You love your job and you love your career, but are you making an effort not to make a fatal career move? Now, if you are making a fatal career move, it's not the end of the world! Read over the following fatal career moves and if you're making them stop, and if you're not making them, don't start:

Fatal Career Move #1: Isolating Yourself

Isolating yourself from the rest of the group or office can negatively affect you in many ways. You can be viewed as not having an understanding of the topic, thinking you are better than the rest of the office, thinking of leaving, not liking the individuals you work with, and many more!

Fatal Career Move #2: Lacking People Skills

Not only can this affect how people in the office view you, but it can also affect how customers see you. They may view you as not being knowledgeable or as being snobby!

Fatal Career Move #3: Conducting Personal Business While On the Clock

This is a big no-no! If your employer found out you were scheduling doctor's appointments or tax sessions, they wouldn't be too happy. Save your personal stuff for before work, your lunch break, or after work!

Fatal Career Move #4: Starting an Office Romance

You are in a new environment, working with new people and, have a crush on a co-worker. This of this, what happens if you break up? What happens when you find out that individual has had three other relationships with co-workers? What happens if that individual is still having a relationship with a co-worker? Not only are you sacrificing relationships with friends, but you might end up giving up the job of your dreams!

Fatal Career Move #5: Not Having Any Goals

If you aren't working towards something, why are you even working? Goals are set to help drive you so if the only goal you have is to make money, you might consider a different career! Go to work happy or go home.

Fatal Career Move #6: Missing Deadlines

Chances are, your employer won't let this go on for too long. Not only do you have a responsibility to your co-worker, but the rest of the office, and the company's clients as well. Think of it this way, how would you feel if you were supposed to move into your apartment on the first and the day you go to move the real estate agent says it will be another few weeks? Or, you are ready to sign the divorce papers but the lawyer doesn't show up?

Fatal Career Move #7: Showing Up Late

I know, it is a bummer the world doesn't evolve around you. Showing up early will get you a raise, showing up late, well, that will get you fired. If you can't complete a basic task, what happens when you are given a difficult one?

Fatal Career Move #8: Not Being a Team Player

Let's face it, some people do know more than others but if you don't like being told what to do, what makes you think someone else will? The more you listen the less you work, so at least a bad idea just landed you a ten minute break! On a more positive note, you just may learn something!

Fatal Career Move #9: Fearing Failure

The more energy you invest into fear, the less energy you are investing into success. If you do fail, don't look at it as failure, look at it as a lesson. If you know what you did wrong, you won't do it again.

Fatal Career Move #10: Neglecting Your Image

Perception is reality. If you show up to a meeting with ripped jeans and a tank top you can bet the attention will be on you, and not in a good way. Dress for success, don't arrive for failure.

Foreplay Do's and Dont'sJun 21, 2010

Foreplay Dos and Don’ts

Foreplay is a time to be adventurous and creative, so there are very few hard-and-fast rules. But there are a few general guidelines that might be helpful to keep in mind:

  • Don’t underestimate the importance of foreplay. This is a critical part of your relationship and a great way to strengthen your intimate connection. Never view it as a chore.
  • Do maintain a lot of variety in your foreplay routine. It should never get so predictable that it falls into the Step 1, Step 2, Step 3 type of pattern.
  • Don’t look at foreplay as an “opening act” for intercourse. Often, foreplay can be a satisfying experience all on its own.
  • Don’t keep score when it comes to foreplay. It’s not a case where if one partner gets ten minutes of his or her favorite foreplay, the other needs an exact amount. Foreplay should flow naturally and be flexible according to each partner’s needs and wants.

