5 not-so-often-shared ways to manage up and have a better relationship with your boss.
You want to manage up – but what you really mean is that you simply want to work well with your boss.
Who doesn't? Especially when your boss is pestering you with questions via Slack after work-hours, or failing to give you enough time to complete projects…
You sigh and think yourself: "How do I manage up effectively?"
This is one of the most common questions I'm asked – and, unfortunately, one of the most common situations that you might face, whether you're a manager, executive or individual contributor.
Based on research we've done over the past five years with hundreds of managers and employees, and the insights shared in our online leadership community, The Watercooler, here are the 5 distinct ways you can manage up to have a better relationship with your boss:
Share progress more often than you typically would.
Your boss is craving to know what you're working on. We recently conducted a survey of 355 people and learned that the #1 piece of information that managers want to know is the progress that's being made on a project. As a result, you'll want to ask yourself: Am I sharing the progress I'm making day-to-day or week-to-week? You can also ask your boss directly: "How can I give you more visibility into my work?" or "Are there any decisions or projects you wish I were more transparent about?" Additionally, in Know Your Team in fact, we have a tool called "The Heartbeat" that helps you do this with little to zero effort – it's an easy way to automate daily or weekly check-ins with your team. I highly recommend taking a peek if you feel like your team doesn't have an effective process for sharing progress.
Uncover your boss' work preferences (even if they don't do the same for you).
We all have preferences around the way we like to work – including our boss. Make sure you spend time asking questions to your boss to figure out what theirs are. The more you know about how your boss likes to work (e.g., how they prefer to receive feedback, when they're most productive during the day), the more you can adjust your own behavior to increase the likelihood of a positive relationship with them. It may seem frustrating (rightfully!) that you have to be the one to instigate this conversation, if they haven't already (they are your manager, after all) – but some people need the nudge. You can provide it 🙂
Here are some of my favorite questions to ask around uncovering someone's work preferences:
- Where on the spectrum of extrovert to introvert would you place yourself?
- What's your preferred way to receive feedback, in terms of format?
- What's your preferred way to receive feedback, in terms of speed?
- What's your orientation toward conflict?
- What time of day are you most productive?
- How would you describe your communication style?
- What motivates you the most?
- Who is your hero? Why?
- What do you consider your "super power"?
- Who's been the best coworker / team you've worked with? Why?
- Who's been the best boss / mentor you've ever had? Why?
- When have you worked with someone and noticed it not going well?
- What do you think you're more sensitive about, compared to others?
- What's your biggest work-related pet peeves (i.e., that thing other people do that totally annoys you when you work with them)?
- What would others who've worked with you say are your greatest strengths?
- What would others who've worked with you say are your greatest weaknesses?
(Note: These are also fantastic questions to ask when onboarding a new hire, in general, and not just to your boss. )
Build trust through your actions, not just your words.
Let's get real: Your boss might not trust you. Oftentimes, a boss' micromanaging tendencies are derived from their lack of trust in your ability to follow through on something. Now, this may not be your fault by any means – your manager could be projecting their own past experiences onto you. But it does reveal that if you want a strong relationship with your boss, you must enable them to feel they can trust in your capabilities.
To be clear: You're not trying to blow smoke or curry favor with your boss. Trust does not mean likability. Rather, you should be focused making sure your behavior matches your intention – that's the best way to build trust. Your boss is going to give you more space the more you show them that they can give you that space. This means taking a close look and asking yourself: How well do I follow through on my word? The more closely that your actions mirror your words, the more likely your manager will have a greater degree of trust in you.
Foster real rapport.
Intuitively, we tend to have more positive relationships with people we feel interpersonally connected with. So, looking to form some sort of rapport with your boss is helpful to manage up, as well. This doesn't mean you need to become best friends with them, do a whole in-depth reveal on your personal life, or ask them a bunch of corny icebreaker questions. Instead, it means you can share about what makes you tick, what you're passionate about, what you like to do outside of work, etc… And, you can ask questions to uncover similar aspects of who your boss is, too. Here are some of my favorite questions to ask that you can consider asking over a lunch or coffee chat with your boss, beyond the typical icebreakers:
- What was your first job?
- What are you reading right now?
- Who's someone you really admire?
- Seen any good movies lately you'd recommend?
- Who had the most influence on you growing up?
- What's the best advice you've ever heard?
- Been pleasantly surprised by anything lately?
Get crystal clear on expectations.
Possibly the most constructive way to manage up is to make sure you're clear on what your manager expects of you. Without clear expectations, naturally, it's easy to step on each other's toes, misinterpret a comment, or be offended by a request. Instead, make it your mission to get clear on two things in particular: (1) What "success" looks like (2) How to communicate well to achieve "success." Here are some questions you can ask to do this…
- What things will I need have accomplished this year for you to view me in this role as "successful"?
- What does quality work look like to you?
- If I need your attention on something urgent, what form of communication do you prefer? (E.g., Slack, an email, a phone call)
- What do you consider "urgent" versus "not urgent"?
- If I have any feedback, how would they prefer you receive it: In person, in writing, over the phone, or during a video call?
- If I have a suggestion about something, how would you prefer you receive it: In writing, in person, over the phone, or during a video call?
- If I have a question, what form of communication should I pose the questions to you? (E.g., In writing, in person, over the phone, during a video call)
Remind yourself: Dissent is an obligation.
Managing up also means speaking up. Your manager is never going to know where you're coming from and what you think if you don't vocalize it. This can be daunting, not to mention implausible, if your manager isn't receptive to feedback or your workplace environment is toxic. However, if you do perceive even a slight chance that your manager might be receptive, I suggest you take it – feedback can be delivered both honestly and kindly. To deliver difficult feedback well, here are a few phrases you can use…
- "Would you be open to hearing some quick feedback around a few things I noticed?"
- "I heard a few things on a call the other day that I thought we could talk through together — would you be open to that?"
- "Happen to have time later today to chat around a few things I saw?"
- "Would you want to sit down and talk about different ways we can both improve?"
- "I'm sharing this because I want to team to succeed…"
- "This is important to me because I care about the company's direction as a whole…"
Take note: This is a general map, not a step-by-step guide, to manage up. You'll have to assess, for yourself, your own manager's propensity to be open to some of these questions and conversations.
However, most broadly, thinking about these 5 aspects – sharing progress, uncovering work preferences, building both trust and rapport, clarifying expectations, and sharing feedback – are things you can experiment with as you aspire to have a strong working relationship with your boss.
The ball is in your court, more than you might think.

