O nce upon a time there was a painter who had just completed his course. He took 3 days and painted beautiful scenery. He wanted people's opinion about his caliber and painting skills. He put his creation at a busy street-crossing. And just down below aboard which read "I have painted this piece. Since I'm new to this profession I might have committed some mistakes in my strokes etc. Please put a cross wherever you see a mistake." While he came back in the evening to collect his painting he was completely shattered to see that whole canvass was filled with X's (crosses) and some people had even written their comments on the painting. Disheartened and broken completely he ran to his master's place and burst into tears.  This young artist was breathing heavily and master heard him saying"I'm useless and if this is what I have learnt to paint I'm not worth becoming a painter. People have rejected me completely. I feel like dying" Master smiled a...

Your heart beats faster when you hear their name. Your body melts when you are in their arms  They are the only one that you want to be with  No one else is even worth looking at  You would walk 3 miles in the snow just to see them  You will do everything in your power to make them happy When someone asks for your number, you say "you can call my boy/girl friend and get it from them  When every romantic thing makes you think of them  When you cry when you won't see each other for a while  You go to sleep thinking about them You wake up thinking about them You want to spend every moment with them You don't mind if all they want to do is cuddle Silence doesn't bother you They are not only your lover, but also your best friend You can tell them anything You can go to the movies and actually WATCH the movie They are always there for you They are there when times are rough When you say, "I LOVE YOU" and mean i Courtesy: facebookquotes4u.com

What is Karma? Karma is the Sanskrit word for action. It is equivalent to Newton’s law of ‘every action must have a reaction’. When we think, speak or act we initiate a force that will react accordingly. This returning force maybe modified, changed or suspended, but most people will not be able eradicate it. This law of cause and effect is not punishment, but is wholly for the sake of education or learning. A person may not escape the consequences of his actions, but he will suffer only if he himself has made the conditions ripe for his suffering. Ignorance of the law is no excuse whether the laws are man-made or universal. To stop being afraid and to start being empowered in the worlds of karma and reincarnation, here is what you need to know about karmic laws. 1. THE GREAT LAW – “As you sow, so shall you reap”. This is also known as the “Law of Cause and Effect”. – Whatever we put out in the Universe is what comes back to us. – If what we want is Happiness, Peace, Love, Friendship… T...

"Oleg, I am very disturbed by a conversation between 2 managers at the airport I just heard. Went like this - "John, I am so depressed. We have to make cuts, and I feel so bad because I am loyal to my people." John replied "Do not be. There is no more loyalty of employees to companies any more". Oleg, can you please write one of your blogs as a response to John ?" John, I hope you are reading this blog. Loyalty is something you earn.  You earn loyalty not by telling your people how great you are, not by your profit reports, and NOT by your mission statements. You earn loyalty by doing something good for your people. By taking real risks for your people By standing up for them By getting them what they need By being there for them when you they need you By helping them to realize their dreams My friend recruiter said he stopped trying to recruit people out of companies like Google. He said they would not leave even for a 50 percent raise because of their lo...

Translated by Allen Montrasio, teacher @JohnPeterSloan_La Scuola. Talking about excuses I immediately think about the stories children make up not to admit they broke the vase, ate the cake, didn’t do their homework. I remember that when she was small, my sister once ate an entire box of my cousin’s chocolates and gradually made any proof of the misdeed disappear by throwing the wrappers in different wastebaskets, tearing up the box and putting the pieces in the stove, at school and in her wardrobe, where eventually my mother found the last red fragment of cardboard that proved her guilt. Cornered, in the face of the evidence, she confessed that “If you had waited another day, you wouldn’t have even found that…”. Knowing she’d done wrong, she faced the punishment in good spirit. I too have done my little misdeeds, but this isn’t the time to talk about them. Little childish lies, told to avoid the just punishment or reproach that follows a wrong action. Sometimes, creative alternative r...
