Christmas: Tradition Of Love And Sharing

 

Are you ready for the Christmas holidays, with love, when relations, gifting and sharing  are the feelings and  joy of the season? Christmas is the time for joy, love and relations.

 

God bless you and give you the best Christmas ever. Let love, health, prosperity and abundance come to you in an ever increasing flow of blessings for you and those you love and care for.

 

Make this the best Holiday season ever. The Christmas miracle season, brings the movement of money which creates wealth, hope, love and friendship for everybody. Chocolate, flowers, books, toys, all the way up to diamonds, luxury cars, the cruise of your life, are welcome during this holiday season and ever.

 

From the gospel of Luke we can experience the wonder of the original Christmas story. Amongst the shepherds living out in the fields an Angel of the Lord appeared to them and the Glory of the Lord shone around them, to bring the world great news of joy for all the people.

 

The Angel announced the birth of a savior in the town of David. Christ the Lord has been born. Celebrating Christmas on December 25th is a high point in the year. Since November, it is very difficult to forget that Christmas is coming. Colored lights, Christmas trees, Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus are seen all over letting us know that Christmas is coming.

 

Santa Claus has become the human face of Christmas. Children are taught Santa will bring them toys and presents the night before Christmas. Christmas is a time   of magic and excitement for children and adults alike. Santa is based on a real person, St Nicholas, a Christian leader from the 4th century AD.

 

In the  American colonies, Catholics, Anglicans, Dutch reformed and Lutherans approved Christmas celebrations, which  began to adopt a joyful and often boisterous tradition from pagan cultures.

 

Charles Dikens, one of the giants of English literature gave life to Christmas by writing “A Christmas Carol”. Charles Dikens wrote from his own experience with his enormous warmth of feelings. Dickens was particularly successful at evoking the sights, sounds and smells of London. Charles Dikens novel “A Christmas Carol” popularized Christmas as a family event.

 

For various early cultures, December 25 was a significant date: Babilonians believed the son of the queen of heaven was born on December 25. Egyptians celebrated the birth of the fertility goddess Isis on December 25. Arabs believed that the moon was born on December 24.

 

Christmas is a great opportunity for us to treat friends, relatives and loved ones with great recipes. It is an awesome experience to share gourmet food, Christmas sugar cookies, Christmas berry mocha fudge, Christmas sour cream potato salad, chocolate brownie cookies, oyster stew, cranberry punch, traditional baked ham, Christmas bread and more.

 

Merry Christmas to you. Joy to the world, the Lord is coming. “Joy to the world with truth and grace”. Christmas is the most relevant celebration for western countries. Let´s have a Merry Christmas with friends, family and loved ones who join us around a table full of delicious food and drinks and with our hearts full of love, friendship and kindness.

 

As the ancient Magi or Wise men who came to visit Jesus: Melchior king of Arabia, who brought a casquet of gold, Caspar, king of Tarsus who brought myrrh in a gold mounted horn, and Balthasar king of Ethiopia, who brought frankincense in a censer, lets share abundance and prosperity with those we love and care for.

 

From the ancient Romans we  received the decorated tree. During their Saturnalia  winter festivals, they decorated trees with small pieces of metal, in honor of Saturn the God of agriculture. By the year 1531, Christmas trees were sold in Alsace, which at the time was a part of Germany. From Paradise, we received the apple tree, decorated with apples as a symbol of Adam and Eve feast on December 24.

 

Mark Carr brought trees to New York streets in 1851 and opened the first retail  Christmas trees lot in the United States. Franklin Pierce was the first president to introduce Christmas trees in the White House.

 

All the traditions we received from all over the world and different branches of our ancestors, are here for us to enjoy during Christmas holidays with all those  we love and care for. Let´s join around the Christmas tree, to share and enjoy the prosperity and abundance of wealth, health and love, as blessings from heaven  for being persistent and for working to build a better Universe for us and all the marvelous humans who are doing everything possible for every citizen of the world to enjoy a better life style.

 God bless you and all around you. Let Christmas be the best holiday ever and the beginning of higher and better achievements. Jose Damaso Ramonopportunity@searchbigdaddy.com If YOUR future is not HERE, ¿Where, then?http://www.josedwwwebsite.comhttp://opportunity.bloglanding.com/Technorati ProfileGet your FREE copy of Rating Dominator now… Click here! 

Total Quality Management

October 12, 2007 by josedr

 Edward Deming World Networker

Living in Caracas, Venezuela is an awesome experience. There, I lived The Total Quality Management experience. In the late 70s quite a few managers were trying to find their way into higher realms of achievement for themselves and their companies.

I, myself, after working as a management  executive for Intercontinental Hotels Corporation, I was building an independent business which would help me to become my own boss and achieve financial independence.

As I decided to build my business around the book industry, I found managers and CEOs of the largest companies in Venezuela asking for ideas on how to become more efficient and more productive.

That curiosity brought me to Edward Deming´s Total Quality Management.Even though the idea of social networking as we know now from the internet business world, was not used, I started to use it to build my business around a need of high ranking managers who were eager to learn new techniques to take their companies to higher levels of financial and productivity achievement.

I started by talking to production managers and general managers, about Edward Deming´s “Total Quality Management”. These business and industrial leaders and myself, learned about Deming´s success in Japan and how his theories were considered as one of  the main causes for Japan´s economy to go  from the ashes of war, into the new economic leader of the world.

Suddenly I found myself building my business network, talking and sharing Deming´s principles, and becoming an “authority” in total quality management at the same time.

