Breast Cancer Support – Keep the Spirits High

I just wonder; is it really difficult to take out sometime from our busy schedules and try to listen to people who do not have any one to talk to?

Well I am writing this because a dear friend of mine wanted me to wear “Pink colored Tie” to support “Breast Cancer Day” – I simply admire her for drawing my attention towards this point. Thanks Barbie!

I then went through different web-sites on Breast Cancer – but I found this Particular One really helpful. I have a suggestion for many young guys and girls like me, to spend few minutes a week with someone who is suffering from this severe illness or even any other illness. It will have many positive after effects on you, for instance;

Ø  You will definitely realize how blessed you are – to be healthy and fit.

Ø  You will get the inner satisfaction that someone is really there, who waits for your visit every week/month on any particular day. This is an amazing feeling (try it out to experience it)

Ø  The happiness which you will cause to the person can only be seen in the teary eyes (tears of happiness) but can never be expressed in words by him or her.

Ø  The contentment level will be high. Why? You will be aware of one thing that you are making a difference in someone’s life, by brightening up his or her day.

It is definitely not difficult. All that is required is courage to say “Hello How are you feeling today?” and then the conversation will take its own pace.

Wearing pink ribbon is definitely good – but spending a few minutes with a patient will be better. This habit will definitely make you realize numerous things which you might have never thought about.

You might come across a Top-Notch Banker Excelling in her field, four years ago, but now if you will meet her you can sense the difference in her life – Don’t let this DIFFERENCE spread more.

I am not sure whether I have fully conveyed my message / feeling or not! But all I know is that! My friends and readers are far sensitive and intelligent than me.

Bless you all!!

Keep Smiling and try to be the reason of other’s smiles.

SIMPLETON's THOUGHT

Why is it so hard and difficult to be “Simple” and so easy and simple to be “Difficult”? I might not have known the reason all my life but thanks to the cook of mine who made me realize this fact. I have always been taught that never concentrate on “who is saying anything” but always try to understand on “what is being said”.

Allow me to put it in simpler words; it is so easy to point out the mistakes of the others. Isn’t it? It must have happened to most of the readers in some points in their lives that they must have pointed out the mistakes of others. For instance the most recurrent example could be any batsman playing any stroke – for example Shahid Afridi. Every tom dick and harry comments on the particular stroke which leads to either a catch or loss of a wicket, without even thinking about the pressure which he must have been facing at that particular time. On the contrary when any friend from the university or any colleague from the office presents any report or presentation in front of the whole class or board, most of the individuals point out a lot of fault and blunders without considering the fact that it takes a lot of courage to stand in front of the crowd and speak or present anything. If you had so much of capability to point different mistakes out, why didn’t you participated and stood, where your friend of colleague is standing. One Simple answer to this is – “It is easy to point mistakes out rather than stand up and face the odds”. So those who are standing up and being brave – let us appreciate them and take inspiration from them.

Why is it that we always see the problems in out surroundings? Why are we always not happy with others? Why do we always point out the loop holes in the performances of the actors? Why do we always try to find the reason for any one’s good acts? Why do we make things complicated?  Yes we do make them a lot complicated! By asking another Question in reply to one simple question!

Don’t we?

Have we become insecure, afraid and conscious about ourselves?

I personally think, “WE ARE”. This is the reason why we have started to point out the flaws and faults in others, so that no one can point any mistakes or errors in us.

The art of being happy is living a simple, contented and non-biased life. By accepting your mistakes you are considered to be the bravest individual. It is not easy to accept your own fault and those who accept their mistakes are liked and appreciated by many. This helps to develop a better personality which is effective in it’s own way.

Try it, to believe it.

Its Simply SIMPLE

Stay blessed!

We Need Guides Today – Not Imposers

It is really a matter of luck to meet someone who is blessed with the experience, expertise and great knowledge from different phases of life, along with the different sectors exposed. In today’s life when on the one hand it is commonly said by almost all the Gurus that “it is good to share experiences” whereas on the contrary it has been observed that people are so busy to spare time for their families and friends – who could ever think for the exchange of thoughts and experiences? Any ways I still feel myself lucky to meet someone who was and still is a worth meeting person.

Last week I happened to meet this great person, who is a combination of repute, regard, jovial charms and very accurate in finding the Lacuna in the society as well as in the mind set of our corporate cultures. While we were sitting together, we discussed many things from cultures to trends and from codes of army to civil trends and life styles. He shared his vast experiences with me – I am thankful to him for his precious time and knowledge which he imparted with me. We then discussed about the current scenario of our countries’ employment policies. I agreed to all his approaches, he had an absolute spot analysis on the subject.

In our corporate culture, we often come across to a similar statement that is “For the jobs, only those can apply who are either IBA graduates or LUMS graduates – rest please don’t bother to drop your CVs” – Well to be honest I, in fact We, do not have any grudges against the mentioned universities but just a thought crosses our minds. “Does All the Talent Belong To Only Top Notch Universities?” What about those countless girls and guys who are striving hard to achieve their education and working simultaneously to accomplish their dreams of becoming SOMEONE from NO-ONE? Give a thought!

We are not of the view that every Tom, Dick and Harry is included in this but those who are hard working, dedicated and focused in life; they do need a chance to prove themselves. In today’s world we even do not care to look at the résumés of those candidates who do not belong to top 3 Universities. Does it mean that rest of the institutions are not producing any talent or the students of the rest of the universities are not capable to face the challenges in the life? – We need to have a Reality Check.

As per our discussion, we also concluded that, in this age we lack people with vision. We may have highly qualified people around us, but we are not sure whether they are EDUCATED or not. Qualification and Education are two different streams; we usually count them as ONE. Today we need Guides who can provide pure guidance rather than those individuals who impose their thoughts and observations on budding talents – without knowing their capabilities. Everyone wants to be considered as the most knowledgeable and accurate person – and that is why he thinks that whatever decision which he has made does not need any alternative verification or opinion. That is what mostly happens to the youth when they are forced by their seniors, teachers, parents and colleagues etc to select any particular profession or subjects – without providing them a vision but a “quick brisk walk” towards the goal, without analyzing whether they will be able to make it up to the end or exhaust themselves before reaching to the target.

It is high time to think LOGICALLY rather than so called “practically”. I would definitely like to thank Mr. M. Baseer Khan to broadening my visions and giving me his precious time – He had been associated with the Pakistan Army and over a decade he has also been exposed to the corporate sector. There were certain other topics which were shared and discussed, which soon I will be sharing with my readers.

Hope it would have knocked the minds of my readers – for once at least.
Keep thinking before implementing!
