New football coach optimistic for next season

?

When he was hired in December, Southern Miss head football coach Todd Monken announced that he would coach quarterbacks and call the offensive plays in addition to handling the head coaching duties. However, the head coach cannot do everything.

Monken and Southern Miss officially announced the hiring of six new coaches and the retention of one former coach. It is the first announcement of new coaches since Monken was hired, and he hopes to have his entire staff filled by the time spring semester starts at the university.

Steve Buckley, last season?s offensive coordinator, was retained as recruiting coordinator. His experience in the area with local high schools should pay dividends in recruiting. At the moment, Buckley is the only coach kept from last year?s team.

David Duggan will return to Hattiesburg as the defensive coordinator for the Golden Eagles. Duggan served as defensive coordinator for former Southern Miss coach Larry Fedora and followed him to North Carolina as the special teams coordinator. He will have the opportunity to coach several of the players he recruited to Southern Miss.

Two former NFL players will appear on the sidelines this season. Pete Perot played offensive line for the Philadelphia Eagles and the New Orleans Saints before moving on to the coaching ranks. He comes from Louisiana Tech and will be the offensive line coach. John Simon played running back for the Tennessee Titans and the Washington Redskins before becoming the head football coach and athletic director at Roosevelt High School in Dallas, Texas. He will coach running backs on this staff.

John Wazniak will be the special teams coordinator after he left his position as a quality-control assistant at the University of Alabama. Steve Thacker is the new safeties coach after spending the last three seasons as a graduate assistant at Oklahoma State. Marcus Arroyo was hired as the offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach even though Monken will call the plays. Arroyo comes from the University of California, where he was the quarterbacks coach.

Also, 70 percent of iPhone users were happy with their phone. About 56 percent of?Nokia?(NYSE:NOK) users said they were satisfied, a little higher than the 55 percent figure for Samsung? (Read more)

Popping the Self-Delusion Bubble ? Leadership Freak

I woke up this morning disturbed at the subtlety of self-delusion. The trouble with delusion is illusion.

What do you call someone who believes they?re:

1. Supportive but demanding, instead.
2. Humble but in reality, arrogant.
3. Listening when they?re talking.
4. Able to do everything ?right? while others fall short.
5. Informed when they don?t know.

You call them deluded leaders.

Deluded leaders falsely believe intentions automatically translate into behaviors. You intend to be supportive so you must be supportive, right?

Deluded leaders believe they?ve mastered the things they tell others to do. Consider the pursuit of excellence, for example. Are you always improving the work of others but doing things the same, yourself?

On excellence

How do you respond to:

1. Suggestions about your behavior?
2. Criticism about the way you handle tough conversations?
3. Improvements suggested by underlings that impact you personally?

Excellence is the gradual result of always striving for better. Can you name one thing you?re striving to improve in your leadership? Can you name three things you?re doing to improve it? Do those under you know and participate? Or, are you deceived by intention.

You pursue excellence for others but not for yourself. The discomfort others feel in telling you the truth says you aren?t approachable. When was the last time you invited someone to speak into your frailties?

Get real

Leaders serve.

You?re not special, better than, or more important. Thinking you are deludes you.

1. Conform to them rather than demanding they conform to you.
2. Focus on them; stop expecting them to focus on you.
3. Their success is your success.
4. Fuel their passions not yours.
5. Serve them; they don?t serve you.

Leaders who don?t serve rely on authority and coercion. They pressure rather than enable. Saying and telling aren?t serving.

I don?t know how you feel. But, I feel better. I needed that reminder and I bet you did, too.

How can leaders address the self-delusion issue?

Would your connections benefit from this post?

Your Ultimate January 2013 Financial Calendar

Between recovering from the holidays and trying to stick to your many resolutions, we know that you have a lot on your plate right now. To make it easier for you to have your best financial year yet, our pals at LearnVest put together a calendar of all the things you need to do this year to reach your financial goals. Check back every month for a new guide.

You can simply set calendar reminders for yourself, and start thinking about your "financial calendar" the way you do your social calendar. You'd never neglect to send your mom a birthday card after jotting it down on your calendar?so treat important tasks like saving for retirement, preparing for taxes, and donating to charity in the same way. Get ready for a much more organized month (and year)!

Here's what you should do in January...

Redo Your Budget

Look over your spending from the past year, and decide how you'd like to change your budget, based on such new goals as saving for a big purchase or paying down debt more quickly. When drawing up your budget, make sure that you factor in spending that occurs throughout the year, not just monthly, like car maintenance fees, veterinarian bills or insurance premiums.

Set Up New Savings Accounts

What are your goals for 2013? Do you want to start saving for a house or a new addition to the family? What about a fabulous trip to Europe? Figure out how much you need to save, and then create a separate savings account for these goals, so you can track your progress?and hold yourself accountable.

Automate Your Retirement Savings (or Change the Amount)

If you're not automating your retirement contributions, start now. Seriously. It's the easiest way to make sure that you get on track for retirement, and you won't be tempted to spend the money if it's automatically transferred to your account.

And if you were maxing out your Roth or Traditional IRA or your 401(k) last year, change your automated contribution amount, since the limit has increased for 2013 by $500 for all three types of accounts. For your IRA, change your contribution amount to $458.33; for your 401(k), increase it to $1,458.33.

Increase Your 401(k) Contributions

If you're not maxing out your 401(k), increase your contributions by 1%. While it doesn't seem like a lot now, compound interest will work its magic, so that the small percentage increase pays off down the road! If you got a raise, increase your contributions even more.

Use Your Year-End Bonus Wisely

We believe in rewarding yourself for hard work. So if you receive a year-end bonus, use 10% of it for something fun?and then use the remaining 90% wisely, putting it toward a financial priority like building emergency savings. If you didn't max out an IRA this year, you have until April 15th to do so, so consider this, too.

Decide on a Vacation Budget Now

Travel is one of the most common savings goals?and also one of the most expensive. Think about how much travel you'd like to do in 2013 (and when), and then come up with an appropriate budget. Remember that you shouldn't sacrifice your financial priorities?like saving for retirement or paying down debt?for travel.

Pay Your Taxes if You're a Freelancer, Small Biz Owner, or Self-Employed

You have until January 15th (today!) to pay your 4th quarter estimated tax payments for 2012.
