The paint that doesn't dry so quickly, allowing me to clean up. The hair that does what is asked. The stain that is gone after a wash.The car that goes the extra mile, when it is on empty. ...And mostly, the door that doesn't slam in my face.

Reply:The very answers to your question here attest to the fact that there really are no "little things" in life, are there? Everything is meaningful, satisfying, and precious in its own unique way. ... Unless of course, people consider children, love, wives, husbands, family, helping others, etc., "little things in life"! :-) If so, then I suppose "little things in life" should be redefined as "humongous meaningless things", like say A Big Pile of Organic Compost! ... I am afraid "linear thinking" isn't always as glorious and/or satisfying as it is made out to be. ... Great Question!

Do you get work satisfaction working abroad?
This question is especially for Indians working/living in Australia. Do you feel satisfied with the work you are doing? And do you think you are improving your leadership skills and getting chances to show your leadership skills? Or do you feel that you are stuck in a routine kind of job and your personality has become more like a submissive and polite follower rather than like an enthusiastic leader?
And do you think you could ever get a similar salary package working in India?
What has been your experience and what are your views about these issues? If possible, please give detailed answers. Thanks
Do you get work satisfaction working abroad?
The place is not a concern. Wherever we are, as long as the work is ethical and also, we are proving our excellence for the benefit of the organization that is paying us, should be giving a rewarding satisfaction. Sometimes, in the current working atmosphere, there may be parasites that attempt to jeopardize our mental tranquility by involving in dirty politics. I would say, we just need to ignore them.
I would actually recommend this tool called Todolist http://www.codeproject.com/KB/applicatio... which supports managing of our tasks effectively.
Reply:Since you have mentioned Australia I reckon you need some views on how Indians relate themselves when they work for a White. No No, do not jump to conculsions. I am not a racist. This view is shared by many Indians who have returned to India for good after one or two decades of stay abroad. Well I live and work in the Middle East. My place is not relevant. In my work I either report to or work with people of other nationality, predominantly people who cannot be labelled as "Coloured". First I will answer your questions.
Satisfaction in Job: Well it depends on whether your work is related to your specific qualification and training which you have had in India before coming abroad. As against the work atmosphere in India, if you like your work, working abroad should be enjoyable. You would hardly find petty poiltics in the office. People will not think twice before saying sorry, or thanks. Your contribution to the org. will be recognized and rewarded. But the demerit is despite your hard work, Indians are not rated highly by foreigners and if you intend to occupy the CEO's seat in the org. ,one day, forget it.
Leadership skills: This related to the above issue. Well within your work-framework you will be considered as a team leader. In fact the word team leader came to India from abroad. The usual designation is "manager". If you lead your assistants well and do your job and meet the deadlines your leadership skills should get fine tuned.
Routine - submissiveness - and politeness: Well being polite does not mean you are sub-servient. You will find CEOs of MNCs very polite. Routine work; yes. You cannot diversify so much. Unless you complete your daily agenda you will have problems with your boss. Most Indians have a feeling that they are in some way inferior to their counterparts in the West. Being meek and submissive probably emanates from the strict household discipline which is followed in most Indian homes. Indians address strangers with "Sir" when there is no need. In certain societies in India, a wife cannot mention the name of her husband even in his absence. Grown up sons do not see their father eye to eye and talk. When we go abroad we carry this feeling that to whoever you are reporting in your work is a Guru and should be held in awe. Actually we cannot blame Aussies or for that matter any white for this issue. Your white boss does not mind if you address him as Mr. so and so. Can you do it in India? Imagine going into the Chairman's room of any Indian nationalised bank and calling him as Mr. Gupta or Mr Sharma and start the conversation. For the sake of few dollars more, if Indians cringe and crawl before a foreign employer, they are not to be blamed.
Pay package: After 2000 the salary of an average Indian in whatever field he is in, has shot up. This cannot be denied. I have found an exodus of Indian executives from ME heading directly to Bombay. People who have had a long tenure abroad, are returning. Pay is good now in Bharat.
But despite all this, working abroad has its own fun. You will not find a govt., servant expecting tip for everything he does for you; you have single window system when you deal with govt. agencies which comfort is not there, or only limitedly, in India; you will not find people jumping the line in airport to check-in; you will find stranger holding the door open for you when you are holding your child; places are neat and clean (Singapore for instance); Driving is a pleasure and you will not get the feeling that all other drivers are set to exterminate you; letters sent by ordinary post reach the next day whereas in our country you get the appointment order from the Employment exchange for a post you applied when you graduated delivered to you when your son is about to join Engg., college, and the like. Yes life is good. Unless you are so homesick. In that case, even if you get a well paid job in Denmark, which is rated as the best country to live in, you will not be happy.
To close, whenever I think of returning to India, I am really scared. No not as long as parliamentarins and legislators change. Australians may not be the best bosses to work for, but in a ten point scale where one end is occupied by an Indian caste-ridden prejudiced underqualified and foul mouthed MD, and the other end by an Aussie, nothing wrong in voting in his favour.
Love all, Krish.

