Humour

From Jason Tate: My son, who just turned 4, was very proud of himself for learning a Bible verse in his class at our church's recent VBS. One afternoon, our conversation went as follows:
Me: "Chris, can you say your verse for me?"
Chris: "Luke 19:10 - The Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost."
I told him how wonderful he was, and then I wanted to know if he knew what the verse meant, so -
Me: "Who is the Son of Man?"
Chris: "Jesus!"
Me: "And who did He come to save?"
Chris: "The witch."

Inspiration for Motivation - Mother Theresa

"People are unreasonable, irrational and self-centred. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are successful you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.


In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It never was between you and them anyway.

13 dumb job-interview moves

This is a nice article that I read today.
Researchers spoke with executives at 1,000 big U.S. companies, plus 100 in Canada, and asked them to recall the most embarrassing or bizarre interview moments they had witnessed or heard of. A sampling of their answers:

"The person was dancing during the interview. He kept saying things like, 'I love life!' and 'Oh, yeah!'"

"One job applicant came in for his interview with a cockatoo on his shoulder."

"The candidate sent his sister to interview in his place."

"The candidate stopped the interview to ask me if I had a cigarette."

"We had one person who walked out of an interview straight into a glass door. The glass shattered."

"The candidate got his companies confused and repeatedly mentioned the strengths of a competing firm, thinking that was who he was interviewing with."

"A guy called me by the wrong name during the entire interview."

"We're a retail company, and when we asked the candidate why she wanted to work for us, she replied that she didn't want to work in retail anymore."

"An interviewee took his bubble gum out of his mouth and held it in his hand. Then he forgot about it and shook hands with me."

"A job seeker gestured with his hands so much that he then sat on them to stop it."

"A candidate fell asleep during the interview."

"An applicant was doing really well in the interview until we got to the question about why she had left her previous job. She told us everyone there was out to get her."

"A candidate insulted the interviewer's tie."

"Handling problems gracefully may actually impress interviewers," notes Dave Willmer, OfficeTeam's executive director. "But if the situation can't be overcome, move on and focus on the next opportunity. It's a learning experience that will someday make an entertaining story." If you can bear to recall it.

Be Grateful

This is a video of a 5-year old girl who is extremely talented. She plays the piano really well. It seems she can listen to a tune once and immediately play it on the piano! The fact that she is visually challenged doesnt really come in her way.

What am I complaining about today?
Truly, God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame.

How smart is your right foot?

Just a small exercise..
How smart is Your Right Foot ? Just try this.

1. While sitting where you are at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number '6' in the air with your right Hand. Your foot will change direction.

I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it! You and I both know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already done so
