πŸ‘ŒWorth reading...this fish story

The Japanese have always loved fresh fish🐠 🐟🐠🐟

But the water close to Japan has not held many fish🐠🐟 for decades. 

So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever. 

The further the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring the fish🐠🐟🐠🐟

If the return trip took more time, the fish 🐠🐟🐠🐟 were not fresh.

To solve this problem, fish 🐠🐟 companies installed freezers on their boats. 

They would catch the fish 🐠🐟 and freeze them at sea. 

Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer. 

However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen fish🐠🐟 and they did not like the taste of frozen fish 🐠🐟

The frozen fish🐠🐟 brought a lower price. 

So, fishing companies installed fish tanks. 

They would catch the fish 🐠🐟 and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. 

After a little thrashing around, they were tired, dull, and lost their fresh-fish taste. 

The fishing industry faced an impending crisis! 

But today, they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan. 

How did they manage...? 

To keep the fish🐠🐟🐠 tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish🐠🐟🐠 in the tanks but with a small sharkπŸ‹πŸ‹

The fish🐠🐟🐠are challenged and hence are constantly on the move. 

The challenge they face keeps them alive and fresh!

Have you realized that some of us are also living in a pond but most of the time tired and dull....? 

Basically in our lives, sharks πŸ‹πŸ‹ are new challenges to keep us active. 

If you are steadily conquering
challenges, you are happy. 

Your challenges keep you energized. 

Don't create Success and revel in it in a state of inertia.

You have the resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.  

Put a shark πŸ‹πŸ‹ in your tank

πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class.
 

*That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer*
 

The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on this plan : All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade !

 
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.


 The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.


As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.


The second test average was a D! 

No one was happy. 


When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F. 

As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.


To their great surprise, ALL FAILED and the professor told them that communism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed. 
 

*These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read and all applicable to this experiment :*

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation !

Sharing with you all a True Story which I came across.... Really touching please read it !!!!

WHEN A LIZARD CAN, WHY CAN'T WE?

This is a true story that happened in Japan. 

In order to renovate the house, someone in Japan breaks open the wall. 

Japanese houses normally have a hollow space between the wooden walls.

When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard stuck there because a nail from outside hammered into one of it's feet. 

He sees this, feels pity, and at the same time curious, as when he checked the nail, 
it was nailed 5 years ago when the house was first built !!!

What happened? 

The lizard has survived in such position for 5 years!!!!!!!!!! 

In a dark wall partition for 5 years without moving, it is impossible and mind-boggling.

Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 5 years! without moving a single step--since it's foot was nailed!

So he stopped his work and observed the lizard, what it has been doing, and what and how it has been eating. 

Later, not knowing from where it came, appears another lizard, with food in it's mouth.

Ah! He was stunned and touched deeply. 

For the lizard that was stuck by nail, another lizard has been feeding it for the past 5 years... 

Imagine? it has been doing that untiringly for 5 long years, without giving up hope on it's partner. 

Imagine what a small creature can do that a creature blessed with a brilliant mind can't. 

Please never abandon your loved ones

Never Say you're Busy When They Really Need You ...

A Moment of negligence might break the very heart which loved you against all odds..

Men be careful.......This is a very interesting story and a lesson for men.

(To men) Please take time to ponder. πŸ˜•

(To women) Just enjoy the story. πŸ˜‹

Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a neighbouring kingdom.

The monarch could have killed him but was moved by Arthur's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death.

The question was: 
*What do women really want?*

Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man. And to young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better than death, he accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by year's end.

He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: the princess, the priests, the wise men, and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer.

Many people advised him to consult the old witch, for only she would have the answer. But the price would be high as the witch was famous throughout the kingdom for the exorbitant prices she charged.

The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but first he would have to agree to her price.

The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, the most noble of the Knights of the Round Table, and Arthur's closest friend. Young Arthur was horrified.

She was hunch-backed and hideous, had only one tooth, smelled like sewage, made obscene noises, etc.

He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life. He refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden.

But Lancelot, having learnt of the proposal, spoke with Arthur. He said nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life. And the reservation of the Round Table. Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the witch answered.

Arthur's question thus: 
"What a woman really wants?"

She said, "A woman wants to be in charge of her own life."

Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great truth, and that Arthur's life would be spared. And so it was. The neighbouring monarch granted Arthur his freedom. And Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.

The honeymoon hour approached and, Lancelot, steeling himself for a horrific experience, entered the bedroom. But, what a sight awaited him.

