ARTArticleLaughter for Stress ReliefSummer is here, our days are packed full and we often become stressed. We sometimes have so much going on we think there's no time to laugh and have fun. Wrong! There is good news! Smiling and laughter are really good for your health! And the more you do them the better! From biblical ...ARTArticleLeaders Are Proactive, Not ReactiveHave you ever been in a situation where you saw a leader take a specific action, yet you had no idea "why" or "how" the leader decided to take that specific action? Well, I have too! That's why I decided to study various leaders that I have worked with over 22 years and before long, I started to get insights into why leaders do what they do. More importantly, I started to understand that what a leader does is much deeper than the specific action he takes.ARTArticleLeaders Go Above and Beyond - Go the Extra Mile!Have you ever been in a situation where you saw a leader take a specific action, yet you had no idea "why" or "how" the leader decided to take that specific action? Well, I have too! That's why I decided to study various leaders that I have worked with over 22 years and before long, I started to get insights into why leaders do what they do.

It begins at this level before you can collaborate with other people. Gone are the days when people were willing to be dominated and controlled. I’m not saying that fear can no longer be used to manipulate people. What I am saying is it doesn’t have the stronghold it once did, in that people are now looking for engagement. They want inspiration and meaning; they want a reason to get out of bed in the morning.ARTArticleLeadership: Inspiring Others is Only the First StepOur leadership “true potential” is not realized simply by inspiring others or feeling inspired or just having more information. Knowledge is not really power until it is applied. Recognition or an “aha” are only nice, interesting tidbits until you muster up the courage to make the change. Courage is a funny thing; it does not mean the absence of fear. It is primarily an intention to feel fear, but to go ahead and proceed anyway. Understanding the source of FEAR—mostly Fictitious Evidence Affecting Reality in our brain—can help to alleviate it.ARTArticleLeading Change: Emotion Can Make or Break the Best Laid LogicLeading change can be tricky because not only does it take courage to innovate, it takes courage to breach subjects that make “stuck” cultures… well, stuck! There has been a tacit agreement in business culture to avoid addressing emotion/feelings at all costs. Yet, it is this very issue that creates dysfunctional teams that lead to financial waste and lack of employee engagement. It is also not good for change and innovation. Why? Until we address what creates “fear of change”—perceptions about feelings and emotion—we have essentially hit the proverbial brick wall.ARTArticleLearn From Your MistakeA mistake, no matter how large or how small, is still a mistake. It doesn’t matter if it happened on a personal or a professional level; you have to learn how to recoup from it. If you are a perfectionist, this is a bitter lesson to learn, you are human. Some people mentally beat themselves up, and have a problem getting past the mistake they made. Sometimes we are harder on ourselves than an utter stranger would be. Here are some tips for rebounding from what you might feel as the worst mistake ever:ARTArticleLearn How the Mind and Body Works with the Five Psychological Phases of FitnessWhether you are a military special operations soldier, an athlete, or just a regular person seeking to lose weight, all groups experience similar personal obstacles.

LOVE IS WHERE YOUR HEART IS This is certainly true of Adeline Yeo who decided that to follow her true love she would paint from the heart – the core of our loving nature and of love. Adeline follows her true love and puts to work love in action. LOVE AND SKILL CREATE MASTERPIECES John Ruskin said – when love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece. JOU EY TO LOVEr ARTArticleLeave It AloneFirst thing in the morning a couple of days ago, I took my laptop (still very new and shiny) in Starbucks to do a little writing.

What ...ARTArticleLessons From PiratesA good deal of my time and effort is devoted to thinking about leadership and teams.

Unlike the odd bunch you find on Facebook usually there to have fun and interact with their friends, LinkedIn is a business-oriented social network people join in order to make business connections and find new opportunities in their fields of endeavor. LinkedIn: One of the best small business resources to discover new business opportunitiesr ARTArticleLife Is a StairwayI often wonder what sentence or phrase would best describe life. This to me sums it up; life is like a stairway. Only YOU can determine where your stairway will lead. Some days you can climb to the top, some days you can only climb a couple of stairs, while other days you don’t climb any at all. Each stair represents family, friends, career and situations. Each stair also represents beautiful places that you visited. Each stair is about the sharing and gratitude that go along with life. It’s about the rainbows in life; the smiles, the laughter and the tears.ARTArticleLight Their FiresLIGHT THEIR FIRESnby William Cottringe nn Knowing how to motivate employees is an important part of any supervisor’s toolbox.

While this is definitely a part of your legacy, it is not the entire picture. A legacy will also include what you impart to the future generation, including things like your ideas, philosophy, your accomplishments, and also your money.ARTArticleLiving your BEST life!Planning to live your BEST life!

Sometimes people look at what others are doing in their profession and consider changing their own, they might look at a different trade, or they might go to school to further their education. People look at their options for success. A lot of times people look at what others are doing to try to imitate it thinking they can become successful as well.ARTArticleLots of Choices Don’t Always Make Us HappierWe’ve all heard the phrase “less is more” (in fact I’ve written about this concept previously), but how many of us actually practice that philosophy? It sure seems as though the world (or at least the United States) is going in the opposite direction – we’ve got supersized grocery stores with dozens of choices for each food category; enormous home-improvement stores with aisle after aisle of products; hundreds of television stations from which to choose; the list goes on and on. But do all these choices improve our quality of life?ARTArticleLove and hurt go hand in hand but that should not stop us loving. Two ways to approach loveYou can’t love without getting hurt! There is no doubt that when a relationship comes to an end, the one who did not want the relationship to end will feel hurt. Even during a relationship when we experience disappointment we may also feel hurt. At these times we should think how we can be more trusting, caring, loving and forgiving. Here are two examples of love and how to approach love. Khadijah, the first wife of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)r ARTArticleLove Story – Experience of loveMARVELOUS MYSTERY OF LOVE For a long time I have been dwelled in understanding this mystery. FAHM O SHAOOR Really love is beyond all the so-called fahm o shaoor. Fahm o shaoor means the realizing of wiseness in Urdu.
