http://www.wikihow.com/Be-Tactful Isaac Newton once said, "Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy." Being tactful is just that — having the ability to clearly communicate your message while being sensitive to those around you and not unintentionally offending anyone. Being tactful does not mean hiding what you really feel; it just means presenting your ideas in a way that would make them the most appealing and inoffensive. If you want to know how to be tactful, then you should see Step 1 to get started. 1 Think before you speak. Allow yourself a pause to consider how your words could be perceived, and to prevent yourself from making hasty comments. You may have an immediate gut reaction to something your boss or friend is saying, but take a moment to gather your thoughts before you come right out and say what you want to say. Ask yourself if it's the best time to present your ideas, if you should spend some time finding a better way to say what yo...

Tact is a keen sense of what to do or say in order to maintain good relations with others or avoid offense. An acute sensitivity to what is proper and appropriate in dealing with others, including the ability to speak or act without offending. It is a skillful application of wisdom in handling difficult and delicate situation so as to achieve a win-win outcome in a face of obvious opposition or controversy. Other words synonymous to tact are diplomacy, discretion, wisdom, and discernment. A man of tact is skillful and choosy in his language, such one would not say what every other people would say nor react the way others would. They are quick to learn but not quickly to speak; they are great listeners. Tact is a virtue and tact can be developed. It is not what you are born with but any one that cares can develop this virtue. In all diplomatic relation, tact is indispensable. Wars and diplomatic shut downs have been avoided in the past because of tact and there is a local adage in m...

Focus is about staying on one thing until result is gotten, being a person of one thing per time. A settled stone gathers a lot of sand but a rolling stone gathers no sand. Possessing the staying power and ability is focus but so much people lack this ability and would chose to be involved in things than a thing. Someone once said “If you stay on an assignment for ten years, giving that assignment your all; that by the end of the ten years you would find yourself at the peak of that assignment”. From observation, it is difficult to have people focus on a thing for so long, some may for long and not for so long; but focus is about so long for long is not long enough. What then are in focus that makes it deliver results? 1. Precision: focus breeds precision, you can’t be focused and lack precision. Being exact on what to do and how to get that done. 2. Defines the flow of energy: focus will make one to channel energy to what is most important. 3. Fuels dream: keeping your eye on t...

In computer science, mutual exclusion refers to the requirement of ensuring that no two concurrent processes or event are in their critical section at the same time; it is a basic requirement in concurrency control, to prevent race conditions. Here, a critical section refers to a period when the process accesses a shared resource, such as shared memory. Two propositions (or events) are mutually exclusive or disjoint if they cannot both be true (occur). A clear example is the set of outcomes of a single coin toss, which can result in either heads or tails, but not both. In the coin-tossing example, both outcomes are, in theory, jointly exhaustive, which means that at least one of the outcomes must happen, so these two possibilities together exhaust all the possibilities.[1] However, not all mutually exclusive events are collectively exhaustive. For example, the outcomes 1 and 4 of a single roll of a six-sided die are mutually exclusive (both cannot happen at the same time) but not c...

Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. 2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there. 3 Then they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar. 4 And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.” 5 But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. 6 And the LORD said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them. 7 Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.” 8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceased building th...

And they [a]sang the song of Moses, the bond-servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, “Great and wonderful and awe-inspiring are Your works [in judgment], O Lord God, the Almighty [the Omnipotent, the Ruler of all]; Righteous and true are Your ways, O King of the [b]nations! Revelation 15:3 The Lamb here is our Lord Jesus Christ; the ministry of the Lord Jesus and that of Moses are very similar in a number of ways and so the song of Moses and the song of the Lord is a similar song. It is a song of deliverance and salvation. The song of Moses is a song of deliverance and salvation for Israel but the song of the Lamb is a song of deliverance and salvation for the whole world; all mankind, tongue and race notwithstanding because He is the Lamb that was slain and purchased men unto God And they sang a new song [of glorious redemption], saying, “Worthy and deserving are You to take the scroll and to break its seals; for You were slain (sacrificed), and with Your blood Yo...

“Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the LORD, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool. Isaiah 1:18 When we call God our Father, this reminds Him of His obligations to us as His family members and triggers His provision in our direction. It is essential to note that new birth among other things makes one a member of God’s household and it is fatherhood responsibility to provide for his household. Any failure in this respect makes such one worse than an infidel (unbeliever) and has denied the faith. But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. 1Timothy 5:8 It is important to approach prayer altar with the following mindset: God is my Father, He asked me to come to reason with Him, and I have an assurance of an answer from Him otherwise He is denying the faith but God cannot deny the faith....