Caliburn, also known as Collbrande, is one of the four Holy Swords and is known as the Holy King Sword and the Sword in the Stone.
Caliburn is the Sword in the Stone that chooses the King in the legend of King Arthur. It is one of the two Holy Swords wielded by the Legendary King of Britain, King Arthur Pendragon, of Camelot. The strongest Holy Sword, Caliburn, is the only Holy Sword to not be kept under the control of the Church or Heaven after the Great War, but by the Pendragon family. Caliburn is currently wielded by Arthur Pendragon of the Vali Team, a descendant of the original King Arthur.
Caliburn has a grip long enough that appears as a two-handed sword with a round pommel at the end, a huge cross-like shaped guard and a long blade with a gold colored edge.
Caliburn is the most powerful Holy Sword in existence. It can generate a massive amount of Holy aura that surpasses even that of Durandal and Excalibur and it is powerful enough to be known as the Ultimate Holy Sword. It also has the power to manipulate space, capable of ripping through space, able to teleport the user and others into any location, and as demonstrated by Arthur, the Caliburn can open small spatial portals to teleport its blade to strike enemies from any direction unexpectedly.
- Caliburn is another name for Excalibur in Arthurian Legend and so has the exact same meaning.

The more I stay in private, the more I realize how much auditors waste time on certain things - like out-of-periods, for example. At the end of the day, unless it rises to the level of a restatement, or affects a measure that investors/analysts care about, these out-of-periods are really just not worth the amount of time spent. Sure it's a requirement, I get it; but there's so much more value that the auditors can add instead of wasting time on these matters. And then they'd have to consult up the chain, and that's a few more people wasting time when everyone knows the ultimate decision is that most of the time, they don't rise to a level of restatement.
Word on the street is the attrition rates are actually going down, since the Big 4 are doing a better job at improving work-life balances. This is causing less individuals to look outside the Big 4 and thus fewer promotions that used to be taken for granted. Is this true?

Periyar Memorial @ Chennai
Periyar E.V.Ramasamy (aka. Periyar, EVK, Thanthai Periyar) was a businessman, politician, freedom fighter, social activist and the convener of Dravida Kazhagam party in Tamil Nadu. He was the founder of the self-respect movement in Tamil Nadu. He spread the ideals of rationalism, self-respect and women's rights. He opposed the caste system, religious rituals and exploitation of lower-castes. He opposed the imposition/compulsory learning of Hindi in South India.
Basically, he was a reformer. He decided not to join in vote-bank politics, but both the mainstream parties in TN (DMK and the AIADMK) were a spin-off from his party. You can guess how influential this person should have been, during his days. Ref: Wikipedia page on Periyar.
I went to the Periyar memorial (Behind Thina Thanthi office in Ponamallee High Road, Chennai) recently. I saw a Periyar Library and Periyar Museum also, in the premises. Since Periyar Museum was under renovation, I was not able to visit it on that day. I would like to share some pictures and a video taken at the Periyar Memorial. Before that, I would like to present some quotes engraved in stones inside the memorial.
"Showing gratitude is a duty of the beneficiaries. If benefactors expect gratitude, it is nothing but mean-mindedness"
"One should behave towards others in the same manner as he would expect others to behave towards him. And this is my definition of 'morality' "
"The discrimination based on the system of dividing the producers as 'laborers' and 'capitalists' should not exist. It is nothing but slavery for the workers to be mere wage-earners, instead of being equal partners"

He's one of the personalities I admire… Good knowing about this place, the premise is simple and green. Thanks for sharing the inscriptions.

The greenery in this place impressed me too.

I had no clue about this , thank for all the info Now I know
Rajesh K
Yes, even I came to know know about this place only recently.

I am glad the following quotes from Periyar are not engraved there:
Tamil people are "barbarians" and Tamil language is the "language of barbarians".
If you see a Brahmin and a snake, kill the Brahmin first.
Dravidians should observe August 15, 1947, as a day of mourning.
Rajesh K
I did read the second quote in Wikipedia, but the first and third quotes are new to me. There are other quotes at the venue, but I am not able to publish them.

memorial looks beautiful
Rajesh K
Yes, simple and beautiful.

