I am Adamant About That.

You've heard this phrase time-and-time again from individuals - from your friends, from colleagues, from family, even from your own mouth. In a group conversation, you or someone has likely ended a statement with this claim, “....... I am adamant about that!”.

This phrase seems to emphasize a strong and unmovable conviction or opinion about a particular subject. This exclamatory statement “I am adamant about that!” serves to both reinforce our personal, absolute convictions and also let's others know that this is your non-negotiable, uncompromising, don't-question-me area.

This personal claim of conviction is a perfect window (Johari Window) into your persona and helps people understand you as an individual, as a human being. This 'adamantation', as we shall call it, is a glimpse into your personal BELIEFS and VALUES. And beliefs and values are the solid foundation of our personalities.

A new approach.

Idea! Most of us presently elicit these personal 'adamantations' in a random way through one-on-one conversations and group dialogue. Maybe we should take time, regularly, to create (and re-create) a written 'Personal - I am Adamant List'. This list could explicitly identify our personal position on any number of worldly things. Some of the topic areas to consider as part of this 'Personal Adamant List' might be: the environment (maybe specifically global warming), traditions (around holidays and birthdays), relationships (love and friendship relationships), ethics, spirituality, sexuality, politics and the list grows.

Making The Best Out Of A Home Based MLM Business Opportunity
There are different ways of making money. Some have decided to work full time while others have decided to start it up. The advantage of being an entrepreneur is that the person has control over everything and those who have no idea where to start can probably try MLM in the comforts of one's home.There is nothing in the law that will stop the individual from selling goods while this is based at home. In fact, tax incentives are given since the governme

Finding Your Niche: What Do You Want To Be Known For?
In my experience, there are two kinds of small business owners: one that knows whom their market niche is and utilize it, and another who tends to waiver or not want to “set in stone” their target market. With the latter group, I always probe for more information: Why don’t you want to choose a specific target for your product/service? Time and time again, the response is the same “I don’t want to limit my profits by only catering to a few.”In all reali

Critical Illness Insurance - The Press are Giving Insurers a Hard Time
Recent stories in the press have again lambasted the insurers over critical illness insurance. The core problem is that a critical illness claim is not as straightforward as, for example, a claim under life insurance. With life insurance it's going to be hard for the insurance company to argue that you're not dead!By their very nature, critical illness claims are much more complicated. The insurer will need to satisfy itself that the claim is validated

A 'Personal Adamant List', or PAL, would never be a static or stagnant written list. Your 'Personal Adamant List' would, like life, be a dynamic and changing list of 'adamantations'. Over time this PAL would outline an interesting personal history of your beliefs and values mapping a revealing trail of your personal growth and maturity. A personal document more poignant than the daily ramblings of a diary or a BLOG. Your PAL, being void of personal references, would have the added benefit of being something you might openly share. Your PAL is likely to provide YOU with a greater understanding of YOURSELF. A Good Thing.

Make your 'Personal Adamant List' (PAL) a part of your toolset when you are assessing a new employer, a customer or a business associate. Use it to determine the alignment between your personal beliefs and values and their underlying beliefs and values. You could even include parts of your PAL in your bio, your blog and your profile information. Give people the opportunity to really get to KNOW YOU, really get to UNDERSTAND YOU. Understanding is the first step toward effective communication. It could result in a richer human interaction and communication experience. This is a another Good Thing.

Imagine the positive effect at a party, social soiree (swa ray), or business gathering. Much reduced 'foot-in-mouth' situations. Eliminate those embarrassing moments when you say something that, you only now realize, is diametrically opposed to somebody else's belief. And now you perform some awkward back-peddling to counter the wave of alienation you've created. In time using your PAL, you could come to develop a more adept manner of approaching topics, which will allow you to test the waters for other people's 'adamantations' before opening your mouth. More improved communication and human interaction.

It just keeps getting better.

In today's regulatory environment, timely, accurate and comprehensive information is more critical than ever. While traditional business intelligence (BI) solutions have dominated the corporate environment based on their ability to quickly query, access and then report on information, they often lack the processes and metrics needed to measure and manage business performance.
