intention. You may be crude and clumsy, wasteful and ineffective, but if you sincerely try to help, your attempt produces nothing but good. The one you are trying to help knows your intention and is strengthened and encouraged by the magic of your sharing. In nearly every case, your simple desire to help, converted into action, produces the good sought. But perhaps the greatest good is the good that you yourself get out of the attempt. Service to others delivers more joy to you than the joy you deliver to them. In doing good, you free yourself from the terrible burden of self; you escape from yourself into a clean world of joy and light. The good you simply try to do, regardless of the outcome, is always a success inside yourself. Unselfish giving is your most efficient formula for happiness, for you have embraced Eternity instead of Self; you have felt life, and you are now the world bigger than you were before you began the project.

ations and self-directed teams becoming common; with personal computers and networks making information available to more people more quickly; the raw number of managers needed is decreasing. However, the need for good managers, people who can manage themselves and Others in a high-stress environment, is increasing.

B I believe anyone can be a good manager. It is as much trainable skill as it is inherent ability; as much science as art. You have confidence in yourself and your abilities. You are happy with who you are, but you are still learning and getting better. You are something of an extrovert. You dont have to be the life of the party, hut you cant be a wallflower. Management is a people skill--its not the job for someone who doesnt enjoy people.

C You are honest and straightforward. Your success depends heavily on the trust of others. You are an includer not an excluder. You bring others into what you do. You dont exclude other because they lack certain attributes. You have a presence. Managers must lead. Effective leaders have a quality about them that makes people notice when they enter a room.

D You are consistent, but not rigid; dependable, but can change your mind. You make decisions, but easily accept input from others. You are a little bit crazy. You think out-of-the box. You try new things and if they fail, you admit the mistake, but dont apologize for having tried. You are not afraid to "do the math". You make plans and schedules and work toward them.

The need for good managers is increasing.

ice cream, and a piece of pizza from the refrigerator？ W: No problem. Anything else？ M: No, thats enough for now. Hey, our company is organizing a basketball team, and Im thinking about joining. What do you think？ W: Humph! M: "Humph!" What do you mean by "Humph"？ I was the starplayer in the university. With my help, our team once won the state championship five times in a row.

Besides, you need to watch your diet and eat less fatty foods, like ice cream. You should try eating more fresh fruits and vegetables. Dont you think you are not as fit as before？ M: Oh, yeah, youre probably right. From today on, all ice cream in our refrigerator belongs to you. I will never touch it. W: Good! And you should take up a little weight training to strengthen your muscles. M: Weight training？ Come on! Is there anything else？ W: Oh, you need to go to bed early instead of watching TV till midnight. M: Hey, youre starting to sound like my mother.