We need leaders of such stature today!
We need such leaders? He is the worst kind who propagated hatred towards a particular community. Plus his atheism was demonstrated by him garlanding Lord Ganesha with a garland of chappals and parading in the town. I wish he had the guts to do it in Mumbai. Do we need leaders of such stautre today?
Definitely we need such leaders. Don't you see what happened in Dharmapuri. A love story led to communal riots. It's purely community politics. Of course, he concentrated more on a particular community. The reason behind that is, that particular community enjoyed monopoly in every single department of the nation. Do you know the our ex-president Late KR Narayanan was denied a special respect at Tirupathi Tirumala Devastanam, which was a mandatory for every president before that?
Glad to know about this memorial and actually happy that such a place exists.
Rajesh K
Yes, the memorial is being maintained well and is a serene place (all green). There are also a couple of cats for company!
Destination Infinity
Nice to know about this place…
Rajesh K
My pleasure. Please do visit again (my blog) 🙂

However great a person is and however beautiful the memorial I feel that one needs to have a practical use of space in a country that is over populated. I cannot help but say this because right now there is a huge controversy on in Mumbai about Bal Thackeray's memorial. They want to have the memorial on a public ground. A sad state of affairs in a country where open air spaces for the public are in short supply.
Rajesh K
I guess this memorial is in private property. I guess, because it looks to me like that, not that I verified anything. In fact, the place where this memorial is situated has quite an amount of open-space. We can also look at it as a greener open space?

Periyar is famour for reforms at the same time he did say those words SG had quoted above. His followers create problems often, esp. the Periyar statue was placed in front of the Srirangam temple. I remember som Periyar follower removing the Ganesha moorthy from a small open temple in Hosur. Let them follow what they want but they should not hurt others.
The Park looks nice with greenery, but I don't like him!
Rajesh K
Frankly, I got to know who he was, only after reading the wikipedia article while writing this blog post. I can't be sure of what he said or what he didn't say, but as a part of my Chennai tourist places list, I want to include this memorial as well. Mostly for its greenery and the statue that you see there.

Expanding Territories
Well, I am going to do a passing along of a couple of blog awards to five people and hope they each will do the same for five more bloggers.
The awards were given to me by Caitlin of All About Growing Up and Becoming an Author.
Also, I am supposed to give seven facts about myself. So here goes:
1. I am the fifth child in six born living children to my parents. There would have been seven if my mom had not picked up a washtub of water not knowing she was expecting, and miscarried. I would have had a second sister.
2. I am a Tennessee Hillbilliette who is now a transplanted Texan and I'm okay with that. If it weren't for people transplanted to Texas from Tennessee, there would be a lot fewer Texans.
3. I am a procrastinator
4. Biscuits and gravy is my favorite breakfast food (thus my rounded shape).
5. I am a devoted viewer of "The Closer"
6. I am a devoted follower of Jesus Christ
7. I love to "people watch" and interact with them.
Here are four people I have chosen to pass on the blog awards to:
Better is Possible , Cathy, Lost and Found Susan Swiderski at I Think; Therefore, I Yam , Ella's Edge
I am kind of new at this kind of thing, so please forgive if I make mistakes. :)
This week I have been expanding my territory or borders of familiarity where I travel. On Monday, I went to a new place (for me) to eat, called Rosa's Cafe and Tortilla Factory. As you might guess, it is a Mexican restaurant, and the food was excellent. I even ordered Sopapillas for dessert. Yum!
I have not been spending much time out of doors this week because of the intense heat. The weather has been HOT, and promises to increase in rising temps. Two weeks till summer officially begins, but I believe for all intents and purposes, summer is already here. Ha.
Yesterday, I had a late lunch/early supper at a little Italian place, and I feel like I "struck out" when I ordered the spaghetti. It was very disappointing. When you have had spaghetti in Knoxville at Louis' Original Restaurant and enjoyed it, you are spoiled for eating it anywhere else. I had spaghetti there again when I visited a few weeks ago. Hmmm. Oh, well.
Today, I had my favorite breakfast (see above) at Denny's and went from there to Home Depot where I purchased flowers for my new flower beds and also to put in the flower bed around my bird bath. I will try to plant them in the morning. I also stopped at Walmart to buy a small folding stool upon which to place my little round behind while planting the flowers.
Well, that is about it for today. This is Blabbin' Grammy signing off for today. More later. Much love to each of you, my friends and family. Bye for now.

It's hard to beat the biscuits and gravy from Hardee's. Denny's just doesn't do it for me.
I'm not familiar with Louis' Original Restaurant. Where is it located? My parents were big spaghetti fans and used to go to Antonio's on the Cumberland Strip. They'd go there to eat every Friday night and became friends with Antonio and his family. The place is gone. As far as I know they didn't reopen anywhere else.

Locally, we're not allowed to call it "hot" until it passes 95. This is still just "warm." And yes, I have yet to find a good plate of spaghetti at any DFW eatery, and we have been here almost 22 years.

