The Weeping Lecturer

In the morning, the heavens opened and it began to rain. Bella grabbed her umbrella to get to school, as she walked out of the hostel the first

Coming Of The Saint

Turning and turning in the widening gyre.

The falcon cannot hear the falconer;

Things fall apart: the centre cannot hold.

Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world.

The blood-dimmed tide is loosed and 

everywhere.

The ceremony of innocence is drowned:

The best lack all conviction, while the worst

Are full of passionate intensity.


Surely some revelation is at hand;

Surely the coming of the saint is at hand

The coming of the saint! Hardly are those words out

When the vast image out of spirits Mundi

Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert

A shape with lion body and the head of a man 


Hence a gaze blankly, wearily bleary eyes 

And pitiless as the sun is moving its slow thigh

Is moving its slow thigh, while all about it

Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds 

The darkness drops again; but now I know 

Just a nightmare on the end.

Things you should expect when you connect with your spot

Get out of the rat race. After all, if you win, you will simply be the big rat. Stop running in the competition. The only person you should compete with is yourself. "how well am I performing in my leadership spot," is what you should ask yourself. You have to know that the battery does not compete with a spark plug, because the battery knows the spark plug can never be a battery, and so on. They sit in the engine in their spots and serve the engine their gift without competing

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Adding value to other people is the work of a positive influencer

As you move up to the higher levels of influence and become an active influencer, you can begin to have a positive influence on people and add value on their lives. That's true for any positive influencer. The baby-sitter who reads to the child encourages him to love books and helps him become a lifelong learner. The teacher who puts his faith, confidence, and love on a child helps the child to feel valued and good about herself. That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people. Perhaps you use the opportunity
