Business can not be a separated from our self.  It is undeniably connected to who we are, as human beings.  For those who act and say “well it’s business, don’t take it personal”, are people who don’t grasp the concept that, actions are a result of people, not a company. Business and people in the organization can not be separated.

The danger of any company is to begin to make decisions that is seen as completely distinct from their own personal ethics.  The business becomes a living entity and is an excuse to hide behind it and make decisions that wouldn’t normally make personally.  Hence the state of our corporate world or businesses that hurt their community/customers for the bottom line.

Lets make a change together.  Realize that your business decisions are a direct reflection of you and your values.  What you execute affects real people.

The ultimate source of a happy life is warm-heartedness. This means extending to others the kind of concern we have for ourselves. On a simple level we find that if we have a compassionate heart we naturally have more friends. And scientists today are discovering that while anger and hatred eat into our immune system, warm-heartedness and compassion are good for our health. ~ Dalai Lama
