• Daily Insights [Edel O'Mahony] | 04-02-12

  Fear is the conditioned response...
  Which keeps you
  In subservience
  In living other's
  Life experiences
  In control
  Fear will only attracted
  Experiences to you
  That keep you
  Fearful
  And away from
  Abundance
  You move away
  From fear
  When you move
  Your focus
  From living in reaction
  To focus on
  Your desires and vision
  To believing in
  And living by
  Your values
  In knowing you
  Are worthy
  To be, do or have
  Everything you choose
  To create
  Belief in and love for YOU
  Breaks the chains of fear.

• Challenging TImes and Guardian Angels [Emily McMorran] | 04-02-12

  Have you ever had a near death experience?
  
  For my part, I've had several! All on the Road! The last one was on Sunday evening - hadn't had any for a while (thank goodness) and the last major one was in 1995 on the M20, when I aqua-planed on some slick on the motorway in fine rain weather.
  
  I had been travelling along at 50 miles an hour in the outside lane to avoid everyone else and keep out of the way; it was early on a Saturday morning and I was travelling up from Charing in Kent, having seen some friends. I was, ironically considering what happened next, travelling up to Sevenoaks to see my then Physiotherapist.
  

• HR people and small business [Mike Morrison] | 04-02-12

  HR people and small business

  
  This graphic I discovered has some interesting points - but I am not convinces about the must have 1:50 ratio. This will all depend on the nature of your business, what your staff turnover is like, and most importantly what you want/ need the HR people to do that managers cannot do as part of their day-to-day work
  
  Certainly at 50 employees it is starting to make sense to have a dedicated resource, but 2 people for 100... I am not convinced.
  
  A useful "rule of thumb" - yes - a "rule"....NO!

  Day 25 of 30
  
  After a couple of days of important diversion and context, it is time to get back to dissecting how this big old messy system of ours works, or doesn't. We have looked at stakeholders 1-4, and markets and their effects detailed in 9-11. Today we are going to cover groups 12 and 13 detailing good and bad organisations who exist at the upper end of our economic food chain.

• Your divorce is impacting your child's exam results, so take action today [Adele Theron] | 03-02-12

  
  
  Several studies have been done in the past 10 years on the impact of divorce on children, specifically with regard to their academic performance and exam results.
  
  The *studies all suggest that although the psychological damage from divorce fades for children within a few years, their academic performance continues to decline.
  
  Yongmin Sun, co-author of one of the studies and assistant professor of sociology at Ohio State University said that "The effects of divorce take two time paths," Sun said. "The damage in children's psychological well-being is already observable three years prior to divorce, but gets worse as the divorce approaches. Yet, as the event of divorce recedes, the detrimental effect becomes smaller, indicating a recovery in children's psychological well-being after the divorce. Test scores, however, continue to decline."
  
  Why does this happen?
  

• Streamlining technology [Julia McDaid] | 03-02-12

  I have been contemplating getting a dual SIM phone for a while. One less item for the handbag!
  
  Whilst none of the networks recommend them, they are readily available to buy. Some are even from known big names.....
  
  Does anyone have any experience of using one, or any recommendations as this is something that I want to implement within the next couple of months. I'm sure I can easily cover the cost by recycling the phones it will replace.

• The last hippie [Ulla Sarja] | 03-02-12

  In the 60's Greg H was a young man. 1967, The Summer of Love, he started using drugs, dropped out of school and joined the East Village drug culture. Later he stopped using drugs and became a member of the Hare Christna, the Cristhna Consciousness, like so many others during that time. 1971 he was sent from Brooklyn to the temple in New Orleans, he was "the Holy One."
  
  His parents had met him once in a while but not regularly. At this time, his vision get worse but it was explained in a spiritual way, and he often sat silently, as if he was in a trance, with strange facial expressions, smiling. His parents became worried and wanted to see their son and when they finally met him they were shocked. He just repeated "idiotic phrases" and had a stupid smile on your face (his father told it), singing small songs. He had grown fat and he was totally blind.
