Marijuana and Compounded Relaxation

Some of the most productive people in the world engage in what is known as “relaxed alertness.” They are able to take full and total pride in their work and even their rest periods are spent physically resting their bodies while psychologically and mentally they are ready to get up and ready for the off at a moment’s notice. It is this relaxed state of alertness which allows them to go from rest to work to rest again without having to boost and then subdue their own energy. They become appreciatively both awake and rested at all times of the day. This is a powerful gift to have, one that is subsequently destroyed by repeated marijuana use. Why? The reason is that of compounded relaxation.

We have all heard of how you can compound your money if you save it in your local bank or money market fund. However, lots of things can be compounded over time, especially in ways that they were never meant to be compounded. One of these is relaxation. If you compound relaxation, you end up in a sort of daze or dead state or overtly self satisfied form of laziness. This is not a normal human state to be in, at least not when you are healthy. This state is caused by multiple marijuana abuse.

What makes a difference between marijuana and the decision to just be lazy? First of all, if you are outright deciding to be lazy, there is not a lot of difference. When you subject yourself to drug abuse, you are essentially allowing the world to take responsibility for your life for you, and you do not care about the outcome. It is a sense of wanting or needing to let go and not be in charge anymore. While that may be a temporary feeling of relief, it soon becomes what it is: a way to let go of responsibility over your own life. At that point, you really do not have a right to complain about what the world then does with your life. You already gave it up.

CMM Technology supports employee drug & alcohol testing, and our drug test and alcohol breathalyser tests show this support.

Regular Payments and Income

At this point in time, we would like to point out some investment basics which apply to every other part of your life, and which seem to be consistently and continually forgotten in today’s world of rushing about and attempting to come out with the next biggest thing to satisfy the consumer market. It is not, in fact, about always kicking out some new model or some new and innovative gimmick. It is about dependability and stability, especially in the instability of the world market today. It is important to be that lighthouse flashing out safety warnings in the midst of the storm. It is not important to come up with a bigger and better storm.

In investment, you put in a set amount of dollars or whatever currency you trade in, and the interest, dividends or payments from this principal is supposed to come in on a regular basis, as regular payments and regular income. Some investments have varied monthly payments as different stocks or bonds within the fund come due at different times, while others have steady continuous payments at a fixed price, such as an individual investment in a bond or a certificate of deposit at your bank.

The point is that, while the money is free and liquid and within your grasp, yes you can perhaps grow it in certain ways, but you are far more likely to spend it, and the ways that you can grow it quickly are unreliable, uninsured, and not steady and continuous. In business, the sort of investment you put into your entrepreneurship and your employees and your customers should carry the same safety and bonds as this steady type of financial investment, which is much more likely to actually yield good results and safe, steady growth of your money.

CMM Technology provides drug and alcohol testing equipment to businesses throughout Australia and select countries, and our products are high quality and reliable, just like a safe investment. In addition to that, our company itself is steady and dependable, and we are prepared to do business with you for many years to come.

Is Goal Setting Detrimental?

We are all often told to be sure to set goals and remember important milestones in our lives which we would like to meet. This is all very well and good…and a little trite…but what happens when these goals continually fall through, and nobody believes that their goals will actually be accomplished? It sure sounds as if there is a missing step in this process. There is. Goal setting involves one more factor which is necessary to both personal and professional development: believability. Believability is the amount that a given goal seems realistic or attainable to you. It does not matter how attainable it seems to someone else. It only matters what your own opinion of it is. If it does not seem to be attainable in your own mind, then you are actually pushing the goal away, both with your energy and your actions, because you do not want to invest any further in it until you believe that it can actually be accomplished.

In the workplace, believability holds just as much if not more sway. Not only do you have to set goals which seem realistic and attainable to your own mind, but if you announce them publicly, they must be goals which seem attainable to the minds of relevant peers in your life. If not, their scorn alone can cause you to lose hope and just give up. At this point in time, remember that it is not what type of goal it is that matters, but your willingness to push through all obstacles to get to it that matters. At this point in time, remember that goals are meant to be challenging, rather than easy steps up. If they were easy steps up, rather than a craggy mountain to climb, they would be items on your to-do list, rather than goals for the future. They would not bear much importance at all.

Set goals for your company policies by investing in better drug and alcohol test prices. The cost of drug and alcohol testing does not have to be high. Purchase our drug tests, our LifeLoc FC10 personal breathalyser devices, our Medix equipment, and our Oraline drug tests.

Diplomacy and Wisdom

In wartime, strategy is almost as important as numbers, technology and brute force. For example, if a battle absolutely must be lost, it is far better to retreat or surrender and then return later on with renewed troops, supplies and intelligence, rather than losing more lives trying to win a losing battle. Strategy is always this important, because it means that the individual or leadership can view reality for what it really is and manipulate their armies to more relevant and important places, losing as few lives as possible. Wisdom and diplomacy tie hand in hand, for without one it is very difficult to develop the other. Wisdom means that you are able to see the depth and reason behind certain situations and people, and you are able to act based upon the core reason rather than based upon the perceived reason. Diplomacy means that you take your decision and present it to others in the most effective and efficient manner, while also keeping their own humanity and emotional reactions in mind.

In business, wisdom see beyond all of the progress reports and actually looks at real situations and real people and who is influential and who is not. Diplomacy may or may not involve kissing up, but it certainly involves behaving kindly and generously, even when customers, coworkers or even executives are cranky, difficult, or incompetent. The two of these working together, wisdom and diplomacy, form a wonderful union based upon self reliance and competency. When implementing drug and alcohol testing, wisdom and diplomacy come into play here, as well. For example, wisdom would make an employer expect a certain amount of employee turnover and prepare him or her for proper methods of determining recruitment and job safety. Diplomacy would involve using drug tests as a scientific evaluation, rather than giving in to emotion and hiring and firing people based purely upon gut instinct and likeability.
