"Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared." Key #1 - Live in the present This is truly the only moment we have. Stay focused on what is happening here and now. Look for the joy and fullness in every moment rather than thinking about or worrying about what happened in the past or what might happen in the future. We waste so much energy worrying needlessly about what has happened rather than focusing on the joyfulness of the present moment. We drive ourselves crazy judging what we should have done and what we should do in the future. When you feel yourself going down that path recognize that your ego is trying to take you on a trip that will bring you nothing but heartache rather than joy. Stop and connect with your Higher Self and ask her/him to support you in living in the moment and enjoying what you are currently experiencing. Accept what comes to you totally and completely knowing that all that is occurring is an opportunity to learn and to grow spiritually. Don't struggle against what is occurring in your life, know that you have created all that you are experiencing, be at one with it and be in gratitude. Key #2 - Take time to be silent Meditate and connect with your Higher Self asking to quiet the internal dialogue. During this time of silence know that you are reconnecting with your source of pure awareness. Pay attention to your inner Self so you may be guided by intuition rather than your ego. Remember that your ego likes to make you wrong to make you right to make you wrong to make you right. It loves taking us down the unstable, fearful path. Our Higher Self wants us to feel safe and loved and to experience unlimited love, joy and peace. ey #3 - Relinquish your need for external approval Remember that all the answers are within us - not outside of ourselves. You alone are the judge of your worth and your goal is to discover and recognize the infinite worth within yourself, no matter what anyone else thinks. Remember that they are a mirror for you communicating back to you what you actually think about yourself. No one participates in your life unless you have invited them. There is great freedom in recognizing that all we experience we create. When you find yourself reacting with anger or opposition to any person or circumstance, realize that you are only struggling with yourself. Putting up resistance is the response of defenses created by old hurts. When you relinquish this anger, you will be healing yourself and cooperating with your Higher Self. Know that the world "out there" reflects your reality "in here." The people you react to most strongly, whether with love or hate, are projections of your inner world. What you most hate is what you most deny in yourself. What you most love is what you most wish for in yourself. The goal is total self-knowledge. When you achieve that, what you most want will automatically be there, and what you most dislike will disappear. Key #4 - Shed the heavy garment of judgment You will feel much lighter, more peaceful and more joyful. The first place to begin is to stop judging yourself. Be in love with yourself and know that you are perfect. When you judge, you cut off understanding and shut down the process of learning to love. In judging others, you reflect your lack of self-acceptance. Is there something that a friend, child, spouse or partner does that drives you nuts and you think is silly or stupid? Welcome to the club. When we judge people we are saying that they have faults and in doing so we are claiming that we have faults as well. What are faults anyway? Faults are what other people do, think, feel, or believe that are different from how we perceive things, so we pass judgment that they should think or act this way or that way. What we judge as faults from the other person's perspective are not viewed as faults at all, but just who they are. What can we do? Learn to accept others as being on their own path to growing, learning what they need to learn, when they need to learn it according to life's overall plan, and not your plan. We all act the way we do, think the way we think and feel the way we feel because it is right for us. Many of us think that if so and so would just think the way I think, or feel the way I feel about certain things, they would be much happier. It is not our job to judge what we think is best for someone else. What we can do is connect with our Higher Self and continue to assess what is best for ourselves. As we do that we change and all our experiences with others change for the better. Key #5 - Count your blessings We are sure you have heard this phrase many times. It may sound like a silly thing to do; but, we invite you to give it a try. You may be pleasantly surprised to see how many things you are grateful for. Choose a way that will work for you to record your blessings; make tick marks during the day every time you experience something you are grateful for and count them up at the end of the day or sit in meditation at the end of your day and be in the energy of total joy as you recapture all your blessings for that day. We are sure there are many other ways that you can 'count your blessings'. The decision and choice is yours. There are literally thousands of possible things to be grateful for during the course of your day. You just have to be willing to see them. Key #6 - Let go of old baggage Some of us have heavy overnight bags we are carrying and some of us have trunks. No matter the size, the weight of this baggage can be debilitating and prevent us from truly experiencing happiness. What baggage are you carrying? Is it something a friend did 20 years ago? Or something a sibling, colleague or boss did a week ago? Do you really want to continue to carry this emotional 'stuff' with you for the next 5, 10, 15.... years? This baggage is usually old hurts, resentments, anger or some kind of pain inflicted by another person. Our old baggage can also consist of old guilt - things we should have done or shouldn't have done. Why do we hold on to all these old feelings anyway? For many of us we just see it as part of life and part of our journey and for many of us it actually feels normal and natural. If you feel drained emotionally and can't understand why, sit and reflect on what old baggage you may be carrying. Are there things you are still holding on to that create needless stress? Take the time to journal experiences you have had that you want to let go of. Make a conscience decision in 2010 to lighten your load and carry only what you need for the present moment. Doing so will allow you to experience more and more moments of joy and happiness. Key #7 - Stay in gratitude Staying in a state of gratitude is one of the most effective things you can do to be happy. And, the wonderful thing is it's free and easy. Simply give thanks for something. It can be as simple as giving gratitude to your eyes for being able to read this article or to the email system that allowed you to access this article. Give gratitude to your home or to the hotel room you stayed in on your last business trip or vacation. Get in the habit of giving gratitude to all your experiences, even the ones we deem as 'bad'. Knowing that there are no 'bad' experiences, only opportunities for us to grow and get better. Give gratitude to the person who delivers your mail or to the people who pick up your trash. Give gratitude to your pet(s) that bring you great joy. Giving gratitude opens the dam that has been holding back the natural flow of love and joy. We recognize that there are more than seven keys to happiness and trust that this ezine will inspire you to think of other ways of bringing more happiness into your life. One key point to remember is that happiness comes from deep within. It is a practice in which you have to be actively involved in. Things may happen in your life that knock you down and take you off course. When this happens remember to tap into your Higher Self/Spirit and ask for guidance. To Your Happiness!