From my hotel business activities, I did have good relations with Ford executives from the Venezuelan branch, who became very important for me at the time, as Ford Motor was the leading american company which became a quality example both for management and production quality, by using Deming´s principles.

That experience and my relations with Ford people became very important for me as I used them to promote Deming´s ideas which were of great help to build my business.

Networking is the trend in Internet marketing. Social networking sites are very successful, because they cater to all those of us who want to share our ideas, videos, photos and experience with the world.Our knowledge and experience are being sought after in the marketplace, and we could help to build a better universe for all and great relationships for us.

As we share our expertise, we learn from those who have abilities we don´t have and we build our social networks at the same time.The quality revolution around the world is closely linked to Deming ideas, teachings, and practice.

I did not meet him in person, but he was very important for me, for my networks of customers and friends and for my business. Besides being the intelligence which built  Total Quality Management in theory and practice, he was a great network builder.

Deming was a great genius. Even before the Internet boom, he built a large network of industry and management leaders around the world who were his clients, readers and even fans.

Deming was a great american statistician, college professor, author, lecturer, consultant and a great help for my book business.Deming help to build a better world is not over. The Deming Institute aims to foster the Deming system of knowledge to advance commerce, prosperity and peace. Since june 16 1950, Edward Deming began his quest to help Japan to change the image of “made in Japan” as cheap and flimsy, to become a world leader in creativity, quality and outstanding performance. Japan´s greatest guru was not even japanese, but american. He was awarded the second Order of the Sacred Treasure by former Emperor Hiroito.

Even though Edward Deming was born in the USA, he is a great example of the universal citizen and a world leader who still is helping us to build a better world.

Whether we are talking about the oil industry, auto industry or any other commercial or manufacturing activity, we might sense the presence of a genius who found a need for better products, developed a system and managerial techniques for the world to enjoy better products and better industrial social relations.

For those of us who are building our networks using the cyberspace, Edward Deming is a great example as he built a worldwide network when the internet was not the great technological advantage we have now.

Did YOU Hear About Wiki?

September 1, 2007 by josedr

Have YOU heard about wiki?

What is wiki?

 As per Aurelius Tjin, Wiki is The simplest online database that could possibly work.

 Wiki is a piece of server software that allows users to freely create and edit Web page content using any Web browser. Wiki supports hyperlinks and has a simple text syntax for creating new pages and crosslinks between internal pages on the fly.

 Wiki is unusual among group communication mechanisms in that it allows the organization of contributions to be edited in addition to the content itself.

 Like many simple concepts, “open editing” has some profound and subtle effects on Wiki usage. Allowing everyday users to create and edit any page in a Web site is exciting in that it encourages democratic use of the Web and promotes content composition by nontechnical users.

 21st century has come with new ways to see and use the fastest changing world of interacting on the Internet. The old static way is leaving pace to new interactive websites, and it is very difficult to imagine life without the Internet.

 After the Internet bubble burst in 2000 there are many changes and nowadays it is not possible just upload a fancy website with some data and information and expect people to come your way. Even online encyclopedias are interactive.

 As you can´t see other users, it implies the need of reciprocal interaction. Nowadays, interaction means the stuff people use to interact with one another. The new web was born when websites started to separate form from content. The new web is about user generated content. New information can be identified and picked by other readers instantly.

 Information is sorted and organized at such speed that it creates unparalleled growth and giving birth to unknown levels of information access. There is a new generation of web-based communities of social networking sites that facilitates collaboration and sharing between users.

 The web is becoming more important than ever. There are exciting new applications. The term web 2.0 which is used to refer the new web has more than 80 millions citations on Search Bigdaddy.

 Trust is paramount to wiki, as it relies on the assumption that readers have good intentions. As everybody can contribute, trust is the most important thing to wiki, as trusting people and processes is a must for wiki.

 Wikipedia is a great example of the new web, as it is the most popular encyclopedia in the world today and its content can be written, edited and modified by users.

 Participation among users is encouraged as form and content are separated to facilitate greater participation. A wiki is a website that allows visitors to add, remove and edit content.

Popular websites as MySpace, myLot, Blogger, YouToBe, del.icio.us, Digg, are only examples of sharing, participation and social networking websites.

 Advertising and promotion are allowed in websites like MySpace. This feature is very important for musicians, singers, actors, actresses  and new entrepreneurs who are using this website to promote themselves.

 The new web brought us blogging which revolutionized the way people interact and share information. According to Technorati, blogging has made the online community explode, with readers and blog publishers giving birth to at least two blogs created every second. Nothing can be more dynamic than this world community of bloggers who are loosely linked, sharing views and information.

 Blogging interactivity and other attributes make blogs a cornerstone of the new web. Instant communication is an enhancement of blogs which allows subscribers to have  information and updates by using RSS technology which changed the blog dynamics completely.

 We are not alone in the blogging world. We can post comments on the blog posts of other bloggers and build relationships.

 Internet marketers are using the web 2.0 to increase traffic to merchant accounts and boost sales and profit. It is important to market online, to know what the fastest growing areas in the Internet and how to use them to help build our business.

Web 2.0 knowledge is very important for us to be and stay ahead of the crowd of marketers who are not using this great new web technology.

Social Networking sites are great contribution of wiki to relations and Marketing. Also, blogs, social bookmarking, video sites, podcasting, are taken by many as contributions of web 2.0 to the Internet´s development.
