I have donated my eyes !!.. You ?????
Imagine you are doing some work in the house and suddenly power goes off...All darkness right? Now you try to go and fetch for the candle or for the emergency light in this darkness...difficult to walk through right? The only color you can see is BLACK right? may be your favorite but is this fine for your whole life??
No right! Then think of the people who are blind forever, in their life and only color in their life is Black and just deep Black! How would they be coping up with their day-to-day activities? Aren't they interested to see this colorful world, their parents, their friends? Aren't they interested to do things easily rather than imagining?
"There is no lovelier way to thank God for your sight than by giving a helping hand to those in the dark."
I said thanks to the god by donating my eyes on my birthday (today,November 5). Now its Your turn !!... When you going to do ??

A Heart Touching Story
An 80 year old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45
years old highly educated son. Suddenly a crow perched on their window.
The Father asked his Son, "What is this?"
The Son replied "It is a crow".
After a few minutes, the Father asked his Son the 2nd time, "What is this?"
The Son said "Father, I have just now told you "It's a crow".
After a little while, the old Father again asked his Son the 3rd time,
What is this?"
At this time some ex-pression of irritation was felt in the Son's tone when
he said to his Father with a rebuff. "It's a crow, a crow".
A little after, the Father again asked his Son t he 4th time, "What is
this?"
This time the Son shouted at his Father, "Why do you keep asking me the
same question again and again, although I have told you so many times 'IT
IS A CROW'. Are you not able to understand this?"
A little later the Father went to his room and came back with an old
tattered diary, which he had maintained since his Son was born. On opening
a page, he asked his Son to read that page. When the son read it, the
following words were written in the diary :-
"Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a
crow was sitting on the window. My Son asked me 23 times what it was, and I
replied to him all 23 times that it was a Crow. I hugged him lovingly each
time he asked me the same question again and again for 23 times. I did not
at all feel irritated I rather felt affection for my innocent child".
While the little child asked him 23 times "What is this", the Father had
felt no irritation in replying to the same question all 23 times and when
today the Father asked his Son the same question just 4 times, the Son felt
irritated and annoyed.
So..
If your parents attain old age, do not repulse them or look at them as a
burden, but speak to them a gracious word, be cool, obedient, humble and
kind to them. Be considerate to your parents.From today say this aloud, "I
want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I
was a little child. They have always showered their selfless love on me.
They crossed all mountains and valleys without seeing the storm and heat to
make me a person presentable in the society today".
Say a prayer to God, "I will serve my old parents in the BEST way. I will
say all good and kind words to my dear parents, no matter how they behave.

Tips for facing the interview !!
Prepare for the interview
Dress appropriately in simple, comfortable clothes that reflect your personality.
Avoid wearing new shoes (squeaking noises) and do practice wearing your tie.
Be punctual – don't be late or even too early.
Read up about the company, what business they are into, growth trends, diversification etc
Read your own resume - be sure that you don't have to look into your resume to recall details during the interview
Carry extra copies of your resume and testimonials – you never know when you may need them.
Make sure you know the full name and designation of the person interviewing you
Keep your references ready
Remember to make a note of your previous or current salary with all its components.
Make a good first impression
Wish the interviewer( s) cheerfully and with a smile
A firm handshake is an indicator of how you are feeling. If you are a lady, then some male employers might not make the first move, but go ahead and initiate the handshake Wait till you are asked to sit down Look the person in the eye
Do not appear too nervous or overconfident. Your body language usually conveys more than what you are saying. Don't slouch or lean forward too much.
Try to curb nervous mannerisms eg. fidgeting or biting your finger.]
Appear comfortable, confident and interested in securing the job
During the interview...
Start the interview with a pleasant smile.
Always remember to give a firm handshake. If there are women in your interview panel, wait for the other person to extend the hand while shaking hands.
Listen carefully to what the interviewer is saying
Stress on what you can contribute to the organisation.
Remember that the employer is in control of the interview
Don't be too long-winded – say what you want to convey in crisp sentences and use terms that would convey your job & achievements.
Complete your sentences - don't answer just yes or no
What you don't know can be learned – tell them if you don't know something. But give instances of how quick a learner you are.
Do not boast. People on the other side are shrewd and can generally see through you. At the same time talk about achievements giving due credit to others.
When talking about yourself and your aspirations, do not sound vague or do not say that you don't know something. You should be very clear and precise about what you want to do, where you want to go etc.
If you don't understand a question, ask for clarification, don't answer vaguely.
Don't talk about your personal problems, why you need the job etc
Don't get personal – even if you know the interviewer personally
Don't be overconfident or too nervous
Don't badmouth your previous employer - you could do the same in the case of the prospective customer
Don't complain about politics, a bad boss or a poor salary - your reasons for change should be higher responsibilities, location etc.
If the interviewer is interrupted during the course of the interview, don't pick up papers on his/her desk and read them
Don't ask about salary before the offer is made
Strike a balance between what you actually are and what you want to be –don't paint a picture of yourself as somebody who is not concerned about money, social status etc.
Don't be in a hurry to complete the interview
Ask questions at the end of the interview – it could be about the
company, the job or the next stage of the interview process. It will be an indicator of your interest in the position
Send a thank-you letter – outlining your interest in the job and why you are qualified for it.
Be Positive and Confident - and the job is yours !