5 Ways to Tell the Truth about Ourselves

5 Ways to Tell the Truth about Ourselves
Telling your truth is scary. Many people are willing to go miles out of their way to avoid the truth. That way we avoid the pain that comes with telling the truth. Although denial can work in the short term to make things look all right, in the long term, denial keeps us from the possibility of change--it keeps us stuck in our problems, saps our energy and can leave us exhausted. Denial is a struggle and a struggle implies resistance. And the more we resist something, the more it usually fights back. What we resist persists. It takes courage to dig deep and allow ourselves to open up to the truth. And while telling the truth might hurt, it is also the first step in getting past the hurt. It opens the door to methods we can use to make effective, enduring changes to improve the quality of our lives.

1) Stop shaming and blaming.
Most people see self-evaluation as a negative process, but there is an alternative. We can learn to see shame or blame as excess baggage and just set them aside. We could acknowledge and even regret our mistakes and shortcomings while accepting ourselves completely. We can begin working with our list of weaknesses by celebrating them. The more successful people are, the more likely they are to be open to looking at their flaws. We can love and accept ourselves and still work really hard to change ourselves.

2) Forgive yourself.
One powerful way to move from shame to acceptance is to forgive ourselves. Before practicing new skills and new ways of being, it's wise to clean house. We don't need to beat ourselves up before we re-invent ourselves. We can be totally honest with ourselves and, at the same time, be gentle. While admitting our mistakes, we can treat ourselves with care. After all, everyone makes mistakes.

3) Let go of the past, but learn from it.
We can focus on what we have learned from our past, without getting caught up in repeating our mistakes. We can discover a way to move forward without feeling rotten about the past. We can change the way things are without having to be upset about the way things have been. The past is over. There is nothing you can do to change the past. It is also important for us to let go of who we were or what we did in the past if that is not what we strive to be in the future. This means we have to believe we can change--we can engage in new ways of being and doing. The past is useful in showing us things we do not want to repeat and in exploring lessons we have learned that can be helpful in creating change in the future.

4) Face your fears.
We all have them and they are responsible for holding us back. To identify our fears we need to pay attention and become an observer of ourselves. We should be paying attention to what we fixate on and what we ignore, how we make judgments about situations and how we interpret other's behavior, and the internal dialogue that is going on when the fear strikes. We need to get to know our mindset- especially patterns like learned pessimism or helplessness and other limiting or negative self statements. Mindset is based on our core beliefs. When we say we are afraid, underneath is a belief we have about ourselves- I am not skilled enough, good enough. etc., or a belief about the world--there is too much competition, people won't like what I have to offer, etc. When we can let go of fear we can release ourselves in powerful ways.

