Strength Of Facing Change - Inspirational Story

What do you do when you face any change in your life? Are you anxious about a new job, a new responsibility, a house move or some other life-changing event? Relax! New adventures make everyone nervous. When you reach beyond your comfort zone, away from what’s familiar and comfortable, anxious feelings are inevitable.

At such times, remember, fear is connected with joy.

We need new experiences to keep our minds fresh. We need new opportunities to feed the creativity of our souls. We need new adventures for personal growth.

Recognize that, through these experiences, you discover new parts of yourself. You might just reveal strength, courage and resilience you didn't know you had, and how great is that?

A leader should always have strength to face difficulties of life and rather changing himself, he should have enough courage to change the problem.

This management development / inspirational presentation was given by Mr. Zeeshan Sajwani in one of his training presentations. Take a good and look and reach past your fear and celebrate what your new adventures may bring. This can also be downloaded and used for team building and team motivation.

"Keep Learning... Your Future Depends On It"

A friend of mine, Adrian Martin, a Distribution Director at Avon Products, and I attended graduate school together, emailed me the following Time Management tip:

"One of the most basic time management enhancers that I think many of your readers could take advantage of is software application training. Software is so feature rich that we miss out on likely 50-75% of the features available to us because what we know serves us well enough. Consider a 20% improvement in your use of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook to name a few. Not only will the end products be completed faster but likely improved quality as well."

I attended a 20 minute seminar today at Gwinnett Hospital System that was put on for our staff called "NEW Microsoft tricks that can save you time". I learned a few new things - some of which I have already implemented. And I will save more than the 20 minutes it cost in the next month and every month after that.

I run a busy life and I constantly work to find the right balance between learning and doing.

One of the things I always admire about Leonardo Da Vinci not because he invented the scissors but his proficiency in so many fields. He also inspires me to reach higher. Keep learning my friend.......
