We all have been talking about Michael Phelp’s legendary achievements and his greatness at the Beijing Olympics. In the meanwhile, also competing was Natalie Du Toit. She swam in the gruelling 10km swimming marathon race and finished 16th. What’s so great about that?
She lost her left leg in a motorcycle accident 7 years ago..
And we think we have problems..
Very important to empathize when others are in trouble. Empathize first and then offer solution..
I was a meano today seeing a friend suffer with a sprain and I said – you know, this one time I had a bad neck sprain.. and anyway, she didnt react too well..
That’s the time to empathize and my reaction was exactly opposite to what should ideally have been the case!
its good to buckle down and just do some really simple things because anything above simple could get screwed potentially.
Always good to speak to positive people as well! They lift your day..
Who’s positive? That definition would depend on who we each find positive. Generally, they are just a common bunch.. :D
important just run with it..
Embrace the chaos as some would say! :)
…
make sure to carry the product around..
If you are selling shoes, make sure its not all talk.. and that people get a chance to walk.. ;)
(Yes..that was lame..)
given to us with the permission to do as we like is the ultimate test of creativity..
it was Jack Welch I think who said a CEO is expected to turn up record profits every quarter, and make sure that the people in his company are doing what they love, and make sure that they are not overworked so as to make sure their work-life balance is optimum..
Who are we talking about again? Superman?
Moral of the story: ‘Balance’ is academic..
To each..his/her own..
but nobody is willing to pay the price..
This one hit me really hard when I first heard it. True, all the same..
there’s definitely something wrong with it! – Said the Prof who was giving us a briefing on an electrical engineering project module.
He’ s got a point! Only when you do get negative feedback do you know that there’s something right in what you are doing.
As Randy Pausch said, the moment people stop pointing out your mistakes, your game’s done!
Am quoting Randy Pausch a lot, aren’t I..
