...Everything happens for a reason, but it would be nice for once to know what the reason is. When love disappoints you.. dare to love again. Avoid being bitter and dare to make it more better like a new chapter. Ang pride pinapairal sa trabaho at hindi sa relasyon, Dahil hindi ka magiging Masaya. Some people create their own storms then get upset when it rains. "Happiness is always a matter of choice. If you want to feel it, then choose the one that will perfectly define it". Sacrifice is the only language of love. Happiness is not a consequence of things that happen. Do not pursue happiness - practice it. Sing, even if you do not sound good. Smile, even when things go wrong. Create happiness, and happy you will be." Di porket alam mong mahal ka niya, tatake for granted mo na. Tao din yan, pwedeng mapagod. It's not about counting the days, months, years that you love each other.. It's about how long you both fight for your love and relationship When someone really loves you, they don't have to say it. You can always know it by the way they treat you. <3 Husgahan ka man ng kahit na sino, mangingibabaw pa rin ang pagkatao mo sa mga taong tunay na nakakakilala sa'yo. Don't give up just cause you had a bad day. Forgive yourself and do better tomorrow. Effort is not a responsibility of a guy. It is the willingness of a guy to make his girl smile. "Dear God, I wanna take a minute, not to ask for anything from you. But simply to say thank you, for waking...

...1999 BAXTER HEALTHCARE CORPORATION Work & Life Strategic Initiative What is the initiative? Baxter’s Work & Life Strategic Initiative formally began with an 18-month extensive employee-needs assessment that provided a far better understanding of how the company could benefit by championing greater work-life balance for all its employees—for women as well as men. Baxter has succeeded at integrating its business case for worklife balance into a new corporate culture that is supported from the top down, demonstrated by strong CEO commitment and role modeling. A major result of this strategic assessment has been that Baxter redefined and expanded the work-life experience to encompass more categories of conflicts experienced by employees. Baxter, in conjunction with MK Consultants, developed the four-level The Work and Life Pyramid of Needs, which rests on a base of Respect (the company’s attitude toward the employee’s needs) and rises through Balance (the employee’s goal) to Flexibility (what the company wants to help the employee attain) to Programs (the supports that the company provides). The study refocused Baxter’s strategy, giving increased importance to and emphasis on respect for the “whole” person, including his or her responsibilities and interests outside of work. The initiative has since added work-life to Baxter’s shared values, employee satisfaction tools, performance standards, and other existing HR initiatives. In addition, the study’s findings...
