Having studied developmental and
behavioural psychology, where emphasis is upon putting a label to every
plausible human behaviour or condition; I feared I would become very
rigid and judgemental in my interaction with people. On the contrary it
has been a journey of wonderment and amazement. The sheer diversity of
personalities that I have encountered in years of psychological
counseling and coaching have been instrumental in augmenting my
spectrum. I see the entire world as a quaint blend of races, cultures,
personalities, behaviours, languages, norms and values. It is as if the
Creator took a palette and mixed all the colours, textures and moods and
created the Universe. Whenever I see a vibrant Picasso, I am reminded
that the human race is quite like that. Despite the amalgamation of all aspects, we still expect our species to conform to our frames of
reference.
Why do we judge people? Why do we want to change them, according to our
expectations and codes of behaviour? Why can’t we co-exist and accept
people with their radiance and shadows? Is it our ego at play when we
want to impose our archetype on others. This happens in all our
relationships whether of a husband and wife or parent and child , or
teacher and pupil or manager and subordinate. Think about it friends,
aren’t we enforcing certain rules on others, no matter what role we
play. The funny part is, that in a stranger to stranger relationship we
are spared of this ordeal. The raw conclusion is that when our emotions
get involved we want to evoke certain changes in the other person. 
subconsciously, such people believe that the world was created
for them, and the people around them should only exist as they want to
see them. It's a sad fact that most people can't accept others for what
they are, simply because they don't want to have to deal with the
differences. It is innate in humans to think their way is the right way,
and other people need to learn and adhere to there way. I wonder if we
try to eradicate the very habits that remind us of ourselves. As Carl
Jung rightly quoted “Everything that irritates us about others can lead
us to an understanding of ourselves.”
Accepting people as they are is something that hopefully we learn to do
as we mature and realize that we can't change people, especially our
loved ones. If they want to change, they'll change, and if we think our
way is the right way, hopefully, by our example, they will change. No
matter how hard we try to change the other person, the real
transformation actually occurs through self. In worst scenarios where a
loved one is going downhill due to self destructive behaviours, we can
not instill an altered behaviour pattern in them until and unless they
themselves are motivated to bring about a modification in their
personality. This is where a prudent friend, spouse, parent or manager
can assume the role of a coach rather than a field sergeant and let the
other person find his path leading towards success. 
the writer goes on to ask, "How do I start a business?"
The current recession presents the HR profession with the greatest
challenge it has faced for more than a decade. The focus is now very
clearly on improving performance whilst at the same time reducing cost.
For many organisations this means restructuring, downsizing and
redundancies, and the need to manage employee and industrial relations
carefully. For others this may also involve a fundamental review of HR
strategies and policies.
culture and traditions. Familiarity with
both is essential because each has a bearing on an employee's every day
behavior.

almost
the right word,” wrote Mark Twain, “is the difference between
lightening and the lightening bug.” One evening, the English poet
John Keats was sitting in his room with his friend Leigh Hunt. Hunt
was reading and Keats, sitting at a nearby table, was writing a
poem. At one point, Keats looked up and said: “Hunt, what do you
think of this? ‘A beautiful thing is an un-ending joy.’” “Good,”
said Hunt, but not quite perfect.” There was silence for a while,
then Keats looked up again. “How about this? ‘A thing of beauty is
an un-ending joy.’” “Better,” said his friend, “but still not quite
right.” Keats once again bent over the table, his pen making quiet
scratching noises on the paper. Finally, he spoke again: “Now, what
do you think of this? ‘A thing of beauty is a joy forever.’” Hunt
looked admiringly at his friend. “That,” he said, “will live as long
as the English language is spoken.