A Legacy of Love by Amy Clipston
Local volunteer fire fighter Leon King agrees to repair his ex-girlfriend Susie Bontrager's grandparents' antique rocking chairs for her future home with her financé and is forced to acknowledge that his feelings for her have not quite gone away. As Susie spends time with Leon, she begins to recognize she is marrying the wrong man for all the wrong reasons.
The Cedar Chest by Beth Wiseman
Decades after inheriting her great grandmother's cedar chest, Emma Fisher decides to pry it open only to discover a beautiful love story in the form of letters between her great grandparents. But as Emma immerses herself in their story, family secrets are revealed, and she must decide whether to share them to preserve family history or honor her great grandparents' decision to leave them hidden.
The Treasured Book by Kathleen Fuller
For the past two years, Shane Broyles has felt God leading him to join the Amish. He's staying with his friends Noah and Ivy Schlabach in Birch Creek, Ohio, where he is reunited with Lucy Fisher, an old friend of Noah's family. Shane and Lucy have never revealed their feelings for each other, but when they stumble upon an antique Bible at a flea market, they feel drawn to each other and to the mystery of the contents found within.
The Midwife's Dream by Kelly Irvin
Iris Beachy serves as a midwife in her district where she longs for a family of her own. When her friend's brother Mahon Kurtz seeks her help in delivering the baby of two young teenagers who have sought refuge in their town, they begin to see each other in a different light. Unprepared for parenthood, the young couple leave their baby girl behind in an antique crib quilt resembling the one destined for Iris when she becomes a mother.

|Memorial Service for Huw Madoc-Jones-Jones
|Just a short note to congratulate the Choir on their singing throughout the Service and providing a moving musical tribute to a remarkable man. I walked into the Calon Lan Centre feeling quite low at the passing of yet another huge figure in the history of 'The Orpheus' , however the celebratory tone was set by the family eulogies and the singing complemented this perfectly. A humbling and uplifting experience. RIP Huw and thankyou Joy and all the choristers.

|Rehearsal night 1/7/18
|My son was over from San Francisco with his family and wanted to give his 8 year old daughter an introduction to some Welsh culture. At his suggestion, we attended the rehearsal last Sunday. We knew that this choir was superb, but the evening exceeded our expectations by some margin. A pleasure to listen to, not to mention dynamism of the director of music. The welcome afforded made the evening even more special. Thanks to all concerned.

We were very sad, however, to learn of the passing of several choristers who, in our 30 years of supporting the choir, we considered our friends.
Congratulations to the new choristers and we hope that they get as much pleasure from being in the choir as we do listening.

|Our Wedding 18/05/18
|Dear Morriston Orpheus Choir. I just wanted to send you a huge thank you for the wonderful performance you gave to us and our guests at our wedding on the 18th May in St Catherine's Church, Gorseinon. As the daughter of a lifetime member ex chorister (Glyn Thomas) it went without saying that we would want you with us on our big day. Almost half of our guests had travelled from outside Wales and most had never heard a male voice choir before. Well, we didn't half give them the best! You were absolutely fantastic and our guests are still talking about you. On a personal note, it made me very emotional to reach the end of the aisle, look up and see so many faces that I have known for years and years. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. So, once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH for being the wonderfully talented choir that you are and for coming to help us celebrate our marriage. I love you all. Sian xx

|A special Christmas Concert at Ely Cathedral.
|A Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful evening.
The ingredients: A truly magnificent 900-year-old Cathedral; The Royal Household Calvary Military Band; The Morriston Orpheus Male Voice Choir and nearly one thousand paying audience. Plus, a wonderfully decorated Christmas tree!
This was a formidable combination that delivered one of the truly unique, unforgettable Orpheus evenings. It was very, very special.
The setting of Ely Cathedral is awe inspiring. So much British history, so much breath taking inspired stone mason architecture and tracery and as a matter of fact, the third longest nave in the country.
This is the rightful platform for The Orpheus. A world class setting, performing alongside a world class Military Band; entertaining an appreciative, informed listener.
The opening with The Trumpeters of the Household Cavalry was spell binding. Heard in so many different settings, but it was here and now, and with our choir. Seriously exhilarating.
Following the Festival Fanfare for Christmas from HM Household Cavalry, the choir responded with amongst others, Llanfair. Very poignant and superb.
There were so many extraordinary moments in this extraordinary concert, but there were two that stood out; just the most wonderful Benedictus from the Armed Man, by Karl Jenkins. The solo from the Euphonium was moving and quite exquisite.
A close second was the organ recital Toccata from Symphony No 5 by Widor. Performed by James Banville. They just took over the senses.
The Orpheus delivered An American Trilogy. Gwahoddiad and Morte Criste magnificently. They were just so moving and delivered to an audience that many of which had never heard the wonders of Welsh Choir Singing. They were spellbound.
But this was a very large edifice to fill. The nave is 250ft long, 78 feet wide and 105 feet high. By any concert criterion, this is a massive volume for any choir to fill without amplification. Curiously, there were 42" plasma screens all down the nave but no sound amplification. It was needed for the best effect.
It never ceases to amaze that all this voluntary. So many hours given to practice for perfection and then the travel, overnights, and the performance itself.
To every chorister and your family, thank you. It is profoundly appreciated.
And wonderfully led by Joy Amman Davies and supported by Leslie Ryan and Ieuan Jones.
And the Afterglow at Ely Rugby Club was just brilliant.
Thank you all for delivering an extraordinary and memorable event.
Wishing you all a Very Happy and peaceful Christmas.

|Ely concert
|Great night in the wonderful Ely Cathedral with the Morriston Orpheus Male Voice Choir and the House Cavalry Band on a dry but bitterly cold night. I enjoyed the before concert rehearsal as well, as it was a chance to get up closer to see my friends in the choir ,as my concert seat was well down the nave. Would have preferred more of the Choir singing than the band but I suppose the band were the main hosts!! Sorry I couldn't make the Afterglow but felt rough with a heavy cold and not wanted to spread y germs amongst you all. So would like to wish you all a Happy Christmas and a Healthy NewYear. Best wishes from us all in LINCOLN. X a

