The Twelve Principles of Personal Leadership
Principle #12 - Embracing Spirituality - Part 2
by Greg L. Thomas
There is one definite thing that believers in God and atheists have in common. They both believe in something they can’t prove by scientific methods. We cannot prove or disprove the exist of a Supreme Being by scientific analysis. People who believe in God have faith in a higher power, and atheists have faith in unplanned randomness. One belief system inspires individuals to attain phenomenal achievements while personally facing depravation, pain or death. The other belief system accepts that life is meaningless and whatever we do is ultimately irrelevant or the result of blind chance.
Sadly, western civilization today has abandoned its spiritual roots and has now morphed into a post-Christian culture. By using the phrase post-Christian… I do not mean to imply that Western culture was ever near perfect, or that it even lived up to its Judeo-Christian values! However, for almost 2000 years Western civilization at least claimed to be centered on the moral standards revealed in the Hebrew and Greek scriptures.

Achieving Peak Performance: How to Keep a Positive Attitude Even If You're On Your Last String
by Dr. Alan Zimmerman
The great violinist Paganini was performing before a most distinguished audience. Suddenly, one of his violin strings snapped. The audience gasped. But the master musician continued unruffled to play on the three remaining strings.
Snap! A second string broke.
Then, with a sharp crack, a third string broke!
For a brief moment, the artist stopped, raised his famous Stradivarius violin high, and with one hand announced, "One string -- and Paganini."
With outstanding skill, he finished the selection on a single string. His performance was flawless, and the audience gave him a tumultuous standing ovation.
There will be times in your life when one string after another will snap. And you will go through circumstances that might tempt you to give up. But if you maintain a positive attitude, you won’t allow yourself give up. Read More

Ten Career Skills to Keep You Employable in the 21st Century
by Karla Brandau, CSP
Most people drive through life looking in their rearview mirror and judging the future by the past. They have a really good view of where they have been and mistakenly think the future will be similar to the past as they make decisions based on their previous experiences. Even though past experience gives a base for the future, there are many employability factors to take into account as you plan to grab one of the best jobs in 2010 and beyond.
The future work world will be even more global. If your job is not one that requires you to physically be in one place, i.e. serving food, washing windows and stocking grocery shelves, you will be competing with bright and hungry workers in India, China, Korea and other developing nations around the globe.
