The ‘Work-from-Home’ culture
Today, working from home is not just a dream, it’s a reality, many around the world live. As there are many people who are a huge fan of working from home; as certain people feel they can achieve more working from home. In addition, effective working is not the only reason why working from home is gathering more popularity.
Some say that it would be better if the majority of employees worked from home instead of travelling to a workplace every day. Do you think the advantages of working from home outweigh the disadvantages?
Working from home is a lot more comfortable for lots of people. Employees can save a great deal of time and money since they do not have to travel so often, which means people will have more time for work and for themselves, too. Less travelling will also help reduce traffic jams and pollutants to our environment. Besides, working at home does not mean staying inside all day long, people can choose to work in their garden or backyard, wherever makes them feel convenient to work. Moreover, employees are under less stress since they get to decide when to work and when to take rest. These things will help give better performance to tasks.
There are still some disadvantages that home-working could bring. For instance, working from personal space will reduce direct interactions among colleagues. But the problem is solved thanks to the Internet. As for now, people from around the globe can easily contact and work with others from distances. Another drawback is that some people may get distracted from work by external factors. This requires employees to be highly aware of what they should and should not do for their paid jobs.
In conclusion, working from home should be encouraged because the advantages overcome the disadvantages.
Ans- 2 Honesty Is The Best Policy
The famous phrase or proverb ‘honesty is the best policy’ only reminds us that truthfulness and sincerity are the better paths to be taken by one in life. And the constant practice of honesty results in being an inculcate good habit in everyone.
It is not only the proverb that implies honesty is the best option, but people and legends also don’t differ while advising the same.
Honesty is one of the best qualities of character noticed in an individual. It is the quality of being truthful by practising speaking of the truth, being loyal, following rules and regulations. Honesty is also the foundation quality for other good attributes like discipline, kindness, moral integrity, etc.The quality of honesty is admirable in an individual, just like dishonesty is considered a sin in all religions. The quality of honesty in a person will shine like the Sun provides us with eternal light.
However, the quality of honesty is now what the world has fallen short of recently. Whenever people find themselves in a vulnerable position, they seek a resort by telling a lie. The game of deceiving, greed, and dishonesty has become more common than drinkable clean water.
Since honesty is a rare quality, we can easily spot those who are brave enough to tell the truth. The level of maturity in a person can also be determined by them being honest. An honest person is evident in succeeding in career and relationship because they present others with their genuine self, providing them little chance of complaint with their authenticity.
The importance of honesty is taught to kids from an early age, first by their parents and then in school. A person should earn the compliment of honesty by being dedicated and sincere towards every aspect of life.
The lack of honesty and honest people in society is evident in bringing it to its doom. The qualities like speaking the truth, following rules, punctuality, being authentic, etc. are slowly developed in a person by constant learning of ethics.
Our education system also ensures that children understand the importance of honesty by introducing them to fables like ‘the boy who cried wolf/tiger’ and ‘woodcutter and his axe’. All these stories had one common link, which is how honesty always wins over dishonesty.
Take an example like William Shakespeare, who said that the quality of honesty in a person is the greatest legacy, or as Mahatma Gandhi told that the truth is the reality.
Having transparency in your thought and what you speak or present in front of others is said to be having an honest trait. One should not only be honest with others, but they should also be honest with themselves.
Honesty is the foundation step in being noble as per Winston Churchill. The essence of humanity in the world is also restored because of the presence of qualities like honesty. If the societies of the world were denied any honesty at all, then there would only exist chaos by the loss of order.
The reason why people opt for dishonest means like lying is because of their short term gain results. But in the long term, it is honesty that proves to be beneficial and lasting. A dishonest person loses all respect in the eyes of others, and others also lose trust in them. Therefore, the quality of honesty works as a tool for many to voice their opinions.
An honest person might have to face many difficulties and hardships in their life, but it is their moral integrity that stops them from choosing dishonesty. Rather the satisfaction of honesty and loyalty is much greater than the feeling one gets by choosing the easy way out.