5) See the connection between strengths and limitations.
Most people place strengths and weaknesses in separate, unrelated categories. Another way to perceive them is as being closely related. Often the things about ourselves that we label as weaknesses are simply examples of taking our strengths too far. A person with a passion for organization can become obsessed with details and lose sight of overall goals. A person who listens well may forget to speak about his own thoughts and feelings. These are just a few examples. The point is to remember that our assets and liabilities may all be part of the same personal account.

4 things which can not recover

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

HOW TO STAY YOUNG

1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay 'them'

2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down..

3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.' And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.

4. Enjoy the simple things.

5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.

6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.

7. Surround yourself with what you love , whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.

8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it.. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.

9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county; to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.

10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER :
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

And if you don't send this to at least 8 people - who cares? But do share this with someone. We all need to live life to its fullest each day!!


Worry about nothing, pray about everything

5 Ways to Unlock Your Potential - when things can go wrong

Here are 5 things that can hold you back from your potential (and might be holding you back too).

1. Not admitting that things aren't working
If things are difficult and struggles are an everyday occurrence, something is terribly wrong. Struggle is different than challenge. Challenge can be invigorating -- struggle is draining. The first step in unlocking your potential is to take inventory of your life and consider what's not working. The symptoms of things not working will be lack of something (not enough time, money, energy, relationships, etc)

2. Not knowing your style and values
Understanding your unique blueprint of the world is critical if you're going to make the right decisions for you. Consider what's important to you about your life and match your values to your activities to get yourself in alignment with your dreams.

3. Saying "Yes" to too many things
What activities are taking up your time? What's on your plate right now? And more importantly, what needs to come off your plate? Are you trying to force yourself to complete a project, have a relationship, build a business that doesn't work? Who or what do you need to say "No" to today?

4. Not being comfortable not knowing
Who knows what will happen today, tomorrow, next week or next year for that matter? Spending time in an anxious state of not knowing is not helpful or productive in any way, and will only make you more fearful. Having a death grip on something that's not working is more detrimental than being in the "goo" of not knowing. All creation takes place in this state of not knowing because it's becoming known!

5. Not having faith and trust in the process
When you are on the path to reaching your potential, it sometimes feels like the world has gone badly awry. The constant shifting and changing (and people leaving and new ones appearing) can have a devastating effect if you try to manipulate every situation to your needs. During this time, it is important to examine what IS working and what you ARE working toward instead of looking back and noticing the destruction.

I know that for my client (and myself too) these are the things we constantly go through as we evolve. It does become easier to go through the roller coaster of life with a few rules (and some good friends) along the way.

What to do if a team member wants to Take over manager's Role ???????

From CiteHR

Dear Seniors ,

I Request for your valuable sugestion

Iam working in an firm as an Assistant manager - HR Operations. I Handle a team of 8 Persons. 4 in Chennai , 3 in Pune and one in Hyd. We provide HR Service to our client. Iam working here since September , 2008. I got married in Dec 2008 so i had to take leave of 10 days , i had to train an Back up in chennai to perform my tasks in my absense.

When iam back , i could observe that he has taken over , and got more importance from my Client's end. He want to perform all the important tasks all alone and gain importance. He began to demand other team members. I did not want to fight , i want to handle this issue in an dignified manner . I Request you all to guide me how to handle.

I Had a word with my boss , My boss had told me to consider all the team members as children , and just go on. I Did the same but now i feel things are out of my control. My Boss provides all his support to me. But handling the team iam not satisfied from my end !!

Looking forward for your inputs

Solution:

Nithya,

These are common issues found every where in all departments. May be this guy is trying to act too smart but its not that easy all the while. Being in a position and handing a team is not that easy. Ultimately what it matters is performance, how do you handle and sportiveness. Dont worry. Dont get depressed.

Ok let me put it in this way..........

Firstly - I suggest you to be friendly to all members but at the same time make sure that they respect and obey you. Dont give space where they can take u as take it easy. Make sure there are no loop holes in this as well as dont share much of your personals with them. Maintain a limit for everything and take things seriously.

