Stress Management Program and Brain Fitness?

July 17, 2010 By: Guest Author Category: Guest writer, Management

Your stress management program is an inside job. In other words, stress is a physiology that exists inside my body. Most of us have learned to link the external world to our physiology, by blaming the outside for the inside.

(For example, I will not have stress when I earn more money. That is not necessarily true). Read the rest of this entry →

Using Zen to Improve Your Personal Development Skills

July 15, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Personal Development

There are few things that go hand in hand the way Zen and personal development skills do. The whole concept and philosophy of “Zen” is all about making us better people. This is done by freeing the mind of all the garbage that we come across daily, making us see things much more clearly. It also forces us to ask ourselves questions. These aren’t just any questions. The questions that we must ask are deep down soul searching questions. Read the rest of this entry →

Personal Development: Are You Fooling Yourself?

July 15, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Personal Development

With the continuous and massive growth in sales of self improvement or self help books and the proliferation of personal development websites, wouldn’t you think that you would by now have witnessed a major shift in human consciousness – a marked improvement in the human condition? In other words, don’t you think, with all this new awareness, that a lot more people should be a lot happier? Sadly, not only is there little sign of improvement, all the evidence points to the contrary – increased levels of worry and anxiety Read the rest of this entry →

Personal Development – Get Out of Your Trance State!

July 15, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Personal Development

The normal mind is anaesthetized. I’ve come across people who do things they know they shouldn’t be doing but they appear not to be able to help it. I know people who insist on reading every single email the moment it arrives even though they’re supposed to be in the middle of something important and they know that the majority of the emails that they read are a complete and utter waste of time.

Hot Tips For Self Improvement

July 14, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Personal Development

Self improvement is never an accident and never occurs that way but it is the consequence of a deliberate action plan undertaken. It is imperative to understand from the onset that the reason most people stop growing is because they make the choice to not to grow and thereby putting their quest for personal growth and self improvement on the back burner so to speak.

Defiant Sarkozy says France is not corrupt!

July 14, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Politics

Nicolas SarkozyWell he would, wouldn’t he, the reality is there is a whole different moral code to that which exists in the UK.

A large proportion of the UK population think that our politician’s are corrupt but that’s measured against our strict moral code. The expenses scandal in this country would not have got a mention in France, our politician’s are still Read the rest of this entry →

Baron Prescott of Kingston upon Hull

July 13, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Politics

So John Prescott, former ships steward has made it to the House of Lords, don’t miss understand me I think its wonderful to see people prove that you can pull yourself by your bootlaces right up to the highest echelons of public life, its just that John Prescott has betrayed all the principals his career was built on to achieve it.

What we really need now is politicians of PRINCIPAL but good luck to John Prescott, you will add colour to the upper chamber!

Peter Mandelson the purveyor of Treachery and Poison!

July 13, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Politics

It is obvious from the extracts from his recently serialised book that the only person Peter Mandelson is interested in is Peter Mandelson, I am sure most of the Labour Party have known this for years but just hoped for the better.

It is amazing how Tony Blair and Gordon Brown were taken in by him but he has shown he will milk and eventually Read the rest of this entry →

 To ensure a happy, motivated and enthusiastic workforce it is essential to empower and trust them, I know people will say empowerment has been tried and failed but it hasn’t failed!

Paddy Ashdown warns Cameron

July 05, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Politics

I see that the venerable old Paddy Ashdown has warned David Cameron not to campaign against the Lib Dems demands for a change in the voting system.

The whole thing is developing into a shambles, having the vote at all is dangerous for British Democracy, and remember the Lib Dems have never been about democracy, but having it on the same day as other elections is dangerously slanting things in the Lib Dem’s favour. The Scottish and Welsh Assemblies are already Read the rest of this entry →

The British Sikh Army

July 05, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Lifestyle

Britain has a proud tradition of valiant armed forces and a capable military which has managed to defend these isles effectively for hundreds of years. British Military achievement is well known throughout the world and the bravery and versatility of its soldiers, seamen and airmen is unquestioned and forever stamped in history.

Today as we look at the VE Day Celebrations there is an abundance of information in the media that provides an insight into what life would have been like in those troubled times. It is right that we remember them, the fallen, and the living whose numbers dwindle with every passing year. To them we owe our freedom as they fought for this land and often lost their lives so that we might remain a free country.

The Top 5 Burlesque, Cabaret and Comedy Clubs In London

July 03, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Lifestyle

London’s Top Burlesque, Cabaret and Comedy Clubs
BurlesqueMaking a list of the best burlesque and cabaret clubs in London is in part a fools errand. The requirements of say a middle aged American tourist from the Mid West is going to be very different from that of say a young metropolitan burlesque aficionado or a hen /office party for that matter. And that’s before getting into supper club vs theatre style club vs bar style club, gay vs straight or the whole traditional vs neo burlesque debate. Below are what I call my five “best of breeds”. I make no attempt to crown one “best of show” – continue my canine simile – because to do so would be errant nonsense.

A must for everyone not just because it is the Daddy of the burlesque cabaret scene but because through its superlative programming it caters for almost everyone from my Read the rest of this entry →

Argentina’s Weak Claim on Falklands

June 28, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Guest writer, Politics

FalklandsArgentina’s claim over the islands is based on an 1826 accord between Britain and a territory that wasn’t yet Argentina, the United Provinces. This treaty granted them the right to start a settlement on the islands, but soon after, the United Provinces violated the agreement and declared its sovereignty over the archipelago. Britain regained control in 1833 without a shot being fired, and it wasn’t long before these cold barren rocky isles in the South Atlantic stopped being of interest to the nation to the west. That is, until 1982, Read the rest of this entry →

Eggs by weight!

Disadvantages of UK Joining the Euro

June 28, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Guest writer, Politics

1. Loss of Independent Monetary Policy. On joining the EURO interest rates would no longer be set by the MPC. They would be set by the European Central Bank. The ECB look at the whole EURO economy and not what is best for the UK. Thus if the UK joined now interest rates would fall from 5.25% to the ECB rate of 2.25%. This fall in interest rates could cause and further boost the buoyant Housing Market and cause future inflationary pressures. Read the rest of this entry →

England gets no say, as we have no voice!

The Conservative Liberal Democrats have set out their ‘blueprint’ for a “radical, reforming government”. There are two issues surrounding British Politics that the ‘blueprint’ simply ignores or attempts to put on the back burner. 1) Fair funding of the devolved nations 2) Devolution for England.

Take back your mind, take back your life! – by R.E. Darby

June 25, 2010 By: Phil Baker Category: Personal Development

Consciousness And Awareness
Our personalities are usually determined by our fears, courage, weakness and strengths, and those are states of mind, where did they come from? It is abundantly clear that these conditions are the result of outside influences and not the result of our natural state as we would be, had we not allowed ourselves to be tampered with by those outside influences such as family, society and its many needs, and a questionable educational system.
