Living FOR Existence

Tue, 22 May 2012 09:42:14 +0000

Searching for better life status
Searching for financial steadiness doesn’t always means having a lavish life but it intimates to a controlled level of social value. People are always worried about what are they giving to their lives, their children, their families etc. However there is always a moment which comes in our life when the question arises that where is the satisfaction for which we were struggling for? The answer could be yes or may be no. But still there is a question mark, which asks that have we given the wrong answer to the right question or not? Looks like we are always are in search of better life, which is a positive sign except this quest leads us to a conflict that are we going towards the right path? There are so many helpful statements to tackle such situation and so many excuses as well, but the right answer is “having satisfaction”.

What we are struggling for?
The delight of satisfying ourselves is behind what we succeed in life. Ask an amusement park employee or a farm worker what he or she earns after dedicating a major part of his or her life, ask the same question to the doctor, engineer or any qualified professional. I am sure the reactions will not be the same. Now this means that we are fighting and struggling between satisfaction and dissatisfaction. This is the point where we stand with multiple options, which pathway we need to choose. It’s easy sometimes to analyze what is better for our life but it’s difficult as well when we choose between satisfied life and a life with a regular income.

Point of satisfaction
The most important reason why people run after better income is the economical atmosphere, which isn’t always consistent. As business people don’t plan on current money values but they also consider the variation taking place in financial environment, same happens with an ordinary individual, deciding monthly budget. Sounds like people are more concerned about the money happenings but they have forgotten that earning money is not the point of satisfaction but earning worth is more significant, focusing what we wanted to do for ourselves and for our livelihood.

Running after excellence
Satisfaction cannot be a certification on a piece of paper, we feel it inside ourselves, we get it when we are confirmed that we are doing the right thing and getting the right worth,. Some people say that earning is simply a paycheck for those who are not motivated towards brilliance but they are always motivated towards growing their daily, weekly or monthly paycheck figures. While those who are running after excellence are the successful people and they are the ones who are always satisfied and do a lot more to satisfy themselves referring to their profession or the objective they have in their life.

There are few analysts who stimulate people to make decisions about desiring a path in life which leads to their aspiration what they want to be and achieve. This is the only way we can make ourselves aimed towards our fulfilled existence.

What I believe?
I believe making money is an another aspect of life which may be important to endure the essential necessities of life but being satisfied must be the reason to live, either its about your personal life, family, profession, principles or whatsoever. A person should focus on what is the point to gratify, where he or she will feel persuasive about having a better feeling about what they do or decide or intend.

I fell in love with the most unexpected person on the most unexpected time.

Trouble is part of your life, and if you don’t share it, you don’t give the person who loves you a chance to love you enough.

A hug is a perfect gift. One size fits all, and nobody minds if you exchange it.

Have you ever wondered which hurts the most? Saying something and wishing you had not, or saying nothing, and wishing you had?

When you see a person without a smile, give them yours.

You’ll never find a rainbow if you’re looking down.

I want to love someone whose heart has been broken so that he knows exactly how it feels and wont break mine.

Never look at what you have lost. Always look at what is left with you.

If you don’t understand my silence, how will you understand my words?

Always remember that no matter how useless you feel, you are someones reason to smile.

Don’t say we are not right for each other. The way I see it, we are not right for anybody else.

A little thought and a little kindness are often worth more than a great deal of money.

Find someone who knows that you’re not perfect, but treats you as if you are.
Keep smiling, it makes people wonder what you’re up to

Don’t be afraid of fear let it be afraid of you.
Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.

God gives gives gives and forgives. People get get get and forget.

It’s amusing when you pull all of your efforts, to help someone. But when you need help, they don’t even take a glance at you.

Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain’t going away.

Three Tricks Changing Status Being Beloved Friend

Sun, 01 Jan 2012 13:32:07 +0000

Everyone can fall in love with anyone, including falling in love with his own companions.Inevitably, this feeling is strange, when you know the man’s friends begin to love you and want a more serious relationship.