Secondly - Talk to your Boss and make sure that all the assisgned tasks from the clients is been diverted to you as you are responsible for it and then you decide which task has to be assigned to whom, the dead lines blog blog blog.....Before assigning the tasks call your team members for a meeting and assign the tasks for all the 8members. For Outstation members arrange a conference call. Every week follow up and get the daily task sheets from them. Make sure you update the same to your client as well as ur boss. Be more proactive this will help you in gaining confidence from client as well as ur boss.

Its more than 10months you have got married and its too late for you to take initial steps in sorting out this issue. These kind of matters should be closed as soon as you notice because if you leave them to grow then one day it will destroy you. There is no need to be too good or too kind to all. Be brave and bold. There should be command in your voice. Give them handfull of work and keep them busy.

Be confident in what ever you do and try to get back the cofidence from your client only then you can get back your position. When it comes to official works be strict with your team members and make sure you grab the clients attention.

૧૦ આદેશો તમારી જાતને જ આપો

મોટા - મોટા વિદ્વાનોથી પણ ભૂલ થાય છે. જો ભૂતકાળની ભૂલને જ પકડીને બેસી રહેશો, તો નવી શરૃઆત કરવાનો સમય જ નહીં મળે. તેથી ભૂતકાળને ભૂલી જઈને વર્તમાનનો આનંદ ઉઠાવો
૧. તમારી ઈચ્છા હોય, તો જ ‘હા’ પાડો
બધાને ખુશ કરવાના પ્રયાસમાં આખરે તમે ખુદ જ હેરાન થાઓ છો. તમને બિલકુલ ઈચ્છા ના હોય, તેવા કામ કે વસ્તુ માટે ‘હા’ ના પાડો. જો કોઈ પરાણે તમારી પાસે કાર્ય કરાવવા માંગતું હોય તો યાદ રાખો કે તેમાં તેમનો પોતાનો કોઈ સ્વાર્થ છુપાયેલો છે.
૨. વિચારીને બોલો
તમારા શબ્દોનું મહત્ત્વ જાણો. કંઈ પણ બોલતાં પહેલાં તમે શું બોલવાના છો તેનો વિચાર કરી લો. તમારી વાત સામેની વ્યક્તિ બરાબર સમજી શકે તે રીતે સ્પષ્ટતા સાથે કરો, જેથી ગેરસમજ થવાનો અવકાશ ના રહે.
૩. તમારી મર્યાદા સ્પષ્ટ કરો
તમારા દિમાગમાં શું ચાલી રહ્યું છે તે અન્ય કોઈ વ્યક્તિ કહી શકે નહીં. તેથી તમને ના ગમતી હોય તેવી બાબતોથી તેમને પરિચિત કરશો, તો જ તેઓ જાણી શકશે. તમારી મર્યાદારેખા બાંધી દો અને મિત્રો તથા સંબંધીઓને તમારા ગમા - અણગમાથી પરિચિત કરો.
૪. રમૂજવૃત્તિ કેળવો
કેટલાક લોકો જાણ્યે - અજાણ્યે અન્ય ઉપર કટાક્ષ કરે છે કે મહેણું મારી દે છે અને તેમનું દિલ દુભાવે છે. જો કોઈ તમારા ઉપર આવો કટાક્ષ કરે, તો તેને હસી કાઢો અને મોટું મન રાખીને ભૂલી જાવ.
૫. આત્મસન્માન જાળવો
તમારો મત, સમય અને તમારાં મૂલ્યો મહત્ત્વનાં છે. જો તમે જ તમારા પ્રત્યે આદર ના ધરાવો તો પછી બીજા પાસેથી આદર મેળવવાની અપેક્ષા કેવી રીતે રાખી શકો ?
૬. વચનનું પાલન કરો
અમુક પ્રતિકૂળ અને અનિવાર્ય સંજોગો સિવાય, તમે જે પણ વચન આપ્યું હોય તેનું પાલન કરો. તમારી પ્રાથમિકતાઓના આધારે આપેલું વચન પાળો. તમે તમારાં દાદી કે નાનીને મળવા જવાનું વચન આપ્યું હોય, તો જ્યારે પણ સમય મળે ત્યારે તેમની પાસે પહોંચી જાવ.
૭. લાગણીઓની કાળજી રાખો
શું તમે તમારી લાગણીઓ કરતાં અન્યની લાગણીને વધુ મહત્ત્વ આપો છો ? જો તમે દર વખતે આમ કરતાં હોવ, તો હવે પોતાની લાગણીઓ ઉપર ધ્યાન આપતા શીખો. યાદ રાખો કે કોઈના ક્ષણિક અહમને પોષવામાં તમે તમારી જરૃરિયાતોની ઉપેક્ષા કરી રહ્યા છો.
૮. આડી - અવળી અટકળોથી દૂર રહો
બીજી વ્યક્તિના મનમાં શું ચાલી રહ્યું છે, તે શું વિચારી રહી છે કે શું અનુભવી રહી છે તે તમે નથી જાણતા. જો જાણવું હોય તો તે માટે આડું - અવળું વિચાર્યા વિના પૂછી લેવું વધુ સારું છે. તે તમારા વિશે કેવું ધારશે અને તે શું વિચારશે તેવી ઝંઝટમાં પડીને વિચારો કરવા કરતાં તેને જ પૂછી લેવું ઉત્તમ છે.
૯. સ્વયંને માફ કરતાં શીખો
માનવ માત્ર ભૂલને પાત્ર. મોટા - મોટા વિદ્વાનો પણ ઘણી વખત ભૂલ કરી બેસે છે. જાતને દોષ દેવાનું છોડો. જો તમે તમારી ભૂલો બદલ પશ્ચાત્તાપ કરીને જાતને વખોડયા જ રાખશો, તો તમને આગળ વધવાનો અવકાશ જ નહીં મળે. તેથી ભૂતકાળ ભૂલીને ભૂલોમાંથી શીખ મેળવીને આગળ વધો.
૧૦. શ્રેષ્ઠ
તમે દરેક વ્યક્તિને ખુશ કરી શકો નહીં. તેવી જ રીતે દરેક વખતે તમારી જીત ના થાય તેવું પણ બને. તે સમયે તમારે તમારા નિર્ણયને વખોડવાની જરૃર નથી. તમે તમારો શ્રેષ્ઠ પ્રયાસ કર્યો તે ઘણી મહત્ત્વની વાત છે.

