1. Control Anger & Jealousy
Being angry or jealous with others makes you find it hard to have happiness in life. Therefore, you should always keep calm when you see someone’s mistakes, and be happy when you see someone’s success. You should learn to understand and sympathize with others when they make mistakes, and honestly be happy when they succeed in life or at work rather than being jealous with them. The more angry and jealous you are, the worse you will feel about yourself. Holding anger with someone is actually a way you punish yourself, while forgiving is a valuable gift.
2. Think Before Speaking
You should think thoroughly about everything you want to say before you speak out. First, you should consider if it is necessary to say it out. Second, you should think if this is the right time to say it. Third, consider whether what you are going to speak out may hurt someone mentally.
3. Listen To Other People

If you want to speak well, you should listen well first. This is the reason why we have two ears, but only one mouth.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

Great life advices ,complied by Lion.Thilak.M.D
1. Great Life Advices
-by Mark Twain
Complied by : Lion.Thilak.M.D , All is Well HR Solutions,Chennai
2. Age is in your mind more than anywhere else.
“Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.”
With this clever play on words, Twain is telling us age doesn't matter as long as you don't give it significance. It means that a
young soul can dwell in an old body and all the limitations we put on age, other than those physical ones, are actually in our
head.
This advice isn't just about age, it's also about self confidence. When we believe we have a problem, we transmit that to the
people around us and so bring it to pass. People can feel the lack of self confidence in others and they will treat you as you
treat yourself. So, once you make that mental 'switch', the environment will too.
3. Humor is one of the most important things.
““Humor is mankind’s greatest blessing.”
“Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.”
The simple act of laughing and responding to humor is one of the greatest experiences of the human condition. Life is nothing
without laughter, just a sad shell, and although there are pleasures in life that have nothing to do with humor, they are always
improved upon and made more palatable with a good side dish of laughter. Humor helps almost all situations and using it will
draw people to you faster than anything else you may do.
4. Anger will hurt you more than help you.
“Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.”
Anger is an inescapable human emotion, we all get mad once in a while. But there are ways to control out anger, and
not let it control us. Just like laughter is transient in nature, so should anger be. A joke will make you laugh again and
again if you think about it over and over, and anger is no exception, the more you think about it, the angrier you'll
become. So, when you are angry at something or someone, it's important you let it die out naturally; don't continue to
feed it. Think of other things and apply your cognitive resources at things that make you happy.
5. The World doesn’t owe you; You owe yourselves
“Don’t go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.”
The feeling of being owned something by the world is common in this generation. We all feel entitled to something,
whether it's a steady job, money, happiness etc. But these feelings usually lead only to frustration, bitterness, anger
and resentment. Let go of these expectations from yourselves and from the world, and you'll see that everything
becomes a bit easier. You do deserve the best, but you'll need to go and get it for yourselves.
6. Having a new idea is not a crime.
“A person with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds.”
When you see things differently than other people, expect mixed reactions. Some will support you, others ignore you,
while still others will try to bring you down. Most people tend to hold on to their preconceived notions for dear life,
and will even act agressively or negatively when these are threatened by an opposing opinion. But remember, all great
discoveries were once such novel ideas, and many of them carried negative reactions. You should say what you believe
and act upon it, don't let anyone tell you your ideas are 'too weird'. After all, human flight used to be such a novel and
strange idea.
7. Don't let your thoughts dwell on the negative.
“ “Drag your thoughts away from your troubles… by the ears, by the heels, or any other way you can manage it.”
You must watch your thoughts, because it is so easy to get into a habit of thinking negatively, hashing our worries and troubles
over and over in our head, until they seem as big as mountains and as dark as night. Thinking positively is one of the best gifts
you can give yourselves, and will ultimately lead to you doing everything a little better, with people reacting much better to
your attitude. In the end, life is made up of 'tasks' we must accomplish, some small, some big and difficult. Try to look at any
'difficult' task as a challenge and as an opportunity to learn something about yourselves.
8. Instead of worrying about yourself, worry about others and help yourself..
“The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.”
There is something magical about making someone else smile or getting them out of a tough situation. Helping others
not only makes us better people and buys us goodwill from those around us, it also makes our own problems seem
smaller because we're not preoccupied with them 24/7. If you help others without thinking, just jumping in and
helping out, you'll be the one ending up with a smile on your face.
9. Try everything, regret nothing.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did so.So throw
off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
A beautiful quote my Mark Twain and one that is full of truth. It's always easier to delay things we want to do.
After all, life usually gets in the way and we tell ourselves 'well, we'll try it later'. But as we get older, those oppurtunities
become more and more rare, and the things we end up regretting the most are the things we simply never tried to do.
Failure shouldn't scare us, it's a part of life. What is scarier is having oppurtunities and never acting on them. So when you
think you want to do something - do it. Failure may happen, but at least you'll know the answer to the question: "What if?".