The most beautiful woman he had ever seen was sitting by the bed.

The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened. The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she appeared as a witch, she would henceforth become her horrible and deformed self only half the time, and be the beautiful maiden the other half.

"Which would you prefer?" She asked him. "BEUATIFUL during the DAY... OR at NIGHT?"

Lancelot pondered the predicament.

During the day, he could have a beautiful woman to show off to his friends, but at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch!

OR,

would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day? But by night a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wondrous moments with?

(If you are a man reading this) What would YOUR choice be?

(If you are a woman reading this) What would YOUR MAN'S choice be?

And Lancelot's choice is given below...

BUT, please make YOUR choice first before you scroll down below!

OKAY?

Knowing the answer the witch gave to Arthur for his question, Sir Lancelot said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself.

Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time, because he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own life.

Now, what is the moral to this  

The moral is...

1. There is 'witch' in every woman, no matter how beautiful she is.

2. If you don't let a woman have her own way, things are going to get ugly.

So, be careful how you treat a woman and always remember: 
IT IS EITHER "HER WAY" 
OR IT IS "NO WAY"!!! πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜‰πŸ˜œπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜›πŸ˜πŸ˜œ

A guy asked a girl in a library, "Do you mind if I sit beside you?"

The girl answered with a  loud voice, 
"I DO NOT WANT TO SPEND THE NIGHT
WITH YOUUU!!!!!"

All of the students in library started staring at the guy. He was very embarrassed.......

After a couple of minutes, the girl walked quietly to the guy's table and told him, "I study psychology and I know what a man is thinking. 

Let me guess, you were embarrassed, huh?"

The guy responded with a loud voice,
"200 DOLLARS FOR ONE NIGHT?!?!?!
THAT'S TOO MUCH!!!"

…and all the people in the library looked at the girl in shock......

The guy leaned over and whispered, 
"I study Management, and I know how to screw people.........."

πŸƒStroke has a new indicator.
 

Blood Clots/Stroke - They Now Have a Fourth Indicator, the Tongue

πŸƒI will continue to forward this every time it comes around!

STROKE: Remember the 1st Three Letters....
πŸƒ S. T. R. πŸƒ
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:

πŸƒSenario :- During a BBQ, a woman stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) ...she said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.

They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Jane went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening.

πŸƒJane's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00 PMJane passed away) 
She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. 
Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Jane would be with us today. Some don't die. 
They end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.

 πŸƒIt only takes a minute to read this.

πŸƒA neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. 
He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough. 

πŸƒRECOGNIZING A STROKE

Thank God for the sense to remember the '3' steps, STR. Read and
Learn!

πŸƒSometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. 
Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.

Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:

✅S *Ask the individual to SMILE.

✅T *Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A
SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)
(i.e. Chicken Soup)

✅R *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.

πŸƒIf he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call emergency number immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

 πŸƒNew Sign of a Stroke ---

✅Stick out Your Tongue!

NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out his tongue. If the tongue is
'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke.

✅A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.

Brilliant article, just couldn't resist sharing..

*Ducks Quack, Eagles Soar*

I was waiting in line for a ride at the airport in Dubai. When a cab pulled up, the first thing I noticed was that the taxi was polished to a bright shine. Smartly dressed in a white shirt, black tie, and freshly pressed black slacks, the cab driver jumped out and rounded the car to open the back passenger door for me.

He handed me a laminated card and said: 'I'm Abdul, your driver. While I'm loading your bags in the trunk I'd like you to read my mission statement.'

Taken aback, I read the card. It said: Abdul's Mission Statement:
To get my customers to their destination in the quickest, safest and cheapest way possible in a friendly environment.

This blew me away. Especially when I noticed that the inside of the cab matched the outside. Spotlessly clean!

As he slid behind the wheel, Abdul said, 'Would you like a cup of coffee? I have a thermos of regular and one of decaf.'

I said jokingly, 'No, I'd prefer a soft drink.'

Abdul smiled and said, 'No problem. I have a cooler up front with regular and Diet Coke, lassi, water and orange juice.'

Almost stuttering, I said, 'I'll take a Lassi.'

Handing me my drink, Abdul said, 'If you'd like something to read, I have The NST , Star and Sun Today.'

As they were pulling away, Abdul handed me another laminated card, 'These are the stations I get and the music they play, if you'd like to listen to the radio.'