Our Life

જીંદગી આપણી !!!

થોડાક શબ્દો ઉચ્ચારવાથી અગ્નિની સાક્ષીએ લગ્ન થાય છે....

અને થોડાક વધુ શબ્દો ઉચ્ચારવાથી ઘરમાં અગ્નિનો સાક્ષાત્કાર થાય છે.!!

ધુળ જેવી છે જીંદગી આપણી......આંસુડા રેડી એમાં કિચ્ચડ ના કર.!!!

કાયદાનું શિક્ષણ મેં એટલી સારી રીતે હાંસલ કયું કે કાયદાનો અભ્યાસ પુરો થયા પછી મેં મારી કોલેજ પર દાવો માંડ્યો અને મારી સઘળી ટ્યુશન ફી પાછી મેળવી....

સંતાનને સારા સંસ્કાર આપવા ગમે તેટલા પ્રયાસ કરો.....આખરે તો એ મા-બાપને જ અનુસરશે!!!

બરફ જેવી છે આ જીંદગી ... જેનો ભુતકાળ પણ પાણી અને ભવિષ્યકાળ પણ પાણી....

પ્રશ્નો તો રહેવાના જ. સુખી લોકોને પ્રશ્ન થાય કે શું કરીએ તો ભૂખ લાગે..

અને દુઃખી લોકોનો પ્રશ્ન છે કે ભૂખ તો લાગે છે, પણ શું કરીએ?!!!

ઇશ્વરનું બેલેન્સ કેવું અદભુત છે... પાંચ મણ ઘઉંની બોરી ઉપાડી શકે તે મજુર એકી સાથે ખરીદી ના શકે; અને જે ખરીદી શકે છે તે શેઠ તેને ઊપાડી ના શકે.

કેટલાક લોકોનું દિલ દરિયા જેવું વિશાળ હોય છે..જેમાં એક ચકલું ય પોતાની તરસ ના છિપાવી શકે!!!

અને છેલ્લે....
શ્વાસ ખુટી જાય અને ઈચ્છાઓ બાકી રહી જાય.......તે મોત..
ઈચ્છાઓ ખુટી જાય અને શ્વાસ બાકી રહે ...........તે મોક્ષ!!
