Are you still amazed?

BUSINESS MATTERS (BEYOND THE BOTTOM LINE) By Francis J. Kong
Is your company starving for innovation and creativity?

Are you wondering why you have lost your power of dreaming and imagining?

Maybe it’s time for you to be childlike. Now I did not say childish as many people today still are. But what I mean is being childlike.

Look at how children view God.
Are children amazed with the existence of God? You bet they are. In fact they are the world’s most honest theologians. Look at the words they write when their teacher asked them to write a letter to God:

Dear GOD,
In school they told us what You do. Who does it when You are on vacation? -Jane

Dear GOD,
Are you really invisible or is that just a trick? -Lucy

Dear GOD,
Did you mean for the giraffe to look like that or was it an accident? -Norma

Dear GOD,
Instead of letting people die and having to make new ones, why don’t You just keep the ones You have now? -Jane

Dear GOD,
I went to this wedding and they kissed right in church. Is that okay? -Neil

Dear GOD,
Did you really mean “do unto others as they do unto you”?
Because if you did, then I’m going to fix my brother! -Darla

Dear GOD,
Thank you for the baby brother, but what I prayed for was a puppy. -Joyce

Dear GOD,
It rained for our whole vacation and is my father mad! He said some things about You that people are not supposed to say, but I hope You will not hurt him anyway.
Your friend (But I am not going to tell you who I am)

Dear GOD,
I bet it is very hard for You to love all of everybody in the whole world. There are only 4 people in our family and I can never do it. -Nan

Dear GOD,
We read Thomas Edison made light. But in school they said You did it. So I bet he stole your idea. Sincerely, Donna

Kids are always amazed and maybe that is the reason why they are happy most of the time.

Cultivate Your Childlike Thinking is the title of an article written by Lisa Jimenez and it is so beautiful I want to share this with you.
Psychologists say 68 percent of people miss out on opportunity simply because they are not awake to it. Did you read that clearly? They are not awake. Most people are in a coma of routine, habit, and schedule. They almost have to be. We over stimulate our calendar with so many tasks and errands that it becomes necessary to be in a robotic state of “doing” to ensure everything on the to-do list will get accomplished. And now, the harassed style of thinking and living has become a habit – a way of life. You can break through this negative behavior of living by making a conscious effort to become more childlike – not childish – but, childlike. Find amazement with things again!

Did you know that NASA cannot duplicate the flight pattern of a dragon fly?

Did you know that a butterfly’s life span is two days – and that they are never babies? They go right from the cocoon to an adult butterfly?

Did you know the more pollution in the air the more brilliant and bold the sunsets?

Did you know that baby zebras recognize their mommies by the positioning of their stripes – and the stripe patterns are never duplicated!

Isn’t it amazing that alligators lay their eggs at different levels in the ground. And this action determines the gender of the newborn alligator?

Isn’t it amazing that it is impossible to be mad and laugh at the same time?

Isn’t it amazing that you can cause a grown man or woman with a tough exterior to melt like butter when you say, “I love you.”

Isn’t it amazing that young children who just meet each other can play like they are lifelong friends within a few seconds?

These facts may seem insignificant. However, the habit of thinking on such things can do amazing things for you. It can cause you to wake up and notice the abundance of wisdom, love, and miracles that are found in every day life! Just imagine what your life would look like if you called on your natural risk-taking ability. Imagine what your business would look like if you cultivated your childlike thinking. Imagine what your relationships would look like if you were willing to really love! This should be your wakeup call to the amazement of life. It just might cause you to be aware of the abundant opportunity waiting for you in your business and in life! The most creative and innovative people in the work place are those who are amazed with the wonder around them.
Be like a little child and maintain that sense of wonder.
Even the genius Albert Einstein says “There is a Master Designer behind the universe.”
And I bet you he is right.

The Charlie Schulz Philosophy

The Charlie Schulz Philosophy

The following is the philosophy of Charles Schulz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip.

You don't have to actually answer the questions.

Just read the e-mail straight through, and you'll get the point.

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.

2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.

3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America pageant.

4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.

5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.

6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.




How did you do?

The point is , none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.

These are no second-rate achievers.

They are the best in their fields.

But the applause dies..

Awards tarnish.

Achievements are forgotten.

Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.



Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.

2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.

3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.!

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.



Easier?
The lesson:

The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials..

the most money...

or the most awards.

They are simply the ones that care the most.

Perhaps I need you...

A complete different day (re-post)

Seated all night facing this seventeen-inch square glass bordered by black thick fiberglass, tweaking its controls to make its display not to hurt your eyes. Seated comfortably in any position your body desire, doing the chores which you've been trained for by this mammoth enterprise.

One night, news came that cheese has been moved and will keep on moving. There are changes in the organization. Changes is inevitable… This is one of the things we should stick into our minds that no matter how big or successful you are right now, a twist along the way can make everything different.

Days swiftly gone by, oblivion to the fact that one day that this giant can also run into obstacles. Things I should have accomplished during those early years flashed before me. Why did I let those opportunities passed by?! It's like I'm out there in an open field, field full of great surprises and opportunities. Stages that can bring the best out of you and be proud of what you might have become, but now a grayish to bold black clouds cover the whole field, uncertainty now dwell amongst us.

Do what you can today for that could be the last time you’ll be given chance to do it.

Tomorrow is a complete different day. A day, which could be of what we are not expecting it to be.

/Wala lang... BoRed!!!

Choosing between the two...

Choosing between having an ideal work with less pay over a stressful job but with a more substantial pay back! Where will you go? What will you choose?

Kol Center or ... ?

Some of us graduated way back with honors such as "summa" tutal or "magna" nakaw. A college degree holder in eng-eng, narsing, cummers, eduk and so and so... I myself was a graduate of BS in Computer Science major in Vulcanizing. Cool huh?! If you are a fresh (meat) grad and looking for a good pay check every "kada ken senas", san ka pah?! Even (s)experienced dads, moms, kuya and ate, pinsan and sometimes "lola or lolo" like me would dare to grab the opportunity to have more coins in our piggy bank. Ain't that right?! But wait! there's more! If you'll read further, you'll know in just a few. ::wink wink::

... Not all of us are into just pocketing huge amount of tweenties or fifties in our walley(t). Some of us Still prefer to have a normal life. D ba?! I salute you guys and gals! Keep the passion alive within you! Go for the gold! hehe... No, kidding aside... I do admire these people who would go for their passion, do what they love doing despite half of their paycheck will be cut in half. But hey! Don't you dare tell us, "iiihhh kakayimo friend... karagul mu sueldo?!!" Haha Belat!

Some of us are in the situation of choosing between working "still" in a kol Center or go what "seems" like we really want to do but negative thoughts would darken our vision making the dream a bit fuzzy. What if that vision turns out to be a crap?! But wait! (agen) What if it will prosper?! Turns out to be the right decision or choice, aight?

... that is where you'll Choose between the two... Hayyy, yoko nah! Enaf sed...

Can someone help me decide?

Colored Folks...

This was written by a black gentleman in Texas and it is quite funny. What a great sense of humor and creativity!!!
