Commitment is what transforms a promise into reality…….

Commitment is what transforms a promise into reality. It is the words that speak boldly of your intentions. And the actions which speak louder than the words. It is making the time when there is none. Coming through time after time after time, year after year after year. Commitment is the stuff character is made of; the power to change the face of things. It is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism. – Abraham Lincoln

20 Life Lessons A Wise Man Would Share

  

 

No One is Perfect.  The quicker this is realized the faster you can get on with being excellent.  Start every morning ready to fight harder than you did the day before and run further than you ever imagine.

Avoid over explaining yourself.  Be confident with who you are.

Keep balance in your life.  Write down what’s most important to you and show up.  Sometimes we tend to do the things that are most important to us when it’s written down.

Play the hand you were dealt.  Have the courage to face challenges head on it builds character.  Start looking for a way through instead of a way out.

Be a student of lifeLearn something new every day.  The day you stop learning is the day you become obsolete so keep learning.

No Excuses.  Stop making excuses replace them with ways to do better.  Excuses are a waste of time and energy.

Let others know where you Stand.  Be uncompromising and be up front when someone steps on your core values.      

Never be afraid of a challenge.  You put on your shoes like every other man.  Now it comes down to who wants it more.

Service to others.  Small, simple or important be a volunteer and give the very best of you.   

Work like hell.  Everyone has a job to do so do it.  Cross every “T” and dot every “I”.  

Discover You.  Find your passion, life purpose, and take action.

Don’t take it Personal.  Don’t be afraid to laugh at yourself self confidence shows that you’re comfortable in your own skin.

Manage your time.  Our situation and environment is ever changing so be careful not to confuse the things that are urgent with the things that are important.  Look for time wasters and eliminate them.

Ask for help.  Life can be tough remember you never have to do it alone. 

Do your homework.  Know what you getting into before you start.  Doing your homework reduces uncertainty and fear.

Day Dream Often.  On the weekend when you are relaxing embrace a day dream.  During the week take action to preserve your dreams. 

Be A HERO.  Cultivate a healthy dose of forgiveness and set someone free.  Learn to forgive others and stop carrying those bags of hate, guilt or regret.     

Stay One Step Ahead.  Be proactive, Take the initiative, Brainstorm with the big picture in mind.

Self Love.  Become your own priority.  Strive to be the you, you want to be.  

Finish what you started.  Avoid the urge to stray.

Competencia para Dropbox... llega el Gigante Google

If Google's new service sounds a lot like what's already available from companies like Dropbox, that's because it is nearly identical.

Google

FORTUNE -- After months of speculation, Google (GOOG) has finally unveiled its very own file sharing service, Google Drive.

In a blog post Tuesday morning, the search company called the new product "a place where you can create, share, collaborate, and keep all of your stuff." The "stuff" Google is referring to are all kinds of files -- videos, photos, documents, PDFs and the like. Users will now be able to upload pictures or spreadsheets to Google Drive and share them with a link, instead of sending a bulky file. They can also access their files from an app available on Android phones and tablets. A version for Apple's (AAPL) iOS is in the works, as well.

MORE: Splunk makes a splash

If this sounds a lot like what's already available from companies like Dropbox, that's because it is almost exactly the same. The difference is that Google already has Google Docs -- which will be built right into Drive -- and that it is offering its service for less money. Users can get up to five gigabytes of storage for free, and a whopping 100 gigabytes for $4.99 a month. Dropbox charges $19.99 per month for the same amount of storage.

But that doesn't mean Google Drive will kill off Dropbox, Box, SugarSync or any other player in the hotly-contested and fast-growing market for cloud storage services. Each of these companies is trying to carve out their own niche, and some have already managed to generate lots of traction, either with consumers or corporate users or both. Drive along the 101 freeway in the Silicon Valley and you'll see the billboard wars these companies have been waging. (SugarSync's new ad boasts "because your cloud shouldn't have to fit in a dropbox.")

As the lines blur between consumer and enterprise offerings, corporate-focused services are also competing for the same users. In the days leading up to Google's announcement, enterprise-geared companies like IntraLinks and Egnyte have reached out to the press with their own preemptive commentary on the upcoming service. "The race to the bottom on price, value and simplicity will brightly contrast business focused products that offer security, scalability, IT controls and in our case, the benefits of a hybrid cloud based solution," Vineet Jain, the CEO of enterprise file-sharing startup Egnyte said in a prepared statement.

