Two Cups of Coffee.....

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,
when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the
mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee...

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large, empty mayonnaise jar
and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar.
He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full.

They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full.

The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and
poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty
space between the sand. The students laughed.

'Now,' said the professor, as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things; your family, your children, your health, your friends, and your favorite passions; things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, and your car. The sand is everything else; the small stuff.

If you put the sand into the jar first, he continued, there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.

The same goes for life: If you spend all your time and energy on the small Stuff.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out to dinner.
Play another 18 holes of golf. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first; the Things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.'

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.

The professor smiled. 'I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.'

10 things to learn from Japan

1.      THE CALM
Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.

2.      THE DIGNITY
Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.

3.      THE ABILITY
The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn’t fall.

4.      THE GRACE
People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.

5.      THE ORDER
No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.

6.      THE SACRIFICE
Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?

7.      THE TENDERNESS
Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak

8.      THE TRAINING
The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.

9.      THE MEDIA
They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage.

10.  THE CONSCIENCE
When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly
Pass this to everyone, at least the educated ones will follow...

Materialistic!!!!......very good

A very successful Businessman parked his brand new Porsche Car at the front of the office, ready to show it off to his colleagues .
As he got out, a truck came along too close to the kerb and completely tore off the driver's door. Fortunately, a cop in a police car was close enough to see the accident and pulled up behind the Porsche , his lights flashing.
But, before the cop had a chance to ask any questions, the Businessman started screaming hysterically about how his Porsche , which he had just picked up the day before, was now completely ruined and would never be the same, no matter how hard the body shop tries to make it new again.
After the Businessman finally wound down from his rant, the cop shook his head in disgust and disbelief. 'I can't believe how materialistic you people are,' he said.
'You are so focused on your possessions that you neglect the most important things in life.'
'How can you say such a thing?' asked the Businessman.
The cop replied, 'Don't you even realize that your left arm is missing? It got ripped off when the truck hit you!!!'

'OH, MY GOD!' he screamed & finally said----

Little girl on a plane Joke

A Georgia Congressman was seated next to a little girl on the  airplane leaving from Atlanta when he turned to her and said, 'Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.'


The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed  it slowly and said to the total stranger, 'What would you  like to talk about?'


'Oh, I don't know,' said the southern congressman. 'How about global warming or universal health care', and he smiles smugly.


OK, ' she said. 'Those could be  interesting topics.. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried  grass. Why do you suppose that is?'
 

The southern legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl's  intelligence, thinks about it and says, 'Hmmm, I have no idea.'
 

To which the little girl replies, 'Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming or universal health care when you don't know shit?

OBSERVATION...VERY NECESSARY FOR EVERYONE...

1st year students of MBBS were attending their 1st anatomy class.
They all gathered around the surgery table with a real dead dog.
The Professor started class by telling two important qualities as a Doctor.
The 1st is that NEVER BE DISGUSTED FOR ANYTHING ABOUT BODY,
e.g. He inserted his finger in dog's mouth & on drawing back tasted it in his own mouth.

Then he said them to do the same.
The students hesitated for several minutes.
But eventually everyone inserted their fingers in dog's mouth & then tasted it.

When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and said:
The most important 2nd quality is OBSERVATION, I inserted my Middle finger but tasted the Index finger.
Now learn to pay attention.

30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)

30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)
"Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some


five balls in the air. You name them - Work, Family, Health, Friends and

Spirit and you're keeping all of these in the Air.

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you

drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four Balls - Family, Health, Friends and

Spirit - are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they

will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even
shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand

that and strive for it."


WORK EFFICIENTLY DURING OFFICE HOURS AND

LEAVE ON TIME. GIVE THE REQUIRED TIME TO YOUR FAMILY,

FRIENDS & HAVE PROPER REST.
