When work is weighing you down, and there seems like a million things to do, and you feel like your relationship is suffering, know that you are right. Your relationship IS suffering. The key here is not to use time as the adjustable consumable for your work. Fix the time for work and get done what has to be done in that time.
Add the quality of your relationship to your measure of your work process. If you are coming home bummed out, fatigued, late at night, and you think you are doing a great job, then you need to think again. That's like putting square wheels on a car. You might be winning at work, but in life - which is what counts - you are losing.
Set your standards to protect your relationships. Evolve your work practices in a way that sends you home happy and full of love rather than craving compassion and complaining about how hard work is. Work is not hard, work is just work. If you drive around all day attending meetings, and this exhausts you, either find a way to make it fun and stop complaining or change the process.
By default, if you keep doing work that you don't like and don't enjoy and can't get your head around enjoying it somehow, then you've decided that your relationship is not really what you want and you are overtly sabotaging your life and your relationship.
Sometimes there's a short period when you say to your partner, "Whoops, I blew it at work and I am struggling, please give me some tolerance for a week." And, this is understandable - one or twice each year, things can overwhelm you for a week.
When the heat of work comes on, I hear people say, "Oh, it's only for a week or so," but it is not good for your love relationship. The crack becomes a leak and the leak becomes a resentment and finally, there's a pattern. Tell your boss, "No."
That doesn't mean you refuse to do extra work. Of course you do extra work; the more work you take on the more indispensable you become. But take more on only if you can refine the process.
One client told me they could do twice the work but it set up an expectation for them to keep it up, so they backed off. This becomes a compromise on my client's life. A joyful person fills their day and fills it productively. They don't want to waste time at work or at home.
In the work of energy management, we recommend people put in 90% - never 100% because that is exhausting. It's the same in relationship; keep some energy back, otherwise you're living too close to the edge and you'll fall. You need to be stable in relationship and work; it means always looking for ways to give more in less time. How to connect better.
Relationship is about trust, and love is about the now. Compromising your significant other destroys both these important elements.
These choices might seem a little harsh but compromise just never works in relationship. If you compromise your relationship it's because you don't value it. There's no excuse for abuse, and abuse starts when you start swapping relationship time for work time. I work 14 hours a day. I don't give my time 50/50 to work and relationship. I work 14 hours, exercise for 3 and have relationship for 2. That's my pattern and it's what I promise my partner I can sustain. This is beyond compromise with us.
Turning up is the demand for an evolved relationship. People don't like the compromised model of the past. If you don't turn up then, no matter how many hours you spend with your partner or how much you work on the relationship, it will never be enough. Not compromising your relationship means turning up with a certain standard of health and happiness, contributing presence with your partner.
More and more people are opting to stay single. The reason is that they want quality, not quantity of intimacy. They are choosing to celebrate love with a partner rather than get embroiled in a relationship. Staying single does not mean lack of love, in fact, more often than not, it means more of it. It often means that this individual has their future clearly mapped out and they don't need or want anyone to partner with them to manifest it.
The difficulty for those in relationship is that love often takes a back seat to the future planning. The couple can find themselves making choices based on what's good for the future and sort of taking for granted the love side. Sadly, this leaves a vacuum and people often get hurt. It's because some people worry so much about the future, they invest their whole relationship energy in it and then find that they haven't looked after the now.
In the choice to enter a relationship, we are acknowledging both the now and the future are important. Work can drag people away from the now but they justify it by saying that they are doing it for the future. This often ends up in disaster because that person has built a future but has no love left to sustain it.
There are two aspects: Relationship and love -- you need to always remember to focus on keeping your love in the moment. It's a daily ritual of devotion. A commitment to higher order. It's a worship of a real live guru, your partner. It's a celebration of the lower and the higher energies of life, the sexual and the divine. It is truly an opportunity to reach extremely high states of awareness and it takes extraordinary commitment and willpower to sustain the practice.
