Sunday Tabloids # 19 - Showed you Love, Replicate now

A Father was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his highly educated son. Suddenly a crow perched on their window.
.
The Father asked his Son, "What is this?"
.
The Son replied "It is a crow".
.
After a few minutes, the Father asked his Son the 2nd time, "What is this?"The Son said "Father, I have just now told you "It's a crow".After a little while, the old Father again asked his Son the 3rd time,what is this?"
.
At this time some 'expression' of irritation was felt in the Son's tone when he said to his Father with a rebuff. "It's a crow, a crow".
.
A little after, the Father again asked his Son the 4th time, "What is this?"
.
This time the Son shouted at his Father, "Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times 'IT IS A CROW'. Are you not able to understand this?"
.
A little later the Father went to his room and came back with an old tattered diary, which he had maintained since his Son was born. On opening a page, he asked his Son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:
.
"Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My Son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a Crow. I hugged him lovingly each time h e asked me the same question again and again for 23 times. I did not at all feel irritated I rather felt affection for my innocent child".
.
While the little child asked him 23 times "What is this", the Father had felt no irritation in replying to the same question all 23 times and when today the Father asked his Son the same question just 4 times, the Son felt irritated and annoyed.
.
So...
.
If your parents attain old age, do not repulse them or look at them as a burden, but speak to them a gracious word; be cool, obedient, humble and kind to them. Be considerate to your parents.
.
From today say this aloud, "I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered their selfless love on me.
.
They crossed all mountains and valleys without seeing the storm and heat to make me a person presentable in the society today".
.
Say a prayer to God, "I will serve my old parents in the BEST way. I will say all good and kind words to my dear parents, no matter how they behave”

Yes, Married but to the Job – Workaholism

Workaholism, this is the buzz word in today’s working professionals. Everything goes fine till he or she get married. That is the time they realize they already got married, but to the job. Read on to find more about Workaholism and how you can learn work-life balance to lead a smooth life style.

It is bitter truth that our thoughts and energies got directed towards work than our personal relationships. Work dominates our thought process whether we are in office or home. There are people who feel comfortable at office than home. Work has come to occupy the central part of our life. We often forget that “work” is something just part of our life.

Workaholism is to be considered as an addiction. It is the choice made by one to overcome the psychological stresses. It might be a result from fear of job security or to sustain lavishing life style. The worrisome fact is those workaholic people doesn’t realize that they are under addiction and they tend to find solution to their family problems in other way around.

If you are a Workaholic, you will face more hurdles in your personal life. Strain in personal relationship, it will affect relationship with spouse, children, extended family and friends. It will have definite damage to your health in your later stage, but you don’t find anyone to take care of you at that time. You will not be flexible since you enjoyed more power at office and you will try to have the same authority in your personal life. You tend to do all the stuffs by your own and you are reluctant to delegate which affects your overall productivity and will put set back in your career growth.

How do you find that you are Workaholic? If you find that weekends and vacations are terrible and you cannot wait to go back to work. If you don’t have any interest in anything other than your work and you forget your spouse, child’s birthdays, wedding anniversary but you make all efforts to gift your boss’s birthday. Yes, this is the time you need to hear your inner voice and chart out a plan for work-life balance.

Workaholism is preventable or recovery is possible from the addiction, but one has to be ready to make the choice at right time. This requires lot of support from loved ones and do need careful planning.

Schedule your time, this way you can finish your task in a pre-planned way. This helps you to do more task in a stipulated time.

You should force yourself into more social interaction, have more weekend parties with family, friends. You will soon realize how your personal relationship is getting strengthened.

Allot time to take care of your health, go for regular exercise, and go to spa to rejuvenate your energy.

Have 5 minutes short break every hour amid of work to say “hello” to your office friends.

Sharpen your mind, attend workshops, read books, go to theatre to keep your mind working.

Revive your goals and set new targets for both your work and personal life.

Hope this post helps to do self evaluation of your work-life balance and make a choice of changes if you find any imbalances.

There is a famous saying, “No one on their deathbed ever says they wish they had spent more time at the office”.

Work is important for us to live, but life is more important to live. Inviting all your comments…

Sunday Tabloids # 18 - Your acts build your life

An old carpenter about to retire was telling his boss on his plan to stop working and enjoy life with his wife and kids. He was so excited about retiring that he wasn't even looking forward to the paycheck of that month. All he wanted was to retire.
.
The boss was upset about losing a good worker and as a personal favor he asked the man to work on the construction of one last house. The old carpenter didn't want to accept it but he couldn't deny his boss one last favor. So he took the job, but it was clear that his heart wasn't in it. He just wanted to get it finished and over with. Consequently he was careless and ended up using bad quality material in the construction of the house. It was a sad way to finish such an excellent career with so many years of total dedication.
.
When the house was done his boss was there to inspect it. He gave the key of the house to the old carpenter and said "This is your house. It's a gift for you after so many years of hard work."
.
The carpenter was shocked "What a shame!" he thought. If he had known that it was his house he would have done things differently.
.
Remember that you are the carpenter of your own life. You construct your life a little bit every day. You hit a nail here; build a wall there and so on. Life is a do-it-yourself project. Your acts and choices now will build the house you will live in later on. So do it right.

Custom Build Home - Let your dream becomes reality

Last week I received a call in the midnight; To my surprise it was my close friend during school days. I wondered that he still remembered me and how he got my contacts. Based on our conversation, I came to know that he got married and settled in USA. Last year he was blessed with baby boy and enjoying the life with his tiny family. Even from school days he has got big dreams to earn more money and build his own home. He is the one who always looks for perfection whatever he does. During our conversation this comes to my mind and I enquired about his dream. Yes, he is earning good money and he built his wonderful dream home. I wondered how he managed to build his dream home in such short period of time. He said all that came into reality through Schumacher Homes. They are the leading custom home builders in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. They have hundreds of floor plans and they will customize to fit your wants and needs.

It sounds interesting and I feel happy that my friend achieved what he wants in life. Thank you "Schumacher Homes"

One of the most important Truck Accessories are Truck Winches. This is a hand tool which gives the power of 10 or more solid guys to move or pull it around.

There are various points to be noted before buying truck winches. Pulling power, this is one important specification you need to look for since it should be adequate for the weight of your truck or car. There are two types of winches, Electric powered and Hydraulic powered. Both has its own pros and cons, the Electric powered winches comes in different varieties and easy to install.

Love & Marriage - Should know the difference...

A student asks a teacher, "What is love?"

The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat and come back.

But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."

The student went to the field, go through first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wonders....may be there is a bigger one later.

Then he saw another bigger one... But may be there is an even bigger one waiting for him.

Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he start to realize that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he know he has missed the biggest one, and he regretted.

So, he ended up and went back to the teacher with empty hand.

The teacher told him, "...this is love... You keep looking for a better one, but when later you realize, you have already miss the person...."

"What is marriage then?" the student asked.

The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back.
.
But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."

The student went to the corn field, this time he is careful not to repeat the previous mistake, when he reach the middle of the field, he has picked one medium corn that he feel satisfy, and come back to the teacher.

The teacher told him, "This time you bring back a corn.... You look for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one you get....This is marriage."