!! History Commons Alert, Exciting News
Former Bush administration press secretary Dana Perino tells a Fox News audience that no terrorist attacks took place on American soil during President Bush's two terms. Perino is forgetting, or ignoring, the 9/11 attacks, the most lethal and costly attacks in US history. On Sean Hannity's Fox show, Hannity asks Perino if President Obama "really understand[s]" that the US has a national security concern about terrorism. Perino begins by denying that her remarks are political, then says that the US recently suffered "a terrorist attack on our country," obviously referring to the 9/11 attacks. The Obama administration is loath to call the US's involvement a "war on terror," Perino says, when it should be labeled as such "because we need to face up to it so we can prevent it from happening again." She says she does not know what thinking is going on in the Obama administration, "but we did not have an attack on our country during President Bush's term. I hope they're not looking at this politically. I do think we owe it to the American people to call it what it is." Neither Hannity nor his other guest, Fox Business personality Stuart Varney, correct Perino's statement; instead Varney begins questioning Obama's commitment to fighting terrorism. [Media Matters, 11/24/2009] Perino had not yet joined the Bush administration in 2001, but was working as a public relations representative for a high-tech firm in San Diego.

Valiant Recovery, CCCCA
Residential Addiction Program
Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario K0A 1K0 | 1-613-518-8131
At Valiant Recovery, we strive to treat the body, soul and spirit of everyone who comes to us for help. The hurts and injuries of people struggling with addiction might be spiritual in nature, which warrants a spiritual course of treatment. Our beliefs are Christian and we offer a variety of biblical based programs. We understand that every client will bring their own unique perspective to matters of faith and spirituality, and we encourage their right to decide for themselves what they believe. All spiritual counseling is optional and will be provided upon request. During the initial intake, clients are asked if they are open to spiritual direction.

I offer Christian counselling specific to the needs of each client. Christian counselling can allow people to integrate their faith into the therapy process while dealing with emotional disturbances or to explore issues particularly associated with their spirituality. Any good approach should be looking to connect clients to the highest level of coping that they have access to. I find that deliberately drawing on a client's faith and relationship with God, can provide them with a powerful source of comfort that can help them transition to greater mental and emotional health.

Many people who hold a belief in a higher power find themselves at some point in their life struggling with doubts about their beliefs. Through the process of verbalizing these faith-based doubts, our experience is normalized and we can gain acceptance of our position today. From this acceptance comes possibilities for opening up to new understandings. Additionally, the ability to call upon the belief of something or someone greater than ourselves can offer us immeasurable strength to proactively take care of life's numerous challenges, eventually allowing us to relinquish the outcome to this higher power.

While most Christian Counselors pride themselves on how many Scriptural passages they can recite and how many links they can make from the Bible to psychological disorders, the Christian-centric work of Grey Matters International, Inc.is grounded in one principle: truth. For us, the work is more about truth and transparency of Christ's message and working on the natural laws of accountability and decision making that evolves from that. If one honors God's natural laws of reaping and sowing around the decisions one makes, one is indeed living Scripture to its fullest. We prepare the brain to better maximize the spiritual realities of Christ's words. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

It is Tracy's belief that we are all spiritual beings, such that we all have a meaning or purpose in life. Just as one's cultural background influences an individual, so does one's spiritual background. Spirituality is viewed in a broad perspective, such that some individuals experience spirituality through religious traditions, others experience their spirituality in a more independent manner, e.g., finding solace while walking through the woods. Spirituality will be explored in our counselling sessions.

When considering Christian Counselling, I think of the following principals: 1. Christian Counselling is offered by counsellors or therapists who are Christians, and who bring an understanding of the Christian faith to the counseling sessions, 2. While many of the issues people bring to counselling are not explicitly religious in nature, there is a dynamic, implicit directionality in the overall Christian Counselling process, 3. Christian counselling draws upon knowledge from many fields including psychology, and views all health and restorative processes and wholesome outcomes, and 4. What makes counselling Christian, is not that the process is essentially different from other r....

yes. I have several brothers- whom I love- and whom my husband also loves- we're family. #notinabiglovekindofwayReplyDeleteReplies

I have many male friends in our church and it works so beautifully! But working in a Christian organization - well, it tends to be a barrier. I wish it did work because there are many men who could offer me so much spiritually as "brothers" in Christ. But with society and the media the way it is, everything seems to say this is not what you should do/be at work.ReplyDelete
However, every once in a while, you meet someone who touchs that Christ-centered spot in your inner being (your heart) and you wish, just once, we could truly be the brothers and sisters in Christ I believe He wanted us to be ~~ without the world trying to make it into something else.
But I rejoice for heaven where no barriers will be built and we will finally be "family" ~~ forever!Replies
Thanks for your honest comments! I do know that the more we model what "works", the more Christ will have his way even on this earth.Delete

I think this was very well said! And I agree that we need our "Brothers and Sisters" equally!!! Having been raised in a very abusive, dysfunctional family I truly believe that it was the wisdom and friendship from some male co-workers and church members that gave me a understanding that all relationships with men do not have to include sex.ReplyDelete
Love your books and writings!
God bless!
Bless you sister. May God continue to give you his clarity!ReplyDelete

