Dear VR ji,

The James Bond character is not married as far as I know.

When men explore the world their wives are busy being explored by other worlds too!LOL

Men brag about their escapades of any kind but women know when silence is the best ornament.

Dear Renu,
Every man's escapade involves a woman - who is not his wife!!! Right??
So there are as many women involved in these clandestine activities as men.
Men brag and feel bloated while women remain silent and serene. :)
 
What factors are at play when people of high IQ fail and those of modest IQ succeed?

How well you do in your life and career is determined by both. IQ alone is not enough; EQ also matters.

In fact, psychologists generally agree that among the ingredients for success, IQ counts for roughly 10% (at best 25%); the rest depends on everything else — including EQ.

A study of Harvard graduates in business, law, medicine and teaching showed a negative or zero correlation between an IQ indicator (entrance exam scores) and subsequent career success.

Three examples illustrate the importance of emotional competencies.

Dear VR ji,


I have noted that among my friends who are the top guns in out here in their careers in medicine were very average students in college and they had to study real hard to clear any exam and sometimes they even failed but they were determined to try try again. Today they appear almost in every medical journal and are famous even abroad.

I have noted the exposure to some degree of failure during study years is equally important in building EQ and emotional strength.

IQ is just part of getting to college but EQ is what determines the success later in life.

In a silent movie by Charlie chaplain ( may be one century old)

men would jump from every window - holding on to their shoes in one hand

and pants in the other - and take off like gazelles at the sight of a lion!

I do not remember the name of the movie or the reason why they fled!

May be it was due to the sound of whistle made by a police officer! :rofl:

dear Renu,

Who is better qualified in understanding emotions

than the more sensitive women folks!
 
Why are women more Sensitive?


It is the wide spread belief that women are more emotional than men. They are also more emotionally expressive than men. They have more intense emotions, more fears, more sadness and more guilty feelings than men.

Are these due the differences in the physical and mental make up of the men and women?

The differences are due to many reasons.

Women appear to recall an emotion in greater detail than men. Women ruminate about an experience, thus creating and developing more emotional attachments to it. This helps them to recall the experience with greater accuracy.

For women, the experience of an emotion and the expression of the emotion, become one and the same. They have better vocabulary and better ways of expressing their feelings.

Women have more expressive faces and eyes than men. Women benefit more by a greater degree of emotionality.

Women have a higher necessity and motivation for intimacy. They have greater vigilance over their personal relationships. They try to set right their strained relationships

When the relationship becomes hopeless, the women are the first ones to get out of it, unscathed.

Women are supposed to be the weaker sex since they are physically weak. They need some one stronger to defend them and take care of them. They can achieve this, only by developing and maintaining healthy and satisfactory relationships.

This is made possible by their more sensitive disposition, to their own emotions as well those of the people around them.

Dear VR ji,

There used to be a student in my class who is one of the top shots today out here in the field of ENT.

He was very average in college days and I used to be among the top scorers but I am not the ambitious types and did not want to pursue my career that far.I prefer to my job as a mode to generate a decent income and have other interest in life too.

Ok so this is the best part...once I had to see this doc as a patient and I was happy to see him thinking since he was my friend in college it would be easier for me to talk to him.

To my surprise he was actually kind of nervous with me..Whatever questions I asked him regarding my problem he was a bit hesitant to answer.

Then he finally said "you were a much better student than me in college..I am afraid in case you might find some flaw in what I say"

I started laughing and told him "hey you are the top shot today..not me..why do you fear me?"

He said becos "I know that you know I scored less than you in college".

Even though he was such a top doc he seemed to fear a person who scored more than him in college days.

Weird right?

If at first you don't succeed try try try again. :playball:

If at second you don't succeed try try try again. :ballchain:

If at third you don't succeed cry cry cry again! :Cry:

Wisdom lies in changing what can be changed

and enduring what cannot be changed and

knowing the difference between the two.

Namaste Visalakshi ji,

Whereas in the world of schools and colleges, one's intelligence determines the level of success and fame, in office situations, it is purely one's work ability/hard work that determines success. I have observed this with many people. Even those of average IQ can succeed, say as a Programmer, if they are able to invest that much time for finishing the project within the deadline. I have practically observed the managers in many situations just brushing aside values such as code needing to be according to standards, etc, if they deem the worker as otherwise hard-working able to work extra 2 hrs (unpaid) as and when needed, and will be available to work in the weekends too. Even those of average IQ, over exposure to the code for sometime, pick it up and therefore hard working ability far outweighs the merits of a top IQ, except for advanced scientific applications. This is my observation.

Cheers,

Jayashree

VR ji wrote about Apsaras and Tamas females will become Apsaras in the after world.

JR marketed the concept in another thread...saying that there are potential candidates.

I replied..Let the party begin.

So now the question is "Who is the potential Apsara ?"


Who is the black sheep! Adhu Yaar Yaar Yaar?LOL
 
Namaste friends, Visalakshi ji,

I went through the Freedom of expression thread. Maybe it was all a big misunderstanding, but I felt truly sorry for my comments and sentiments expressed there. So a saashtanga namaskara and a sincere, big apology for whatever I expressed there.