And as if that weren't enough, Abdul told me that he had the air conditioning on and asked if the temperature was comfortable for me.

Then he advised me of the best route to my destination for that time of day. He also let me know that he'd be happy to chat and tell me about some of the sights or, if I preferred, to leave me with my own thoughts.

'Tell me, Abdul ,' I was amazed and asked him, 'have you always served customers like this?'

Abdul smiled into the rear view mirror. "No, not always. In fact, it's only been in the last two years. My first five years driving, I spent most of my time complaining like all the rest of the cabbies do. Then I heard about POWER OF CHOICE one day."

Power of choice is that you can be a duck or an eagle.

'If you get up in the morning expecting to have a bad day, you'll rarely disappoint yourself. Stop complaining!'

'Don't be a duck. Be an eagle. Ducks quack and complain. Eagles soar above the crowd.'

'That hit me. really hard' said Abdul.

'It is about me. I was always quacking and complaining, so I decided to change my attitude and become an eagle. I looked around at the other cabs and their drivers. The cabs were dirty, the drivers were unfriendly, and the customers were unhappy. So I decided to make some changes, slowly ... a few at a time. When my customers responded well, I did more.'

'I take it that it has paid off for you,' I said.

'It sure has,' Abdul replied. 'My first year as an eagle, I doubled my income from the previous year. This year I'll probably quadruple it. My customers call me for appointments on my cell phone or leave a message on it.'

Abdul made a different choice. He decided to stop quacking like a duck and start soaring like an eagle.

Start becoming an eagle today ... one small step every week..next week... And next...And....

A great Thought..

"You don't die if you fall in water, you die only if you don't swim.

Thats the Real Meaning of Life.

Improve yourself and your skills in a different way.
Be an eagle. .not a Duck.

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY ('TRY', BEING THE KEY WORD) TO ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY .. 

Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins: 

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body.. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size. 

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a 
person's lifetime. 

3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer 
cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors. 

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has
nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic,
but also to environmental, food and lifestyle factors. 

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet to eat more adequately and healthy, 4-5 times/day and by including supplements will strengthen the immune system. 

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing
cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract etc., and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc. 
7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs. 

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size.
However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction. 

9.. When the body has too much toxic burden from
chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either
compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications. 

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer
cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply. 

*CANCER CELLS FEED ON: 

a. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc. are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses, but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in color Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt. 

b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus.. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk cancer cells are being starved. 

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer. 

d.. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole
grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into
an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at
temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).. 

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high
caffeine Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer
fighting properties. Water-best to drink purified water, or
filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap
water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it. 

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of
digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines becomes putrefied and leads to more toxic buildup. 

13.. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By
refraining from meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the
body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells. 

14. Some supplements build up the immune system
(IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals,
EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells.. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells. 

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit.

A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior
be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated
environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to
get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

Fired from job

A man goes home to his wife, after being fired from his job at a chips factory

The wife acts surprised, because the man has been employee of the month for 13 months in a row.

She asks "What happened?"

"I got fired for putting my penis in the potato cutter. It's been a dream of mine, and I couldn't resist it anymore", the man replied.

The wife, even more surprised after hearing what happened, asked if everything is okay with his penis.

"Yes everything is fine with the penis", he replied.

"What about the potato cutter?", she asked.

A bit ashamed, he replied "she got fired as well"

Raise

*The Day the Penis asked for a Raise*

I, the Penis, hereby request a raise in salary for the following reasons: 

I do physical labor.

I work at great depths. 

I plunge headfirst into everything I do.

I do not get weekends or public holidays off , but sometimes more work to do in weekend .

I work in a damp environment.

I work in a dark workplace that has poor ventilation. 

I work in high temperatures.

My work exposes me to contagious diseases. 

Sincerely,
*P. Enis*

πŸ‘„πŸ‘„πŸ‘„πŸ‘„πŸ‘„πŸ‘„

*The Response*πŸ‘‡

Dear Mr.Penis:

After assessing your request, and considering the arguments you have raised, the administration rejects your request for the following reasons: 

You do not work 8 hours straight.

You fall asleep after brief work periods.

You do not always follow the orders of the management team. You do not stay in your designated area and are often seen visiting other locations. 

You do not take initiative - you need to be pressured and stimulated in order to start working.

You leave the workplace rather messy at the end of your shift.

