Inspiring quotations

"Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer." Anonimous

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing you in response to the advertisement for the post of computer expert which was published in our local newspaper.

Since finishing my MBA degree from the university of York, I have become particulary interested in economics and now wish to develop my career in that direction.
Working as a computer expert would be the perfect, and very rewarding way to do so.

I think I would be suitable for the job because during my degree I've worked along with several computer experts and now I consider myself one of them.

I would like to have an opportunity to prove myself working in you team and I am available to start immediately.

I would be happy to attend an interview and look forward to hearing from you.

Your faithfully

Arshdeep

WHAT IF MONEY WAS NO OBJECT- ALAN WATTS

Hi guys, A few days ago I saw a group of young people like us were sharing this video on social networks. And I remembered the exercise we did with Sonia: 'WHAT ADDS TO JOB SATISFACTION'

She made us think about what were our objectives when trying to find a job.
The fotocopy had several objectives that we had to sort in order to have a satisfactory job such as: working conditions, status in your organization, learning something new, personal freedom, being part of team, exercising power, helping other people, being praised by your superiors, social status, being promoted, and making money.

There's one which is tightly related with te following video: working in what you like. that's what its all about.

We must activate our mind in order to decide by ourselves what do we really wish to do and what path do we want to follow.