I hate being just the good "Worker Bee" at work. I want alot more satisfaction out of work! How do I get it?
To get satisfaction from your job you need to be happy with yourself.
I too was the good "worker bee" but I started attending college courses, seminars and doing a myriad of other things to increase my knowledge and experience.
Doing this gave me a sense of self satisfaction and showed my boss I was serious about my job and company advancement.

Why do some people get a thrill/satisfaction out of lying?
i know this one guy who likes to lie just for the sake of lying. . he doesnt even have to lie. he just lies cause he likes to.
Why do some people get a thrill/satisfaction out of lying?
I'm not a very captivating person. This is because I generally deal in that which is real and true to a fault. I don't even embellish just a little bit. Consequently, I do not get that much satisfaction in social interactions with other people.
Social interaction is a lot more fun, if you lie. Plus, the liar is usually the life of the party!
Reply:Nice legs!
He lies because it gives him a feeling of being able to get a one up on people. I lied to you and you believed it; thus, I am smarter than you for being able to trick you. This is probably the way he thinks about it. By lying to you, he feels that he can elevate himself above you.
Reply:Cos the truth is usually

Reply:Maybe it is his way of keeping everything on a level playing field.
Reply:He is insecure with his natural ordinaryness, which most of us have most of the time, and wants the benefit that the out of the ordinary statement brings to him.
Some people grow out of it, in degrees, and some never do. All you can do is confront when you suspect a lie, and risk losing the friendship of someone like this. If continuously confronted, he may back away from you, or he may change.

Reply:some people are like that.... not very good as you will never know when they are telling the truth!!!!
Reply:It is probably the rush of creation... to make people believe or consider/duel in something. Sometimes it is to avoid a long painful explanation that has no purpose or consequence. When in unimportant situations I sometimes make up some whopper for entertainment... Eventually, and rather soon, I come clean! I do it to see how much people are willing to believe. Size them up...! And to entertain myself in their amazement. Sometimes, it gets pretty crazy as I keep on pushing it(It is funnier the crazier it gets)! Mostly, it becomes a subject of conversation after I purposely come clean and say I was just messing with "them". Clearly it is nothing that would cause people harm.
Eg.
1. I once convinced someone that I, at that time a 22 years old guy, had 4 kids. Each with a different woman, and they were all friends' wives... It was incredible that it took this person so long to call me on it! My response to their affront was a resoundingly joyous "damn right it is BS! Come on, what were you thinking? Look at me! I pose it eloquently without shame!"
Posed like a friendly joke played on their expense...
2. Someone you barely know and has no personal business with you asks why are you so quiet? The truth may be that you had a bad fight with your spouse that might lead to divorce. But you say you just have a headache, or something like that. It was none of their business and made no difference at all for them, but it kept you from further explanations of your personal life when you are already disturbed by the matter!

Reply:He might have a problem and he could need professional help. I guess it would be hard to convince a liar he needs help though, they'd be lying to themselves too.
I guess I could see how lying could be fun though. I mean take a look at the definition
1.a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood.
It's like a game. Anyone who can regularly deceive someone (a good liar) is like someone who is good at chess. They basically have to out wit their opponent. I tell you a story you ask me questions about my story and I have to be one step ahead of you. Further, studies have shown that the brain works like seven times harder to tell a lie. That's probably why people do weird little things when they are lying (talking with their hands when they don't usually do or weird facial expressions or some other weird thing they don't usually do). I guess because more parts of the brain are activated at a time it could be chemical.. But, I'm not a psychologist or a Biologist or a brain surgeon so I couldn't say for sure. It does feel good to think though.
Reply:there's a saying that is really applicable in life that, "old habits die hard" that must be the reason why he lies so much. Its become so long ago that he continues to lie only for the benefit of pleasure within him. knowing that he messes with people and seeing their reaction is his own ecstasy as one might say. Its become his pasttime and it will not change unless you want it to and do something to do so.
Reply:He must not feel good of himself, to me he is insecure and wants to bring others down to his level, If he is lying bout yourself i would comfront him and tell him off. then not hang out with him and let others know he lies and maybe someday it will get back to him to realize how many ppl he has hurt with his lies.

