Hot Gossip!

Gossip is like a fired bullet. Once you hear the sound, you can't take it back.

How many times have you found your self hating some one or really despising their guts, but when you really thing about it that person as never done any thing to you, we can even take it further to say you and that person has never had any interaction before.

But why is this? How can you hate or despise some one that you have never talked to before? Usually if we should tract the origin of our ill feelings towards a person, place or thing it always comes from some one else and they usually get it from some else.   

If one wants to accomplish great things in life one has to practice maturity. Maturity

Means not getting entangled in unimportant things like petty talk and bad-mouthing other people, what's the Difference between gossiping and cutting one to pieces? There is none. The definition for gossip is (to talk idly, especially about the affairs of others) it does not take a rocket scientist figure out that means you are heading no where.

“Give so much of your time to the improvement of your self that you have no time to criticize or slander others” by Jim rohn.

Remember, people who gossip with you also gossip about you in your absence.

Gossiping and lying are closely related. A gossip listens in haste and repeats at leisure.

A gossip never minds his own business because he neither has a mind nor a business. A gossip is more concerned about what he overhears than what he hears. Gossip is the art of saying nothing in a way that leaves nothing unsaid.

Someone said it well: "Small people talk about other people, mediocre people talk about

Things and great people talk about ideas."

Gossip can lead to slander and defamation of character. People who listen to gossip are

as guilty as those who do the gossiping.

Gossip has no respect for justice. It breaks hearts, it ruins lives, it is cunning and

Malicious. It victimizes the helpless. Gossip is hard to track down because it has no face

Or name. It tarnishes reputations, wrecks marriages, ruins careers, makes the innocent cry, causes heartaches and sleepless nights. The next time you indulge in gossip, ask yourself is it worth it?

There was a story about a young fellow who went about town slandering the town's wise man. One day, he went to the wise man's home and asked for forgiveness. The wise man, realizing that this man had not internalized the gravity of his actions told him that he would forgive him on one condition: that he go home, take a feather pillow from his house, cut it up, and scatter the feathers to the wind. After he had done so, he should then return to the wise man's house.

Though puzzled by this strange request, the young man was happy to be let off with so easy a penance. He quickly cut up the pillow, scattered the feathers, and returned to the house.

“Am I now forgiven?” he asked.

“Just one more thing,” the wise man said. “Go now and gather up all the feathers.”

“But that's impossible. The wind has already scattered them.”

“Precisely,” he answered. “And though you may truly wish to correct the evil you have done, it is as impossible to repair the damage done by your words as it is to recover the feathers. Your words are out there in the marketplace, spreading hate, even as we speak.”

Refrain from indulging in gossip. Remember, small talk comes out of big mouths when you discus other peoples business you motivate them to become a better person and while you build them up your tearing down your self.

The 80/20 Rule

I believe success could have come much sooner in my life had I known then what I know now, I am much older and wiser now, But sometimes I wish that I had known some of things I have learned over the last few years a bit earlier. That perhaps there had been a self-improvement class in school. And in some ways there probably was.

But I highly doubt it though, because there is no way that a teacher could have been sharing life transforming information and I didn't here it are don't remember right, right? Well if there was I sure didn't get that class so I had to be stuck in the struggle lane of the crowded high way of life.

you see life is often like a math problem because we don't know the correct formula we often struggle to find ways to make our life a little simpler, you were probably just like me, you find your self busy doing everything but getting nothing done well at lease the important things, now that I know this is the 80/20 rule I can easily evaluate the situation and focus my efforts a be more efficient, but before that it was like pushing water up an hill with a straw. 

So what is that 80/20 rule? This is one of the best ways to make better use of your time. The 80/20 rule also known as The Pareto Principle basically says that 80 percent of the value you will receive will come from 20 percent of your activities.

So in essence a greater portion of your accomplishment will come from a lesser portion  of your endeavors, can you imagine the amount of time I wasted all these years not knowing this I could have spare my self  at lease five years of hardship if some one had thought me the 80/20 rule.

To be effective you probably need some kind of time management-system. It might be something really simple, like using the 80/20-rule at the beginning of each day. The 80/20 rule says that you´ll get 80 percent of your results from only 20 percent of your tasks and activities. So you need to focus most of your energy on those few important tasks to be effective.

When you have prioritized using this rule just write down the top 3 most important things you need to do that day. Then, from the top, start doing them. Even if you just get one of the things done, you have still done the most important thing you could do today. You may perhaps prefer some other system, such as GTD. But however you organize your work it's still of highest priority to find the most important tasks so you don't spend days, weeks or months doing busywork that isn't that essential anyway. Just getting things done faster isn't that useful if the things you get done are unimportant to you.

So a lot of what you do is probably not as useful or even necessary to do as you may think. You can just drop or vastly decrease the time you spend on a whole bunch of things and if you do that you will have more time and energy to spend on those things that really brings you value, happiness and fulfillment.
