At the same point in time one has to be so confident & clear about all that they cannot afford to do at all. Of course this does not mean you become an open book, a certain degree of unpredictability may leave you at the center stage, but then there are certain attributes that must be out loudly communicated so as to remain focused on your personal aspirations & professional goals. In order to arrive at the level of principled characteristics, one can draft some clear Do's & Don'ts for themselve...

  Modern Day Mindset (Self proclaimed blindness towards intentions of people around) Flight over fight Move to next available option than to talk & iron out issues. Deploying EEE. OEE, is a technical term "Original Equipment Experience'' can also be reviewed as EEE,  Existing Employees Experience , is a policy whereby next & new options will be treated & handled like to squeeze out oil from not only the coconut but from the coconut shell as well. The experience with the existing employees those who have stayed for a very long period of time must have been so tiring & exhausting that while nothing can be done to change it or make it better what can be done here is to find a new option and rule them with a policy derived from all bad & ugly experience while remaining helpless at the hands of those sets of long standing employees. All the philosophies around the world is busy preaching the same theories, when you have other options that appears to be...

  Psychological Deficiencies As one may remain open & considerate enough with their own understanding & view, it will be realized that not everyone around is capable of evaluating things & aspects of various complexities around with a fraction of future. In other words, those who are living by the principle of making most of the present moment, they are so immune to not only the immediate losses but are totally devoid of the catastrophic impact of their choice in near or distant future. Just like how color blindness works as a physical deficiency, greed to make the most out of the present moment, applies a blind fold on their reasoning, understanding & even admitting to the fact that there are probabilities beyond today & that it cannot be overlooked. The given psychological deficiency is so deep rooted into their personality that they are totally immune to the surroundings, neither can they phantom the intentions of people around nor can they evaluate...

  Basic Principles of Competition Irrespective of brands & individuals aspirations, competition has existed since time immemorial. Moreso it becomes important to realize that timing is a very crucial factor in remaining relevant in every type of the competition. And that brings us to some basic principles that can be equally applied on micro as well as macro level. A) Understanding your consumers mindset:  The entire business model revolves around the theory, which itself is evolving, any business model that must have carried out a proper  Value Stream Mapping,  can easily testify how many NVA's they were able to identify & remove that they must have been religiously practicing for decades. Anything and everything that any business is involved in & is not adding any value to the consumer, or the end user than it automatically becomes an absolute waste of time & resources. Dump it or it may remain the bottleneck of your business forever. Toda...

  Narcissist, A grown up child! In professional as well as personal interactions it is important to have identified some of the narcissistic individuals around & have clear understanding of their lack of maturity to display a behavior rooted in empathy & compassion. So no matter how heartfelt & emotional side of yours that you may have expressed to them, it wont make any difference to them. The reason is that they can only see, understand & reason from their needs, & that goes to say that needs of everyone else around are insignificant to them. Hence it becomes important to analyze & understand how a Narcissistic person, think, reason & act. A)  A two your old toddler only understand their needs to eat, sleep & play. If they want a toy they want it irrespectively, if they want to watch cartoons on tv, that's what they will stick to, if not they will continue to cry & make all possible nuisance around them. A narcissistic ...

No I have more "things" that I like I like Sun gazing I like mountains I like sitting at beach I like loud music I like to watch people dancing Okay wait, we are here, after a long list of things & nature, we are reading something about us, we the people, right? Yes, I like listening to the people who are sharing their life experiences. I like people when they are getting out of their comfort zone & doing what is necessary. I like people when they are enjoying their delicious food. I like people when they are expecting to be checked out when they have dressed up nicely or differently. I like people when they are talking about their pride taking moments given by their kids, siblings or partners. I like people when they are excited about their dreams & goals, pursuing or achieving....
