Glass of Milk!

There’s a saying which goes something like this: Bread cast on the waters comes back to you. The good deed you do today may benefit you or someone you love at the least expected time. If you never see the deed again at least you will have made the world a better place – And, after all, isn’t that what life is all about?

Funny Quotes!

Turkey and Bullshit

A turkey was chatting with a bull. “I would love to be able to get to thetop of that tree,” sighed the turkey, “but I haven’t got the energy.”

“Well, why don’t you nibble on some of my droppings?” replied the bull. “They’re packed with nutrients.”

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next day, after eatingsome more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night,the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Moral of the story:
Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won’t keep you there.

Are you suffering from “knowing it all”?

Do you know someone who knows everything there is to know about something? Do you know someone who believes he or she is the world’s greatest expert ina subject? Do you know people who think they know it all?

If so, you know the first reason why someone cannot learn.”You cannot study a subject if you think you know all about it to begin with.”A student who thinks he knows all there is to know about a subject will not be able to learn anything in it.”A person might already be familiar with a subject from previous experience and, having had success in that field, now has the idea that he knows all aboutit.”

“With that obstacle in the way, one can become completely bogged down in his studies and not make forward progress.”This is true for a student of any subject.” — L. Ron Hubbard (bogged: hindered or slowed).

Denial of a problem!

“Denial by definition is a psychological defence system by which people protect themselves from things that threaten them or make them feel uncomfortable. People do this by refusing to acknowledge the awkward person, thing or event, or by attacking any allegation of the existence of such difficulties”.

I came across this detailed definition of “DENIAL” and some analysis into day to day life and work, I realize that almost all of us are more or less inflicted by “DENIAL”. Most of the people do not take “CRITICISM” in a normal manner. The first reaction to a single bit of “CRITICISM” is to go into a state of “DENIAL”. And as rightly said in the beginning, the reactions vary from refusing the allegations to attacking the critic in a variety of different manners. The former is the approach taken by most people wherein the “CRITICISM” has arrived from superiors or co-workers. The later approach of attacking the critic generally happens when the “CRITICISM” comes from a critic who is at a position lower then the person being criticized.
