Assertiveness
Assertiveness is a technique to improve the way you get along with people and communicate. They may not seem important. But you would be surprised when you understand what a big difference you have made by communicating effectively. By being assertive and communicative you become clear but not rude. You tend to listen more to others so that you understand others’ view better. Learning to be assertive requires lot of effort. One has to be patient, and more amiable to acquire it. These two traits help you break away from rude behavior patterns.
In difficult situation most people end up being aggressive. Such situation leaves a bitter scar on one’s mind. Sometimes, though we are assertive, we won’t get what we want. But still it gives us the satisfaction that we have stood up for our views and respected others.
What is to be done to cultivate assertiveness?
One has to be direct in stating one’s expectation clearly. This directness cleans all confusions.
Your calmness and composure sometimes expose the immaturity of others and perhaps, give you upper hand to handle a situation tactfully.
In order to be assertive, one need not necessarily be rude or bossy but one can still be assertive with polite with polite but firm voice.
A lamp can never Light
A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still leaning himself. A lamp can never light another unless it continues to burn its own flame.
It is only when we are not mentally disturbed that we can always do the right thing at the right at the right time in the right way.
Little Drops of Water
Little drops of water, little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean and the pleasant land,
So the little minutes, humble though they be
Make the mighty ages of eternity.
Life
Life spent with someone for a lifetime may be meaningless, but a few moments spent with someone who really loves and cares for you more than life itself.
It is Wisdom
It is wisdom to leave that which has not arrived, and to attend to that which is on hand with such concentration of effort as shall leave no loophole for regret to creep in.
Teacher! The role model
I don’t care for praise or blame
I try my best without caring for gain.
I take it as a challenge
To serve my friends
I want them all of to be
Wonderful gems.
I prepare my notes
With lost of pain
To give something new
Is always my aim.
Silence is Yoga
Talking is to fool is gossip
Talking to a Sadhu is satsang.
Talking to a friend is chat
Talking to a boss is communication
Talking to a student is teaching
Talking to a voter is canvassing
Talking to the depressed is counseling.
Talking to an enemy is anger
Talking to oneself is brooding
Talking to God is prayer
Talking to none is silence
And silence is Yoga

There was a doctor in Benaras who spent 5 minutes in the morning and evening for mediation on God. Knowing this, his colleagues and friends laughed at him. One day they argued that he was wasting ten precious minutes on something, which he had been misled into believing. The doctor replied, “Well, if God does not exist, I agree that I am wasting ten minutes a day. But, if He exists? I am afraid you are wasting your entire lifetime. I prefer to waste ten minutes rather than a lifetime. Why should you grudge me the ten minutes joy that I derive from? I am not robbing you of your joy; why should you rob me of mine. He asked. The critics were silenced. –Baba- Chinna Katha

Tackle Your Emotion With Care

Tackle Your Emotion With Care
Life never has a smooth path. Our journey on it is bumpy. Many a time we find ourselves in a crisis. We feel desperate, helpless, lonely and depressed. Causes of this may be many and vary from person to person. But the solution to its is certainly similar. If we learn how to cope up with emotional crisis, we may be able to tackle this more gracefully.
When you find yourself in a situation of this sort, keep, communication open and ongoing. Don’t suppress your feelings and think that others might belittle you. Sure, you will have somebody in your family or your social circle, lean on them. A talk to someone about your problems may promote your mental health, ease you out of an embarrassing moment of your life. Certainly, it serves as an outlet to your pent up anger and helplessness.
Yet another way to overcome an emotional crisis is getting involved in a support group and accepting help with no second thought. When you are down and out , that is ,when you need others to lift your spirits, you need a few words of encouragement with the help of which you will be in a better position to regain your lost self-confidence.
A counselor can lend a helping hand to you . They help you define, understand, and cope up with your problems. You must understand, and cope up with your problems. You must understand, that when you are distraught, you need to be more focused. When you are made to understand, you will be able to find a solution for your own problem. Slowly you develop the needed acumen to handle your emotions when a similar situation arises in your life.
You are good but be a Better
Simply saying “ I am good”
Is not better than
A piece of dry wood.
Lead a life of sainthood,
Discarding all that is crude
That is the way
To prove your manhood.
Then alone can
You raise your hood
And say with pride,
I have proved that
“I am good’.
Truth stands on its own evidence. It does not require any other testimony to prove its true, it is self –effulgent.

Success is waiting for you

Success is waiting for you
You can start at anytime if you want to be successful. But you have to start.
You would not accomplish anything if you wait for all the possible objections to be overcome. Taking a new step, uttering a new word, is what people fear most.
Don’t be afraid to live. Don’t wait for things to change. Don’t wait until you have more time, until you are less tired, , until you get the promotion, until you settle down. Don’t wait for a major event in you life to occur before you begin to live.
Begin where you are. Work where you are. The hour you are waiting now, dreaming of some far off success, is crowded with tremendous possibilities.
When you take the first step, your mind will mobilize all its forces to assist you. Once you have started , all that is within you and unknown forces around you will come to your assistance.
The only way to start on the road to success is to move your feet, one step at a time in the direction you want to go. Success is waiting for you. (courtesy; “Dr, Bharath Chandras’s Success Digest”)

Man comes into this world without his consent, and leaves it against his will. When he is little, the big girls kiss him and when he is big little girls kiss him.

If he is religious, he is a hypocrite. If he does not go to temple, he is a hardened sinner. If he give to charity, it is for show. If he does not, he is a stingy person. If he dies young, there was a great future before him. If he lives to a ripe age, he is an old fellow. If he saves money, he is a miser. If he spends it, he is spendthrift. Such is life.

Criticize Effectively(Recycled story c/f)
Monday, October 06, 2008
Criticize Effectively
When something goes wrong, you are tempted to criticize the person responsible for it. The temptation to label the person as “Careless” is very easy, but criticism needs to be used as correctional tool without any anger whatsoever.
Criticize only in private. To do otherwise would mean lose of face and perhaps canceling the value of the correction.
Preface criticism with kind words. You must acknowledge the person’s previous efforts to do work well.
Your comments should be directed at the act, not at the person.
Do not expect the change immediately.
Avoid overemphasizing mistake again and again. If necessary tell how to do it right.
Ask for cooperation and never demand it. An implied “Let us work this out together.” Is most effective.
It is always better to state clearly what needs improvement.
It is best to bring with a morale booster , end up in a positive fashion showing faith in a person’s willingness and ability to comply. This sets the stage for the acceptance of your suggestion for improvement. K.C Venkatraman

Way to Happiness
Keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, expect little , give much. Fill your life with love. Scatter sunshine.
He who loves his enemy
Is a religious persons;
He who serves his enemy
Is a spiritual person;
He who does not have an enemy
Is an enlightened person.
Good humor is one of the best articles of dress one can wear in society.
One should learn to stand steady before trying to run.
Designer of Your Future
If you learn to translate every event of your life into a positive one, you will stop being a prisoner of your past and become designer of your future.
