Inspirational Words about Life......

The Road to Success is not straight:

There is a curve called failure, a loop called confusion, speed bumps called friends, caution lights called family, and you will have flats called jobs.

But, if you have a spare called determination, an engine called perseverance, insurance called faith, and a driver called God, you will make it to a place called success!


Pearls of Wisdom:
Don't love the Heart that hurts you and don't hurt the Heart that loves you.

• Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.

• Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.

• Most people walk in and out of your life, but only friend's leave footprints in your heart.

• True friendship "never" ends. Friends are forever.

• People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges.

• If we are incapable of finding peace in ourselves, it is pointless to search elsewhere.

• The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof.

• A change of heart changes everything.

• Our greatest glory is not in ever falling, but in rising every time we fall.

• You only live once - but if you work it right, once is enough.

• One generation plants trees, and the next enjoys the shade.

• It is difficult to live in the present, ridiculous to live in the future, and impossible to live in the past. Nothing is as far away as one minute ago.

You are what you think!
• Your inner thoughts can cause you to be rich or poor, loved or unloved, happy or unhappy, attractive or unattractive, powerful or weak.

• What you impress upon your mind, you'll inevitably become. It's a psychological law that whatever you desire to accomplish you must first impress upon your subconscious mind.

• Relentless, repetitive self talk will change your self image. You'll affect your subconscious mind with verbal repetition. Constant repetition carries conviction.

• When you change your values you'll change your behavior. Start thinking of yourself as becoming the person you want to be. Self suggestion will make you the master of yourself.

• If you believe you can, you can.

• You can become whatever you want to be.


• Life is not a race. It is a journey.

• Getting someplace first, before anyone else, has very little real and lasting meaning. Seek instead to encourage others to come along, and you'll find the journey much more fulfilling.

• When you hurry through each moment, you miss out on the richness that could be yours. Take the time to live, to experience where you are, rather than being so obsessed with getting to the next checkpoint.

• When you stop demanding to have it all now, you'll discover that you have plenty already. Learn to experience joy where you are, and you'll experience it in abundance.

• Yes, it can be wonderfully exhilarating when life is moving quickly. But do not move so quickly that speed becomes your only experience, for there is so much more to enjoy.

• The terrain of life is filled with wonderful and astounding detail. Slow down and take in its richness.


One step away:
• If you were just one step away from reaching your goal, would you take that step? How do you know, right now, that you're not?

• What a shame it would be to stop making the effort, when just a little bit more would make it all worthwhile. What a shame it would be to have taken all those steps, only to miss the very last one.

• The next step you take may very well be the one that makes all the others count. You owe it to yourself, and the efforts you've made, to keep going.

• No, the next step may not get you there. Yet what about the one after that? If you keep moving ahead, a little at a time, you will indeed arrive. When you take that final, triumphant step, you'll be so very thankful you persevered.

• At some point success is just one step away. Keep going and you'll be there.
Must do:
• In each task that must be done, there is opportunity. See the task not as a burden, but as an encouragement to be fully alive and effective.

• The real burden would be the inability to do anything. No task is a burden, but is instead the chance to express your own aliveness.

• Does the work seem dreary, unimaginative, tedious or boring? That's mainly because your attitude makes it so.

• See what happens when you start by being thankful for the opportunity to do it. Your genuine gratitude will help you to see the positive value.

• When the things you must do become things you want to do, it can transform your life. Each moment takes on more meaning; each effort brings greater and greater reward.

• Rather than fighting and forcing yourself to do what must be done, let go of your resistance and allow yourself to accomplish. Let what you must, become what you want, and watch yourself begin to soar.

Do you know ?


Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage?

His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone. He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help to anyone. Once he survives the night, he is a MAN.

He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some human might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man!

Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him. He had been at watch the entire night, protecting his son from harm. We, too, are never alone. Even when we don't know it, God is watching over us, sitting on the stump beside us. When trouble comes, all we have to do is reach out to Him. If you liked this story, spread it on. If not, you took off your blindfold before dawn.

Moral of the story:

Just because you can't see God, doesn't mean He is not there. "For we walk by faith, not by sight."

YESTERDAY, TODAY, TOMORROW


There are two days in every week about which we should not worry.
Two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.

One of these days is yesterday with its mistakes and cares,
Its faults and blunders, Its aches and pains.
Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control.
All the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday.
We cannot undo a single act we performed.
We cannot erase a single word we said. Yesterday is gone.

The other day we should not worry about is tomorrow.
With its possible adversities, Its burdens,
Its large promise and poor performance.
Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control.
Tomorrow's Sun will rise, either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds,
but it will rise.
Until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow, for it is yet unborn.
This just leaves only one day . . . Today.
Any person can fight the battles of just one day.
It is only when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternity's -
yesterday and tomorrow that we break down.
It is not the experience of today that drives people mad.
It is the remorse or bitterness for something which happened yesterday
and the dread of what tomorrow may bring.

Let us therefore live but one day at a time.

