Principle 2
Eagles have strong vision, which focuses up to 5 kilometers from the air. When an eagle sites prey- even a rodent from this distance, he narrows his focus on it and sets out to get it. No matter the obstacle, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it.
Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacle and you will succeed.

Principles to learn from an Eagle
Eagles were the symbol of almost all conquerors be it Caesar or Hitler. The reason is....!! Read on..... Inspiration on the "7 Principles of an Eagle", Author Dr. Myles Monroe
Principle 1
Eagles fly alone at a high altitude and not with sparrows or mix with other smaller birds like geese. Birds of a feather flock together. No other bird goes to the height of the eagle. Eagles fly with eagles. Never in a flock. Even when Moses (Old Testament Bible) went to commune with God on the mountain, he left the crowd at the foothills.
Stay away from sparrows and ravens. Eagles fly with eagles.

Professional Image
Difference between "desired professional image" and "perceived professional image"
It is important to distinguish between the image you want others to have of you and the image that you think people currently have of you.
Most people want to be described as technically competent, socially skilled, of strong character and integrity, and committed to your work, your team, and your company. Research shows that the most favorably regarded traits are trustworthiness, caring, humility, and capability.
Ask yourself the question: What do I want my key constituents to say about me when I'm not in the room? This description is your desired professional image. Likewise, you might ask yourself the question: What am I concerned that my key constituents might say about me when I'm not in the room? The answer to this question represents your undesired professional image.
You can never know exactly what all of your key constituents think about you, or how they would describe you when you aren't in the room. You can, however, draw inferences about your current professional image based on your interactions with key constituents. People often give you direct feedback about your persona that tells you what they think about your level of competence, character, and commitment. Other times, you may receive indirect signals about your image, through job assignments or referrals and recommendations. Taken together, these direct and indirect signals shape your perceived professional image, your best guess of how you think your key constituents perceive you.
Steps individuals should take to manage their professional image
First, you must realize that if you aren't managing your own professional image, someone else is. People are constantly observing your behavior and forming theories about your competence, character, and commitment, which are rapidly disseminated throughout your workplace. It is only wise to add your voice in framing others' theories about who you are and what you can accomplish.
Be the author of your own identity. Take a strategic, proactive approach to managing your image:

Be the author of your own identity. Take a strategic, proactive approach to managing your image:
Identify your ideal state.
- What are the core competencies and character traits you want people to associate with you?
- Which of your social identities do you want to emphasize and incorporate into your workplace interactions, and which would you rather minimize?
Assess your current image, culture, and audience.
- What are the expectations for professionalism?
- How do others currently perceive you?
Conduct a cost-benefit analysis for image change.
- Do you care about others' perceptions of you?
- Are you capable of changing your image?
- Are the benefits worth the costs? (Cognitive, psychological, emotional, physical effort)
Use strategic self-presentation to manage impressions and change your image.
- Employ appropriate traditional and social identity-based impression management strategies.
- Pay attention to the balancing act—build credibility while maintaining authenticity.
Manage the effort you invest in the process.
- Monitoring others' perceptions of you
- Monitoring your own behavior
- Strategic self-disclosure
- Preoccupation with proving worth and legitimacy

Personal In-Car Navigator !!
Do you want to avoid roads that have traffic jams and take the correct route without much confusion if you are new to a city? These may soon be possible when a new software product is launched. "Personal In-Car Navigator" has been developed by scientists in an Indian company, Infotech. It is a personal navigation (P-Nav) device that can run on a handheld platform or a device fixed in a vehicle, called personal digital assistant (PDA).
"We are currently identifying the most accurate and legal map data for various cities. On procuring this data, we plan to launch this solution by middle of this year," J Keshu Kumar, assistant general manager, Infotech Enterprises Ltd, said.
Detail road information upto the level of streets is to be clearly defined in map data

Info to share...
Will the month "February" have more than 29 days ? ? ?
Yes it had in the history more than once.
Electrical device is the one which contains passive components like wires, resistors, etc for which the output is always not greater than the input (which does not amplify) and does not require any power supply for thier own functioning. Eg. Iron box.
Electronic Device is the one which has active components like transistors, ICs etc which may or may not amplify depending upon the functional design and which requires power supply for its own working. Eg: Mobile Phone.

- Sweden had 30 days in the month of February while changing from Julian to Gregorian calendar in 1712 .
- Soviet Union had 30 days in the month of February in 1930 and 1931 while following thier revolutionary calender which had 30 days for all months and some holidays which didn't come in any of the month.