It is called Life !
A Long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he
could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then
the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered.
Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as
fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on
riding
and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible.
When he was hungry,thirsty or tired, he did not stop because he wanted
to cover as much area as possible. Came to a point when he had covered
a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked
himself, "Why did I pushed myself so hard to cover so much land area?
Now
I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself."
The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very
hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We
neglect our health, time with our family and to appreciate the
surrounding
beauty and the hobbies we love to do.
One day when we look back, we will realize that we don't really need
that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.
Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition. Life is
definitely not about work! Work is only necessary to keep us living so
as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life.
Lessons to Learn from The Story:
Life is a balance of Work and Play, Family and Personal time. You have
to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities,
realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your
decisions be based on your instincts.
Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of
human existence. So, take it easy, do what you want to do and
appreciate
nature. Life is fragile, Life is short. Do not take Life for granted.
Live a balance lifestyle and enjoy Life!

Body Language Tips
1- Always look at someone directly in their eyes when they are speaking to you. This may seem difficult at first but it's definitely the #1 body language ingredient to make you successful when interacting with others. Note: Do not ever stare at someone.
2- Always stand up straight. You never want to slouch. Not only does this make you appear shorter but it projects an image of someone who has low self-esteem.
3- Smile. Smiling is your most powerful body language signal. Though it is not recommended to smile constantly (people will be under the impression you are searching for approval), you should still make an effort to appear happy and optimistic.
4- Do not make repeated, nervous like gestures. When speaking to someone it's important to use body movements but never fast and repetitive ones (picture someone who is nervous while public speaking; this is exactly what you're NOT aiming for).
5- Create your own personal space. Make sure you let others know you have your own personal space and do not let them walk all over you. Note: you never want to invade someone else's personal space.
6- Dedicate all of your attention to the person you are speaking with. Do not constantly look around as if you are uncomfortable or not interested.
7- Make sure to emphasize all of these tips when you meet someone new. First impressions count for a lot. You want to make the best impression you can.

