See it - Believe it - Achieve it
The Law of Attraction - If you see it in your mind, your’re going to hold it in your hand
Unfortunately, most people think or worry about what they don’t want or don’t want to happen and then wonder why exactly that does happen.
People ask why good things always seem to come to certain people and bad things seem to fall on others.
If you spend time thinking of these people ‘types’, you will begin to understand -
Positive people who have all the same problems around them as the next person but who persist in their optimistic view - ‘things will get better’ do attract exactly that.
Those who get very down in the mouth, negative and stressed when things go wrong - (understandably) attract negative things their way.
You are the one who calls the ‘Law of Attraction’ into action and you do it through your thoughts.
The good news is this is something we can learn to change through awareness.
This Law of Attraction is based around Quantum Physics and has been in existence since the beginning of time.
This centuries old Law has been understood and used by some of the most prominent people in history -
Einstein, Beethoven Plato and Carnegie to name a few.
In our recent economic climate, the debt and worries every family now face - how nice is it to discover that by changing our way of thinking - we can help to change our situation?
So remember, if you feel down as a result of the cards dealt to you -
Your life is a mirror of the dominant thoughts you think

Light at the End of the Recessionary Tunnel!
It seems that jobs are on the increase and that there really is a map in place for new jobs coming up in the next 2-3 years in Ireland.
There have been various reports on the news about Ireland coming out of this recession in the next 3 years and slow as I am to admit it, it does seem like the investments keep coming!
From semiconductor producers investing in their Irish plants to US call center giants creating 400 jobs in the gaming industry, to a Galway company winning a space agency contract, one cannot argue with the facts in plain sight - jobs are on the increase!
Plus don’t forget all this talk of Nano-Technology - however, that may be just a little longer than 3 years!
So whether you gained all your experience in the semi-conductor world or you have worked in a call centre all your life, things really do like they are turning for the better.
Slowly but surely we will get there!

Caffeine gets the thumbs up
Caffeine gets the thumbs up it seems as shown by a recent study by Cochrane Researchers.
Caffeine can help to reduce errors made by shift or night shift workers according to this study.
As all us Nurses know, it’s no joke keeping alert, never mind awake during night shift number 4 of 7 on a quiet Ward on a long 12 hour uneventful night shift.
These researchers reviewed the data taken from 13 trials studying the effects of caffeine on performance of shift or night shift workers.
Caffeine appeared to reduce the errors compared to placebos or naps and improved the performance in various neuropsychological tests.
The average age on these trials was between 20 - 30.

New Molecule Added
Trinity School of Pharmacy have been working on a new form of Aspirin.
Aspirin , by nature, has been used as a preventative action against heart attacks, blood clots and strokes, but the acidic ingredients have been known to lead to stomach ulcers and bleeding. The dominant cause of this is the active aspirin ingredient dissolving prior to hitting the blood stream.
Trinity have been working on a counter to this. Trinity Scientist John Gilmer has been working on adding a new molecule which deactivates the asprin until it enters the bloodstream, hence protecting the stomach and small intestine.
Dr Gilmer is now collaboratring with colleagues Prof Marek Radomski (platelet biolody) and Dr Carlos Medina (gasteroenterologist) to take the drug to the next step of clinical trials.
Trials for this new Aspirin are expected to occour in Ireland at the end of 2011.

Tidy it Up
Please format your CV!
A few key points to note before sending your CV out:
- Font - is it clear and concise
- Font Size - trust me, 12 is big enough!
- Bold/ Italics - Bold is best for titles, the rest in plain text. I find that Italics can be a bit hard on the eye
- Use the tab button for spacing!
- Do not forget the dates, the company name and your job title
So whether you are a Nurse, a Medical Sales Rep, a Chief Medical Scientist or a Radiographer, it helps those reading it to format your CV!
