The ladder of greatness (review)

-

There is a ladder of greatness you must climb before you get to the top. You must climb this ladder to the top with God's help. Every human being has the seed of greatness in him. But you must understand the ladder of greatness and climb its rungs step by step, from the first rung to the top.
The steps on the ladder are listed below:
  1. Seek the Lord: you cannot achieve greatness without God; He is the author of greatness. As we mentioned above, your greatness comes only from Him and nobody else. He has already planned for your greatness ever before you were born. This will help you to know His plan and purpose for your life.
  2. Set the limit: setting the limit or goal of what you want to achieve in life gives you focus and direction. It gives you a sense of purpose. So, write down your goals, draw an action plan on how to reach it, and stick to that plan.
  3. Strengthen your life: don't allow criticisms or negative comments stop you from getting to the top. Be strong-minded and courageous to ward off opposition and challenges like; disappointment, delay, distress, discouragement, Devil, and doubt.
  4. Shun laziness: the easiest way to shun laziness is to be diligent in whatever you do (Eccl.9v10). Learn from the ants (Prov.6v6-11). They are active, noble, industrious, steadfast and intelligent.
  5. Stretch the limit: this has to do with extending your goals beyond what you have previously set and achieved. Widen your expectation. This will set you a new and higher level, and make you a greater champion.
  6. Shine as light: as you climb the rungs of the ladder of greatness, you must be careful not to neglect your spiritual life. Make sure you are making a spiritual progress and your life is radiating the glory of God (Matt.5v16). Strength comes from the Lord, therefore, when you are weak and can't climb further look up to God and ask Him to strengthen you. He will grant your request and support you to the top.

Make Your Resume A Breath of Fresh Air

 As a job seeker, it’s easy to see hiring managers as big, bad obstacles that need to be overcome. They’re the gatekeepers, after all. But, this kind of thinking actually leads to weaker job applications. Think about it this way: Hiring managers read a ton of resumes —to the point at which their eyes cross. More importantly, hiring managers are just people. With this in mind, the only thing you really need to do to stand out is to have the one resume that actually lets them breathe a sigh of relief during this painful process. Here are simple things you can do. Make the First Thing on Your Resume Immediately Relevant There’s nothing worse for a hiring manager than having to dig through a resume to find what, exactly, an applicant’s relevant experience entails. Don’t make this harder than it needs to be for the person who will be reading your resume, and make sure the first thing on your resume is something you know he or she wants. Are you applying to a sales position? Tit...

Achieving Mutual Gain in any Negotiation

-

When the parties in a negotiation are committed to a position, they feel that moving from that position is a failure. Instead, the focus should be given to their purposes. To achieve mutual gain, focus should be given on interests, rather than positions. An environment of respect and discipline should be prevalent between both the parties. For example, in a school, one party favours uniforms, the other opposes it. The reasons for the first party to support uniforms is to avoid circumstances where students wear casuals, because it may give rise to an act of bullying where a person or group may act hostile towards each other regarding their individual style.  The second party is against the use of uniforms because wearing a uniform has its own drawbacks. It makes students easily distinguishable to outsiders. It might even cause financial issues for guardians with limited income. In such a case, the solution is to allow students to dress according to a specific dress code. ...

How long should my resume be?” is one of the most often asked questions about resumes. Lately, job seekers were advised that a resume should not exceed one page. Those who broke this golden rule were destined for the circular file. Times have changed, and thus has the criteria for resume length.