How to give a sign that your guy friend likes you. There are three strategies you can follow.This trick, as reported from Sheknows.

1. More Attention
Give small concerns, such as a sudden you send short messages to cell phone, asking had eaten or not. Chances are he will be confused and ask why you send back a message like this. Just answer, you’re eating, his favorite food and then remember it.

Another way you can do is stroking her hair or shoulders. If he refuses and be cool, do not be sad and desperate, he’s probably confused by your attitude. Find another way.

2. Frequently asked her to go
Subtle way of showing you’re interested in your male friend is a frequently asked her out.Of course you do not blatantly ask her out. Say you request accompanied to the bookstore or you’re bored at home and need a friend for refreshing. At the meeting, talk about fun stuff, tuck praise him and tell me your love life. This could be a way to give your signal like it.

3. Honest Says
Telling the truth may be the only way to tell that you like it. But it takes great courage and readiness to express your heart’s content. Said frankly is more risky, although it is more comforting than you should keep it to myself.

It would be very nice, when you find out if the he had the same feeling. But you need to prepare myself, if it turns out he thinks you are just ordinary friends, maybe you would feel ashamed to see him again. However, telling the truth is the best way. For that, look for the best time to say it.

Effects of Socioeconomic Status on Children

Sun, 18 Dec 2011 00:40:02 +0000

According to Berk (2008), a family’s socioeconomic status (SES) greatly contributes to the overall development of a child. A family’s SES combines three variables: years of education, the prestige and skills required by one’s job and income to measure economic status (Berk, 2008). Children who are raised in families with a higher SES are more likely to have less behavior problems and do better in school due to the families’ ability to provide financially with less stress as well as enhance learning and opportunity throughout development from their own educational success. Children who grow up in poverty are raised by parents who are constantly worried about finances and are typically less educated than parents with a higher SES. These disadvantages can weaken the family unit causing children to develop behavior and psychological problems and opportunities to enhance learning and development through parents are rare. In the worst cases of poverty, such as homelessness, children are also at a much higher risk of illness and an even higher risk for academic failure. Even children who are raised by affluent parents are faced with more developmental difficulties than are the children raised in families whose SES is average. Affluent parents are usually career minded and are more likely to be absent in their children’s lives as well as have high expectations and ideals of success for their children. Children with affluent parents are likely to have lower grades in school and are more susceptible to drug abuse through means of self-medication.

The Problem with Copy and Paste Facebook Statuses

Fri, 25 Nov 2011 19:22:54 +0000

“We can’t say Merry Christmas now we have to say Happy Holidays. We can’t call it a Christmas tree, it’s now called a Holiday tree? Because it might offend someone. If you don’t like our “Customs” and it offends you so much then LEAVE. They are called customs and we have our traditions.Just the same as any other religion!! If you… agree with this…please post this as your status!! I AM A PROUD ENGLISH CITIZEN…MERRY CHRISTMAS. Do you have what it takes to repost this??”

Just another copy and paste status, I thought, just ignore it. And there’s nothing wrong with writing a Facebook status that most of your friends list will ignore – everyone does it.

But then I made the mistake of really reading the status.

There are so many problems with it. Firstly, it conflates people of different religious beliefs with immigrants. There are plenty of “English citizens” who do not celebrate Christmas. And a very small minority, if any, would take offence to you calling your tree a “Christmas tree.” They’re probably just going to keep themselves to themselves. Christmas and being an “English” citizen do not go hand in hand. And while I’m at it, an “English” citizen? Surely you mean British?

I could go on. But the main question is this: why do people encourage others to copy and paste Facebook statuses that do nothing but spread hate? Following this status there was a comment which included the famous words “I’m not racist, but…” which of course always signal that the person is about to make an extremely racist comment.