Internationalization of Firms from Economies in Transition
The Effects of a Politico-Economic Paradigm Shift
Edited by Mai Thi Thanh Thai and Ekaterina Turkina
Chapter 8: Determinants of Bulgarian outward foreign direct investment
Veneta Andonova, Emilia Zankina and Yana Shaleva
This chapter investigates the determinants of Bulgarian outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) and the extent to which well-established theoretical explanations (capital market imperfections, special ownership advantages and institutional factors) complement contingent political factors, such as political risk and the intensity of bilateral foreign relations. While guided by free-market forces, foreign investment decisions by a new democracy that has experienced a complex and prolonged transition are arguably subject to political influences. The erratic pattern of the early and even later years of the Bulgarian economic and political transition went hand in hand with a search for external legitimacy and speculation about the economic implications of political commitments. This exploratory study looks at possible determinants of Bulgarian OFDI, including the influence of bilateral foreign relations and political risk. The evidence reported here is consistent with the predictions of the general theory of foreign direct investment (FDI). For the case of Bulgaria, the contingent political factors studied in this chapter appear to correlate with the stock of Bulgarian outward direct investment. Below, we briefly describe the relevant economic and political dimensions of the Bulgarian transition. In the ensuing section, we present our empirical data, methodology and findings. Finally, we discuss the implications of the research findings. Bulgaria, one of two countries where former communists won the first post-communist elections, witnessed four elections and nine governments in the first seven years of the transition.

It's 10am, October 1st, 2016, and 23-year-old actor Fionnlagh McFarlane is standing outside a Wetherspoon pub in Canary Wharf. He and dozen or so others are about to embark on a ten-mile walk across central London. With breaks, the route to Hammersmith station is expected to last five hours. Standing alongside McFarlane in the rain is Alex Morgan, 26. He is the reason they're walking. His charity's name, Stay Brave UK, is emblazoned in luminous green across the white T-shirts the everyone is wearing.
The walk is intended to symbolise the arduous journey those who've experience sexual assault and domestic violence go through. It will also raise funds for the charity, which exists to help male survivors.
McFarlane has raised £300 for taking part. He'd been encouraged to join the walk by Morgan, who he had recently met through a mutual friend. To those around him McFarlane's participation looks ordinary – one friend helping another. But his friendship with Morgan is built, in part, on shared experiences. As they set off, Morgan was the only one who recognised the deeper emotional investment McFarlane had in finishing the hike.


text: Installed in the street level windows of the unoccupied 100 year-old Lafayette Hotel in downtown Buffalo, the 4-channel projection depicts scenes from the haunting of the "Four Horsewomen of the Unease." This is simultaneously a cautionary tale about decline and a ghost story equipped with empowering female entities ready to combat the abject. Albeit short of apocalyptic, "unease" conveys the sense of impending doom generated during periods of economic crises. The Lafayette Hotel was built in the early 1900s during the height of Buffalo's glory days as one of the premier cities in the nation, but the hotel continued to reflect the fate of the city as it entered into a state of post-industrial downturn decades later. In Lurk, the hotel is presented as symbolic of not only a pervasive urban condition but also a global fear. Apprehension is generated by the collision between the hotel's rocky history and an uncertain future, and manifested in the residual presence of those who have passed through.

You're struggling on a difficult problem, trying to rack your brains around how to approach it. However, every path you try leads to a dead-end, leaving you shaking your fists in frustration. Casting your attention elsewhere, you notice a flock of birds flying past outside your window. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, the solution strikes you and you want to cry out in joy. But what word could possibly fit the occasion?
Some of you may be familiar with a certain word having been uttered famously by the Greek scholar Archimedes a while back. The story goes that he burst out of his house and ran down the street fully naked, shrieking the word "Eureka!", which can be translated literally as 'I have found it!'. Archimedes had finally realised, having stepped into his bathtub and noticed the water level rising, that the volume of water displaced must be equal to the volume of his submerged body. Using this concept, he was able to deduce a way to measure the volume of irregular objects.
King Hiero II of Syracuse used Archimedes' insight to determine whether his suspicion about his goldsmith using impure gold was true. By lowering the gold crown into some water and observing the displaced amount, Archimedes was able to work out the density of the crown by using its measured mass and volume. I'm sure Archimedes was overwhelmed with his new discovery, but let's just say it didn't end quite so well for the goldsmith…
Archimedes went on to write a duo of books which cover his discoveries on the physics involved with bodies submerged in water, aptly named On Floating Bodies. From this we find his most famous contribution to science, Archimedes' principle. This states that, any object, wholly or partially immersed in a liquid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. From this we can now decide whether an object will float or sink.
Let's consider a block of solid iron and the vertical forces acting on it whilst it is submerged. The only downwards force is its own weight, and the upwards force is the buoyant force of the water. Therefore, if the buoyant force is smaller than the weight of the block, it will surely sink. However, if the buoyant force is equal to its weight, it will float. Using the above principle, we can therefore say that for the block to float, it must displace its own weight in water.
Since iron is about 8 times denser than water, it will not displace enough water to provide a suitable buoyant force to keep it afloat, and, as we'd expect, the block sinks. If, however, we reshape the block into a bowl and lower it slowly into the water, it will eventually displace an amount of water which is equal to the weight of the boat itself, and therefore stay afloat. By stretching out the iron, we have effectively decreased its density since it occupies a larger volume but still has the same mass.
Having equipped you with this hydrostatic toolset, I want you to spend a few minutes considering the following question, which is commonly used to trick the hydro-unaware.
If I'm in a boat on a lake, and I throw a rock from inside the boat into the water, what will happen to the level of the water?
Give me a shout if you want an immediate solution, or wait patiently for me to reveal the solution in next week's post. Whatever floats your boat.

