HOW TO GET FASTER RESULTS : BE EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT

Happy day to everyone of you,

In today's rapidly changing world, it is a phenomena for almost everyone, if not everyone, to give excuse for not having enough time to do what they want. The reason we don’t recognize it as problematic is because we often think it is unchangeable or we take it for granted like the frog which does not jump out of the pot even though the heat is increasing.  We’re just get used to it. Let us be honest about it. Is it a real issue or are we not efficient? Worse still, are we blaming time to cover up our own weaknesses? Whatsoever the real reason is, it will never go away if we leave it unattempted.


However, God is fair and allocates 24 hours a day to each and everyone of us. If you have insufficient time , you need to review your situation seriously and take appropriate action to overcome it before it gets worse. To achieve this, you need to find better, efficient and more effective means  to perform  your daily tasks. If not, these tasks will pile up and you will it find more and more stressful as your Do Lists gets longer. I am sure no one wants to be caught in such a situation because we have enough stress. Do not forget that fatigue and stress are the biggest hazards of modern life, as they may lead to heart attack.


In this connection, I want to share some of the tips, from my own personal experience, which I find useful and I hope they will be useful  also to you. To simplify, I have listed  them in point form, as below:-


1. System
Try to establish an orderly system, which is work friendly and easy for you to retrieve your information speedily. No doubt there is more work initially, but it pays handsomely at the later stage. Try it out and you will be surprised at the outcome.


Do take note that your energy has an inverse relationship to the accumulation of stuff you do not need. The more unwanted, unused and unneeded stuff you have cluttering your life, the less energy you will have. Believe it or not the condition of your desk; office and living space will reflect  what is going on in your mind. If you take time to organize it , you will actually be freeing up a lot of  space in your mind, hence increasing your energy. .




2. Be precise
Make it a point to make your statement precise. I realize that it is not easy, therefore we need to improve the skill constantly. Most of the time, I find that lots of time are wasted as a result of not sending the message precisely.


3. Making use of the most effective mode of communication
Try to make it a habit to use the most effective mode of communication such as email especially if you have to send the same message to many people.. You will be surprised at its outcome as compared to other verbal means .


4. Do Lists
Make it a point to record down the tasks you need to perform. Then schedule them according to their  priority. In this manner, you  tend to be more efficient and effective.


5. Make use of your idling time
God is fair and has  given everyone 24 hours. Don't forget that everyone of us have idle time. Schedule creative work at these hours.


6. Do more than one thing at a time
You can do more than one thing at a time that is you can multi-task. The best example is that you can brush your teeth while making a long call at your toilet bowl.


7. Plan your daily tasks in advance
 Lots of time can be  saved if there are proper planning so that the tasks can be carried in the most efficient way.


8. Do not quit
Most of the time, we are defeated because we have given up. As such, we need to have faith in whatever we are doing and also to constantly reminding ourselves that we can do it.


9. Patience
You need to have patience.  When we faced problems then  only can we learnt to be patient.


10. Leave it and come back to it later

Leave it for a while and do something else. Then you may have  inspiration to resume your work with new and fresh idea/interest.


11 Do not push yourself unnecessary
Deadline is good, but you need to follow your heart so as to produce a masterpiece.  Be flexible is the key.


12. Do not be too anxious
Do not worry unnecessary, but respond to it. By reacting to it, you will make the thing worse and eventually you  may need to spend more time to rectify it. Here, you may use the 90/10 rule.


13. Think positive
When you think positive, everything will turn out more rosy and pleasant. You \will rest assure  that you will  have much higher productivity. If your health and attitude and body and mind are all aligned in the right way, there’s nothing else for you to do but to feel energized. It’s the natural “side-effect” of a healthy life– it just comes with the territory.


14. Work in groups
It is undeniable that everyone of us has his own talent and skill. By using the strength of each and every member of the group, it will yield more.


15. Find your own work rhythm.
A lot of creative work can be done at odd times and places. So, schedule your work accordingly to your own work rhythm


The great Canadian physician Sir William Osler; a teacher, medical writer and medical practitioner, set aside only 15 minutes every night to compile an annotated bibliography of his huge library. His ambitious Bibliotheca Osleriana contained 7787 entries when he died.


The above example is a good illustration that when our “qi” (energy) is at optimal levels and flowing smoothly, we’re ready to take on the world- spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically


16. Always look out for more efficient and effective way of doing things
 Constantly keep your mind open especially when you are doing certain activities which involves lots of repetition . In such instance, keep on asking yourself is there any other way to get the thing done  more efficiently and effectively.

To all loving readers and visitors,


Just take a few minutes and its worth reading.....whether you believe it or not..... 

