, closer to Israel. "What will the aircraft carrier of the U.S. do near Israel, why do they come? They will hit Gaza and around, and take steps for serious massacres there," Erdogan said in a joint press conference with Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer in Ankara.

San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback Brock Purdy, a captain on one of the league's two remaining undefeated teams, isn't one of them. He splits rent with one of his teammates, an offensive lineman, and drives a Toyota Sequoia SUV, he told NBC's "TODAY" last week. It has the the third-highest cost of living in the U.S., possibly contributing to Purdy's desire for a roommate. A one-bedroom apartment or condo's median monthly rent in San Francisco is $2,993 — 137% higher than the national median — according to Zillow data. And in baseball, New York Yankees star pitcher Gerrit Cole kept driving his 2006 Toyota Tacoma truck after signing a $324 million contract for a simple, logical reason: It still worked, he told NJ.com in 2021.

Age discrimination in hiring is an illegal yet pervasive practice. While age discrimination is a well-documented phenomenon, in many cases it goes unnoticed and unaddressed. Victims of age discrimination may be unsure of whether or not what they are experiencing classifies as discrimination and hiring officials may be unaware of their implicit biases against older workers. This makes it all the more difficult to address and protect yourself against age discrimination. Common resume red flagsChoices you make in your resume might inadvertently be working against you.

At some point in your life, you've probably set a goal. Even setting a goal in the first place can limit you, according to Wharton organizational psychologist Adam Grant. People who set goals and stubbornly stick to them are "not seeing the dimension of possibilities," Ulukaya said on Grant's podcast in July. Of course, some parts of goal setting are highly valuable. Setting goals and thinking about self-optimization tactics can clutter your mind, unintentionally distracting you from the task at hand, he tells CNBC Make It.

Details of how the Taliban intend to expand and manage mass surveillance, including obtaining the U.S. plan, have not been previously reported. "At the present we are working on a Kabul security map, which is (being completed) by security experts and (is taking) lots of time," he said. The Taliban strongly denies that an upgraded surveillance system would breach the rights of Afghans. A July U.N. monitoring report said there were up to 6,000 Islamic State fighters and their family members in Afghanistan. The Afghan "home base" locations of Islamic State fighters are in the eastern mountainous areas, said Schroden.

Azerbaijan mounted a lightning offensive to retake control of its breakaway Karabakh region on Tuesday. On Wednesday, NATO ally Turkey publicly threw its support behind Baku's "steps to preserve its territorial integrity" but it had been unclear whether Ankara played any active role in the 24-hour military operation. "It was Azerbaijan army's own operation, there was no direct involvement of Turkey," a Turkish defence ministry official told reporters on Thursday. The move was condemned by Azerbaijan, Turkey and Ukraine. In a phone call with his Azeri counterpart Ilham Aliyev late on Wednesday, Erdogan reiterated Turkey's "heartfelt support" of Azerbaijan, his office said.

Mark Zuckerberg's five-word motto "move fast and break things" spawned Meta's multibillion-dollar success and inspired an entire generation of Silicon Valley entrepreneurs. In a TED Talk earlier this year, Morriss decried the idea behind Zuckerberg's phrase, suggesting instead that CEOs and leaders everywhere should "move fast and fix things." She offered a five-step guideline you can use to fix problems in your workplace, with each step assigned to a day of the week to keep you on schedule. Your goal should be to create a "good enough" plan to fix your problem, Morriss said. So, if we have not first earned trust and we go fast, we will break things guaranteed.