The problem isn’t limited to statuses like these. There are the “girls only” breast cancer statuses that give people the impression they’re doing some good, when really they’re just ignoring all the hundreds of other cancers, and the ways they could actually help: donating, volunteering, spreading the word through something more impressive than a convoluted status.

Many of the copied statuses that I put up with on my News Feed daily relate to immigration. Immigration is a complicated issue, and it cannot be addressed by someone’s status. If you want to comment on such a grand issue, there’s a time and a place, and Facebook is rarely, if ever, going to be it.

The problem with these statuses are that they spread ignorance. And we don’t need any more of that in the world. It only breeds hate, and racism, and confusion. Next time you have something to share, think about what it might be saying. Think about the source and what it suggests. And think about what you REALLY want to say. Because copying and pasting something someone else has said is rarely what you should really be doing, and posting your limited world view all over a social networking site isn’t either.

Status Update (3) for The Klein Family

Sun, 20 Nov 2011 01:45:48 +0000

As of November 19, 2011 @ 9:30 AM EST, my TRIOND earnings for the month are now $5.47.

Because of one TRIOND friend making a special donation to my paypal account, this total jumps to $10.47. Dreamy777, also known as phillies, gave me a $5.00 donation for the Klein family. I thank you so much for your kind generosity.

Other members of TRIOND, paulc488, KittyK, tenraj, and beingwell have been helping on a daily basis or as much as possible.

I know many of you are still viewing my work a lot this month and I can’t thank you enough for all the support and all the prayers you are bestowing upon the Klein family. I am trying my best to return the favor by viewing articles of those who have viewed mine. If I have missed anyone, please send me a message and I will gladly start viewing your articles as well. I appreciate all the effort the TRIOND community is doing to help the Klein family this month.

I have not gotten an updated status on Shannon lately. The continued prayers are very welcome for this family.

I do have a paypal account if any one else would like to send a donation. I know I myself still have all my TRIOND payments in my paypal account and I have decided it is all going to the Klein family. That total is $25.35. That makes our donation total to the TRIOND family now $35.82.

Someone had mentioned me putting a button on my status article for people to make donations to the Klein family. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to do this. But if you do wish to make a donation, it is welcome and you can contact me for my paypal account information. I understand that many cannot do this and that is fine, the prayers are more important.

On behalf of the Klein family, I thank you.

God Bless!

The World’s Unhappiest Children

Tue, 20 Sep 2011 13:11:45 +0000

A story titled Unhappy Children Trapped By Consumerism in UK Newspaper The Independent brought back to my mind a blog post I wrote about four years ago under the title The Unhappiest Children In The World.

Both stories concern the effect consumerism and bran snobbery is having on children and how childhood is being commercialized, sexualized and imposing the completely false values of the advertising industry prematurely on malleable young minds. I wrote then:

One good thing that might possibly come out of the report published this week by UNICEF on the health and well-being of children in developed countries is that the embarrassment of being rated as in the bottom two places might help rid our governments two most populous Anglo Saxon nations, the U.K. and U.S.A. of their obsession with statistics and economic growth. The other thing we should hope for is a return to common sense and rejection of untested and untestable theories posited by social scientists. That will however at the very best be a long time coming.

The United States of America and the United Kingdom are the two nations that have championed globalisation, free market economics and the selfish society. Nowhere, not in the third world, not in the social democracies of northern Europe, have the family unit and traditional communities come under sustained attack as they have in Britain and the U.S.A. Governments of different political persuasions allowed themselves to be led by academics and self appointed experts to enact policies formulated by people who have spent their whole careers cocooned and cossetted in the protected environment of universities. Such people are always big on book learning, statistics and theory and pathetically short of life experience. Their theories which look great on paper but cannot be tested other than on real people who have real lives often result in social catastrophe.

It should be no surprise then that the nations most in thrall to practitioners of pseudo – science in the field of child psychology are respectively second from bottom and bottom of the list. Thus we are see once more that the economic policies of the post industrial era era have not only failed and destroyed lives, communities and cultures in the third world, but also the continuation down this road to the lunacy of managed societies’ is destroying the souls and communities of nations that claim to have been successful exponents of the technological boom and post industrial economic planning.

