 Life Is Better Than Good—It’s Great!
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) October 06, 2011 When asked, most people will agree that it is good to be alive. For author Rabbi Yitz Wyne, life is better than good—“It’s great!” Life Is Great!: Revealing the 7 secrets of a more joyful you! will change readers’ lives as they discover the importance of living a joyful life.
This book will teach each person how to become a happier person and will empower him or her to make the lives of others better as well. It will help people unlock the chains that are holding them back from happier, productive lives.
Rabbi Wyne believes that “happiness is what you feel when you appreciate that life is good. It is not a selfish or trivial pursuit—it is a very important issue.”
“Happier people make the world a better place. They treat themselves and others better. If everyone was happier, peoples’ marriages would be better, schools would be more effective, and the cost of health care would plummet. I suspect there may even be a reduction in the size of the police forces and we might not need as many prisons or as many armies. I believe happiness is that powerful.”
Honed from 20 years in the rabbinate, counseling people on what makes them happy and how to be happier in all aspects of your life, Rabbi Wyne brings real-life examples and relevant, honest tips on how to be a more joyful you. It is written in an easy to read manner and is attractive and useful to people of all faiths.

Ten Commandments of Business Ethics
New York, New York (PRWEB) July 25, 2006 -– Did you know that SOX was preceded by Scrolls? In fact, thousands of years before Sarbanes Oxley scared businesspeople everywhere, the bible offered a code of ethics designed to keep professionals on the straight and narrow.
Inspired by a decade fraught with business fraud, the National Jewish Outreach Program is reaching back into history to offer Ten Commandments of business ethics. These ten tips, despite being based on more than 3,300 years of Jewish tradition, are timeless and exceedingly relevant even today.
“It is truly amazing to realize that the world’s oldest legal system put such a high priority on ethical business practices. In fact, it’s nothing short of revolutionary. We hope that these tips from the ancient Jewish tradition inspire a profound and healthy respect for honesty in business as was the original intent from the beginning of time,” said Rabbi Buchwald, founder of the National Jewish Outreach Program.
Ten Tips:
An Original Commandment: “Thou Shalt Not Steal” is one of the Ten Commandments that most people know well from history or Hebrew school or Cecil B. DeMille’s famous film (Exodus 20:15 and Leviticus 19:11). Those who place a high value on being honored by their children would do well to remember that the very same tablets that proclaim, “Honor thy Father and Mother,” forbid stealing even a single penny.
Cook Dinner, Not the Books: Numerous times, the bible proclaims the requirement for ‘just and honest weights and measures’ (Leviticus 19:35-36 and Deuteronomy 25:13-16). Reporting of financial information must be exceedingly precise, so that those involved in business behave openly and honestly. Even the great Moses had to give strict accounting of all the gifts dedicated to the Tabernacle (Exodus 38:21-31).
Do Not Delay Payday: Pay on payday and not a day later! Employers are obligated to set a date for payment and pay on that day without delay, or risk breaching the statute known as “Oshek” or extortion (Deuteronomy 24:14-15). It is also strictly forbidden to hold someone else’s money without their agreement or knowledge (Sefer Hachinuch Mitzvah 228).
Finders Keepers?: Not so fast. “Found money,” in fact ‘found anything’ must be promptly returned or the finder is the loser as well. In fact, Jewish texts go to great lengths to describe the effort one must put into finding the rightful owner of a lost item (Deuteronomy 22:1-3).
Bribery: Bribery extends to situations beyond paying off a judge or law officer and is strictly forbidden in business dealings. The prohibition may even extend to giving your corporate football tickets to the admission officer at the preschool to which you hope your child will be accepted (Exodus 23:8).
Shop it Around: It is O.K. to get estimates, but not to solicit quotes from vendors that you have no intention of engaging (Leviticus 35:17). Asking for a price, just to find out if you got a good deal on the equipment you already purchased elsewhere is considered sinful.
False Advertising: Advertising is fine. Misrepresenting goods or services offered is not. Not only is placing a stumbling block before a blind person literally forbidden (Leviticus 19:14), but Jewish tradition strictly prohibits any action that misleads others in any manner.
Competitive Advantage: A strict prohibition against slandering applies with particular emphasis to business competitors. As any good business consultant will advise, focus on your own strengths, not on the weaknesses of your competitors (Leviticus 19:16).
Insider Trading: For more than 3000 years, there has been a notion in Judaism regarding the prohibition of stealing information (taking information that was not intended for your knowledge.) Theft of information is just that – theft. In addition, Jewish law dictates that the law of the land must be obeyed (Dina D’malchuta Dina) which means that activities illegal under U.S. law, such as insider trading, are also forbidden according to Jewish law.
Golden Parachute: Forget your work termination clause and consider “final termination” for a moment. Jewish tradition teaches that the very first question a person will be asked in heaven is: “Have you conducted your business affairs with scrupulous integrity (Tractate Shabbat: 31A).
To speak with Rabbi Buchwald or for additional information about Jewish business ethics.