You don't always observe necessary safety regulations, such as wearing the Correct protective clothing.

You will retire well before you are 65.

You are unable to work double shifts.

You sometimes leave your designated work area before you have completed the assigned task.. 

And if that were not all, you have been seen constantly entering and exiting the workplace carrying two suspicious-looking bags.

Sincerely,

*V.  A. Gina*

A Lady Lawyer decided to give herself a big treat for her birthday by staying overnight in one of London's most expensive hotels.
When she checked out next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for £250.00.
She exploded and demanded to know why the charge was so high.
" It's a nice hotel but the rooms certainly are...n't Worth £250.00 for just an overnight stop without even breakfast......"
The clerk told her that £250.00 is the '' Standard Rate ''
So she insisted on speaking to the Manager. The Manager appeared and forewarned by the desk clerk, Announced :
 " The hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference centre which are available for use."

'' But I didn't Use them," she said.

'' Well, they are here, and you could have," explained the Manager. He went on to explain that she could also have seen one of the In-hotel shows for which the hotel is famous. " We have the best entertainers from Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen performing here," the Manager said.

" But I didn't go to any of those shows," she said.

 " Well, we have them, and you could have," the Manager replied.
No matter what Amenity the Manager mentioned, she replied :
*_'' But I didn't Use It.....!!! "_*

The Manager was unmoved, so she decided to pay, wrote a check and gave it to the Manager.
The Manager was surprised when he looked at the check.
*_'' But Madam, this check is only made out for £50.00......"_*

 _'' That's Correct. I Charged you £200.00 For Sleeping With Me......" she replied....!!! ''_

 *_'' But I Didn't...!!!! ''_* Exclaims the very surprised Manager.

*_'' Well, Too Bad, I was here, and you could have."=))...._*

Corporate job



A woman in hot air balloon realized she is lost...

*She reduced altitude & shouted to a man  below :-* 
_"Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend to meet him an hour ago but I don't know where I am."_

*Man below replied :-* 
_"You are in hot air balloon 30 feet above the ground. You are at 41 degree North latitude & 59 degree West longitude."_

*Lady :-* _"You must be an engineer."_

*Man :-* _"How do you know?"_

*Lady :-* _"Everything you told me is technically correct but useless & the fact is I'm still lost."_

*Engineer :-* _"You must be in Top Management."_

*Lady :-* _"Ya. How do you know?"_

*Engineer :-* _"You don't know where you are or where you're going, you have no technical knowledge._ 
_You made a promise, which you've no idea how to keep & you expect people beneath you to solve your problems

The Glasgow Brothel

.

The madam opened the brothel door in Glasgow and saw a rather dignified, well-dressed,  good-looking man in his late forties.

"May I help you sir?" she asked.

"I want to see Valerie," the man replied.

"Sir, Valerie is one of our most expensive ladies. Perhaps you would prefer someone else", said the madam.

 "No, I must see Valerie," he replied.
Just then, Valerie appeared and announced to the man she charged £5000 a visit.

Without hesitation, the man pulled out five thousand pounds and gave it to Valerie, and they went upstairs. After an hour, the man calmly left.

The next night, the man appeared again, once more demanding to see Valerie. Valerie explained that no one had ever come back two nights in a row, as she was so expensive.
There were no discounts. The price was still £5000. Again, the man pulled out the money, gave it to Valerie, and they went upstairs. After an hour, he left.

The following night the man was there yet again. Everyone was astounded that he had come for a third consecutive night, but he paid Valerie and they went upstairs.

After their session, the man asked Valerie to sign a receipt that she had received £15000. She was astonished nevertheless signed on the receipt and said to the man, "No one has ever been with me three nights in a row and for sure this is the first time anyone has asked me to sign a receipt. Where are you from?"

The man replied, "Edinburgh."

"Really", she said. "I have family in Edinburgh ."

"I know." the man said.
"Your sister died, and I'm her solicitor. I was instructed to deliver you £15,000 inheritance in person."

Two things in life are certain:
 1. Death
 2. Being screwed by a lawyer.

Truly inspiring



In life I have forgotten how many times I have fallen. 
How many times I have hurt myself. 
The entire world laughed at me.
But I never gave up. 
I have always picked myself up, dusted myself and walked upto the waiter and said,

How to Be Perfect



Everything is perfect, dear friend.
-Kerouac                                            

Get some sleep.

Don't give advice.

Take care of your teeth and gums.