Well that was then, this is now and we seem to have gone backwards instead of forwards. Putting aside the bursting boil that was last month’s outbreak of rioting we still have sink estates (municipal housing projects gone horribly wrong) become ghettoes of lawlessness, drug and alcohol abuse and dysfunction, effectively no go areas for law enforecment and emergency services. We have single mothers with several children all by different fathers, absentee fathers happy to “put one in the oven” then take no further interest in their offspring. We have cities where in a third of households no resident has ever held a job of any kind; claiming benefits has become a profession. We have Prime Minister David Cameron talking about a broken society even as his government seeks advice from the same “experts” who gave us the social engineering experiments that broke it.

Forget democratic values, family values, Victorian values, middle class values, Christian values, Liberal values and all the other platitudes politicians have embraced, the two leading members of the English Speaking Axis have become nations whose populations know the price of everything and the value of nothing. So many people know about their rights but are ignorant of and totally disinterested in the responsibilities that go with their roles, as member of a community, parents, sons and daughters, employees.

It is not junk food, booze, drugs and too much TV that destroy the quality of life for our children, the whole structure of our money obsessed society is out of kilter. Many moons ago when this writer was young, optimistic and positive and squadrons of flying pigs passed overhead every day I commented on The New Apartheid which was increasingly segregating people in developed societies by age.

Sectors of the media whose make stupendous profits from the business of selling young stuff to young people and old stuff to old people must take a large share of the blame but politicians have been too quick to jump on band wagons without thinking what direction they werre heading in too.

The world is changing very quickly, requiring modern society to adapt much faster than any civilised society previously and we have not yet even understood the changes let alone begun to adapt to them. Technological advance has meant the system no longer requires masses of people be born into lives of poverty, ignorance and drudgery just to service the needs of the elite. Everybody can have a decent crack at making a fulfilling life for themselves. Yet at the same time society is engineered to deny most people just that.

We are increasingly herded, controlled, manipulated and find our options are narrowed to one or two possible lifestyle choices. We allow ourselves to be channelled into a career or accept a succession of dead end jobs with long periods as professional benefit claimants in between.

Education systems have lost sight of the life enhancing aspects of education. Schools now merely provide training and conditioning for a lifetime of mortgage slavery while promoting an intense competitiveness that will result in many pupils being written off as losers by the time they are ten, abandoned to dead end jobs where their resentment will fester.

We abandoned the unfairness of selective education only to replace it with uniform mediocrity. The best pupils with the most supportive parents will rise to the top of the heap of course, but without help from the system. People are encouraged to form the idea that seeking the instant gratification of impulses is as a personal goal on a par with aspiring to a deeper fulfillment.

The majority of children are turned into greedy and obsessive little consumers by the time that enter secondary education. They have been brainwashed into believing their status and worth among their peers can only be measured by what they possess. So the ones whose parents, both working long hours to simply to service their debts, provide neither a loving and supportive home nor the material compensations that modern society accepts as substitutes really have little chance to develop emotional survival skills.

The issue the UNICEF report raises is one of human rights. Do children have a right to be equipped for adulthood in a complex, confusing and dangerous world? Do parents have a right to choose a non materialistic lifestyle, safe in the knowledge that schools will protect their children from the bullying and peer pressure that being different attracts? Or is everybody required to conform to a stereotype?

It has been said that human rights is simply a matter of common sense. But common sense involves thinking for oneself and that is just what the governments of the developed nations are discouraging us from.

Hugh Hefner: Another Death Hoax?