Time and Space 2
Aug.12, 2001
July 11, 2002*
- The original status of the Reality is Timeless and Spaceless.
- Space and Time would be the same Reality self-extended to contain the deployment of what was within it.
- The Spirit looking at itself in essence and principle of being is one. (Time)
Man, looking at his own thoughts is the extension of his mind.
- The other is the Spirit looking at itself in the dynamism of its essence and principle. (Space)
Man writing his thoughts down on paper is his mind's dynamism.
- We see Space as a static extension in which all things move together in a fixed order or stand. What is written down is fixed while what is thought can change.
- Time is a mobile extension which is measured by movement and event.
Thoughts move much.
- Space is Brahman in self-extended status.
- Time would be Brahman in self-extended movement.
- Space may be really a constant mobile, the mobility creating the sense of time-movement in stable Space. The train moves. It moves in Time.
- The constancy and the persistent time-relation of things in it creates the sense of stability of Space.
When two cars travel together side by side, the movement is not seen. A sense of stability is felt.
- Space would be Brahman extended for holding together forms and objects.
A medium is necessary to hold forms and objects.
- Time would be Brahman self-extended for the deployment of the movement of self-power carrying forms and objects.
- Space and Time would be the dual aspect of one and the same self-extension of the cosmic Eternal.
- A purely physical Space might be regarded in itself as a property of Matter.
- Matter is creation of Energy in movement.
- So, Space in the material world could be a fundamental self-extension of material Energy.
- Space can be the self-formed existence-field of material Energy.
In the material world, Spirit is replaced by material Energy.
- Matter can be the representation of the Inconscient Infinity in which material Energy is acting.
- It is a figure in which it accommodates the formulas and movements of its own action and self-creation.
- Time would be itself the course of that movement.
- Time is an impression created by that movement.
- Time is an impression of something that presents itself to us as regularly successive in its appearance because the movement itself is regularly successive.
- Time is a division or a continuum upholding the continuity of movement and yet marking off its succession.
- Time could be a dimension of Space necessary for the complete action of the Energy but not understood by us as such because it is seen by our conscious subjectivity as something itself subjective, felt by our mind, not perceived by our senses.
- Therefore, Time is not recognised as a dimension of space.
- Space, therefore, has an appearance to us of a sense created or sense perceived objective extension.
- Spirit is the fundamental reality.
- Therefore Time and Space are conceptive conditions under which the Spirit sees its own movement.
- Time and Space must be fundamental conditions of the Spirit itself which assumes a different appearance or status according to the status of consciousness in which they manifest.
- There is a different Time and Space for each status of our consciousness and even different movements of Time and Space within each status.
- All these would be renderings of a fundamental spiritual reality of Time-Space.
- When we go behind physical space, we become aware of an extension. While sitting in a train, there is a sense of stability. Peeping out of the window, we see the train in movement. Coming out of physical space is similar to that. While in concentration we sometimes feel a movement. It is that.
- All these movements are based on this extension.
- This extension is spiritual, not material. When we see the world inside, we see it spiritually, not physically.
- It is Self or Spirit containing all action of its own Energy.
- This origin of basic reality of Space begins to become apparent when we draw back from the physical.
- For then we become aware of a subjective Space-extension in which mind itself lives and moves and which is other than the physical Space-Time.
Having drawn back.
- Yet there is an interpenetration. There is an interpenetration between the local municipality, state and central governments so that it is possible to move one from the other.
- Our mind can move in its own space in such a way as to effectuate a movement also in space of Matter. This means our thought can move things elsewhere.
- Or, it can act upon something distant in space of Matter.
- In a still deeper condition of consciousness, we are aware of a pure spiritual Space.
This can be likened to central government or Prime Minister's office.
- In this awareness, Time may no longer seem to exist.
- There all movement ceases.
- If there is a movement or happening, it can take place independent of any observable Time sequence.
- We can go behind Time by a similar inward motion drawing back from the physical.
We can appeal to a higher court which is like going behind space. We cannot appeal against the supreme court which is like going behind Time. Procedurally, it is not possible, but one can move the President or Parliament. One can go behind Time but not easy.
- From here, we can see it without being involved in it.
- We observe that Time observation and Time movement are relative, but Time itself is real and eternal.
- Time observation depends not only on the measure used, but on the consciousness and the position of the observer. Very much like interpretation of law depending on the judge.
- Moreover, each state of consciousness has a different Time relation. Each state may have differing laws.
- Time in Mind consciousness and Mind Space has not the same sense and measure of its movements as in physical Space.
- It moves there quickly or slowly according to the state of the consciousness.
- Each state of consciousness has its own Time.
- And yet there can be relations of Time between them.
- When we go behind the physical surface, we find several different Time statuses and Time movements co-exist in the same consciousness.
- This is evident in dream Time.
- In the dream, a long sequence of happenings can occur in a few second of physical Time.
- There is then a certain relation between different Time statuses but no ascertainable correspondence of measure.
- It would seem as if Time has objective reality.
- It seems Time depends upon whatever condition may be established by action of consciousness in its relation to status and motion of being.
- Time would seem to be purely subjective.
- Space also would appear by mental relation of Mind - Space, Matter - Space to be subjective.
- Time and Space are original spiritual extensions.
- This is rendered by mind in its purity into a subjective mind-field.
- It is rendered by sense mind into an objective field of sense perception.
- Subjectivity and objectivity are only two sides of one consciousness.
- The cardinal fact is that any given Time or Space or any given Time-Space as a whole is a status of being.
- In this status of being, there is a movement of consciousness and force of being.
- This is a movement that creates or manifests events and happenings.
- It is the relation of consciousness that sees and the force that formulates happenings.
- This is a relation inherent in the status.
- This status determines the sense of Time and creates awareness of Time-movement, Time-relation, Time-measure.
- There is a fundamental truth of the original status of Time.
- It is behind all its variations.
- This is nothing but the eternity of the Eternal. To understand the eternity of the Eternal and the infinity of the Infinite helps.
- The fundamental truth of Space, the original sense of its reality, is the infinity of the Infinite.
- The Being can have three different states of its consciousness with regard to its own eternity.
- The first is that in which there is the immobile status of the Self in its essential existence, Self absorbed or self-conscious, but in either case without development of consciousness in movement or happening.
- This is what we distinguish as timeless eternity.
- The second is the whole consciousness of the successive relations of all things belonging to a destined or an actually proceeding manifestation, in which what we call past, present and future stand together as on a map or settled design or very much as an artist or painter or architect might hold all the details of his work viewed as a whole intended or reviewed in his mind or arranged in a plan for execution.
- This is the stable status of simultaneous integrality of Time.
- This seeing of Time is not at all part of our normal awareness of events as they happen, though our view of the past, because it is already known and can be regarded in the whole, may put on something of this character.
- However, we know that this consciousness exists.
- It exists because it is possible in an exceptional state to enter into it and see things from the viewpoint of this simultaneity of Time-Vision.
- The third status is that of a processive movement of Consciousness-Force and its successive working out of what has been seen by it in the vision of the Eternal.
- This is the Time movement.
- It is in one and the same Eternity that this triple status exists and the movement takes place.
- There are not really two eternities, one an eternity of status, another eternity of movement.
- But there are different statuses or positions taken by consciousness with regard to the one Eternity.
- For it can see the whole Time development from outside or from above the movement.
- It can take a stable position within the movement or see the before and after in a fixed, determined or destined succession.
- Or, it can take a mobile position in the movement, itself move with it from moment to moment and see all that has happened receding back into the past and all that has to happen coming towards it from the future.
- Or else, it may concentrate on the moment it occupies and see nothing but what is in the moment and immediately around and behind it.
- All these positions can be taken by the being of the Infinite in a simultaneous vision or experience.
- It can see Time from above and inside Time, exceeding it and not within it.
- It can see the Timeless develop the Time-Movement without ceasing to be timeless.
- It can embrace the whole movement in a static and dynamic vision and put out at the same time something of itself into the moment-vision.
- This simultaneity may seem to the finite consciousness tied to the moment-vision as a magic of the Infinite, a magic of Maya.
- This is so to its own way of perception which needs to limit, to envisage one status only at a time in order to harmonize, as it would give a sense of confused and inconsistent unreality.
- But to an infinite consciousness such as integral simultaneity of vision and experience it would be perfectly logical and consistent.
- All could be elements of a whole-vision capable of being closely related together in a harmonious arrangement.
- This is a multiplicity of view bringing out the unity of the thing seen, a diverse presentation of concomitant aspects of One Reality.
- If there can be this simultaneous multiplicity of self-presentation of one Reality, we see that there is no impossibility in the co-existence of a Timeless Eternal and a time Eternity.
- It would be the same Eternity viewed by a dual self-awareness and there could be no opposition between them.
- It would be a correlation of two powers of the self-awareness of the infinite and eternal Reality.
- It is a power of status and non-manifestation, a power of self-effective action and movement and manifestation.
- Their simultaneity is contradictory and difficult to reconcile to our finite surface seeing.
- The simultaneity would be intrinsic and normal to the Maya.
- Maya is the eternal self-knowledge and all-knowledge of Brahman, the eternal and infinite knowledge and wisdom-power of the Ishwara.
- Ishwara is the consciousness-force of the self-existent Sachchidananda.