Don't be afraid of anything beyond your control. Don't be afraid, for
instance, that the building will collapse as you sleep, or that someone
you love will suddenly drop dead.

Eat an orange every morning.

Be friendly. It will help make you happy.

Raise your pulse rate to 120 beats per minute for 20 straight minutes
four or five times a week doing anything you enjoy.

Hope for everything. Expect nothing.

Take care of things close to home first. Straighten up your room
before you save the world. Then save the world.

Know that the desire to be perfect is probably the veiled expression
of another desire—to be loved, perhaps, or not to die.

Make eye contact with a tree.

Be skeptical about all opinions, but try to see some value in each of
them.

Dress in a way that pleases both you and those around you.

Do not speak quickly.

Learn something every day. (Dzien dobre!)

Be nice to people before they have a chance to behave badly.

Don't stay angry about anything for more than a week, but don't
forget what made you angry. Hold your anger out at arm's length
and look at it, as if it were a glass ball. Then add it to your glass ball
collection.

Be loyal.

Wear comfortable shoes.

Design your activities so that they show a pleasing balance
and variety.

Be kind to old people, even when they are obnoxious. When you
become old, be kind to young people. Do not throw your cane at
them when they call you Grandpa. They are your grandchildren!

Live with an animal.

Do not spend too much time with large groups of people.

If you need help, ask for it.

Cultivate good posture until it becomes natural.

If someone murders your child, get a shotgun and blow his head off.

Plan your day so you never have to rush.

Show your appreciation to people who do things for you, even if you
have paid them, even if they do favors you don't want.

Do not waste money you could be giving to those who need it.

Expect society to be defective. Then weep when you find that it is far
more defective than you imagined.

When you borrow something, return it in an even better condition.

As much as possible, use wooden objects instead of plastic or metal
ones.

Look at that bird over there.

After dinner, wash the dishes.

Calm down.

Visit foreign countries, except those whose inhabitants have
expressed a desire to kill you.

Don't expect your children to love you, so they can, if they want to.

Meditate on the spiritual. Then go a little further, if you feel like it.
What is out (in) there?

Sing, every once in a while.

Be on time, but if you are late do not give a detailed and lengthy
excuse.

Don't be too self-critical or too self-congratulatory.

Don't think that progress exists. It doesn't.

Walk upstairs.

Do not practice cannibalism.

Imagine what you would like to see happen, and then don't do
anything to make it impossible.

Take your phone off the hook at least twice a week.

Keep your windows clean.

Extirpate all traces of personal ambitiousness.

Don't use the word extirpate too often.

Forgive your country every once in a while. If that is not possible, go
to another one.

If you feel tired, rest.

Grow something.

Do not wander through train stations muttering, "We're all going to
die!"

Count among your true friends people of various stations of life.

Appreciate simple pleasures, such as the pleasure of chewing, the
pleasure of warm water running down your back, the pleasure of a
cool breeze, the pleasure of falling asleep.

Do not exclaim, "Isn't technology wonderful!"

Learn how to stretch your muscles. Stretch them every day.

Don't be depressed about growing older. It will make you feel even
older. Which is depressing.

Do one thing at a time.

If you burn your finger, put it in cold water immediately. If you bang
your finger with a hammer, hold your hand in the air for twenty
minutes. You will be surprised by the curative powers of coldness and
gravity.

Learn how to whistle at earsplitting volume.

Be calm in a crisis. The more critical the situation, the calmer you
should be.

Contemplate everything's opposite.

If you're struck with the fear that you've swum out too far in the
ocean, turn around and go back to the lifeboat.

Keep your childish self alive.

Answer letters promptly. Use attractive stamps, like the one with a
tornado on it.

Cry every once in a while, but only when alone. Then appreciate
how much better you feel. Don't be embarrassed about feeling better.

Do not inhale smoke.

Take a deep breath.

Do not smart off to a policeman.

Do not step off the curb until you can walk all the way across the
street. From the curb you can study the pedestrians who are trapped
in the middle of the crazed and roaring traffic.

Be good.

Walk down different streets.

Backwards.

Remember beauty, which exists, and truth, which does not. Notice
that the idea of truth is just as powerful as the idea of beauty.

Stay out of jail.

In later life, become a mystic.

Use Colgate toothpaste in the new Tartar Control formula.

Visit friends and acquaintances in the hospital. When you feel it is
time to leave, do so.

Be honest with yourself, diplomatic with others.

