Make Organization a Daily Habit:

Quick pointers:

• Don't be intimidated by the idea of "getting organized." Start by putting things back where they belong and throwing away things you don't need.

• Break up big tasks into smaller tasks.

• Stick to doing just one task at a time.

• Use electronic reminders. Set your computer or smartphone to alert you five minutes before every event in your calendar (some apps like 'Google keep' app helps you to synch your events on 'To do list' to multiple systems).

• Between tasks, take a walk or get fresh air.

• Healthy habits- Regular exercise and team sports can also help you work together with others, learn to set and meet goals, and feel better about yourself.

• In office- Ask for a quiet cubicle or space, so you aren’t distracted by others.

• In meetings- Take quick notes.

• Tired to sit for a non critical meeting- Go for 'walking meeting'. It is simply that: a meeting that takes place during a walk instead of in an office.

• Bulk of Emails? Then create specific folders. Like for, bills, official, personal, charity, subscription mailers, entertainment etc.

• Organizing tips can help you manage your time and activities better. Get into the habit of putting all your appointments and activities on a calendar. It doesn't matter if it's a day planner, a smartphone app, or just a plain old desk calendar. Keep it in one spot and check it at least three times a day. Make it a habit to check at the same times each day.

• Each morning, make a list of the things you want to get done that day. Try to keep your list realistic, so you'll have a good chance of getting to everything. Arrange your tasks in order of importance, putting the most important tasks first. Assign each task a specific time of day. Cross off each task when you complete it.

• What if my tasks do not go as I have planned in my 'To do list'-  If you see a lot of unfinished tasks left on your "to-do" lists, try to figure out why.
1. Did you try to get everything done at one time?
2. Did you list big tasks that could have been broken down into smaller ones?
3. Did distractions keep you from completing your tasks?

√ Use this information to help arrange future "to-do" lists, or to find ways to work more efficiently.

• Physical storage? These items and files also should have a dedicated place. Use filing cabinets, labels, clear storage boxes, and over-the-door organizers. And take 10 minutes each day to pick up and return items to their proper places.

$$$ Money?? $$$-
Knowing how much you spend each month -- and on what -- will help you manage your money.

What is Emotional Intelligence and it's importance for successful life:

-   Understanding the concept of EQ: Emotional Intelligence, or emotional quotient (EQ), is defined as an individual's ability to identify, evaluate, control, and express emotions. People with high EQ usually make great leaders and team players because of their ability to understand, empathize, and connect with the people around them.  IQ, or intelligence quotient, is score derived from one of several standardized tests designed to assess an individual's intelligence. IQ is used to determine academic abilities and identify individuals with off-the-chart intelligence or mental challenges. EQ is a better indicator of success in the workplace and is used to identify leaders, good team players, and people who best work by themselves. Emotional awareness is best inculcated from an early age by encouraging qualities like sharing, thinking about others, putting oneself in another person's shoes, giving individual space and the general principles of cooperation. There are toys an...

Being a father of a girl is a real pride for every man:

 🌸🌺🌻🌹🌷🌼💐 A woman asks her husband: "What are you expecting,  a boy or a girl?" ” The husband replies: "If it's a boy, I'll teach him math, we'll work out together, teach him how to fish, etc." The woman, laughing, asks:  "What if it's a girl?" ” The husband smiles and says,  "If it's a girl,  I won't have to teach her anything."  She will teach me everything:  how to dress,  how to eat,  what to say and what not to say.  Very soon,  she'll become like a second mom to me,  and even without doing anything special,  she'll always consider me as her hero.  She'll understand when I tell her no  and she'll still compare her future husband to me.  No matter how old she gets,  she will always want me to treat her like my little princess. She'll fight for me against the world,  and if anyone hurts me,  she'll never forgive them. ” The woman,  a little intrigued, asks:  "You mean your d...

You can win with "butterfly effect":

Each one of us are born genius. It is true if you believe in the power of your own self. The secret of success most of the times lies in our attitudes. Eric Thomas quotes this in a very fascinating way ' When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you’ll be successful'. There is a very motivating story about Edward Lorenz an MIT meteorologist who tried to explain why it is so hard to make good weather forecasts. In 1963, Edward Lorenz presented a hypothesis to the New York Academy of Science. His theory stated simply, was that: A butterfly could flap its wings and set molecules of air in motion, which would move other molecules of air, in turn moving more molecules of air—eventually capable of starting a hurricane on the other side of the planet. Lorenz and his ideas were literally laughed out of the conference. What he had proposed was ridiculous. It was preposterous. But it was fascinating! Therefore, because of the idea’s charm and intrigue, th...

The first step to Knowledge: to know that you know nothing:

*"That Which You Know Already" - Real Life Story !* 'Ouspensky' was a marvelous thinker from Russia. He had written many books, one of which had brought special fame. It was said that there was no book in the world to equal his. At the time Ouspensky went to visit 'Gurdjieff', He was a famous man, Gurdjieff was a simple 'Fakir'. Ouspensky said to him: ”I want to put some questions to you.” Gurdjieff handed him a blank piece of paper and said: ”Before we talk, write down all that you know and all that you do not know. Then we shall talk on that which you do not know. That which you know already, needs no elucidation. It will only profit you if we talk on the matters you do not know.” That was a strange way to greet a famous man! However Ouspensky took the paper and went in a corner of the room He meant to make a long list. But when he started to write, he found himself in a strange predicament!  He asked himself: ”Do I know God?”  The answer came from w...

Life Begins When You Do:

It's up to you to make choices that work best for you. It really is all within your point of view. Regret is a matter of perspective. If you like who you are NOW, it follows that you can embrace, without regret, all the choices that led you here.  Difficulties impact me—they do not define me. Challenges mold me—they do not make me. Praise may encourage me—it is my own vision that inspires me. Success may spur me on but it is my own reward that satisfies me. Pain may permeate but my heart and hope prevail. Criticism and pettiness may knock but the lock is on my side of the door. Abundance may pave the road but it is generosity that lights the way. As long as I'm breathin'—I'm livin'. My way. Beginning every fresh moment—now! Source: simple truths promotional mail

A leader who was not tempted by the fashion or the praise of people:

- A story of ANGELA MERKEL a chancellor of GERMANY when her nation BID FAREWELL to her during end of her term. With six minutes of warm applause, on the streets, balconies, windows, the whole Country applauded for 6 minutes - spectacular example of leadership and defense of humanity, chapeaux ! Image source: https://getlighthouse.com/ The Germans elected her to lead them, and she led 80 million Germans for 18 years with *competence, skill, dedication and sincerity*. *She did not utter nonsense. She did not appear in the alleys of Berlin to be photographed. She was dubbed "The Lady of the World" and who was described as the equivalent of six million men.* During these eighteen years of her leadership of the authority in her Country, *no transgressions were recorded against her. She did not assign any of her relatives to a government post. She did not claim that she was the maker of glories. She did not get millions in payment, nor did anyone cheer her performance, she did not ...
