“Allow me to be straight-to-the-point; however I’ll clarify with 14 down-to-earth course of action. We are all living with the objective of being happy.” At times the path to happiness depends more on what you  don't  do. Happiness in your business life and your personal life is often a matter of subtraction, not addition. Reflect on, for instance, what happens when you   stop   doing the following little and snappy things: *Notice how headers are stressed in present active tense  J  “ ing ” --to indicate time of action is NOW! ...and this is it; 1. Blaming. People make mistakes. Friends piss us off. Employees don't meet your expectations. Vendors don't deliver on time... then your spouse leaves you 100 bob when you projected for a thousand! So you blame them for your problems. But you're also to blame. Maybe you didn't provide enough training. Perhaps the timing too is not appropriate. Maybe you didn't build in enough of a...

The dangers of driving while imbibed or texting (Must Read!) Do Not Drink and Drive I went to the party and remembered what you said. You asked me not to drink alcohol, so I drank a Sprite instead. I felt proud of myself, as you said I should feel. You said I should not drink and drive, contrary to what some friends told m e. I made a healthy choice and your advice was correct, as it always is. When the party finally ended, people began to drive without being able to do so properly. I went to my car with the certainty that I would return home in peace. I never imagined what awaited me, Mom. Now I'm lying in the street and I hear the policeman say: "The kid that caused this accident was drunk". Mom, his voice seems so distant. My blood is spilled everywhere and I'm trying with all my might not to moan. I can hear the doctors say, "This girl is going to die". I have the certainty that the young man, who ran at full speed, decided ...

"My dear girl, the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all,  try to understand what I’m going through. If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don’ t interrupt to say: “You said the same thing a minute ago”... Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and I would read the same story night after night until you would fall asleep. When I don’t want to take a bath, don’t be mad and don’t embarrass me. Remember when I had to run after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl? When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn and don’t look at me that way... remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately, getting dressed, combing your hair and dealing with life’s issues every day of every month... the day you see I’m getting old, I ask you to please be patient,...

Whatever it is, just be right! WHAT IS YOUR DEDICATION TO THE MOTHERLAND AS A CITIZEN? "Before you hit 50 or you are past fifty, do something at least remarkable enough for your motherland to discover, even if it’s only planting a tree so that you give it life while leaving it something behind when it’s time for the nation to say its farewell to you. As for now, I don’t think we need excellent or super-patriots. We just need patriotism, honestly practiced by all of us, and we don’t need these people that are more patriotic than others or anybody else." I keep wondering what is all this whining about with some people. If you’re coughing, and you don’t have a strategic plan, your Christmas windfall seems not to be forthcoming then all of a sudden your box Television was about to be switched off: - So, you can’t eat your cake? Let it dawn on you, you’re fundamentally KENYAN! STOP wimping @ us. We are in every respect celebrating OUR country, its peo...