Do not go crazy a lot. It's a waste of time.

Read and reread great books.

Dig a hole with a shovel.

In winter, before you go to bed, humidify your bedroom.

Know that the only perfect things are a 300 game in bowling and a
27-batter, 27-out game in baseball.

Drink plenty of water. When asked what you would like to drink,
say, "Water, please."

Ask "Where is the loo?" but not "Where can I urinate?"

Be kind to physical objects.

Beginning at age forty, get a complete "physical" every few years
from a doctor you trust and feel comfortable with.

Don't read the newspaper more than once a year.

Learn how to say "hello," "thank you," and "chopsticks"
in Mandarin.

Belch and fart, but quietly.

Be especially cordial to foreigners.

See shadow puppet plays and imagine that you are one of the
characters. Or all of them.

Take out the trash.

Love life.

Use exact change.

When there's shooting in the street, don't go near the window.

The First

The first to apologise is the bravest.
The first to forgive is the strongest.
The first to forget is the happiest.

Good Story

IT'S NOT WHAT YOU GATHER,
BUT WHAT YOU SCATTER
 
I was at the corner grocery store buying some early potatoes... I noticed a small boy, delicate of bone and feature, ragged but clean, hungrily apprising a basket of freshly picked green peas.
 
I paid for my potatoes but was also drawn to the 
display of fresh green peas. I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes. 
 
Pondering the peas, I couldn't help overhearing 
the conversation between Mr. Miller (the store owner) 
and the ragged boy next to me.
 
'Hello Barry, how are you today?'
 
'H'lo, Mr. Miller. Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas. 
They sure look good'
 
'They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?'
  
'Fine. Gittin' stronger alla' time.'  
'Good. Anything I can help you with?'  
'No, Sir. Jus' admirin' them peas.'  
'Would you like to take some home?' asked Mr. Miller.
 
'No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with.'
 
'Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?'
 
'All I got's my prize marble here.' 
 
'Is that right? Let me see it', said Miller.
 
'Here 'tis. She's a dandy.'
 
'I can see that. Hmm mmm, only thing is this one is 
blue and I sort of go for red. Do you have a red one 
like this at home?' the store owner asked.
 
'Not zackley but almost.'
 
'Tell you what. Take this sack of peas home with you 
and next trip this way let me look at that red marble'. 
Mr. Miller told the boy.
 
'Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller.'
 
Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, 
came over to help me.
 
With a smile she said, 'There are two other boys 
like him in our community, all three are in very poor 
circumstances. Jim just loves to bargain with them
 for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever. 
 
When they come back with their red marbles, and they 
always do, he decides he doesn't like red after all and 
he sends them home with a bag of produce for a green 
marble or an orange one, when they come on their 
next trip to the store.'
 
I left the store smiling to myself, impressed with this man. 
A short time later I moved to Texas , but I never forgot 
the story of this man, the boys, and their bartering for marbles.
 
Several years went by, each more rapid than the previous one.  
Just recently I had occasion to visit some old friends in that Nebraska community and while I was there learned that Mr. Miller had died. They were having his visitation that evening and knowing my friends wanted to go, I agreed to accompany them. Upon arrival at the mortuary 
we fell into line to meet the relatives of the deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could.
 
Ahead of us in line were three young men. One was in 
an army uniform and the other two wore nice haircuts, 
dark suits and white shirts...all very professional looking. 
They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and 
smiling by her husband's casket.
 
Each of the young men hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke briefly with her and moved on to the casket. 
Her misty light blue eyes followed them as, one by one; 
each young man stopped briefly and placed his own 
warm hand over the cold pale hand in the casket. 
Each left the mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes.
 
Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller. I told her who I was 
and reminded her of the story from those many years ago and what she had told me about her husband's bartering for marbles. With her eyes glistening, she took my hand and led me to the casket.
 
'Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about.
 
They just told me how they appreciated the things Jim 
'traded' them. Now, at last, when Jim could not change 
his mind about color or size....they came to pay their debt.' 
 
'We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world,' 
she confided, 'but right now, Jim would consider himself 
the richest man in Nebraska ...'
 
With loving gentleness she lifted the lifeless fingers of 
her deceased husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles.
 
The Moral: 
We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind 
deeds. Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but 
by the moments that take our breath.

Today I wish you a day of ordinary miracles ~ 
A fresh pot of coffee you didn't make yourself...
 
An unexpected phone call from an old friend.... 
Green stoplights on your way to work....
 
