Benefits of short breaks during working hours

As you go on to chase a deadline, you’ve already forgotten your meals and ignored to take some short breaks. A heroic act is what lingers in your mind. Besides, this is what your boss wants. Because your boss is a workaholic, he wants to see you also in his shadow. The lack of strategic planning and quality control has caused all of these cramming office scenarios. But there is no turning back and you need to accomplish your challenging job. When you look at your face in the mirror, you’ve noticed two big, dark and puffy bags under your eyes. Then you have called your fairy god mother and wish to get rid of them. But there is no fairy tale on this. What you need is a break. – a series of short breaks for relaxation and rejuvenation.

10 business lessons I learned in 2009

Goodbye 2009! The great memories and moments you have contributed to my life are just remarkable. Although 2010 is now the year that I will be seeing in calendars everywhere, the lessons I’ve learned in 2009 will always remain in my mind, in my heart and in my blood. Most of those wisdoms were production of my business activities directed by my never-ending spiritual conquest. This year, I’ll be a full-time entrepreneur, considering my release from employment last December 2009. The following business lessons I learned in 2009 will be my greatest tools to achieve entrepreneurial success in 2010.

1. Stick to your game plan
This is a lesson I learned from Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach, the world’s best boxer and trainer of the decade. Many people are asking what is the secret behind the great victories of the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world, the Pacman. The key is simple, stick to the game plan. In the world of entrepreneurship, we always have that game plan. That plan is directed to our main goals. However, there are several opportunities that come in our ways. Some of these opportunities are so attractive enough to drive us away from our original plans. The worst is… it’s already too late before we realize that we are already heading to the wrong direction, direction that will lead us to failure. Pacquiao, although he sees an opportunity to knockout his opponent during fight time, he maintains prudence and avoid carelessness to take the bait of his opponent. He sticks to the game plan and eventually become a winner. Simply in business, we should create the best plan, and then stand for it. Read more

How to become a healthy business person?

Busy… this is what describes most of business owners and entrepreneurs. Because of so much work and stress, they become physically unfit.  Some of them are craving to earn so much profit while earning different diseases. What is the essence of gaining so much money if you will just spend them in paying your hospital bills? What is the significance of becoming rich if you will only die soonest? Greediness makes people sick. This is because greedy people overwork and abuse their selves just to grab everything they can see. Lies make people stressed. This is because liars are not free and always have sleepless nights. Also, proud persons don’t have comfort. This is because they can’t do everything they need to do because of fear in losing their pride. In other words, what behind the sickness and wickedness of all people, especially the businessmen and entrepreneurs, are evils that are already residing in their hearts. Read more

How to become rich and have a long life?

I’ve been busy for the past few days reading the Bible and searching for wisdom and understanding from God. The holy scriptures are the greatest book and the no. 1 most published book of all time having been published for more than 6 billion copies worldwide. But beyond its popularity, the Bible is a book of truth for Christians and what makes it the greatest book for me is God’s incapability to lie. His impossibility to lie makes the scriptures veracious and reliable. I know atheists around the world will again become antagonists on this. If you are one of them and you don’t want to believe it, you may leave now please. This is not the right article for you because God’s wisdom will not be understood by the unbelievers.

But for the faithful one, behold for the glory and grace of God. He wants you and He wants us to be rich and have a long life. Please read and accept God’s wisdom with all your heart. Read more

Business Bible Verses: Do Not Worry About Your Life (Matthew 6:25-27)

Every one of us has his own worries. Whether we are financially poor or living in wealth and fortune, worries doesn’t seem to leave us. Losing our business, our money, family, job, youth and or fame are some of the many worries that we face in our ordinary days. Worries are emotional and mental reactions in which a person feel and think anxious or concerned about an actual or imagined issue. This may include personal issues such as health, finances, careers and relationships. Broader issues such as environmental pollution, social and technological changes and spiritual revolution also add to people’s worries. Moderate and short-lived worries may cause positive effects on a person by giving him precautions and making him an aware and discrete person (e.g., installing security alarms, buying fire insurance and hiring financial and Information System auditors). But in most cases, occurrence of worries to people becomes destructive rather than preventive or directive. Persistent worries can cause heart attacks, high blood pressure, ulcers, gastrointestinal problems, respiratory problems and hypertension. Remember that a healthy body means a healthy mind and a healthy mind means a healthy body. Read more
