Laziness

posted by ryan

Laziness is the lack of desire to expand effort. It is to appear sluggish, slow moving, resistant to work.

It is a psychological problem that manifests itself in our own mind. By repeating telling ourselves that we are lazy, one day you will notice that you will tell others yourself and confirm yourself from your own mouth that you’re a lazy bone thus pushing and avoid any job or work which can be a hassle.

Laziness derives from the word lazy, but there’s a slight critical difference between these two words which dictionary and schools don’t talk about.

Laziness is a problem while being lazy is a catalyst to speed up productivity and efficiency at work for finding shortcuts. Once you start working, you will realize the difference. A shortcut is needed to reduce time, effort and to increase profits for minimal effort made.

People who practice laziness, will have a harder difficult lives and living in a environment filled with problems created by their own laziness.

People who are lazy are making lots of money. Look at your employment, do they do the work themselves or do they pass or divide their workload to the group to minimize the time spent on a project. Just do a simple comparison, is it easier for a group of people to complete a project or just a individual to complete a project? When workload is spread out, the workload decreases and thus profits are made in the process.

Another example will be for the sales people. Are the people bring in sales for companies and allow the business to profit earning more or is the employees doing the administrative work earning more? Ask and you will notice the difference. People who bring in the bacon and pass the job or work to others are earning more money, while the doers are making just average income doing not as productive things as compared to bringing in profits for the company. Nevertheless, administrative employees are just as important, if not the job or work will not get done if nobody takes up the job.

To be wealthy and successful, you first have to learn to become a lazy person finding shortcuts without reducing the profit margin or to increase any problems comprise safety at work.

Once you find or have created the blueprint, you have found yourself a winning formula which can bring you wealth and it all starts from the mind, put on your thinking cap. It is like selling a franchise business, you hold the master key, you just sell your franchise model to investors who want profits from the business, collecting royalties from every investor who is using your system.

To master the art of being lazy without having laziness in your mind is an art, a skill that must be learned and applied correctly and it all starts with your mind. So stop being a lazy bone and start thinking.

Management

posted by ryan

Relationship is an association of two or more people which is based on different purpose and bonding. It may be based on for business interactions, social commitments, interpersonal or intimate relationship.

Different purpose of relationship requires different methods of handling, and understanding how it works is the key to solving the root of the problems should it surface.

The root and basics of relationship management is to look at the difference between how a man and a woman handle relationship.

There is a common saying “Men can forget but they cannot forgive. Women can forgive but they cannot forget.”

During a courtship, there is both positive and negative behavior which we can learn from relationship. Relationship management is just like a business and it requires time, effort, commitment and collaboration from both parties to work.

In the process of the courtship, it is sweet, once the courtship is over and grow into a relationship before it evolve into a either a break-up or marriage followed by everlasting love if not separation followed by divorce.

The spectrum of transition of relationship is all about business transaction these days due to the change in culture and influences. Romance; love; commitment; responsibility; accountability ; management; operations; protection; expansion.  It is all about the cycle before it duplicates itself or it dies off.

Romance is sweet like an appetizer, a small dish to stimulate a desire for more.  It can be of in all flavors depending on the person’s character and personality. It is the selection of which appetizer is suitable for you like choosing a partner.

Once you take your pick, you start to taste it, the taste lingers in your mouth, either your taste buds accept it if not reject it. If you accept it, it starts to go inside, making you hungry wanting more increasing your appetite. It is the courtship whereby you want to consume it, but it just does not want you to know what the next dish is. With anticipation, the desire grows, like in a courtship, from hands to shoulders to waist, hips, kissing and other intimate actions translating romance into love.

Love is when you start to have the taste of the dish, and you ask for more, wanting the next dish to be served fast. Short light kiss becomes French-kissing and it proceeds further with hands into the picture. Like you start off with different breads, applying either butter or jam just simply hands and or with just a butter knife. As you progress, you start using tools to consume more and the tools get more, which is when intimacy increases and clothes start dropping piece by piece.

Commitment is when the main course get served, finally you see the dish in front of you, salivating, starts drooling and you can’t wait to consume the main dish. It is whereby clothes are completely removed; all you see in front of you is the naked body. Alluring, sexy with a sense of curiosity of how it will be like.