Language is a nice friend
Language is the best friend of ourselves.I will tell some of the points which should be followed to learn a language.This is not only for ENGLISH.U can follow it to all the languages.
DO'S AND DONT'S
A. DONT'S
1.AVOID LOOKING LANGUAGE AS A STRANGE ONE
First of all,try to avoid looking at a language as the strange thing.Dont think that we dont know that language.Try to think in a way that,in few days that language is going to be ours after learning.
2.DONOT GET SCAREDBY ACCENT
I have seen many people dropping their efforts to learn a language by looking at the accent.There is nothing to bother about accent.THE LANGUAGE IS THE WAY OF COMMUNICATION.You are going to use the language to communicate.So it is enough,if you know how to use that.
Being good in accent is great.But it is better not to care than to get scared.
3.DONOT CARE THE COMMENTS PASSED ON YOU
90% of the persons are not able to communicate because of their importance given to the comments.We should not stop speaking in english for the reason of the comments passed on us.Let our friends comment that we are always speaking in english like american.But we should care about that.When we face inetrview,they are not going to help us in any way,if we are rejected due to the lack of communiaction skills.
4.DONOT GIVE UP LEARNING LANGUAGE DUE TO INITIAL MISTAKES
When we learn a language,surely we are liable to make mistakes.None in this world can learn without making even a single mistake.While you start to speak,even the whole conversation by you may be wrong.But dont feel for that and give up.Try to take care that next day atleast one word you uttered is correct.
B. DO'S
1.SPEAK TO YOURSELF IN ENGLISH
Try to speak in english to yourself.Daily night while you go to bed,start to speak to you about everything happened from morning.You try to express each in english.At that time,surely you will get doubt about the usage or you may not know the word in english.Nextday,you ask the someone about the correct usage and note it down.
2.MAKE YOUR DIARY AS A SMALL DICTIONARY
While you speak in english to yourself every night,you many get many doubts.So you refer the dictionary for the meanings and know the apt word.You write those words in diary.You keep the diary with you always.While you going by bus or train or....,you look in to the diary and try to recollect all.Become the author of the small dictionary.
3.REFER ENGLISH-ENGLISH DICTIONARY
This is the important thing while refering dictionary.Avoid looking at english-native language dictionary.Then while someone ask you the meaning,you will get only in native language.You will not get immediately the correct english word.So try to make you to answer the meaning in correct english word.
4.TRY TO GIVE THE CORRECT MEANING
You have to know the correct meaning of the word and you should be able to answer the question correctly.And very important thing is that it is not enough if you know only the usage.You must be able to give the correct meaning also.I am also one of the person who makes this mistake.I know the meaning of most words.But sometimes,i know to place the word in the correct position.But i dont know to give the meaning.So try to avoid that habit.If u know the word,you should give the meaning also.
These are the points which striked in my mind and the points which i follow.I think this will surely help you.Try to become master in every language.ALL THE BEST.

A good story for all of us to follow in our careers and social life
Once upon a time a Washer man was bringing up two donkeys. Let us say Donkey-A and Donkey-B.
Donkey-A felt it was very energetic and could do better than the other.
It always tried to pull the washer man's attraction over it by taking more load and walking fast in front of him.
Innocent Donkey-B is normal, so it will walk normal, irrespective of the washer man's presence. After a period of time,
Washer man started Pressurizing Donkey-B to be like Donkey-A. But Donkey-B unable to walk fast,
got continuous punishment from washer man. It was crying and told personally to Donkey-A"
Dear friend, only we two are here, why to compete with each other....we can carry equal load at normal speed ".
That made Donkey-A all the more energetic and next day it told to washer man that it can carry more load and even it can run fast also.
Obviously happier washer man looked at Donkey-B.., his BP raised and he started kicking Donkey-B.
Next day with smile, Donkey-A carried more load and started running fast. But it was breathtaking for Donkey-B and it couldn't act that way....
But the washer man was frustrated, so he harassed Donkey-B terribly, and finally it fell down hopelessly.
Then Donkey-A felt itself as a supremo and happily started carrying more load with great speed.
But now the Load of the Donkey-B is also being carried by Donkey-A., and still it has to run fast.
For some period it did, finally due to fatigue it got tired and started feeling the pain.
But washer man expected more from Donkey-A. It also tried best, but couldn't cope up with his owners demand.
The Washer man got angry with Donkey-A also and started harassing to take more load... Donkey-A was crying for long time and then tried its best...
But it couldn't meet the owner's satisfaction.
Finally the day came when due to frustration the washer man killed Donkey-A and went for searching some other Donkeys.
It's an endless story..........
But the moral of the Story in Corporate and social life is......,
"Think all colleagues are same and that everyone is capable.... Always Share the Load equally.....
Don't ever act smart in front of your Boss and never try for getting over-credit...
Don't feel happy when ur colleague is under pressure... "
It doesn't matter if you are A or B, for the Boss, you shall be always DONKEY
And most importantly,
Never Work Hard…
Work Cleverly.
Donkey-A felt it was very energetic and could do better than the other.

