“The greatest challenge to any thinker is stating the problem in a way that will allow a solution”

Lately lot of things happened…good and bad! But then I am a believer…what ever happens…it happens for good!

That’s the policy hence I never regretted in life whatever has happened as everything is for a reason and to teach us the aspect of life. Sometimes we learn it from outside with others experience and sometimes it’s within us with our own experience.

“Many of us crucify ourselves between two thieves - regret for the past and fear of the future.” ~ Fulton Oursler

But one thing I realized about people, that are when a person leaves an organization, place, town, city, state, country…people talk always about how bad they were and am not saying this is about every person but yes about few whom they always felt was a challenge for them to face. Some people don’t like others just because they feel there presence makes them feel how less intelligent or good or whatever they are! And at such time people tend to avoid just so that there inability doesn’t show up publicly!

“BACKBITE, v.t. To speak of a man as you find him when he can't find you.” ~ Ambrose Bierce

When a person leaves the world…every one talks only good about him/her….why?

My question is why not be just true! Yeah I feel sorry the person had to die in this manner but he/she has hurt me once and I never was friendly to that person…by saying so is there any harm?

I think people don’t have guts to talk about what they feel about people and I don’t blame them as it could be again many reasons – one the person doesn’t want any conflicts with people and two the person is scarred of the consequences etc!

We have quite a bunch of people at work who always make sure to make one or the other person’s life miserable! Don’t know why but they feel that’s the way one should work!

Gosh! Why people forget about professionalism in a professional place is a big question!

I used to think housewives are the one who gossip as they have time for it…but I realize one can start that at work also if they are not occupied with enough work!

"If you haven't got anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me." ~Alice Roosevelt Longworth

How to deal with such people, who like to solve there problems such as getting sign offs etc by taking them to lunch! Its like they will not hesitate to insult a person in a meeting in a big audience and later take them for lunch :D…am just waiting when is my turn as I lately got an offer for lunch and am wondering what they want out of me :D!

To be thankful so far didn’t get to work closely with them but am sure it will be fun if I do get as…it will be a matter of professionalism dealing with unprofessional: D

“Professionalism is knowing how to do it, when to do it, and doing it.” ~ Frank Tyger

What I have written above is all the multiple thoughts that are taking place in mind due to many things happening at work…! Yeah that’s what happens when I don’t blog every day :D…! But am glad am able to track cricket match lately…good win by India ;)

Thats really true and these days we are just confused more than ever before and from that our indecisiveness comes. We now just want to show our good face to everyone and run away from any real responsibility...we should meet challenges as they are and not regret four our good actions!

Dawn, that was a nice quote from Fulton!

People tend to judge other when they can't even judge themselves for the fear of hurting their ego.

Business lunch is fine Dawm. Professional ethics sometimes overlaps with personal ethics. After call, we are humanbeings with nuances of varied feelings
