ON DIRECTING

No matter how the plans carefully planned, no matter how organized it is and how suitable the people for the work and the positions are, without direction from the immediate person, how can they act?

Everyone is different individual with their own perceptions and evaluations of the plan. Possessed with initiatives and abilities--- they can be autonomous but, this being autonomous of a man somehow not applicable when things and situations require a solid effort of unity and cooperation. Ergo, these bunch of people still needs someone to direct them towards to what goals they must accomplish, together.

Directing is said to be the heart of the management process, a "life-spark of an enterprise", a central character, the essence of all the planning, organizing, and staffing matter. It is the function of influencing (the employees through respect and integrity), motivating (them through inspirations, appreciation, and ideal challenge), instructing (them in a clear, easy, and considerate way), guiding (them without making them feel humiliated and offended), overseeing (the people and the work and their relationships to both fellow employees and their role to ensure that there's no conflict going on -- in whatever manner -- to maintain the equanimity of the environment. And I included the counselling --- to keep them motivated and inspired --- that directing isn't always in a form of commanding but also an artery of bringing out the best of everyone in every opportunity.

This is how vital directing is to be entitled to its fundamental nature of being a continuous activity. It is also a pervasive process -- directing is required at all levels of management from the top-level managers direct the middle-level managers who, in turn, direct their subordinates. An executive function where workers receives instruction from his superior only. Directing is a creative activity of putting plans into action where the innovative thoughts, techniques, and ideas would be utilized to its most efficient way and form. It is a human factor deals directly in taking care of employee's emotions and feelings. It is also a delegate function deals not only emotionally but of human beings and their behavior.

Human beings.. their emotions and behavior is abroad, complex matter. Knowing employees takes time, it needs time. But however long or short the time is, treating them, directing them with considerable amount of respect and dignity is a win-win move.

If Cloud 9 is Real

A cloud 9? I think it's to good to be true. It's just a piece of chocolates that barely satisfies the sweet cravings of someone who appreciates sweetness from different perspective.  Cloud 9 is just a common comparison from literal sweets to a feeling of satisfaction. That's how I viewed it.. that was how I viewed things; rather.  Because from someone's point of view specially the one who've been through a lot, cloud 9 doesn't matter. Cloud 9 doesn't exist. It's a just piece of nasty sweets sh*t that roaming in this planet to make the fool believes that there must be something in sweets. That there's something to look forward to when tasting it. That there's more enjoyable feelings swallowing it.  And that's hilariously true. There's something to expect from the sweetness of that thing. You'll learn to hope again. To wish again. To try again.  Just one more..  One more bite.. Bite.. And when you tasted it again, you'll want some m...

Somewhere in the Past

By: May S. Leynes Somewhere in the Past🤍 Somewhere in the past Where we giggles in simple things Joyful kids playing In the fields  Of their dreams. Greenfields of hope Paradise of lovestory People believes in destiny Struggling  And wishing To be still called "a family". Sunrises bear freshness To the dying beliefs Sunsets set the time Of the rude rules of the tribes. How rain waters the body To make it more fertile Where even rainbows can be planted And harvested, to expunge all the grudges. How often can people whim To go somewhere in the past And feel the melted love Buried in the ground. Somewhere in the past Where respect is evergreen Togetherness is the ultimate goal To share the blessings is the yardstick Of priceless success. Somewhere in the past.. There was a soul glowing Of purity and innocence That sadly hardened After the turbulent journey Where vulnerability Became the munition Camouflaging the bitter core.. Somewhere.. In the Past. #Taurean #poems #poet #poet...

WOMAN

By: May S. Leynes 📸: May S. Leynes Woman..  - a mama, a companion, a friend, a partner, a wife.. (and many other priceless qualities). They can be naughty, tiger, and sweet as  sugar. Can be a parrot, a recording device, robot and annoying..but; they still deserve man's patience and respect. - when inlove.. she, most of the time, tend to give "that all" in her and set aside herself for the love she believes in..  Oh..woman. 🧡 A dramatic, hysterical, monotone when deeply cut but; can manage to stay calm. She's magic!  Specially when someone just dropped by and treat her "saltik" as an acceptable, worthy, and beautiful facet of her being..  ( I used to said those things to myself before I entered in a relationship decade ago.. and I did the exact things of forgetting myself and set aside all my treasured feelings and decisions to support and honored someone else's endeavors.. that time, ironically!) Ps. This is "A Nougatelli Cookies Sent...