Dont Under Estimate Others !!
A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his Customer,
"This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."
The barber puts a five rupee coin in one hand and two one rupee coins(1+1=2) in the other, then calls the boy over and asks,
"Which do you want, son?"
The boy takes the two one rupee coins and leaves.
"What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"
Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of
the ice cream store. "Hey, son! May I ask you a question?
Why did you take two one rupee coins instead of five rupee coin?"
The boy licked his cone and replied,
"Because THE DAY I TAKE THE FIVE RUPEE COIN, THE GAME IS OVER

"This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."
The barber puts a five rupee coin in one hand and two one rupee coins(1+1=2) in the other, then calls the boy over and asks,
"Which do you want, son?"
The boy takes the two one rupee coins and leaves.
"What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"
Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of
the ice cream store. "Hey, son! May I ask you a question?
Why did you take two one rupee coins instead of five rupee coin?"
The boy licked his cone and replied,
"Because THE DAY I TAKE THE FIVE RUPEE COIN, THE GAME IS OVER

How to Stay Highly Motivated
The degrees of success and happiness we achieve in life result overwhelmingly from the actions we take. But the actions which matter most are not those we do every now and then. It is our consistent actions (our habits) which more than anything else determine the direction and success of our lives. Thus, the first key to success is to adopt good habits.
However, the problem with the above bill of advice is that in the vast majority of cases our habits are not the result of conscious thought and logical decision making. Instead, our habits tend to be "reactions" to our experiences. If those experiences are disproportionately negative, they will tend to produce negative reactions and when this happens consistently, the mental foundation for the bad habit would have been laid.
Always remember that while all experiences count, the ones which count the most in shaping our habits are those which are most emotional and which occur most frequently, especially when we are young. But despite their obvious power and near control over our lives, we do not have to be slaves to our past experiences. Indeed, if those experiences have produced low self-esteem, self-defeating habits and other negative behaviors, we must not be slaves to them.
The most important tool to employ in order to take control of you habits (and as a result become the master of your destiny) is to be highly motivated. You must be driven. Your desire for success must be greater than your fear of failure. You must step outside your current comfort zone and take a chance. If you are not currently a highly motivated person, here are some steps you can take to become a more focused and motivated individual.
Establish Clear, Specific Goals!
You life goals are the things which give purpose to your life. They are the reason you live. Your desire to achieve these goals will be your greatest motivator. Thus, you must organize you life around the achievement of those goals. Write them down and read (internalize) them at least twice a day.
Take An Action A Day!
You must establish an action plan which requires that you do at least one thing each day which brings you closer to your goals. Never forget that it is action which turns goals and dreams into realities. Do something each day. Habit is nothing but repeated behavior. Just do it, do it, do it. And one day you will wake up and find yourself taking productive actions without even thinking about it. That is when you would have formed a habit.
Instill Emotion!
Rational thought and logic can enable us to figure out what to do and how to do it, but it is only emotion that will make us do it. Human behavior is emotionally driven. The two chief emotions are desire and fear. Strong desire will make you take action. But fear can also prompt action. You act because you are afraid of the consequences if you fail to act. I recommend the use of self-hypnosis to instill strong, positive emotional desire. And self-hypnosis can be as simple as retreating to a quiet place twice a day and emotionally repeating positive affirmations.
Take Charge!
Repeat this mantra, "If it is to be, it is up to me." There may be a host of reasons for current bad habits ranging from having been raised in a dysfunctional home to falling in with the wrong crowd, to just not having correct information. Regardless, if things are going to change for the better, it is up to you. No one else is responsible for bettering your life. If you find someone or group which helps, that's fine. But the chief responsibility is yours. Stop playing the "blame game" and take charge of your life.

