Serious joke on attitude

Another edited post ..

Did you hear about the Nigerian widow who died and police discovered 27 billion $ in her mansion.. she was depressed and very unhappy and finally killed himself ... and the suicide note said..she was sick and tired of offering people money..and no one came and took it..no one believed her..i am sure she must have offered you no less than a 100 million dollars and you ignored it ... well that's that.. i could give the story a spiritual twist and say Gods grace is like that and we don't receive it because of the same attitude.. but nah..i wont say that..that's just too much of a cliche.. have a good day all..

The True Measure of a Technology Leader - Whats a CIO !

What is the true measure of a CIO or a technology leader? Is it simply the number of conferences attended, or the events organized under their name? Or is it something deeper — something more enduring? Did you deliver a keynote that mattered? Did you bring forward a unique perspective, rooted in experience, built through original thought and tested under fire?

The Hidden Risks of "Long Term Contracts" and How Modern Enterprises Can Protect Themselves - A Perspective from a Global CIO Long term contracts promise stability and predictability.

Awareness and Being Mindful of Our ‘State’

Awareness and Being Mindful of Our ‘State’ There’s a quiet skill that shapes every moment of our lives, though we often miss it in the rush: being aware of our state. Our state—our emotional, mental, and physical condition—is like the invisible atmosphere around us. It colors how we see the world, how we act, and how we react. Stress, anxiety, excitement, fear, calm—each shifts us into a different gear. Sometimes we’re flying. Other times we’re frozen. Learning to become aware of our state, and responding to it with mindfulness, is not about controlling everything we feel. It’s about knowing where we are internally—and choosing the best way to use it. Stress and Anxiety: Common but not identical We’ve all felt stress. We’ve all been anxious. But the experiences, the triggers, the intensity, and the solutions—those are uniquely ours. For one person, public speaking may send the heart racing uncontrollably. For another, a tight deadline may feel like a thrilling game. T...
