Financial Management – Joke

July 25th, 2010 admin 1 comment

A beggar to another beggar: I had a grand dinner at Taj yesterday. How? The other beggar asked.

First beggar: Some one gave me a Rs 100/- note yesterday. I went to Taj and ordered dinner worth Rs 1,000/-,

And enjoyed the dinner. When the bill came, I said, I had no money. The Taj manager called the policeman, and handed me over to him. I gave the Rs 100/- note to the police fellow, and he set me free.

A wonderful example of financial management indeed

factor that causes others are more advanced will make us frustrated and
considers this area of work that was involved it was impossible to give a
success.

take us up the top of the career ladder.

1. Good Speaker
The ability to speak with diverse individuals is an absolute demand for
success.

For example, in a friendly eye contact, a rich vocabulary and the ability to
customize the language we use with the speaker also hold the role.

So, practice talking courteously with whoever we meet in daily life or join
a discussion group to hone debating skills.

situations, excellent build a network’s success, helped in working in a
private group.

2. No wishy-washy
A good leader has a firm attitude and always shows this attitude every time
he was faced with the problem that requires it to make a decision.

Whatever decision is made it will cause the pros and cons. But remember, the
decision making process will bring us closer to the ability to complete a
given challenge. The key, make sure that the decisions we take are carefully
considered and there is a reason that accompany it.

3. Accountability
Another important part in achieving success is the willingness to accept
responsibility, whether successful or failed. If this is done, we are
considered ready to accept greater responsibility and reap respect from
colleagues because of humility possessed.

In order to minimize mistakes, taking into account all possibilities and
immediately take appropriate steps to correct the mistakes we did.

4. Stay Positive
By treating the positive outlook, we would likely spur other people to share
their positive attitude so that might be more productive and more reliable
for executive positions.

A positive attitude is really easy and formed our own, by emphasizing the
positive things in every situation. Essentially, do not see a problem, but
look at the way out.

5. Self Presentation
Learning how to express themselves on the tips is very important.

For instance, neatly-dressed gives a successful image in the eyes of other
people before we say a word. No need expensive, but clothes with high
standards of quality seam indicates that in many ways even we have high
standards and this is what makes other people perceive us amazed. How much
we give strong influence on colleagues, boss or client will see how well we
perform in their eyes. Has an elegant style to support our success is not
something bad, really. Do not forget, the appearance will enhance what we
feel about ourselves that will ultimately make us more confident.

targets set under.

To overcome it, learn to write everything in detail so that allows us to
make sure everything is done according to the availability of time there.
The result, we have a better quality of work and do not be surprised if in
the future we will be entrusted with the responsibility of continuing to
increase.

Ability to manage time does not mean we have no spare time for yourself, you
know. This is precisely the key factor in our success compares doing
everything in a timely and better quality. Do not procrastinate, set your
goals challenging but realistic, and take advantage of time as efficiently
as possible.

7. Detecting Solutions
Roots of success of business leaders is the ability to find solutions to big
problems. This capability is not immediately obvious but must be shown to
others.

If we and our colleagues in such a division has been disciplined, there’s no
harm in always finding out what is most a problem.

Is it a lack of communication among staff, conflicts surrounding the rights
of each employee, technical problems, or difficulty accessing the
information. Find and then act. Do not be afraid of extra work if it intends
to find a solution. Remember, the person who eagerly challenged to handle
the hurdles instead. Essentially, do not be limited to content on a routine.

Why do we dream?

Why do we dream?

Melbourne: Scientists may have finally uncovered why we dream – it could be
a crucial tool for sorting and filing information and discarding mental
trash, says an Australian researcher.

“One theory is that it’s a way of allowing your brain to recover and
consolidate all the memories and activities of the previous day, like filing
time,” The Daily Telegraph quoted Prof Drew Dawson from the Centre For Sleep
Research at the University of South Australia, as saying.

He added: “If we give someone a complex new task to learn and we let them
sleep but don’t let them dream, they’re almost as bad the next day as if
they didn’t sleep at all.”

Many people mistakenly believe “dream sleep”, or rapid eye movement (REM)
sleep, is the deepest stage of sleep.

