Dear Friends
Its strange how every morning, I put up a mask
of a person that I am not, so that I can effectively fool others
into thinking of me - differently. Wonderful as it may sound, it
does not work!!! people can see through me like an empty Vessel ….
Yet I continue this contrivance day in and day out, feeling very
happy with myself at having fooled others. Little do I know that I
am just fooling myself. As my life continues I keep going deeper &
deeper into this quagmire of low self esteem shrouded by a façade of
confidence, while internally I suffer from lack of confidence,
Insecurity , depression and unhappiness - all the stigmas attached
to my low self-esteem.
If I don’t like myself how can I make others like me? If I don’t
love myself, how can others love me?
It shouldn’t matter to me to crave the approval of others so that I
start liking myself. I need to be at peace with myself. I should be
able to look straight in the mirror, without shying away due to the
nagging inner voice of disapproval. I should be scaring away all the
demons of self- doubt giving way to a stream of positive signals.
For once I can connect with my inner soul doing what is right, without
the pressures of conformity or external appreciation
If I will not take responsibility of building my self esteem then
who will. I am a living a life of deceit, fabricated by my robotic
existence; until I realize that all the problems in my life are not
external but internal.
Self Esteem has to do with all my thought processes regarding my
achievements, My strengths & weaknesses, my social status – how
others see me, my purpose in life, my place in the world, my future
potentials etc. etc. just to name a few
“It is never too late to become what you might have been”
Where do I
start at rebuilding a new me? When in doubt take the difficult path.
1. Start with your fears and face them, they aren’t as bad as you
think they are. Fears are like bullies, they fade away once you encounter
them. 2. For once forgive yourself for all those failures. Look at
them as stepping stones for future progress 3. Start dreaming as
“the whole universe conspires to help you achieve it” 4. Talk to
yourself, give yourself encouragement, motivate yourself, you owe it
to yourself.
Wishing all our friends an exalted self esteem, may you all reach
indescribable heights within the realm of self, to attain continuous
success in life. Look forward to your
comments/ suggestions…. to help us
improve ourselves

Case of the Month:
Ecology Check |
 No, this is not becoming a "green magazine". With ecology, we mean "making
sure that our actions do not cause harm to other persons." To some extent,
this type of ecology is regulated by legislation, e.g. in the areas of
"stalking", "sexual harassment" and "date rape" to take some delicate
issues. The question taken into consideration is the following one:
Can you "love so much that it becomes dangerous for the other"?...

Strategic
Visioning (article) |
 Imagine That
The process of developing a vivid picture of the future is an important step
in creating a future that is better than today. A clear, motivating image
can inspire us to reach higher and overcome challenges. Once created, a
vision will begin to impact today as a foundation for new decisions.
While all that sounds great, crafting a meaningful vision of the future
isn't always that simple! A blank piece of paper can be daunting whether you
are an artist, a writer, a programmer, or a CEO. If your natural inclination
is to skip 'the vision' and ...

Delegation -
How to Cure "Delegation
Deficiency"
(article) |
 Is it hard for you to hand off projects and responsibilities? It’s
time to put aside your ego, identify what type of
"delegation-deficient" manager you are, accept some advice about how
to cure this condition - and then take a vacation.
Brad had a
managerial condition known informally as "delegation deficiency." As
a recently appointed manager of an accounts payable department, Brad
knew every function backward and forward, earning himself a
reputation as the resident "guru." That worked to his disadvantage
once he....

Intuition:
The Spark That Fuels Vision (article) |
 What makes a company owner risk everything to go against both "the numbers"
and the recommendations of trusted advisors? Why does a manager put a career
on the line by pushing decisions that flout the accepted wisdom? And what is
the true origin of "hare-brained" ideas that end up making history in an
organization?
Many people consider hunches or gut feelings to be true indications of what
is right, even if the facts say otherwise. In an interview, Richard DeVos,
co-founder of Amway Corporation, emphasized the inhibiting effect of
operating strictly by the numbers. In his view, total reliance on facts
limits the adventurous spirit that's crucial to the process of
innovation and discovery. DeVos thinks that facts will tell you to do

Getting
Value From Training
Get Some ROI (Return On Investment) (article) |
 All too
often, potential benefits from training seminars are lost because
the supports required for the application of learning are absent.
And let's face it -- nobody can afford to send people for training
just for the fun of it. We all expect that training will somehow
impact upon a person's present or future ability to contribute to
the employing organization. How do we "make it so"?
General Principles
Getting value from training isn't magical. There are some general
principles that you can adapt to ensure that training for yourself
and your staff results in changes in the workplace. First, ....