Now that we’ve given you a whole section on the techniques of amazing foreplay, here are some Important Foreplay Do’s and Don’t’s that you’ll want to keep in mind: Always kiss her first. Don’t stampede toward the clitoris, or you’ll make her feel like a whore.  Kissing is the best way to get her juices flowing, so make it long, passionate and imaginative. You can certainly apply the French Kiss here, as well as nibbling lightly and sucking on her lips. Hold her face in your hands, play with her hair… be romantic! Whisper Sweet Nothings.Yes, it really works. Women love to hear how sexy they are and how much they turn you on. Don’t pressure her. Unless she’s into domination, barking orders is not going to arouse her.Take your time and both of you enjoy the moment. Watch the tongue! Tonguing and French Kissing are both great, but don’t jam your tongue down her throat so deep that she gags. No hickeys. What is this, the junior prom? Kiss, lick, and caress her neck, but don’t leave mark marks. Nibble her ears.Trust us on this one!It never fails. Take your time undressing her. Don’t rip her clothes off like you’re playing “Beat the Clock”. Women love to be teased as much as men.Drag out the anticipation of erotic pleasure yet to come. An Erotic Massage is always nice.Women love to be rubbed and massaged.D ousing her with warm oil only adds to the sexiness she’s already feeling. Work your fingers into her flesh and spend a little extra time on the butt. No Nipple-Biting. As we mentioned earlier, there’s a right way and a wrong way to handle a woman’s chest. Chewing and suckling are not turn-ons.. they’re downright painful. Also remember that many women are sensitive about their breasts, so be complimentary. Even is she’s small in that area, compliment the beauty of her chest. Go Downtown more often.Women love it, but only if it’s done well. You should be excited about doing it (if you’re not, she won’t be either). Start with your fingers and progress to the tongue.Focus on the whole pussy area, not just the Golden Spot.Use variations… don’t just stick your finger in her vagina and wiggle it. You can also use your other hand to caress her thighs, her butt, her breasts.Also, be aware of your facial stubble and long sharp nails that might cause her discomfort. Be aware of when NOT to go downtown!She’ll probably let you know when she’s on her period, but look for telltale tampon signs. Of course, some men like performing oral sex during a woman’s time of the month (personally not our cup of tea!), but that’s a decision to be made by you… and her. No fisting! Maybe she likes this sort of thing, but NEVER presume anything about a woman where sex is concerned.Especially something like this. Be courteous during fellatio.When it’s your turn to receive oral sex, here are three things to remember: (1) most women don’t like it when you grab their head or hair and hold it in your cock region. (2) don’t ram your dick down her throat like a battering ram. (3) let her know if you’re about to cum.Yes, many women love to swallow.. even still, give her the option of choosing whether or not she wants to drink your love juices.On the same subject, don’t cum on her face or in her hair. Use toys at your discretion.If things are progressing swiftly, you may not want to take the time to pull out the dildo.At this point, she may want the “real thing”, not some battery operated piece of plastic.On the other hand, many women (and men!) love to be stimulated with vibrators, wands and pocket rockets.Again, this needs to be a mutual decision. Nothing too kinky.If you don’t know her or her sexual tastes, it’s probably best if you don’t bring out the whips, the sheep, or whatever twisted things you’ve got in your closet. Making her wear a collar or peeing on her definitely will NOT score you any points. So, had enough foreplay?

Friends drinking cocktails

                                       The cardinal Sins of Friendship (the Don'ts)

1. Don't gossip about your friend.
2. Don't date your friend's ex.
3. If someone your friend is desperately attracted to asks you out, don't go - politely decline.
4. If your friend doesn't want to talk about something, respect their privacy.
5. Don't knock her choices be it handbags or boyfriends.
6. When she speaks badly about her husband/boyfriend/partner - neither agree nor disagree. Shrug your shoulders, nod, and leave it at that.
7. Don't be devious, tricky or sneaky.
8. Don't make promises you can't keep.
9. Don't be a Behaviour Monitor (even if she asks you). It is her responsibility to know when she's had enough be it biscuits or beer.
10.Don't judge.
11. If you honestly feel a friendship is past its sell-by-date then end it - don't drag it on.
12. Don't lie to your friend - ever. Not to protect her, nor to protect yourself. Once the trust is broken it will never be the same.
 
 
                                 Top Tips for Optimum Friendship Maintenance (the Do's)

1. If she tells you a secret, keep it a secret.
2. If seems as if something isn't right - don't pressure her but let her know you're there if she wants to talk.
3. Respect her choices.
4. Be honest but be timely. If you don't think her outfit is a good choice tell her before she buys it or before she leaves the house. Leaning over in the middle of the dancefloor and saying ‘What were you thinking?!' is never a good move.
5. Discuss issues before they become problems.
6. Say what you mean and mean what you say.
7. Return what you borrow.
8. Give honest advice.
9. Accept your limitations - you're not Dr. Phil. Shoulder to cry on or a listening ear - yes. In-depth psychological assistance - be careful and direct her elsewhere if necessary.
10. Never forget the value of a true friend. Priceless. Take good care of her and she will last you a lifetime, there's not much else that can say that.