BBC announced that they would be creating this amazing Micro:bit project. It was put on the news and it was announced for their 'Make It Digital' campaign. With all of this in mind, I wanted to see how the current year 5 and 6's were doing with their programming knowledge. I decided that I would host a number of free Saturday 'Hackathons' at Uppingham Community College. We had roughly 20 students turn up to this event and even had some adults come a long so that they could see how it can be taught in a classroom environment / code club.
The basics of the event required the students to understand how computers give instructions. I would use my KS2 curriculum to introduce them to the basics of TouchDevelop. In order to give students access to TouchDevelop.com I created a single login which all of the students could use.
We started with the basics such as moving a turtle around, but the students moved on quite quickly. They were applying maze's as a background and writing out algorithms which would program a turtle to move into difficult locations. They soon got to understand how 'stupid' computers can be! They now understand that computers only act based on the instructions that they are given. At the end of the session I asked all of the students what they thought of the session and they thoroughly enjoyed the session. I was delighted to see that they were all getting something from the coding event. I'm now looking forward to trying some new things on the 27th of June. We still have a number of spaces for year 4 through to year 6 and you can sign up your students here. Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any difficulties with this link. This video shows some of the activities which the students were able to complete and even how they enjoyed it at the end. Each student is holding out a print out of their code and how far they got into the challenge!