Which career do you think is best in terms of salary and satisfaction and employebility?
Art, Psychology or Translater/Interpreter?
Which career do you think is best in terms of salary and satisfaction and employebility?
no money in art, but probably pretty fun
psychology - money to be made, but every tom, dick, and harry is trying to be a psychologist, or something related!!!
translator, interpreter - could be tough at times, but you would ALWAYS have a job and you would probably make big big money. Think about it, not alot of people in the US want to learn another language, much less the english language lol. You would always be needed in some industry!!
Reply:Cheese taster would be my pick but I see you didn't list it.. Art and Psychology aren't really careers, so by default it would be translater and interpreter. Best of luck.

What is the MOST PRACTICAL way of thinking to get the MOST SATISFACTION in LIFE?
Be specific.
What is the MOST PRACTICAL way of thinking to get the MOST SATISFACTION in LIFE?
Optimism and only optimism is the best way out for living life full of gaiety and laughter. And who is an optimist? One who always perceives glass half full is nearer to God than a pessimistic who visualizes glass half empty. The bickering of a pessimistic never stop! On the contrary... optimist always looks forward to life as a challenge... as a gift of God Almighty!
Life is not reaching the end of the journey... the journey itself is life! When Edmund Hillary reached the top of Mount Everest... he was the unhappiest man on Mother Earth. His exclaim... I have reached the end of my life... I have nowhere to go further... there is nothing higher than Mount Everest... my life shall stagnate now... he truly was disturbed on this account!
As of present... we find Bill Clinton a happier person than the present incumbent George Bush... the president of United States of America. It is all in our genes... our pattern of thinking! The cluster of positive thoughts... the most crucial asset of an optimist is what makes or mar a man! Riding on the waves of positive thinking... any human being can reach any goal of life!
Satisfaction and contentment in life are derived from happiness that comes from within. True happiness is not an asset only of rich people. The poorest of the poor may be worldly wise and happy! On the contrary... the richest of all may lead an unhappy life! Positive thinking is that ingredient in the life of all human beings that is crucial for a happy living!
It has been rightly said, "every human being is the sum total of all his thoughts at a given point of time". The difference between a king and a laborer lies in their pattern of thinking. As per the doctrine of karma... we only get what we sow... Nothing more or less! In the domain of God there are no free lunches. All is the result of a system that cannot err!
Indulging in vice one cannot expect a sunny disposition and godly thinking! Neither do mangoes grow on a guava tree! Whatever we desire out of life can be achieved by following a positive pattern of thought all the time. This is what made Bill Gates... the success story of all wise men! No successful person ever harbors thoughts of ill will about anyone whatsoever!
Harboring groveling and grousing thoughts... one falls into vice! Godly thinking leads towards a sunny disposition... a life full of satisfaction and happiness! Maintaining a positive attitude all the time is the real crux of life! Most human beings mar life by anger nor do one practice forgiveness. All human beings are born equal... the difference lies only in their thinking! More on thoughts - http://www.godrealized.org/truce_with_my...
Reply:Understanding that everything I experience and observe is only a reflection of what I am made of, or who I am, good, bad or indifferent. Only by understanding who we are and what abilities we have can we create a fulfilling experience called life.
Reply:There's nothing practical about satisfaction. You'll have to be more specific as to what satisfaction is.
Of course, I'll just say love, and I'm sure that's not specific at all to you.
Reply:Being grateful for what you have.
Reply:Think positive.
Reply:Lowering your standards to a realist level(for real)...! Understanding the limitations of life and those who live it near and far.
Focusing on the good aspects, and keeping all in perspective to the entirety of things not just a small circle of friends, a city, state, or even nation...
Example being that a cold, old pizza or any other "less than perfect" meal can be extremely satisfying if you remember there are those who watch their children starve to death... and are impotent to help themselves!

