You get to decide what you would do in a couple of situations, for our first situation, we'll take something easy involving money, power and job security. Let's say you work in a large 1 corporation that believes in team work. You got where you are by being a team player and you like what you do. You make lots of money. You're in a "team" meeting of some sort one day and you're discussing employees and someone some-one brings up the subject of Bob. Bob is a pain in lhe...wcll, Bob's not a team kind of guy. Bob is creative but eccentric, sometimes abrasive and moody, but he has a core honesty that you admire. He docs his job well, but he has no interest in being on a team. He appeals to an independent side of you; a former "non-team" sense of individuality that you had in your . more interesting youth. Nobody likes Bob even a little bit. If you stand up for him, you're going down in flames because be-cause Bob is a lost cause. This is a perfect chance to keep the old trap shut and go with the flow-after flow-after all, the Bobs of this world make their own beds to lie in. But then arc you going to wonder forever after what happens if you become someone else's Bob? What if people decide they don't like you and nobody stands up for you? Would you be "nice" (keep your mouth shut and go with the team) or "good" (stick up for Bob) in this situation? Let's say for our next situation that we found out that our own beloved, generally perfect child has done something horrendous in the neighborhood. Destroyed property, perhaps stolen something some-thing from someone really awful who hates kids. But heshe hasn't been caught, yet. Wc know that we need to teach our kids to face consequences, but on the other hand, you're not exactly dying to : be embarrassed yourself. Perhaps this little episode was accom plished during a moment of high excitement in which your little one was carried away. This is not hisher general mode of conduct, and you don't want him crucified by the angry victims. It would be definitely be nicer to sweep this little bugger under the rug. Have a nice battering session with the little so-and-so in the privacy of his own room and keep the rest to yourself. However, Howev-er, that would not necessarily be good, would it? At this point, some parents go the complete "good" route and turn the kid over to the cops and tell them they don't live here any more. Especially if this Isn't the first time junior has been this high-spirited. high-spirited. What would you do? Is this a case where you could be nice (forgiving, firm, yet loving) and good (confessing to the neighbors and lovingly helping your little monster take complete responsibility responsi-bility for his sins)? Nice is different than good. The business community has adopted Nice as a good way to make money. Success magazine, a general business magazine for entrepreneurial types, is almost religious in its devotion to teaching teach-ing the code of being fair, honest and straight with your employees. If this is applied as a kind of morality in running a company, then being Nice IS being Good, but there's something demeaning about using Niccncss to gain your own ends. It smacks of con artists who sell stock in non-existing companies to unsuspecting retirees. retir-ees. People often adopt a surface "niccncss" to get them through life. The argument between what constitutes true character and what is merely superficial charm has always been around. Good manners can be like water lilies on a scummy pond or they can be like guide lines to help us express our true concern for others. True character is often found in the Bobs of the world, or the parents who have stuck with humiliating children through thick and thin. It can be found in friends who stick with you even when you're crum my and moody and' awful. It's not always found in the rich, successful success-ful business men-although it can be-but sometimes it's- in the saucy, outspoken old character down the road that everybody's a little afraid to talk to. You can't just decide by looking look-ing at someone; sometimes it takes years to recognize. One thing is for certain though, if we fall for superficial and strive for the popular, then our children will and their children will, and it will be just like the pollution wc worry about in our streams and lakes. It will affect our lives in ways far beyond anything we've ever imagined. Stop drinking coffec-cven if you're having only two or three cups a day-and you may be facing fac-ing significant withdrawal symptoms symp-toms within 48 hours, Johns Hopkins Hop-kins University School of Medicine Medi-cine research shows. Caffeine "withdrawal" can mean the sudden onset of headaches and lethargy. So what do you do if you want to cut back? Taper off instead of quitting cold turkey (mix decaf with regular; regu-lar; slowly increase the proportion of decaf over seeks or months, or substitute tea or soft drinks). About 51 percent of the people in the United States over the age of 10 drink coffee regularly; many complain of jumpiness or trouble sleeping. One cup of strong coffee has about 100 milligrams of caffeine. Weight Loss Myth 2: You'll Be Hungry AU die Time. T7 r. Ultrafast8 supplements are filling, l7d.CL. delicious and easy to take.