LOVE


I love you with all my heart;
I long for you when we're apart;

I wish I could wipe away all your tears;
Look you in your eyes and somehow take away all your fears;

I wish I could also take away your pain;
Love you in such a way that you will know you have everything to gain;

I want to take you in my arms and hold you ever tight;
Show you that you're the one I love with all my might;

I know in my heart you're the best;
There is no comparison to the rest;

Being with you makes my heart sing;
I believe together we could do anything;

I'm ever consumed by your presence;
It only takes your essence;

The chemistry between us is on fire;
My love for you will never tire.

Monkey is around




It's Friday !!!!!!
Have a Good Weekend and Enjoy!!!!

Ear Phones-Be careful


Are those earphones worn inside the ear worse for my hearing than regular ones?

They can be—if your music is too loud. They sit closer to the ear-drum, so they create more sound pressure than traditional earphones, increasing the risk of damage, says Clarke Cox, chief of audiology at Boston University School of Medicine.

If you hear ringing in your ears or if things sound muffled after listening, you’ve likely overdone it. Usually the problem subsides, but listening to loud music regularly, with any type of headset, could lead to permanent hearing loss.

Every set of earphones is different, so it’s hard to give recommendations, but
recent research suggests limiting usage to one hour or less a day at no more than 60% volume for over-the-ear styles—even less for earbuds. Never sleep with them on, and take plenty of breaks.

ART OF RESIGNATION (Funny)

The name is good, the brand is big
But the work I do is that of a pig

The work or the brand; what is my way?
I don't know if I should stay.

To work, they have set their own way
Nobody will care to hear what I say

My will be NULL, they wont change their way
I don't know if I should stay.

The project is in a critical stage
But to do good work, this is the age

This dilemma is killing me day by day
I don't know if I should stay.

The money is good, the place is great
But the development is at a very small rate

Should I go for the work, or wait for pay
I don't know if I should stay!

The managers don't know what they talk
The team doesn't know where they walk

That's a bad situation, what say?
I don't know if I should stay.

I can go to any other place
But what if I get the same disgrace

I can't keep switching day by day
I don't know if I should stay.

The -ves are more, the +ves are less
Then why have this unnecessary mess

No more will I walk their way,
It's all done, I won't stay.

GOOD MORNING WITH WONDERFUL WEEK AHEAD

Creating A Self-Motivation Action Plan

STEP 1 : Clarify the goal
The first step of your Self-Motivation Action Plan is to be clear about the end result. Identify a project that you lack motivation about. Let's use "Make some sales calls" as an example.

Your goals should be SMART. In other words: Specific, Measurable, Agreed, Realistic and with a Timescale.

So, the above goal made SMART would be "Speak to 10 prospective clients today".


STEP 2 : Identify the Obstacles
The second step of your Self-Motivation Action Plan is to be clear about what is standing in your way. There are two types of obstacles - practical and emotional. Examples of practical obstacles are lack of time, resources or information. Examples of emotional obstacles are lack of confidence or fear of failure or rejection.

Make a list on your Self-Motivation Action Plan of all the obstacles standing in the way of you achieving your goal.


STEP 3 : Handle Each Obstacle
The third step of your Self-Motivation Action Plan is the most challenging. Go through each obstacle and handle it. If the obstacle is lack of time, ask yourself "How can I create time for this? What do I need to stop doing, start doing or delegate in order to create time?"

If the obstacle is lack of confidence, ask yourself "What am I afraid of? What is the worst thing that could happen?" Often the worst-case scenario is not as bad as you feared. But if it is serious, how can you reduce the risk of it occurring? What resources do you have that will help you?

Managing Work and Personal Life


Managing Work and Personal Life
Regardless of what your personal life entails, you need to know how to balance your work and life demands. Everyone who works is subject to pressure from the workplace that can impinge on personal time. In an always-on world, people can easily become more attentive to their jobs than the other aspects of their lives; after all, work affords us the opportunity to provide for ourselves and others.
Work demands are somewhat easier to manage if there aren’t a lot of people in your life who are affected by them, but even then, you’re still entitled to a life outside of work. If you have a family or live with a partner, managing your household responsibilities requires as much focus as managing your responsibilities on the job. There are a lot of decisions to be made when it comes to chores, care giving, and budgeting. The suggestions below may help you devise a solid plan for household management. If they appeal to you, but require a shift in your work schedule or responsibilities, ask your boss or human resource department about your options—after becoming familiar with your workplace benefits, the availability of flexible scheduling, and your organization’s attitude toward work-life balance. If you do your homework in advance, you’ll be better prepared to discuss your needs and make suggestions that align with company policy.
If you are part of a couple, you’ll reap the most benefits if you both think through the suggestions below. You will need to discuss them to create a mutually workable plan. Doing this should result in an improved work-life balance.

