Some people are better at getting out of tough challenges than others. Many of them, at least in our experience, are entrepreneurs. But all of them are creative, innovative thinkers.
Goals that are too easy or hard aren’t compelling, but hitting the sweet spot in between may be as challenging as your goals themselves.
Like many people, I set New Year’s resolutions. I’m a longtime runner, and this year, I challenged myself to hit a certain speed goal on the treadmill by March 31.
Your job will probably be affected by automation, but the future isn’t as bleak as it seems. Here’s 5 steps to remain relevant and employed.
The fear of job loss due to automation is no longer relegated to only physical-labor manufacturing jobs and relatively simple transaction-based, customer-service workers (i.e., bank tellers, grocery store clerks, and travel agents).

Snapchat. Facebook. Netflix. Spotify. Kik. Which app best accommodates disabilities? Google’s new Accessibility Scanner tells us.
If you haven’t heard the term “inclusive design” yet, you will soon. It’s a simple idea: By designing to accommodate people with disabilities, we can make products that are better for everyone.

NASA projects we’ll be on Mars by the 2030s. RedWorks has created a 3-D printing system to build your first home on the red planet.
For most of history, the idea of humans journeying to Mars has existed purely in the realm of imagination. As early as the 1880s, science fiction writers began publishing alternate realities in which people built flying machines to visit the red planet. Last year, movie audiences were captivated by Matt Damon’s struggle to stay alive in The Martian. But the prospect of putting men on Mars is no longer a fantasy.
