Forever in Love

Love Bytes
  • Consider issues from the other person's point of view.
  • Learn to forgive; and ask for forgiveness without hesitation.
  • Resolve issues immediately.
All about exchange

Believe marriage is one-way street - only receiving; whereas, its about exchange, where you accept the partner for what he/she is. Appreciate the positives; allow her / him to grow.

Your bitterness wells up when the partner doesn’t fit into your framework of right and wrong, does something in your do-not-approve-of list.

Do you think another person can live entirely on your approval ratings?

Expectations are conditions, selfishly made. Your partner isn’t play dough you can be role model to your liking. Look at the partner with understanding and objectivity.

Give love, but keep your space. It’s all about balancing your self-worth - i can do something well, others not-so-well.

When you talk, make eye contact. Find ways to laugh together. And learn to listen. This is a clear act of love, a solid start to increased marital harmony.

Enterprise Resource Planning

Enterprise Resource Planning or ERP is actually a process or approach which attempts to consolidate all of a company's departments and functions into a single computer system that services each department's specific needs. It is, in a sense, a convergence of people, hardware and software into an efficient production, service and delivery system that creates profit for the company.

While the idea is easy to grasp in theory, the reality has been different.
  • Employee records (including payroll, medical and other benefits) are held by Human Resources.
  • Financial data and processing, which includes payroll computations and employee compensation as well as invoicing and billing for company products and services, are held by the Finance Department.
  • Production data is held by manufacturing. Inventories are held by warehousing.
  • Customer orders are held by Customer Relations.

The 'dream' of ERP is to have a single software solution integrating the different functions and activities into a seamless whole where information needed for decision-making is shared across departments, and the action taken by one department results in the appropriate follow-up action up and down the line.
