Dealing with Insults ... Lord Buddha

Beautiful Quotes ...

If you are right then there is no need to get angry
And if you are wrong then you don't have any right to get angry.

Patience with family is love,
Patience with others is respect,
Patience with self is confidence and
Patience with God is faith.

Never Think Hard about PAST,
It brings Tears ...
Don't Think more about FUTURE,
It brings Fears ...
Live this Moment with a Smile,
It brings Cheers!

Every test in our life makes us bitter or better,
Every problem comes to make us or break us,
Choice is ours whether we become victim or victorious!

Search a beautiful heart not a beautiful face.
Beautiful things are not always good,
but good things are always beautiful.

Remember me like a pressed flower in your Notebook.
It may not be having any fragrance,
but will remind you of my existence forever in your life.

Do you know why God created gaps between fingers?
So that someone who is special to you,
comes and fills those gaps by holding your hands forever.

A Working Testament

By Mr. Ingvar Kamprad

A job must never be just a meal ticket. Without enthusiasm for your work, one third of your life goes down the drain and can never be compensated for.

Development is not always equal to success. It depends on you, as leader and a responsible person, to make development progressive.

To design a desk which costs $1,000 is easy for a furniture designer. But to design a functional and good desk which costs $50 can be done only by the best. Expensive solutions to problems are often signs of mediocrity.

Bureaucracy complicates and paralyses. While there must be rules, the more difficult and complicated these are, the more difficult they will be to observe.

By refusing to accept a pattern just because it is established, one gets further, not only in big problems but also in small daily ones. A healthy appetite for experimenting will lead one forward all the time. “Why” remains an important word.

To make mistakes is the privilege of the active person – the one who is able to start from the beginning again and put things straight. The fear of making mistake is the root of bureaucracy and the enemy of all evolution. No decision can claim to be the only right one.

It is the drive behind the decision, which determines its correctness.
To win does not always imply that someone must lose. The most splendid victories are those where there are no losers.

The ambition to develop oneself as a human being and in one’s work must remain high.

The keyword is humbleness. Will and strength without humbleness often lead to conflict.
Time is your most important asset. Split your life into 10-minute units and sacrifice as few as possible to futilities.

Must things still remain to be done?

The Art of Education

The art of education is to continue to grow as long as you live.

Every moment brings its lesson.

Every person is a teacher. Grow in all directions.

Develop a desire for goodness, an eagerness for knowledge,

a capacity for friendship, an appreciation of beauty,

a concern for others. Grow !

Man is never finished. Man never arrives.

Education never stops.
A quotation from anonymous

A Lesson on Public Relations - The Customer

Customer is the most important visitor on our premises.

He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him.

He is not an interruption on our work.

He is the purpose of it.

He is not an outsider on our business.

He is a part of it. We are not doing him a favour

by serving him. He is doing us a favour by giving us

an opportunity to do so.

- Gandhiji

Quotation from Stephen Grellet

"I shall pass through this World but once ...

Any good thing that I can do,

Or any kindness that I can show my human being,

Let me do it now ... and not defer it,

For I will not pass this way again."

Stephen Grellet

Life is like travelling on a conveyor belt

Trouble is ...most of us are on a conveyor belt designed by others.
When on a conveyor belt, think of it in the context of a production line ...
sometimes you go through fire, then follow by through water or get hammered to shape (to conform) or all sorts of quality conformance.  If not, you may land up as a reject and discarded.

On Retirement ...

We don't think it is a "full stop" to life.
It is more like a "comma", a chance for us to catch our breath, discover new things that we love to do and to help others in the same parts of their lives, to find the things that they like as well. It's a chance to change course, pick up a new skill, etc.
Retirement is not an end, but a beginning!

Faith

And I said to the man who

stood at the gate of the year:

"Give me a light that I may

tread safely into the unknown."

And he replied:

"Go out into the darkness

and put your hand into the

Hand of God. That shall be

to you better than light and

safer than a known way."
from the peom "God Knows"

by M. Louise Haskins