“How can I be successful in life, dating, and business? A big question. I am sure that everybody on this planet would like to know the answer to that. A few years ago, I worked for a British time share company. I am sure that right now there are many people twisting their faces: “time share? Oh. No! “. I agree – But this is not the point of this article.While I was working there, I took some intern course in body language and “The art of sales”. Since then EVERYTHING i want to “sell”, I manage to. By saying everything, i mean business, things that I want from my wife, from my kids, from my friends and family and so on. How do I do that, you ask? Well, here it is. You can try to use this method in every field, and I promise you it will work ( this excerpt can also be found on Catch4Catch a Free Jewish dating service: As an example, I will use my first date with my wife which eventually leaded to our marriage. Picture this – My first date with her, nice restaurant, candle lights, wine and music (you do need to set the scene first). She came; we said hello to each other, ordered some wine and then the “sale” started. This scenario can also unfold my finding your beshert at Catch4Catch a Free Jewish dating site. KISS – Which means: Keep It Simple & Stupid. This is a very important point in the whole conversation. The more info you give freely, the more they need to think about. You should give info about your self, but try to think about what you say as you can talk too much and give some info that should not be given…at least not right now. ]]> WH questions – As the conversation roles, try to ask as many WH question as you can: why, where, how, what…You need to gather as much info about them as you can to understand who is sitting right now and talking to you, what is his/her type, what does she/he likes…Why is that so important? As I asked my future wife on that first date all the WH question, I found at that she is a “homey” type, loves romance, loves to cuddle…If I would right away start talking about me and my “wild” life, I would probably have lost her interest. I do not say you need to be someone else just to get their attention, but trying to “win” this meeting. Tea or Coffee – Now you have gathered all the info you need, and it is time to start closing this deal. You are not about to close it now, but we need to get closer to the goal of our “sale”. Tea or Coffee questions are BASED on the info you got earlier and now you try to focus on the points. For example: “so what you are trying to say is that you rather be at home then go out to wild parties?” or “so… what do you prefer, Madonna or Jimmy Hendricks?” With this type of question you are now minimizing the info you got to more focused answers. The Closing – You have now got the info, got the focused answers, it is time to “close” this ” Sale”. What you want to do is to get a yes or no answer (depends on the situation) from them. How do you do that? Very simple. Use ALL the info from the entire evening/meeting and concentrate on the particular questions you want to get yes or no answers to. For example: “so what you are saying is that if I could make some nice dinner for you, just as you like, with candle and wine, we could meet again?” Of course, you are waiting for a “yes” here. It is EXTREMLY important to use finishing statements at the end of your questions, like: “so you do like cuddling, don’t you?” Use you head to nod as you ask it..it gives a “mirror effect” on people and they can’t help not nodding back. As I mentioned at the beginning, you can use this technique ANYWHERE on EVERYBODY…trust me it works, but as everything in life, you need to practice and a lot. Hope you can and will use it in your life and I hope you find your beshert at Catch4Catch, a Shidduch maker of sorts with their Free Jewish Dating site.

Have you ever been talking to someone you are interested in dating and wished you had put your shoe in your mouth instead of saying anything at all? Or have you wanted to tell someone that you like them, but dont known how to do it? If so, you are normal. Seriously, many people don´t always say things the way they want to say them. If you want to overcome this problem consider the following suggestions. 1) Remember you will not always say things perfectly. Plan to make a few mistakes, but when you make a mistake don´t focus on it. If you pay a lot of attention to it, others will also. 2) Don´t overtalk. Most people make their biggest mistakes by saying more than they should. Listening can be your greatest asset. 3) If you don´t know what you want to say, take some time to evaluate what you are really wanting to say. This is very important in communicating your truest feelings. Many people say things before they process how they really feel. Your greatest advantage in communicating may be waiting to talk until you are clear on what you want to say. Some people find it is helpful to write down their thoughts so they can see them on paper.