WATCH  OUT FOR THESE FRIENDS

The Blamer
This is a person who consistently blames you and/or everyone else for her problems. The world and the people in it always seem to create havoc for this person, and instead of taking responsibility for her life, she'd rather blame others.

The Complainer
This person likes to hear her own voice. She constantly complains about what isn't working in her life and yet gets energy from complaining and dumping her frustrations on you.

The Drainer
This is the needy person who calls to ask for your guidance, support, information, advice, or whatever she needs to feel better in the moment. Because of her neediness, the conversation often revolves around her, and you can almost feel the life being sucked out of you during the conversation.

The Shamer
This person can be hazardous to your health. The shamer may cut you off, put you down, reprimand you, or make fun of your or your ideas in front of others. She often ignores your boundaries and may try to convince you that her criticism is for you own good. The shamer is the kind of person who make you question your own sanity before hers.

The Discounter
This is the person who discounts or challenges everything you say. Often, she has a strong need to be right and can find fault with any position. It can be exhausting to have a conversation with the discounter, so eventually you end up giving in and deciding to just listen.

 

The Gossip
This person avoids intimacy by talking about others behind their backs. The gossip gets energy from relaying stories, opinions, and the latest "scoop." By gossiping about others, she creates a lack of safety in her relationships, whether she realizes it or not. After all, if she'll talk about someone else, she'll talk about you.

Mission Statement

Brotherhood of the World was founded in March of 2008. Our mission is to tap into the generous spirit of athletes and other caring individuals by developing opportunities to give back to the community; through a volunteer program specifically focused on underprivileged youths and children. These programs enable us to interact with them to help provide them with the necessary skills, tools, and resources for conducting themselves successfully in life. We embrace family values as well as fellowship and camaraderie. Through these values, we want to help motivate the youth to set and achieve high goals in education, in the community and ultimately their lives.  We understand that they really look up to us as positive influences and we hope to build bonds that will serve the young forever. While our primary target is the youth, we also advocate ideas and programs for combating homelessness and trying to enhance the lives of the less fortunate.

This foundation is rooted in Atlanta, but will have future partnerships and growth throughout the country and eventually the world.

Restaurant EtiquetteJun 11, 2010

The following are a number of etiquette Do's and Don'ts when dining at a restaurant

1. Seating: Choose a comfortable table location. Nice locations include next to a window or near an attractive view such as a lovely wall picture. Make sure you are not seated in a high traffic area as this will be a constant distraction

2. Don't treat the wait staff poorly. They are there to fulfill all of your dining needs. As well, this is how they are earning an income so being rude or obnoxious makes their job unpleasant and stressful. If your server makes a mistake with your order, or your food is not cooked properly, don't yell at the server. Be courteous and kind when sending food back.

3. Use good manners when you are eating. For instance, chew with your mouth closed and don't put too much food in your mouth. Don't use bread for dipping in soups or soaking up sauces. Don't make loud noises when eating. Don't talk with a full mouth. Don't put your elbows on the table. Use utensils when eating. Eat at the same speed as your guests. Don't pick your teeth or lick your fingers at the table. Don't cut your food in pieces that are too big. You don't want to sit there chewing on a big chunk of meat, especially if you are on a date.

4. Keep your cell phone turned off. Talking on a cell phone is rude to your guests as well as the rest of the people dining.

5. Don't move your plate away when have finished your meal. Wait until the server returns to take it away. Your guests do not want to look at uneaten food.

6. Leave a tip of 15% of the total cost of the meal. Waiters and waitresses acquire most of their earnings from tips as there wages are not that high. They also often have to share tips with other staff such as bus staff.

7. When you are ready to pay, let the server know. They don't always know when diners are ready to pay. If you are on a budget, make sure you order food that you can afford. Remember taxes, tips, and beverages will all be included in the price. If you are the one paying for the meals, don't announce the cost to your guests.

8. Don't sit around for hours drinking coffee. This will make it one less table unavailable for other diners. The restaurant will end up losing money.