With a slice of cut on the meat, you put it into your mouth, its equivalent to making a commitment, a promise to your partner that you will stay by his/her side. Soon as you consume the main dish, you start to fell the slight fullness in your stomach. As foreplay moved into intercourse, the promise is made and commitment sets in.

Having finished the main course, the rest of the course can be predicted, with the delicious dish already served, whatever dish coming up next is just lighter in flavor then the main course which was just finished. Like after the intercourse, ejaculation sets in, satisfaction in both parties. The customer decides to stay till the end of the course, while the cook is happy that the customer enjoyed the main course.

With that, responsibility takes places. You will start discussing how nice the dish was previously, and perhaps next time your choice of dishes if you were to come back again. Similarly like how ladies like to hug their partners after it, lying on their partner’s chest or in the arms, looking into the eyes, smiling happily, chatting about the feelings during the intimate physical contact.

Accountability sets in soon after, like the dessert that’s coming up next, it can be of either hot or cold dessert to tantalize your taste buds usually ending with sweet desserts so the customer will come back for more. Like a happy couple resting in the comfort of each other, either one waking up slightly earlier to prepare breakfast for the other partner, leaving sweet memories and closing the chapter leaving wonderful and pleasant memories, allowing the couple to make plans for marriage.

Management is the bills of the whole set breakfast/lunch/dinner. Settling the bills, checking if the bill is right for any overcharging like a couple in bliss, planning for the next session with budgeting involved now.

Budgeting includes the promise and if the partner is responsible for his/her actions before a second and three set meal can be consumed together. Discussed wisely, the budget only gets sweet and larger with more commitments and responsibilities like choice of restaurant, if want to upgrade to a higher class restaurant paying for the service and ambiance similarly to discussion of settling down for a family.

Operations is how the restaurant runs the after sales service, the methods which they will offer to give you reasons to patronize the restaurant or their service again. It is when the partner shows his/her attention, care and concern for each other to make it work and have the relationship running smoothly without any food scraps getting stuck in between the teeth.

Protection is whereby restaurants come up with new dishes, promotions to attract and retain their valued customers. This is when business rivals surface allowing the customers to chance to taste other recipes and dishes. This will be when partners come up with new tricks such as new image, choice of clothes, some teasing, and new positions and change of environment to entice their own partners to stay faithful and loyal to each other.

Expansion is when the business is doing well; restaurant owner decides to open another outlet via franchise model duplicating their success. It is whereby both partners planting and wants seeds to be planted in the farmlands. For males, it’s to get the female pregnant, for females, it is to get married and the cycle continues, this time on the baby inside the womb.

Transactions are happening everyday, every second, how you run the business and how much you profit depends on you and nobody else. Learn management skills, it is the skill that is applicable to anything and everything.

Have a profitable business and a happy marriage. =)

Leverage

posted by ryan

Leverage is the use of a lever for advantage over something by using lesser effort. It is to use a small initial investment to gain a high advantage in relation to one’s investment, and to reduce one’s own liability for any loss. It is creates a win-win situation for both parties. If it’s a group investment, it will benefit all of the participants and getting a fair compensation at both sides.

Wealthy people always leverage do helping their partners to earn more wealth together, but the rich people always and only will use people exploiting them for maximal advantage for their person gains.

To succeed and generate wealth instead of money, hang around and get to network with people who are most willing to help people who are willing to be help. Gentle reminder, to succeed and hang around with such people, if you have any hidden agenda or want to steal their business secrets and strategies, you will be plucked out before you know it, people especially them have high level of sensitivity when it comes to deciding who to work with and select at business partners.

Even I thanks to years of exploring and doing direct sales have acquired the high level filtering process of choosing people, what more can you expect from people who have being there, done that?

To have win-win situation, don’t doubt with people who you work with. If you doubt them, don’t bother to even try working with them.

Seek to form alliance and network with people who will guide and lead you by hand and not to exploit and make use of one another cutting and killing each other.

用人不疑,疑人不用。

Don’t doubt a person you’re working with, if you must doubt, don’t work with such people.