The fastest line at the grocery store....
 
A good sing-along song on the radio..
 
Your keys found right where you left them.
 
 
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU GATHER, 
BUT WHAT YOU SCATTER THAT 
TELLS WHAT KIND OF LIFE YOU HAVE LIVED

Success is Personal

Cat Joke

This is classic!!!

A woman brought a very limp duck in to a veterinary surgeon.
As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope
and listened to the duck's chest.

After a moment or two, the vet shook his head
sadly and said, "I'm sorry, your duck Cuddles, has passed away."

The distressed woman wailed, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am sure. The duck is dead," replied the Vet.

"How can you be so sure?" she protested.
"I mean you haven't done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma or something."

The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left
the room.

He returned a few minutes later with a Labrador.

As the duck's owner looked on in amazement,
the dog stood on his hind legs, put his front paws on the examination table and sniffed the duck from top to bottom. He then looked up at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head.

The vet patted the dog on the head and took it
out of the room.

A few minutes later he returned with a cat.
The cat jumped on the table and also delicately sniffed the bird from head to foot. The cat sat back on its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly and strolled out of the room.

The vet looked at the woman and said, "I'm sorry, but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck."

The Vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys and produced a bill, which he handed to the woman.

The duck's owner, still in shock, took the bill. "Rs. 3000!" she cried, "Rs. 3000 just to tell me my duck is dead!"

The vet shrugged, "I'm sorry. If you had just taken my word for it, the bill would have been Rs.100, but with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it's now Rs 3000."

12 Things Lee Kuan Yew Taught Me About the World https://www.farnamstreetblog.com/2016/05/lee-kuan-yew/
Many years ago, a newlywed young man was sitting on a couch on a hot, humid day, sipping frozen juice during a visit to his father.
As he talked about adult life, marriage, responsibilities, and obligations, the father thoughtfully stirred the ice cubes in his glass and cast a clear, sober look on his son.

"Never forget your friends," he advised, "they will become more important as you get older."

"Regardless of how much you love your family and the children you happen to have, you will always need friends. Remember to go out with them occasionally, do activities with them, call them ..."

"What strange advice!" Thought the young man. "I just entered the married world, I am an adult and surely my wife and the family that we will start will be everything I need to make sense of my life."

Yet he obeyed his father; Kept in touch with his friends and annually increased their number. Over the years, he became aware that his father knew what he was talking about.

Inasmuch as time and nature carry out their designs and mysteries on a man, friends were the bulwarks of his life.

After 50 years of life, here is what he learned:

Time passes.
Life goes on.
The distance separates.
Children grow up.
Children cease to be children and become independent. And to the parents it breaks the heart but the children are separated of the parents.
Jobs come and go.
Illusions, desires, attraction, sex ... weaken.
People do not do what they should do.
The heart breaks.
The parents die.
Colleagues forget the favors.
The races are over.
But, true friends are always there, no matter how long or how many miles they are.

A friend is never more distant than the reach of a need, barring you, intervening in your favor, waiting for you with open arms or blessing your life.

When we started this adventure called LIFE, we did not know of the incredible joys or sorrows that were ahead. We did not know how much we would need from each other. Love your parents, take care of your children, but keep a group of good friends. Dialogue with them but do not impose your views.

Mr. Allen Swift: Born - 1908 - Died 2010

This man owned & drove the same car for 82 YEARS.
Can you imagine even having the same car for 82 years?
Mr. Allen Swift ( Springfield , Massachusetts ) received this 1928 Rolls-Royce Piccadilly-P1 Roadster from his father, brand new - as a graduation gift in 1928. He drove it up until his death ... At the age of 102!!! He was the oldest living owner of a car that was purchased new.
Just thought you'd like to see it.
It was donated to a Springfield museum after his death. It has 1,070,000 miles on it, still runs like a Swiss watch, dead silent at any speed and is in perfect cosmetic condition. 82 years - That's approximately 13,048 miles per year (1087 per month)...1,070,000 miles ( 1,712,000 kilometers!!

That's British engineering of a bygone era. I don't think they make them like this anymore!
The 26 letters of the English alphabet  are so intelligently arranged.

"Ah so you learned to drive in a Ferrari" that's what a new colleague said to me when I explained that I had joined Google straight after university.  This sentence echoed in my head, when in the months after that conversation; I got an offer to leave Google.  Deciding to leave Google was hard, really hard but I'm really glad I did. Here's what I learned when I handed back the keys to the Ferrari.