Despite being a little late to the game, Google is serious about the enterprise -- it's made that evident with its efforts to push Google Apps and Android into the workplace. And the company's sheer size, ability to cut pricing and the widespread use of Google Docs, Gmail and other applications will likely help make Google Drive an attractive offering both in and outside the office. Let the cloud storage wars begin. Again.

¿Es Walmart el Unico Responsable?

Soborno

No soy anti Walmart,  ha tenido un impacto increíble en México, el numero de empleos que ha generado, la reducción en los costos de abastecimiento, la variedad de productos que ha traído a México.  Sinceramente creo que el crecimiento de nuestro país depende de las inversiones extranjeras y su confianza en nuestro país.


Por eso creo es triste que una empresa como Walmart se vea envuelta en un escandalo por los sobornos que ha dado en México para fomentar sus crecientito. Sin duda estos lapsos son una falta de respeto para sus inversionistas quien esperan transparencia, ética y una adherencia a los valores de la empresa. 

 Pero mas triste aun, es que en nuestro México sea necesario el dar sobornos a autoridades, usar gestores, apoyar a partidos políticos para obtener los permisos necesarios, para crear trabajos, evitar contratiempos y poder contribuir al crecimiento de la economía nacional.

 Los sobornos son prevalente en nuestra sociedad. Por mas que queramos ver a Walmart como el malo, piensen en el ultimo año  en los sobornos que o han dado o que saben que se dieron, y lo que hicieron..   Y he dado y se que se dio.. y me da pena admitir no hice nada.

 No me malinterpreten no estoy justificando a Walmart, ni justificando mis acciones.  Nosotros somos los responsables de este ambiente, de esta cultura.. ¿por qué?.. porque es el camino fácil.

 Walmart actuó mal, defraudo la confianza de sus inversionistas.  Aun así yo tengo fe que esta investigación va hacer que Walmart incremente sus controles, despida a los responsables, coopere con la autoridades para obtener justicia, vigile mas de cerca sus operaciones foráneas.  Walmart aunque seguro va a sufrir a corto plaza, saldrá como una empresa mas fuerte, ética y transparente.

 De lo que no tengo fe y mucho menos seguridad es de que esto traiga un cambio a México.  Pronto los responsables de los gobiernos locales y federales saldrán a sus defensa escondiéndose detrás de tecnicismos.  Las autoridades de los despachos de auditores y de la Bolsa de Valores declarara su inocencia en su obligación de vigilar las actividades de sus clientes y asociados. 

 ¿Y nosotros ? Seguro la próxima vez que nos pare uno de transito…”Poli… tengo prisa, tome para sus cheskos!”

Regain Your Focus

Multitasking may speed you through your to-do list, but it also makes you more likely to make mistakes and miss important cues, and less likely to retain information. Here are three ways to focus: • Think good thoughts. Positive emotions improve the brain's executive function and encourage creative and strategic thinking. Improve your emotional balance by actively thinking about things that make you happy.
• Ban distractions. Be aware of what steals your attention. When disrupted, make a conscious choice to return to the task at hand.
• Leave things behind. When you turn to a new task, part of your brain is still thinking about the last one. Before starting something new, go for a walk, climb stairs, or do some deep breathing to clear your head.

Adapted from “Train Your Brain to Focus” by Paul Hammerness, MD, and Margaret Moore.

Disney y su secreto para llegar a las Ultilidades

Walt-piano-wr

“I knew if this business was ever to get anywhere, if this business was ever to grow, it could never do it by having to answer to someone unsympathetic to its possibilities, by having to answer to someone with only one thought or interest, namely profits. For my idea of how to make profits has differed greatly from those who generally control businesses such as ours. I have blind faith in the policy that quality, tempered with good judgment and showmanship, will win against all odds.”

Los días mas importantes de la Vida

Los dos días mas importantes de tu vida son, el día que naces y el día que averiguas porque
-Marl Twain

The two most important days in your life are the day you are born, and the day you find out why.
-Mark Twain

One Thing at a time

Why is it that between 25% and 50% of people report feeling overwhelmed or burned out at work?

It's not just the number of hours we're working, but also the fact that we spend too many continuous hours juggling too many things at the same time.