It is wise to understand that love is never static. The level of love we share for our partner at the start must be considered as the minimum, and we build from there. Remembering that love is not relationship, so love growth cannot be measured in children produced, rings bought, cars upgraded or holidays shared. Those are the material existence of the emotional world of relationship and fabulous if you choose them. But they do not substitute or replace love. Only stillness and emptiness, unconditional expectation free time sitting together can build love. And love grows.
To sustain a growing love with your partner, you and your partner will need to be expanding your mindset on a daily basis. A fixed minded person cannot expand their love. They can love to fixed levels but will not be able to grow it. Their mind acts like a screen or a closed box locking out the world rather than expanding to meet it.
Everyday life is the fuel for relationship. If you expand your inclusions in life, and therefore unlearn your judgments everyday, your love will grow.
With the pressure of life, try to avoid using your relationship time to compensate for your poor innovation and lack of evolution at work. There are a million ways to do more in less time.
I also ask those people around me to respect my relationship too. If someone gives me a three-hour task to complete 1 hour before I am due home, I will not do it. My partner is not compensated for that abuse. If I am asked to work back tomorrow night with a day's notice, at least my partner can use her time well; she deserves that respect.
There is a reason for everything. A reason to meet someone and a reason to stay with someone. Nature is a reasoning essence. Everything has a purpose. It is wise to evolve your life and your relationship toward that purpose.
In old times relationships were for life. Many people died just to escape their relationship. Much illness and disease can be traced to the inability to leave a relationship because of social and personal pressures.
Evolving in a relationship does not mean packing up and leaving it every time the challenge comes. However, it can mean searching for more than love as a binding force to hold you both together. Love is not enough to bind people in relationship.
Love and reason are needed. Why are you with your partner? Is it for a purpose? Some people are in relationship because of very emotional reasons and therefore their relationships are only bound by contracts and social pressure. For example: some people stay for the children. This is a very important reason to take social and financial responsibility, but it will not bind a couple in a loving relationship. It binds them in a contract of responsibility and this is different to a real relationship. It is a partnership. This might be fine for some but loyalty, monogamy, fidelity and trust are not motivated by partnership.
To bind in a love-filled relationship long term is a real commitment these days because we have freedom of choice. The forced slavery of marriage contracts is less than before and now; we stay together only if the reason is good and the love is strong. This is very healthy.

Eden Hazard: I'm not selfish enough to win Ballon d'Or

Eden Hazard believes his lack of selfishness holds him down from winning the Ballon d'Or
Hazard has scored 16 goals for Chelsea this season and is linked with a move to Real Madrid
READ MORE: Chelsea monitoring £40m-rated Arsenal midfielder, Man United and Juventus also linked
Chelsea forward Eden Hazard has admitted 'he's not selfish enough' to win the Ballon d'Or and insists he is happy to be a team player.
In what's been a frustrating season for Chelsea, Hazard has still been able to capture the excitement from Blues fans in scoring 16 goals this season as he still plays a valuable role for his team.
The 27-year-old insists that the Ballon d'Or has become an accolade for players that are selfish on the pitch, as he's quoted by the BBC saying:
"I think football now if you want to win something like the Ballon d'Or or top scorer, you need to be selfish. I am not this."
Out of Eden Hazard's 16 goals this season, 12 of them came in the Premier League.
Hazard, has been branded as one of the best players in the world and a potential Ballon D'Or winner in recent years. However, Chelsea's occasional struggles, especially this season, has a negative impact on the Belgian winning such a prestigious global honour.
It's perhaps for this reason why Hazard has been linked with Real Madrid, a club that could certainly launch the winger's career even further.
Hopefully Hazard's demands of wanting a stronger squad around him at Chelsea, as reported by the BBC, can be the platform for greater things in this marvellous player's tenure at SW6.

SpaceX, NASA is a light of inspiration for humanity
June 2, 2020 by admin 0 Comments
By Joey Klender
SpaceX and NASA's Crew Dragon Demo-2 launch on Saturday was the most-watched online event in the history of the American aerospace organization. Amid the madness on Earth, differences were set aside to watch two Aerospace entities launch astronauts into space.
