ISSUE 5PSTS TIMES
New Record Breaks, New Clients, New Cargos, New Colleagues, New Job,
New Boss, New addition to the family, New Life partner - all new experiences are
always exciting, But sometimes it can even make one nervous.
Not only nervous, one can experience very mixed emotions. There are days when one
feels life is like a pretty picture seen through rosy glasses. There are
some days when nothing goes right and life looks very grim and gloomy.
Remember, at all these Times, keeping a positive attitude and wearing a smile always helps!
Keep the Faith and Keep Smiling - at work and more importantly at home as well!
Developing Leadership Skills
Leaders transmit the special “something” that attracts people around them. But if one realises that every
individual has leadership skills, identify those skills and develop them, then one would be effective both at work
and at home.
A leader is someone who can
take charge and make things happen
accept responsibility for his/her actions
rely on his/her own judgement
can take risks
convey authority in a way that makes others feel good
delegate and empower others
make good decisions
do the right things and not just doing things right
Try to develop these skills and you are sure to become a leader. Good Luck!

Someone discovered my PASSWORD !!!
Now I have to rename my Dog.
Use strong passwords. A simple password, such as your pet's name,
is not sufficient protection. Hackers systematically check every
possible word to decipher passwords in no time. If you use a
password to access any computer or Internet services, make sure
that they are hard to guess and keep them to yourself. Also, use
different passwords for different things. If someone guesses a
password for one, you don't want them to have access to all those
services. Never give out your password to anyone!