According to Prof Dawson, humans were more deeply asleep prior to dreams.
The average sleeper went through several sleep cycles a night, each lasting
about two hours and finishing with REM.

Prof Dawson said: “Your brainwaves while you’re dreaming actually look very
similar to your brainwaves when you are awake.”

This has led some scientists to theorise that dreaming is an evolutionary
survival mechanism, which helps keep our brain alert.

Prof Dawson said: “It might prevent you getting so deeply asleep that you
would be vulnerable if you needed to wake up quickly.”

Brainwave tests on animals demonstrate all mammals dream, however, whether
dogs and cats and other species actually have visual dreams is impossible to
know.

Prof Dawson said: “It’s reasonable to think they probably do, but we don’t
know for sure.”

Sleep and fatigue expert Dr Stuart Baulk believes humans were essentially
paralysed when they entered dream sleep, with muscle tone changing to
prevent the body moving around.

Occasionally, some people experienced “sleep paralysis”, where they woke and
were fully conscious but still paralysed and seeing dreamlike images.

Dr Baulk said: “Although you see the room around you like normal, you might
still get the images from a dream.”

A Managerial Challenge – Story

A Managerial Challenge – Story

The manager of a large corporation got a heart attack, and the doctor told
him to go for several weeks to a farm to relax.

The guy went to a farm, and after a couple of days he was very bored, so
he asked the farmer to give him some job to do.

The farmer told him to clean up all of the cow manure.

The farmer thought that to somebody coming from the city, working the whole
life sitting in an office, it will take over a week to finish the job, but
for his surprise the manager finished the job in less than one day.

The next day the farmer gave to the manager a more difficult job: to cut
the heads of 500 chickens. The farmer was sure that the manager will not be
able to do the job, but at the end of the day the job was done.

The next morning, as most of the jobs in the farm were done, the farmer
asked the manager to divide a bag of potatoes in two boxes: one box with
small potatoes, and one box with big potatoes.

At the end of the day the farmer saw that the manager was sitting in front
of the potatoes bag, but the two boxes were empty.

The farmer asked the manager, “How is that you made such difficult jobs
during the first days, and now you cannot do this simple job?”

The manager answered: “Listen, all my life I’m cutting heads and dealing
with crap, but now you ask me to make decisions!”

Arena matters to us

July 17th, 2010 admin No comments

There once lived a great mathematician in a village outside Ujjain . He was
often called by the local king to advice on matters related to the economy.
His reputation had spread as far as Taxila in the North and Kanchi in the
South. So it hurt him very much when the village headman told him, “You may
be a great mathematician who advises the king on economic matters but your
son does not know the value of gold or silver.”

The mathematician called his son and asked, “What is more valuable – gold
or silver?” “Gold,” said the son. “That is correct. Why is it then that the
village headman makes fun of you, claims you do not know the value of gold
or silver? He teases me every day. He mocks me before other village elders
as a father who neglects his son. This hurts me. I feel everyone in the
village is laughing behind my back because you do not know what is more
valuable, gold or silver. Explain this to me, son.”

So the son of the mathematician told his father the reason why the village
headman carried this impression. “Every day on my way to school, the village
headman calls me to his house. There, in front of all village elders, he
holds out a silver coin in one hand and a gold coin in other. He asks me to
pick up the more valuable coin. I pick the silver coin. He laughs, the
elders jeer, everyone makes fun of me. And then I go to school. This happens
every day. That is why they tell you I do not know the value of gold or
silver.”

The father was confused. His son knew the value of gold and silver, and yet
when asked to choose between a gold coin and silver coin always picked the
silver coin. “Why don’t you pick up the gold coin?” he asked. In response,
the son took the father to his room and showed him a box. In the box were at
least a hundred silver coins. Turning to his father, the mathematician’s son
said, “The day I pick up the gold coin the game will stop. They will stop
having fun and I will stop making money.”

The bottom line is :

Sometimes in life, we have to play the fool because our seniors and our
peers, and sometimes even our juniors like it. That does not mean we lose in
the game of life. It just means allowing others to win in one arena of the
game, while we win in the other arena of the game. We have to choose which
arena matters to us and which arenas do not.