Approximately 10.3 million people tuned in to watch the mission's launch on May 30, according to NASA Associate Administrator for Communications Bettina Inclán via Saturday's live webcast.
With the world currently filled with uncertainty, the recent SpaceX and NASA accomplishments showcased humanity's ability to achieve greatness together after launching American astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley to the International Space Station.
In the grand scheme of things, the unity that has been indicated by the viewership of Crew Dragon's launch cites a large scale idea: We are all one human race.
2020 has been anything but smooth for humankind. In the first three months of the year, citizens of virtually every country across the world were preparing to live in a world where COVID-19 would affect every aspect of human life. Stores closed, people stayed home. Eventually, life started flowing again. The world may never be the same still, but humans everywhere learned to adapt and overcome adversity by making simple changes.
Now, a new pandemic has entered the lives of everyone as a long-standing issue continues to bring themselves to the forefront. Respect and equality are expected because, in the big picture of existence, the human race is one big "team." All members of society are working together to make life better for one another.
However, not every person on Earth is supportive of the human cause, and this idea was evident when an innocent life was taken, reminding us that not everyone shares the insights of unity.
Elon Musk once said that humanity held the responsibility of advancing humankind and that he cannot relate to those who hate humanity. "Not everyone loves humanity," Musk said in 2014 in an interview with Aeon. "Either explicitly or implicitly, some people seem to think that humans are a blight on the Earth's surface…But I'm not in that school. I think we have a duty to maintain the light of consciousness, to make sure it continues into the future."
Reminiscent of the world post-9/11, where humanity came together to offer words of comfort and actions of solitude in a time where freedoms were attacked, a rocket launch seemed to have the same effect on people.
For just a few moments, people forgot about their differences; put the issues of the world aside, and watched Crew Dragon inspire hope for humankind.
Large scale events like the space launch tend to put people on a spectrum where nothing else matters. Although no two people are precisely the same, which allows everyone to create a sense of individuality, over 10 million people (so far) watched Crew Dragon become that beacon of light that there is good when we come together.

Ethiopia army's deadly clashes with civilians: 2016 – 2018
by Zelalem January 24, 2018
The Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) has often clashed with protesters leading to deaths in the country. The latest installment was in the town of Woldiya in the northern Amhara Regional State.
The incident happened during a religious celebration of the Baptism of Christ, the Epiphany. Seven people were killed when security forces used live bullets against the unarmed Amhara youth.
From the Irreecha deaths in Oromia in 2016, which activists call a massacre, Ethiopia under state of emergency slapped in October 2016 experienced zero protests through the 10-month period.
After August 2017 when the measure was lifted the army has been found complicit for deaths in parts of the country. This article looks back, from the Irreecha incident, at the military actions that has resulted in civilian deaths.
The Irreecha Incident (2016)
It was in October 2016 during the thanksgiving festival by the Oromo ethnic group. At a time the region was bubbling with anti-government tension, federal forces were deployed to the event.
The security forces discharged live bullets and tear gas into the festival goers in the town of Bishoftu leading to several deaths. Human rights groups also accused Addis Ababa of using helicopter gunships – a claim the regime flatly denied.
Activists and rights groups say over 700 people died as a result with many more injured. The government disputed the figures. A state of emergency was declared days later.
Ambo incident (October 2017)
About ten people were killed in the town of Ambo again in Oromia region, German broadcaster DW's Amharic Service reported in October 2017.
DW cited Gadisa Desalegn, Ambo city communication head, as confirming the deaths of anti-government protesters, following the deployment of 'Agazi' – a special elite unit of the Ethiopian security forces. Local media portals also reported that 20 people have been wounded, some private properties had also been affect in the clashes.
A local media portal, Addis Gazetta, reported that the protests were linked to shortages of sugar in the country. They shared pictures on showing protesters having blocked trucks belonging to the national sugar company.