Six Ways to make People Like You
Principle 1: Become genuinely interested in other people.
A simple way to make a good impression.
The expression one wears on one's face if far more important than the clothes one wears on one's back. Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, " I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you." You must have a good time meeting people i f you expect them to have a good time meeting you. You don't feel like smiling? Then what? Two things. First, force yourself to smile. If you are alone, force yourself to whistle or hum a tune or sing. Act as if you were already happy, and that will tend to make you happy. "Action seems to follow feeling, but really action and feeling go together; and by regulating the action, which is under the more direct control of the will, we can indirectly regulate the feeling, which is not." -William James. Happiness doesn't depend on outward conditions. It depends on inner conditions. It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it. "There is nothing either good or bad," said Shakespeare, "but thinking makes it so." Your smile is a messenger of your good will. Your smile brightens the lives of all who see it. To someone who has seen a dozen people frown, scowl or turn their faces away, your smile is like the sun breaking through the clouds.
Principle 2: Smile.
If you don't do this, you are headed for trouble
The average person is more interested in his or her own name than all the other names on earth put together. Remember that name and call it easily, and you have paid a subtle and very effective compliment. But forget it or misspell it-and you have plac e yourself at a sharp disadvantage. Whenever you meet a new acquaintance, find out his or her complete name and some facts about his or her family, business or political opinions. Fix all these facts well in mind as part of the picture, and the next time you meet that person, even if it was a year later, you will be able to shake hands, inquire after the family, and ask about the hollyhocks in the backyard. Sometimes it is difficult to remember a name, particularly if it is hard to pronounce. Rather than even try to learn it, many people ignore it or call the person by an easy nickname. Most people don't remember names, for the simple reason that they don't take the time and energy necessary to concentrate and repeat and fix names indelibly in their minds. If you don't hear the name distinctly say excuse me I didn't get your name clearly. Then, if it is an unusual name, ask how it is spelled. Use the person's name several times in the conversation; try to associate it in your mind with the person's featur es, expression and general appearance. Then, when you are alone write the name down on a piece of paper, look at it, and concentrate on it, fix it securely in your mind, in this way you will gain an eye impression of the name as well as an ear impression.
Principle 3: Remember that a person's name is to that person the sweetest and most important sound in any language.
An easy way to become a good conversationalist
Listen intently; listen because you are genuinely interested. That kind of listening is one of the highest compliments we can pay anyone. The chronic kicker, even the most violent critic, will frequently soften and be subdued in the presence of a patient, sympathetic listener-a listener who will be silent with the irate fault-finger dilates like a king cobra and spews the poison out of his system. Be more eager to hear what a person has to say then even they are to tell it. Many people prefer good list eners to good talkers, but the ability to listen seems rarer than almost any other good trait. All we want when we are in trouble is a friendly, sympathetic listener to unburden yourself. That is frequently all the irritated customer wants, and the dissat isfied employee or the hurt friend. If you want to know how to make people shun you and laugh at you behind your back and even despise you, here is the recipe: Never listen to anyone for long. Talk incessantly about yourself. If you have an idea while the other person is talking, don't wait for him or her to finish: bust right in and interrupt in the middle of a sentence. If you aspire to be a good conversationalist, be an attentive listener. To be interesting, be interested. Ask questions that other persons will enjoy answering. Encourage them to talk about themselves and their accomplishments.
Principle 4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves.
How to interest people
The royal road to a person's heart is to talk about the things he or she treasures most. Make an effort to find out what interests the person then get them talking about it. Talking in terms of the other person's interests pays off for both parties. When asked what reward he got from it, Mr. Herzig responded that he not only received a different reward from each person but that in general the reward had been an enlargement of his life each time he spoke to someone.
Principle 5: Talk in terms of the other person's interests.
How to make people like you instantly.
Ask yourself " What is there about him or her that I can honestly admire?" That is sometimes a hard question to answer, especially with strangers. You want approval of those with whom you come in contact. You want recognition of your true worth. You want a feeling that your are important in our little world. You don't want to listen to cheap, insincere flattery, but you do crave sincere appreciation. So let's obey the Golden Rule, and give unto others what we would have others give unto us. How? When? Where? The answer is all the time, everywhere. Use little phrases such as "I'm sorry to trouble you, ___." "Would you please ___?" "Won't you please?" "Would you mind?" "Thank you." The unvarnished truth is that almost all the people you meet feel themselves superior to you in some way, and a sure way to their hearts is to let them realize in some subtle way that you recognize their importance, and recognize it sincerely. Talk to people about themselves and they will listen for hours.
Principle 6: Make the other person feel important-and do it sincerely.