Pls. read the contents below & share with your friends

Three types of asparagus on a shop display, with white asparagus at the back and green asparagus in the middle. The plant at the front is Ornithogalum pyrenaicum , is commonly called wild asparagus,

Several years ago, I had a man seeking asparagus for a friend who had cancer. He gave me a photocopied copy of an article,entitled, `Asparagus for cancer ' printed in Cancer News Journal, December 1979.

I will share it here, just as it was shared with me: 'I am a biochemist,and have specialized in the relation of diet to health for over 50 years.

Several years ago, I learned of the discovery of Richard R.Vensal, D.D.S. that asparagus might cure cancer. Since then, I have worked with him on his project.. We have accumulated a number of favourable case histories.
Here are a few examples:


Case No. 1,
A man with an almost hopeless case of Hodgkin's disease (cancer of the lymph glands) who was completely incapacitated.. Within 1 year of starting the asparagus therapy, his doctors were unable to detect any signs of cancer, and he was back on a schedule of strenuous exercise. 

Case No. 2,
A successful businessman 68 years old who suffered from cancer of the bladder for 16 years. After years of medical treatments,including radiation without improvement, he went on asparagus. Within 3 months, examinations revealed that his bladder tumor had disappeared and that his kidneys were normal.

Case No. 3,
A man who had lung cancer. On March 5th 1971, he was put on the operating table where they found lung cancer so widely spread that it was inoperable. The surgeon sewed him up and declared his case hopeless. On April 5th he heard about the asparagus therapy and immediately started taking it. By August, x-ray pictures revealed that all signs of the cancer had disappeared. He is back at his regular business routine. *

*Case No. 4,
A woman who was troubled for a number of years with skin cancer. She finally developed different skin cancers which were diagnosed by asking specialist as advanced. Within 3 months after starting on asparagus, her skin specialist said that her skin looked fine and nomore skin lesions. This woman reported that the asparagus therapy also cured her kidney disease, which started in 1949. She had over 10 operations for kidney stones, and was receiving government disability payments for an inoperable, terminal, kidney condition. She attributes the cure of this kidney trouble entirely to the asparagus.


I was not surprised at this result, as `The elements of Materia Medica', edited in 1854 by a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania , stated that asparagus was used as a popular remedy for kidney stones. He even referred to experiments, in 1739, on the power of asparagus in dissolving stones.

We would have other case histories but the medical establishment has interfered with our obtaining some of the records. I am therefore appealing to readers to spread this good news and help us to gather a large number of case histories that will overwhelm the medical skeptics about this unbelievably simple and natural remedy. For the treatment, asparagus should be cooked before using, and therefore canned asparagus is just as good as fresh.

I have corresponded with the two leading canners of asparagus, Giant Giant and Stokely, and I am satisfied that these brands contain no pesticides or preservatives.

* * PROCEDURE:
1) Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and store in the refrigerator.

2) Give the patient 4 full tablespoons twice daily, morning and evening.

Patients usually show some improvement in from 2-4 weeks. It can be diluted with water and used as a cold or hot drink. This suggested dosage is based on present experience, but certainly larger amounts can do no harm and may be needed in some cases.

As a biochemist I am convinced of the old saying that `what cures can prevent'. Based on this theory, my wife and I have been using asparagus puree as a beverage with our meals. We take 2 tablespoons diluted in water to suit our taste with breakfast and with dinner. I take mine hot and my wife prefers hers cold.

For years we have made it a practice to have blood surveys taken as part of our regular checkups.

The last blood survey, taken by a medical doctor who specializes in the nutritional approach to health, showed substantial improvements in all categories over the last one, and we can attribute these improvements to nothing but the asparagus drink...

As a biochemist, I have made an extensive study of all aspects of cancer, and all of the proposed cures. As a result, I am convinced that asparagus fits in better with the latest theories about cancer. Asparagus contains a good supply of protein called histones, which are believed to be active in controlling cell growth. For that reason, I believe asparagus can be said to contain a substance that I call cell growth normalizer. That accounts for its action on cancer and inacting as a general body tonic. In any event, regardless of theory, asparagus used as we suggest, is a harmless substance.

The FDA cannot prevent you from using it and it may do you much good.. It has been reported by the US National Cancer Institute, that asparagus is the highest tested food containing glutathione, which is considered one of the body's most potent anticarcinogens and antioxidants.

Please spread the news...

...the most unselfish act one can ever do is paying forward all the kindness one has received even to the most undeserved person *
All the very best

Value relationship

Happy day to everyone of you,


Let us ponder the phrase below


"Apologizing does not mean that you are wrong and the other one is right...

It simply means that you value the relationship much more than your ego ..."

Do you agree with the above statement? If not, please voice out your view. Thank you in advance.


Thanks for your time and look forward to hearing from you,