What we've lost, above all, are stopping points, finish lines and boundaries. Technology has blurred them beyond recognition. Wherever we go, our work follows us, on our digital devices, ever insistent and intrusive. It's like an itch we can't resist scratching, even though scratching invariably makes it worse.

Tell the truth: Do you answer email during conference calls (and sometimes even during calls with one other person)? Do you bring your laptop to meetings and then pretend you're taking notes while you surf the net? Do you eat lunch at your desk? Do you make calls while you're driving, and even send the occasional text, even though you know you shouldn't?

The biggest cost — assuming you don't crash — is to your productivity. In part, that's a simple consequence of splitting your attention, so that you're partially engaged in multiple activities but rarely fully engaged in any one. In part, it's because when you switch away from a primary task to do something else, you're increasing the time it takes to finish that task by an average of 25 per cent.

But most insidiously, it's because if you're always doing something, you're relentlessly burning down your available reservoir of energy over the course of every day, so you have less available with every passing hour.

I know this from my own experience. I get two to three times as much writing accomplished when I focus without interruption for a designated period of time and then take a real break, away from my desk. The best way for an organization to fuel higher productivity and more innovative thinking is to strongly encourage finite periods of absorbed focus, as well as shorter periods of real renewal.

If you're a manager, here are three policies worth promoting:

1. Maintain meeting discipline. Schedule meetings for 45 minutes, rather than an hour or longer, so participants can stay focused, take time afterward to reflect on what's been discussed, and recover before the next obligation. Start all meetings at a precise time, end at a precise time, and insist that all digital devices be turned off throughout the meeting.

2. Stop demanding or expecting instant responsiveness at every moment of the day. It forces your people into reactive mode, fractures their attention, and makes it difficult for them to sustain attention on their priorities. Let them turn off their email at certain times. If it's urgent, you can call them — but that won't happen very often.

3. Encourage renewal. Create at least one time during the day when you encourage your people to stop working and take a break. Offer a midafternoon class in yoga, or meditation, organize a group walk or workout, or consider creating a renewal room where people can relax, or take a nap.

It's also up to individuals to set their own boundaries. Consider these three behaviors for yourself:

1. Do the most important thing first in the morning, preferably without interruption, for 60 to 90 minutes, with a clear start and stop time. If possible, work in a private space during this period, or with sound-reducing earphones. Finally, resist every impulse to distraction, knowing that you have a designated stopping point. The more absorbed you can get, the more productive you'll be. When you're done, take at least a few minutes to renew.

2. Establish regular, scheduled times to think more long term, creatively, or strategically. If you don't, you'll constantly succumb to the tyranny of the urgent. Also, find a different environment in which to do this activity — preferably one that's relaxed and conducive to open-ended thinking.

3. Take real and regular vacations. Real means that when you're off, you're truly disconnecting from work. Regular means several times a year if possible, even if some are only two or three days added to a weekend. The research strongly suggests that you'll be far healthier if you take all of your vacation time, and more productive overall.

A single principle lies at the heart of all these suggestions. When you're engaged at work, fully engage, for defined periods of time. When you're renewing, truly renew. Make waves. Stop living your life in the gray zone.

Actions For A Happier Workplace | Delivering Happiness at Work

Happier organisations also outperform their competitors. A study looked at the stock market performance of the “100 Best Workplaces” in the US (based on positive feedback from employees about working there) over a 12 year period from 1998 to 2010. The Best Workplaces achieved an average annual return of 10%, outperforming the benchmark S&P 500 index which returned an average of only 3.8% over the same period.⁵

Perhaps most importantly, our individual attitudes and actions really do make a difference. Taking a more positive approach at work doesn’t just increase our own happiness, it affects those we work with too. Research shows that the happiness of a close contact increases the chance of being happy by 15%. The happiness of a 2nd-degree contact (e.g. friend’s friend) increases it by 10% and the happiness of a 3rd-degree contact (e.g. friend of a friend of a friend) by 6%.⁶

We can all play a part in creating a happier workplace, by encouraging our employers to take happiness seriously and by doing what we can personally to create a more fulfilling, positive and collaborative working environment. Let’s start today!

Guest blogger Mark Williamson is Director of Action for Happiness, a movement of 20,000 people and organisations taking action to create a happier society for everyone.
