Always add a Feather


It's been over a year and still I don't know what's the motivation. going through my dumped PC or or my son sleeping in my bed. All the same here I am typing away.

Today I woke up thinking about what I learnt from a friend last night. Am always happy to learn new things and am glad to add to my collection of ideas, but something won't stop pounding in my heart.
I almost didn't want to listen. I was so sure I knew more than this guy that I almost don't want to listen. And he was so sure of what he was saying that he insisted on explaining to me.

The question is simple, was it pride or arrogance, superiority or the believe that "I too know".

That got me worried I am or should I say was always eager to learn and I still can't understand what happens last night.

My Point:

The feeling that I am better at something than another or there isn't any new thing to learn could derail ones career. There are always new things to learn from all sort of people ranging from the security guy to the gentle house help, colleagues and superior in our various industries. We could also learn from a novice...yes that's the annoying part. we should lower our pride and learn anyway as we are adding feathers every time we learn.

I learnt something about VIN and year and model of automobile. Now if you want to know more ask me questions and you will gladly add to your feathers.

Thanks for your patience and do have the best of weeks.

Duty

Money has different names!!! In temple or church, it’s called donation. In school, it’s fee.  In marriage, it’s called dowry.  In divorce, alimony. When you owe someone, it’s debt. When you pay the government, it’s tax. In court, it’s fines. Civil servant retirees, it’s pension. Employer to workers, it’s salary. Master to subordinates, it’s wages. To children, it’s allowance. When you borrow from bank, it’s loan. When you offer after a good service. it’s tips. To kidnappers, it’s ransom. Illegally received in the name of service, it’s bribe.  When the retarded have no new ideas they’ll shout ” Spend some f***ing money !” or “Spend some more f***ing money !’  The question is, “when a husband gives to his wife, what do we call it???”  ANSWER: Money given to your wife is called DUTY, and every man has to do his duty because wives are not DUTY FREE.

Effective Communication.

He dresses neat, looks handsome, and always talk with a aura of pride, people always want to listen to him and he makes friends and "friends" quite easily.He is the perfect sales person. Many a times we wonder why we are not making those sales,why our company is lagging, why we fail to get those contracts and we are the only ones at the bottom of our industrial table. Most times (I did not say all the time oh), it is due to the way we communicate with the other person(corporate organization do have faces) We have to command the attention of the other person not in a superior complex but in a gentle manner. You give all your attention like you are making love and the outcome of that dialogue is your much anticipated baby. We communicate with our dress, the way you talk, walk, gesticulate even with the eyes. You will have to learn to do it like James Bond. Then I tell you even the devil will listen when you tell him to shut up. Communication is when you speak all the g...