The security forces reportedly stepped in and discharged live bullets leading to the deaths which sparked further protests.
The Chelenko Incident (2017)
December 2017, four months after the lifting of the state of emergency, the town of Chelenko in the Oromia region was the scene of deaths blamed on the military. Fifteen civilians lost with about a dozen others suffering gunshot wounds.
The Addis Standard news portal cited the Oromia region communications Bureau chief, Addisu Arega Kitessa, as implicating members of the national defense force, adding that a probe was underway to ascertain how peaceful civilians had been killed.
Adissu Arega said people in the region's east Hararghe zone had hit the streets to protest the killing of an individual leading to the clashes that claimed the lives of others. The security forces were said to have applied superior force to dismantle road blocks in other parts of the region.
Locals, however, told the Addis Standard portal that a notorious Ethiopia – Somali paramilitary force – the Liyu Police – were to blame for the death of the individual, for which reason they staged the protest.
There were also deaths reported in the town of Shashamene at a point last year. The protests at the time led to social media shutdown in parts of the country.
The Woldiya Incident (2018)
The most recent incident happened on 20 of January 2018 during the Epiphany celebrations in the Amhara region.
The official record puts the deaths at seven even though activists maintain that the figure is much higher.
A section of the young people whiles singing, dancing and marching through the town started chanting anti-government protests leading to the clash and subsequent deaths.
People in the town said they had been concerned about why the government had deployed the army in Amhara reportedly since December last year.
Ethiopia army and security responsibilities
The army continues to play an integral part in the country's internal security operations. The government has always promised to bring errant soldiers to book but little is heard thereafter.
The government did not deploy the army at the 2017 Irreecha festival after their presence and actions triggered the chaos in the previous year. The event passed off peacefully as activists mourned those who died, protested against the regime and enjoyed an incident-free festival.
They have also been banned from straddling the common border between the Oromia and Ethiopia-Somali regional states where tensions led to massive deaths and displacement last year.
But an activist, Birhanu Lenjiso, who chronicled the army's deadly clashes with the population says it dates back to decades. Amongst others, the Hawzen incident of 1988, Badano incident in 1992, Loqee in 2002, Anuak the following year, Addis Ababa incident in 2005 and triple incident in the Ogaden region 2008, 2014 and 2016 and the Konso incident in 2016.

G2A Shield – Is It Worth It?
G2A has been in the news a lot lately. After a bit of a public spat with Tiny Build and some fraudulent keys sold via G2A, I followed with interest to see how G2A would respond. I took particular note of G2A's continued references to its G2A Shield, and how users had elected to make a purchase with it would get a refund. But what exactly is G2A shield?
Money Back – Have immediate regrets often? You can get your money back within 5 minutes of your purchase if you want to.
Fraud Protection – Any issues, such as those from the Tiny Build debacle, you are protected.
All Products – It's not just cd keys that gain the protection, but CSGO skins, time cards etc.
Lower Seller Fees – If you are a seller for anything in the G2A marketplace, this is an absolute must for you!
Price Matching – Helpful for those looking to save a bit more money. If you find the product somewhere else for cheaper, they will refund the difference.
Prioritized Service – If you have a question or something goes wrong, this could be handy.
So how much is G2A Shield?
There's two options here. There is the one off and the subscription based, month to month option. It depends on your currency, but it comes in at €1 , US$1.10 and AU$1,49 for the one off and €2 a month for the subscrption. A common question I receive if this is a one off fee on checkout or an ongoing subscription. A quick google on the subject reveals a lot of confusion. Admittedly the G2A website is not exactly clear on the issue, something they should probably look into. It is however a monthly subscription so this is something you need to keep in mine and actively cancel.
If you are a heavy user of G2A then G2A shield is an absolute must. One off buyers looking to save that extra few dollar could probably get away with purchasing from a trusted seller with a lot of reviews. Me personally, I am a subscriber and use it for piece of mind. Completely up to you!
