” Obama said. “Terrible things happen across the globe, and it is beyond our means to right every wrong”.

My comments:

Especially when it comes to the worst human rights violations by Israel and India, the government of the so called mighty United States, is absolutely helpless..!

An extract from the Times of India report:

“President Barack Obama says the United States cannot be the world’s policeman, but he adds that it can save Syrian children from being gassed to death.”

Mr. President of the USA, who will save from the drone death, the Pakistani children? Or there is a difference of death from drones and gas?

Indian city in UP province, Muzaffarnagar Roits toll reached 38 : Silence of Pakistani government, to say the least is dismal..!

Be a Work-Life Role Model

Everyone struggles to find the right balance between work and life. As a manager, how you personally handle this challenge influences your team members. They are looking to you for signs of what they can and should do. Here is how you can set a good example:

Be open. Talk candidly about your own challenges and strategies for fitting together your work, family, and personal life. Let your employees see you as more than just a person who works.

Appreciate others as whole people. Respect the fact that everyone you work with has a life beyond work. Encourage people to talk about their non-work activities with colleagues.

Be willing to experiment. Ask people about what would help improve their ability to achieve work results while also increasing their well-being beyond work. When employees are involved in designing and implementing solutions, they’re more committed to making them work.