Wed, 13 Jul 2011 20:23:24 +0000

Hugh Hefner is once again believed by the world that he is dead. People keep making Death Hoaxes of him because Im guessing they soon think his death of age is soon to come since he is 85 years old and most men dont really live that long on average. Espically on Social Media Sites this was a big impact as soon I even fell for it on Facebook When I logged on from my phone on an early morning I stumbled people posting statuses saying “R.I.P. Hugh Hefner”, even Pages were being made. But until he post a status or tweet on twitter saying he was still alive, people just went crazy. This death could have been as big as Michael Jacksons death since so many people wanted to live his lifestyle or wanted to see who would takeover since he was a billionare. Hopefully the word is spreading around saying he is still alive, since he still very healthy and has a great life with young Beautiful Women. The Question is still to come to see if another Death Hoax will pop around this corner for this Celebrity or Billionare. Hope this Helped everyone with wondering if he was still alive.

Grunt!

I have recently heard that the four countries that had to be rescued in recent times have been called PIGS, taking the first letter of their country names.

These three countries in Southern Europe plus the Emerald Isle in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean make up part of the EU anf the four of them are in the Euro Zone.

Portugal are neighbouring with Spain. Bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, like Ireland, it´s as good a country as any other, despite its poverty. Yet, no country is really poor, unless a colonial power or a dictatorship set their foot on it. To anyone who loves history and a stunning place I’d recommend Sintra or Lisbon. One shouldn’t bother with street maps and stuff, but one should stroll at its own pace to discover every hidden jewel on its way.

The Emerald Isle is known as Ireland because of the English. They probably found it difficult to pronounce the other Irish names of Celtic origin and replaced it to suit themselves as they have always done wherever they have been. Ever since I went to Eire, I fell in love with the land. I love the green bathed by the deep blue of the Ocean. I am a true urban person, but I seldom miss the hustle of a city, strolling about this land. Nothing can beat to to a good night out as taking part in a trad session, national anthem included. Eire could have a much better gastronomy if it weren’t for the English influence It´s an agricultural and fishing country. Cows and sheep graze as they please in the green. It could be a more advanced one, though. But eight hundred years of British domination that condemned its population to hunger and emigration has taken its toll.

I have to admit that I have never been to the cradle of civilization and democracy, that is, Greece. But it is never too late. Chances are that one day or another I´ll get on board on whatever means of transport to explore it. I always got along well with the Greeks whom I find are humorous people. Their famed dance is enough to cheer me up and to make me daydream with this land full of ancient and outstanding stones that tell us about times past.

Spain, the forth of the so called piggy countries, is quite an unknown one, although, it only takes a couple of hours to fly in. Spaniards love their pigs to the extend of making the best ham in the world. Bit pricey, I´d say, but a sheer delight to palate with any of their excellent wines. Out of the pig there’s nothing to waste, but a lot to enjoy, Spaniards exclaim. It’s also a land full of outstanding stones that will tell the traveller (not to holiday maker) thousands of tales and stories too.

The financial markets may think of us as the PIGS countries. Yet, we are proud to retain some of the best things in life and of history.

They may call us PIGS. But at least, they grant us with a status. It’s something!

12 Tips for Team Building – How to Build a Successful Team. How to Make Effective Teams

Mon, 11 Apr 2011 15:39:32 +0000

How to make effective teams

There is talk everywhere about team building, working as a team, but few understand what it means to create the experience of team work or how to develop an effective team. He belongs to a team means to feel part of something bigger than yourself. It matters very much to understand the mission or the organization you are part of the objective.

In a teamwork-oriented environment, contribute to the overall success of the organization. Even if you have a certain job and you belong to a specific department, you are with the other members of the organization to achieve the main goal. The picture will lead activities, your function exists to serve the bigger picture.

You need to make the difference between the general feeling of teamwork and the task of building an effective team, intact, to achieve a certain goal.

Many people confuse these two things and this is why many seminars, meetings and team building activities fail miserably. Bosses fail to define the kind of team they want to consolidate. Developing general feeling of working in a team is different from developing an effective team, focus, when you think about approaching a team-building methods.
