Recognize When You’re Being Passive-Aggressive

When was the last time you didn’t share your honest opinion when asked? Or the last time you got upset with someone and didn’t let the person know why? Or maybe you procrastinated on an assignment because you didn’t see the value in it. It’s hard to recognize our own passive-aggressive behavior, but if we don’t confront it, it breeds mistrust and erodes our credibility. First, identify what drives you to be passive-aggressive. Understanding the underlying cause (maybe a fear of failure, or rejection, or conflict) allows you to address it head-on. Then be honest with yourself about what you really want: What do you truly think or really want to say? What outcome are you hoping for? Think about how to express those desires in a direct, respectful way. And finally, get input from others to see if you’re improving.

Adapted from “ Signs You’re Being Passive-Aggressive” by Muriel Maignan Wilkins.

“Before you quit, try. Before you talk, listen. Before you react, think. Before you criticize, wait. Before you move on, forgive.”

“Never forget that you are one of a kind. Never forget that if there weren’t any need for you in all your uniqueness to be on this earth, you wouldn’t be here in the first place. And never forget, no matter how overwhelming life’s challenges and problems seem to be, that one person can make a difference in the world. In fact, it is always because of one person that all the changes that matter in the world come about. So be that one person.”

—R. Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983)
Archtiect, Engineer, Inventor

In view of the recent government report that over 40% electricity bills are not paid/recovered and also the known huge gas thefts of billions of Rupees, an across the board crack down with iron hand on stealers of electricity and gas, without any discrimination, must be unleashed, so that there was NO NEED FOR INCREASE OF POWER AND GAS RATES TO PUNISH THE HONEST PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY PAYING EACH AND EVERY PENNY OF THE BILLS HONESTLY.

REPEAT DON’T PUNISH THE HONEST AND DON’T REWARD THE THIEVES BY EASY METHOD OF GENERATING REVENUE THROUGH HIKE IN TARIFFS.

PEOPLE ARE ALREADY FED UP WITH THE PRICE INCREASE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TAKING OVER OF NEW PMLN GOVERNMENT.

THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SIGN AND YOU MUST NOT ALLOW THE SUGGESTIONS WHICH WILL FORCE MASSES TO GO AGAINST YOUR GOVERNMENT.

YOU MUST NOT REPEAT MUST NOT ALLOW YOUR ADVISORS TO MAKE NAWAZ SHARIF OF MURSI IN LESS THAN A YEARS TIME.

“Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.”

Mian Nawaz Sharif hope you remember you were forewarned a year ago..!

Written on 1 October, 2013..!

For the general public, it matters the least that who rules them, but what matters them the most, is how they are ruled.

In view of the foregoing, I forewarn the Pakistani ruling elite and all the public representatives, to beware of the day, when people will welcome any other system with open hands, which will not be so cruel and tyrannical, like the current decadent system of governance.

Moreover, the Honourable Prime Minister of Pakistan, Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif Sahab (Hope you remember the solemn commitment of your government on the floor of the house that no mini budget will be coming during the year) is again reminded that, as forewarned earlier, your honour should immediately shunt out those advisors, who are hell bent to ensure that Mian Nawaz Sharif be remembered in the history of the country, as the most hated, cruel and tyrannical ruler of Pakistan, who snatched even the last piece of the dry bread from not one or two persons, but crores (minimum 11 crores) of poor masses.

السلا م علیکم
زندگی کے عنوان سے میری اک غزل
سعید قر یشی ڈلاس ٹیکساس
زندگی
اک معمہ ہے پر اسرار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
زندگی جیسے کہ اک بار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
بات بنتی ہی نہیں راز کہ کھلتا ہی نہیں
نسل آدم ہی سزاوار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
وہ تو اچھا ہے جو آ یا نہیں اس دنیا میں
او ر جو آیا ہے وہ لاچار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
مر کہ ہی جانا ہے جنت میں جنھیں جانا ہے
موت کیوں راہ کی د یوا ر ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
درد دل بانٹنے نکلو تو یہی لگتا ہے
جیسے ہر شخص ہی بےزار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
درس دیتے ہیں محبت کا اگر لوگ تو پھر
ہر کوئی د ر پۓ آ ز ا ر ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
کوئی ایسا ہے فرشتوں کو بھی جو مات کرے
دوسرا سخت گنہگار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
ہر خو شی پر رہے بیتاب یہ گرنے کے لیے
غم کہ لٹکی ہوی تلوار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
رات کیوں دن کے تعا قب میں لگی رہتی ہے
پھول کے ساتھ لگا خا ر ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
مر ے اس پیا ر کے بدلے میں جو چھم چھم برسے
ترے طعنو ں کی جو بوچھاڑ ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
حسن کو چا ھیۓ وہ بھی تو کبھی پہل کرے
صرف عاشق ہی طلبگار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
جس کو کہتی ہیں بڑ ے فخر سے قومیں غیرت
ہم نے بیچی سر بازار ہے ایسا کیوں ہے
