Be Grateful

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

If the only prayer you say in your whole life is ’Thank You’, that will suffice.

Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.
Appreciation is like an insurance policy. It has to be renewed every now and then.

Birds sing after a storm; why shouldn’t people feel free to delight in whatever remains to them?

Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as a bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.

To be upset over what you do not have is to waste what you do have.

Health is... a blessing money cannot buy.

Think of the ills from which you are exempt.

“Count your blessings, not your crosses, count your gains, not your losses, count your joys instead of your woes, count your friends instead of your foes, count your health and not your wealth.”
– Old Irish Poem 

Take a moment to ponder and reflect…

Always be grateful; contentment is the key to peace and happiness.

Your friend,

Joseph Bismark

Group Managing Director, QI Ltd

QuestNet Mr Joseph Bismark

Profile

When Joseph 'Japadas' Bismark became the Group Managing Director of multimillion-dollar global conglomerate QI Group of Companies in December 2008, the face of the organisation that he co-founded a decade ago began to change immediately. His role of Executive Chairman of QI Group's subsidiary QuestNet also took on new life.

Even as Mr Bismark took over the mantle from his partner, he had already established a firm channel of communication with employees of the organisation and thousands of entrepreneurial aspirants through his popular Gem of Wisdom (GOW) series.

A firm believer in the power of teamwork, he has repeatedly stated, "I am only as good as my team".

A man of immense spiritual character and inspiration to his family, friends and business partners worldwide, Mr Bismark's leadership style is as unique as the man himself. His views and actions serve as a constant reminder that success is not just built on material achievements, but also on spiritual growth, inner satisfaction and peace, which we acquire through meaningful service to others. His musings on this Gems of Wisdom blog help ensure that employees and customers of the company never lose focus of the fundamental values on which the QI Group was built.


What are the Gems of Wisdom?

"Welcome to the blog of the Gem of Wisdom (GOW) series. This is the place where I am able to share my thoughts and reflections on life with all of you. My treasured employees within the QI Group have long been privy to these Gems through an internal QuestNet company email I send out a few times a week, as well as through the QI Group intranet. As many of the email and intranet's readers have shared the GOW with their friends and associates outside of the company, I have had more and more requests to make my little Gems available to a wider audience.

It seems there are many people out there who want to take a more proactive approach in analysing the world around them and their place within that world, both literally and spiritually. And so, here I am, entering the online universe in a humble attempt to spread a bit of what my own life experiences have taught me through these Gems of Wisdom. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them; such is the joy of sharing. Please join me in not only sharing my thoughts, but in sharing your own thoughts, comments, feedback, and even your own Gems of Wisdom, with me."

-- Joseph Bismark

Gems for All

True to that philosophy, Mr Bismark has empowered his team to give a voice to the changes they seek, helping him to lead the organisation into a new decade of excellence. Gems of Wisdom is that voice through which even the most junior employees of the group are able to take part in the evolution of the company and share their personal thoughts. By turning his Gem of Wisdom series into the Gems of Wisdom blog, Mr Bismark has opened that channel to everyone.
