Coping With The Times...

Life does not always go as planned, no matter how proactive one
may be. This is why every person on earth is afraid, if not,
worried
of something.

Have you heard of the six basic fears that could ruin man's quest
for success and happiness?

The fear of poverty, death, ill-health, loss of love, old age and the
fear of criticism?

Are you aware of which one you have, if not one of the six then
maybe something else? Well, for one to be able to live his life
to
the fullest, he should know how to conquer his fear.

Yes, the world has gone through a lot... good times and bad
times.
But notice? Everything eventually fades, so why worry?

We are all in here together. Each one of us had nothing to do
with
his own coming and certainly, only little if ever, with his own
going.
But does this mean that we could be idle, just have fun
and wait
for our death??

Of course not.

As a Leader, one is supposed to lead the way, to show how life
and
most everything else should be handled, to be the example.
Life is
short yet enough for us to make it meaningful.

See, a Leader is never content, otherwise, everything would
decay
sooner than expected. Imagine if we stop innovating on
products
or whatever, what would happen? Things would seem
slower.
Life would get dull. Yet, is life all about materialism and
things like that? No. We don't live in an aquarium. Hence, for
the sake of the generations to
come, we must try to do business
with social responsibility.


Preserve the greens.
Put a check on morality.
Provide for everyone.


"You're not going to transform society until you transform
business.
But you're not going to transform business by
pretending it's not
a business." - Lawrence Perlman

Indeed, the world has evolved into a more comfortable though
faster
pace of life through business. And for many, change has
not only
brought excitement but fear and more competition.

Look with all the advancement coming around us, have we ran
out
of problems? Of diseases? Of issues? Instead, something
always seem to crop up just before things could be solved, right?

Should we just give up? Definitely not. Giving up is like suicide.
Bear in mind that our business in this world is to succeed and
be fulfilled. "A winner never quits, and a quitter never wins!"

How then do you cope with change?

Conquer time by conquering yourself.
Uphold values. And get better.


"If your hands can not be employed usefully,
attend to the culture of your mind." - James A. Garfield

Take note, no matter how successful a person already is,
because
people need people, he understands that being
altruistic is the key
to coping with the times... to conquering fear,
worry or the unknown.


Thus, build and value relationships.
Be helpful... what goes around, comes around.

Remember…
“I want a revolution, and I want it to start in Crotonville." - Jack Welch
