Discern the Important from the Urgent
If you look up the words "Important" and "urgent" in a dictionary of synonyms, they will come up as interchangeable.The important is what matters for the long term. The urgent is what supposedly needs to be done right now one, some the other.
We live in an age of emphasis on magnitude and timeliness of just about everything. Sometimes a voice mail system will let you flag a message as urgent. Think: When was the last time you truly left an urgent message? Maybe you were calling from the emergency room, or you were stranded by the side of the road at midnight next to your burning vehicle. These things happen, they just don't happen often (thank goodness!) and most of those "urgent" messages aren't.
The problem with urgencies and plain old stuff that likes to buoy its own reputation by pretending to be urgent is that they get in the way of what's important. When a project deadline at work is urgent, it can interfere with spending time with a child- a task that's important. When rushing to an appointment is urgent, driving safely - which is important. When making an impression seems urgent, it can be being yourself- the most important person to be.

What Is It?
In what could turn out to be a big blow to H1 B holders and those who wish to apply for it, a legislation has been introduced in the US Senate which would require American firms to first recruit qualified local workers, discouraging to employ H1-B or L1visa holders.
The bill, prevents the employers from hiring H1-B or L-1 visa workers, if they amount to more than 50 percent of the total employee strength in the company. In other words only those companies who would employ a large number of Amercian workers will be eligible for H-1B visas.
Senator Dick Durbin and Chuck Grassley, who has introduced the H-1B and L-1 Visa Reform Act, claims that this reform would help crack down on fraud that allows U.S. companies to hire foreign workers even when U.S. workers are available. He calls this bill an important step towards a stop to outsourcing of American jobs and discrimination against Americans.
How Will It affect Indian Companies?
If voted into law, the new legislation could affect the Indian IT companies adversely. It would mean Indian IT companies in the US will need to hire locally for their work. This will also result in IT companies needing to alter their onsite-offshore mix…