Lesson 1: Great Isn't Always Enough

Google is constantly named the best company to work for. And I think Google deserves those awards. Let's be clear: I said goodbye to something I loved, not something I hated. And it was mutual. Google looked after me. They always gave me a strong package: a super competitive salary, every perk you could name and even a swimming pool! I also left behind a super-talented team: we were set up to succeed and we looked out for one another. In other words I walked away from a great job.

A great job wasn't enough to make me happy. My work life balance sucked.  No matter how hard you try if you work in Ireland for a California based company you cannot avoid some late nights and some travel, in my case many late nights and much travel. I became a bad friend and partner. I never made 7pm spin or mid-week drinks. I spent many Sundays on the plane to San Francisco and when I come back at 11am the next Saturday I would be tired and cranky. Over time, these patterns really began to negatively impact my life. I was in San Francisco last year when my grandfather had a huge stroke. My manager was amazing, he did everything he could to help me but at that moment in my life I felt more powerless than I have ever done. I was too far away from my family at a moment when I needed to be close to them.

Ironically, a fantastic Google based training called 'Search Inside Yourself' (now a book and separate organization) helped me realise that my work and what makes me happy in life were mismatched.  It gave me the mindfulness to see that what made me happy was an awful lot more than job satisfaction. My job was great, but it wasn't enough.

Lesson 2: The Right Role Can Be In The Most Unexpected Of Companies

If you told me a year ago, that I would be working for a bank, I would have laughed at you. I would have told you that I was a product manager, I liked tech and startups and those really weren't things I associated with a bank. I do now. My narrow view of what the right company for me was could have resulted in me missing a great opportunity to work on the things I really like to work on. I got lucky, this role came to me. I'm not sure I would have found it. This is why platforms like Linkedin and Twitter and the good old fashioned drink coffee with your network technique are activities that should not be neglected.

Lesson 3: Moving Company Doesn't Mean Starting From Zero

One of the things that scared me the most about changing role was the thought of having to start again in a new company. In Google, my reputation preceded me; people knew what it was like to work with me. I wasn't looking forward to having to build that credibility up again.  This has been much easier than I expected. I realised that it wasn't my reputation that had built up in Google, it was my behaviour.  I went into Google a graduate with no experience of working for a large company and came out with six years of experience; the experience changed my behaviour in Google and it meant my behaviour in Bank of Ireland was informed by it from day one.  Don't let fear about being new or having to start again hold you back.

Lesson 4: There Are Great People Everywhere

My team in Google was superb. We not only got things done but we had fun doing it. We challenged each other and supported each other. I was happy to go for a pint with anyone from my team on a Friday night. That's a great barometer for anyone you work with: are they sound enough for you to be willing to spend some of you non-work hours with them.  It turns out my team in Bank of Ireland is very like my team in Google – I'd happily grab an after work quiet one with any of them. And I do. The people I met in Google wanted Google to be the very best that it could be and the people I've met in Bank of Ireland want Bank of Ireland to be the very best that it can be. An 18 year old tech company and a 232 year old bank might not seem like they have a lot in common, but when so much of a company is determined by its people, these two actually have a lot more in common that you would expect.

Lesson 5: Careers Are Journeys Not Final Destinations

The days where you worked one job for your adult working life are gone. We will all have more than one role in more than one company. That's good.  It keeps us thinking big and we can learn and leverage more than we could if we just stayed in one place. It also asks more of you. You have to be focused on your career. If you don't want to stay in one place forever, then you should have a 3 year plan (I like 3 more than 5). If you don't know what skill or interest you want to explore next, how can you possibly build the steps to get there? I have a lot of conditions, things a role must meet before I'm interested (a product angle, a startup focus, a customer focus, freedom to execute and a positive contribution to my work life balance) and I know that if a role has those, then I can grow from it. If it doesn't I'm not interested because it's not going to help me on my journey.

So 90 days post-Ferrari, did I make the right decision? Yes I did. What type of car is my new role? I don't know yet, it's still under construction. It's new for the bank and it's new for me but I know my team is passionate, driven and equipped to succeed.  And when I leave the office this evening, I'll be in my favourite city close to my family, and when I meet my other half at home, at a reasonable hour, there'll be no excuse not to go out for a jog on this sunny evening. Ok so there is a downside: jogging!

My new jogging route!
