# Life is a full time business; life will always place a toll on your emotional bank, intellectual bank, spiritual bank as well as your physical bank. The pressure and the force exerted on you is always greater than the pull. Others are constantly under pressure to meet the expectation of either their parents, spouse, clients, managers, and so on. People will always offend you and when you do not create an exit for the offences in your life and the hurts, they accumulate to a threshold frequency that your system may not be able to hold, depression, anxiety and mental illness may be inevitable in such case. How do I go through life and still not be bitter is one of the most overwhelming questions?

The answer lies in your ability to slow down, relax, laugh at life and some of your failures and challenges, retreat and re gather momentum. Always remember, that you are not called to always win, and you are not called to do everything in this your brief moment of sojourn and pilgrimage, not even Jesus tried to do everything. There are certain things you cannot change, adjust your mind and autopilot, live with it, those you can change, work on it. This is not home, take it easy when people hate you, never return hatred for anyone else your energy and strength will be drained.

Managers and leaders must expect conflict in the workplace, especially in a stressful work like the nursing, medical profession and many corporate bodies. There is no organization without conflict. Conflict arises because of unmet needs, misconception, miscommunication, misinterpretation, personality difference, abuse of power, different values and belief system, lack of clear protocol and policy regarding work, emotions and feelings. Many times people allow their emotions to precede reality and sound judgments. This leads to premature judgment and conclusion on issues that later escalates and become a wild bush fire retarding productivity and effectiveness at work.

Many chief executive officers, leaders and managers spend countless hours working on systems and structure (programs) instead of the developing and empowering the people (programmers) who make the system works. Leadership experts and management consultants have observed that the problem of organization is 90% people and 10 % systems. Which goes further to suggest that leaders and managers should spend a greater percentage of their time empowering their subordinates, develop and build their capacity first before building structures and systems.
