From the page: "It is a rare person who lives without fear of one kind or another. You may fear heights, or spiders, or new situations, or rejectionâ€"whatever your fears may be, you can either let those fears form boundaries beyond which you canâ€t move or grow, or you can face them head-on and allow them to become opportunities to move into new places in your life. The choice is truly yours.

Fear can be paralyzing, literally, for some people. As a camp counselor many years ago, I helped teach rappelling to high-school students, and there were some who were eager to step off the edge of the cliff and experience the thrill of zipping down on a rope. But there were some who were so afraid of heights (or more specifically, of falling), that no matter how much I tried to assure them that the rope would not break, and that they could completely control their rate of descent, they simply froze up and could not take that first step over the edge."

From the page: "YouTube a few minutes ago announced that theyâ€re officially changing the size and aspect ratio of the standard video player on the site.

Weâ€re expanding the width of the page to 960 pixels to better reflect the quality of the videos you create and the screens that you use to watch them. This new, wider player is in a widescreen aspect ratio which we hope will provide you with a cleaner, more powerful viewing experience. And donâ€t worry, your 4:3 aspect ratio videos will play just fine in this new player."

From the page: "If you tell your brain you will â€oegive it a try,†you are actually telling your brain to fail. I have a â€oeno try†rule in my house and with everyone I interact with. Either people will do it or they wonâ€t. Either they will be at the party or they wonâ€t. Iâ€m brutal when people attempt to lie to me by using the word try. Do they think I donâ€t know they are really telegraphing to the world they have no intention of doing it but they want me to give them brownie points for pretended effort? You will never hear the words â€oeIâ€ll try†come out of my mouth unless Iâ€m teaching this concept in a seminar.

If you â€oetry†and do something, your unconscious mind has permission not to succeed. If I truly canâ€t make a decision I will tell the truth. â€oeSorry John. Iâ€m not sure if I will be at your party or not. Iâ€ve got an outstanding commitment. If that falls through, I will be here. Otherwise, I will not. Thanks for the invite.â€

People respect honesty. So remove the word â€oetry†from your vocabulary."

From the page: "The Companies Bill 2008, now pending with Parliament has initiated certain significant steps towards accountability, transparency and rationalisation of measures relating to audit and accounts. Some significant measures have been addressed by the Companies Bill 2008. Itâ€s heartening to see that some of these are broadly in line with similar international requirements.

The Bill has notified a list of services as prohibited services that an auditor of a company can never provide. Further, the provision of prohibited services or deficiency in conducting the audit would expose an auditor to a hefty penalty and knowing or wilful contravention can additionally attract imprisonment for one year. Such a conviction would additionally require the auditor to refund all remuneration received by him to the company and become liable to make good the loss arising out of his incorrect / misleading report to any other affected person."