As of present... we find Bill Clinton a happier person than the present incumbent George Bush... the president of United States of America. It is all in our genes... our pattern of thinking! The cluster of positive thoughts... the most crucial asset of an optimist is what makes or mar a man! Riding on the waves of positive thinking... any human being can reach any goal of life!
Satisfaction and contentment in life are derived from happiness that comes from within. True happiness is not an asset only of rich people. The poorest of the poor may be worldly wise and happy! On the contrary... the richest of all may lead an unhappy life! Positive thinking is that ingredient in the life of all human beings that is crucial for a happy living!
It has been rightly said, "every human being is the sum total of all his thoughts at a given point of time". The difference between a king and a laborer lies in their pattern of thinking. As per the doctrine of karma... we only get what we sow... Nothing more or less! In the domain of God there are no free lunches. All is the result of a system that cannot err!
Indulging in vice one cannot expect a sunny disposition and godly thinking! Neither do mangoes grow on a guava tree! Whatever we desire out of life can be achieved by following a positive pattern of thought all the time. This is what made Bill Gates... the success story of all wise men! No successful person ever harbors thoughts of ill will about anyone whatsoever!
Harboring groveling and grousing thoughts... one falls into vice! Godly thinking leads towards a sunny disposition... a life full of satisfaction and happiness! Maintaining a positive attitude all the time is the real crux of life! Most human beings mar life by anger nor do one practice forgiveness. All human beings are born equal... the difference lies only in their thinking! More on thoughts - http://www.godrealized.org/truce_with_my...
Reply:Understanding that everything I experience and observe is only a reflection of what I am made of, or who I am, good, bad or indifferent. Only by understanding who we are and what abilities we have can we create a fulfilling experience called life.
Reply:There's nothing practical about satisfaction. You'll have to be more specific as to what satisfaction is.
Of course, I'll just say love, and I'm sure that's not specific at all to you.
Reply:Being grateful for what you have.
Reply:Think positive.
Reply:Lowering your standards to a realist level(for real)...! Understanding the limitations of life and those who live it near and far.
Focusing on the good aspects, and keeping all in perspective to the entirety of things not just a small circle of friends, a city, state, or even nation...
Example being that a cold, old pizza or any other "less than perfect" meal can be extremely satisfying if you remember there are those who watch their children starve to death... and are impotent to help themselves!
Reply:Two not so simple things stemming from one word:
Love others!
and(the hard part)

Reply:Think logically, try to see things as they are, not just as what you want them to be.
When have you recieved maximum satisfaction?
there may be several occations where you would have tasted the " satisfied" experience. when exactly that is?
When have you recieved maximum satisfaction?
When you no longer desire satisfaction. Once satisfaction is achived you will have no more need to seek it out.
Reply:Revenge...just kidding.When I succeed at something,when I take it to the next level.
Reply:When I write something, and I know it could not be better.
Reply:At the curtain call of a play that I know I acted well.
Reply:I don't think any one could possibly know that, know one can possibly feel the same feeling another person undergoes.. what if we can't acheive that feeling in this life time, what if there is another one where you will know 100% maxium satisfaction.
Reply:When your memory sensors register... whether in a kitchen, were food is prepared, or your taste buds that register "satisfaction" like mine do when it's vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup mixed with milk to make-the-shake !
Life can't get more 'phat' than that !.
A triggered scent that has been engraved or etched when you were small and growing-up will trigger memories that normally are fond and satisfying if they are duplicated on the other end of the universe. It's that "Brain-Thing" ... when you have the complete and absolute answer for something that is as marvelous as this.... please find me here at Yahoo. I would be most interested.
Reply:When I do a good job at something. Usually something that takes some effort. If I feel I have worked hard at it to complete it - I feel "satisfied".
Reply:It's different things to different people.
Reply:Being surrounded by my family now that many are raised and simply watching them interact with one another, laughing, teasing, getting along, none of them drink, none have been arrested, none are disrespectful to their wives, their children are well behavied, and they love one another. THAT is the ultimate sense of the satisified experience in mortality. NOTHING compares to that.
Reply:One such was when I proved an important theorem. The result will go into the philosophy text that I am writing.

Reply:Anytime something really good happens. When I get a promotion, land a job I really really wanted, win some money, receive a wonderful present, my daughter says or does something that makes me proud, going to church, making love to my husband etc. All of these things makes me VERY happy and I feel satisfied. I feel temporary contentment with my life.