What You Need to Know
What’s the first step to take in getting the right work-life balance?
Ask yourself, “Is my life is in balance?” If not, plan ahead. Set aside some time with your partner and/or close friends. The first thing you need to do is establish a specific time that you will spend on yourself and those you care about. Consider what work-life balance will look like to you, given your particular circumstances. Though it is possible to be flexible, as in many areas of life, be sure you do not sacrifice the idea of carving out some time for a social life.
If I can’t change the way things are would a career break help?
Absolutely. If you are stuck in a high stress job that consumes all your time so you are unable to enjoy a social life, think about taking a career break. Taking a career break and staying at home or returning to school or taking that long-postponed vacation is an option whether you’re male or female—as long as you can afford it. If you can take the time, it will be rejuvenating and allow you to return to (or create) a more balanced situation. Consider your alternatives. Maybe you are entitled to a sabbatical. Perhaps you have accumulated a significant amount of vacation time that you haven’t yet taken, or maybe you can negotiate a period of time off without pay. If none of those options are possible, you can find another job with a better fit between its demands and a social life. That change could also allow you a transition period of, say, a month so you can sort out your needs.

What to Do
Weight the Pros and Cons of Your Current Job

Make a list of the benefits for both you and your family. Consider factors such as:
• pay
• friendships
• having a valued role at work
• making good progress in a career
• developing important skills and keeping them sharpened
Next, identify the disadvantages of the job. For example:
• the demand to be at work at least 40 hours per week
• the implicit understanding that you’ll really work 60 hours per week;

sometimes even more
• out of pocket payments for childcare
• stress on the job drains all your energy
• additional time socializing with clients after work hours
• extended night time and weekend job preparation is required
• commuting time and hassle
• additional formal job-related study is required for advancement

While you are thinking about your current job, also think more broadly about typical jobs in your field. Are they all the same? Most people will stay with the career they know, but if the demands outweigh the benefits, it could be time to consider other possibilities. There is nothing worse than feeling permanently trapped. Thinking about these issues may encourage you to reconsider your career so that you can find something more advantageous and enjoyable, with fewer constraints.

Weigh Your Personal Life
You may have many roles: friend, sibling, child, parent, partner, homemaker, and hobbyist, for example. Each comes with responsibilities and demands. What are the major burdens on your time, energy, and resources? Answer the question for different blocks of time. For example, what specific time in hours and minutes do you need for each role you play? What tasks are you asked to perform? It may be that you are asked to care for a family elder and specifically to have dinner with an uncle once a week. That takes time; say two hours a week. Once you see all the time demands made on you, you can determine which tasks can be delegated (to a spouse or child, for example), which can be discontinued (going to the racetrack with a distant acquaintance), or renegotiated (maybe dinner can be one hour a week). This helps manage your personal time in a way that both meets your responsibilities and allows you time for the more enjoyable activities.

Special circumstance: parentingClearly, raising children requires you to think very differently about work-life balance. If you are a single parent, the challenge is even more demanding; perhaps it is the most demanding situation possible. Indeed, kids change everything and you, (and hopefully a partner) must be there for your child—especially in the early years. Of course, if you have an extended family or can afford day care, that helps. If you don’t have either, managing both your career and family responsibilities becomes very difficult; there are fewer options.

Determine the Compatibility of the Demands
You are now in a good position to see which demands are compatible with your needs. For example, you might need to be at home to pick up the children at 3 p.m. each day, but that is impossible because you can’t leave work. Analyze your needs and demands against your constraints. Determine which demands can be accommodated and which need to be reduced or eliminated.
Make the demands on your time more compatible with your available energy and resources by sharing them, if possible, with family members or co-workers so they can be managed more advantageously. Be imaginative; for example, think about:
• asking an extended family member for help with the children
• asking a trusted peer parent to also take your child to school
• paying for childcare
• hiring a housekeeper to help with chores
• finding a babysitter and helper

Consider Changing Your LifestyleRather than trying to manage a stressful job and family, consider delaying your career while you raise your child by taking a job with less stress and fewer demands, maybe one that allows more flexibility or includes more family oriented benefits. With a different lifestyle, you could think about taking a career break and staying home to meet family responsibilities if you and your partner can manage on one income. That would result in two major benefits:
• each of you will have clear and manageable responsibilities and won’t be stretched too thin;
• you will share increased time and energy for looking after each other as well as your collective responsibilities.

What to AvoidYou Fail To Discuss the Impact of Your Stress with Your Organization
In general, employers are becoming more enlightened about the need to offer flexible hours and other concessions to dual career and single parent households. Your employer, however, may not be aware of what your specific needs are. Learn how to make your case without being belligerent and keep an attitude of finding a solution both you and your employer can live with. If your employer is unwilling to allow you to alter your schedule and no relief is possible, it may be time for a change of employer, lifestyle, or career.

You Want It All

Popular myth tells us it is possible for a dual career couple to raise their children and still live the exciting life. It may be possible, but it is very rare. The problem, however, is that many people believe it should be possible for them and hold this belief until the stress finally brings them down. It may be possible to have all you want if you are willing to accept the fact that it need not be all at once. Talk about this with your partner and figure out what makes most sense to both of you.
