This week I worked 4o hours plus 3 hours overtime. We are a little short-handed at work and as team leader I am stepping up to keep things going and to provide extra support. Leadership sometimes requires that you whatever it takes to meet the demands of the business you are in.
Now the weekend is here and there are some good things planned. Right now on Friday night I am just happy to be home, chilling out and having a relaxing evening. Man I am tired though.
Rumors are true…It’s Monday, although pretending it isn’t would be nice. Coffee is calling me though. Have a great day good people.
Each year the International Day of Peace is observed around the world on 21 September. The General Assembly has declared this as a day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations and peoples.
The Day’s theme for 2016 is “The Sustainable Development Goals: Building Blocks for Peace.”
My friends lets resolve to spend our lives seeking peace and love. We must reject violence, racism, bias, homophobia and hate. Our world is a fragile place where we all live together on the same planet. It must start in our hearts and spill out into our communities. It’s time to build bridges of hope and reconciliation to make our world a better place. For more information visit the United Nations page at International Day of Peace.
Welcome to Friday everyone. Let’s have a great day. Rock on!
To make anything happen when you are short on resources requires ingenuity and team work. I have been reminded of how you have to inspire others and to remain positive when things are not optimal in the situation you are in. For many the reaction when you are behind the eight ball is to panic but you can’t do that. Cooler heads will always prevail.
You have to be a little fearless and experimental to get through the obstacles of the moment. Now it’s OK to be a little afraid as long as you don’t show those cards to anyone. Confidence is a significant asset too (something I am working on) but most importantly keeping your focus on the task at hand can lead to good things. Always keep your chin up your eyes looking forward and find your motivation to move forward.
For those of you who are connected on WordPress, Twitter, Facebook and other social networks please know that it’s American football season. Tomorrow begins the National Football League season while college/university and high school games have been underway for a couple of weeks. Some of you won’t fully understand what is going on considering European and American versions of football are plenty different. Know that all of football will be over in February when Super Bowl 51 takes place. It’s one of the most beloved sports in the USA and if you want to know more just ask. Thanks!
