Do you Lose Temper often

As you know very well, most of us lose our temper at some point. Do you Lose it often. If yes, do you think you can achive best results by doing so ???

I am sure most of the time Losing Temper will not work in our favour.

Still in doubt ?


Pls read...


There once was a little boy who had a bad temper.
His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.

The first day, the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those
nails into the fence.

Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the boy was finally
able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.

The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, "You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry the wound is still there.

Will you agree now that a verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.

I am sure you will find out your own way(s) to control bad temper from today.

Love - Does it help Sales & Marketing

"Praise is well, compliment is well, but affection-that is
the last and most precious reward that any man can win,
whether by character or achievement."
--Mark Twain

Most of us will listen to a cousin about a stock tip over a 40-year
stock-investing guru, if we don't know him or her., isn't it ???

Are they more knowledgeable than the guru ??? of course No.

If that is true, how to excel in marketing/sales.

1. To market a product or an idea effectively, we should neither hold contempt nor dislike other people.
2. Never allow your own best interests come first.

I am sure if we can practice above then it will be difficult to get through each day without abundant feelings of love or just sincerely good opinions about other people flowing through the veins which means rate of SUCCESS in Sales / Marketing will go up.

To SUCCESS.

Are your Habits helping or hindering you

As you know, a habit is an action or series of actions that we perform in subconscious manner. Habits can be Good or Bad. We all have mix of good and bad habits., isn't it?
Most of us would admit to having some habits, that we wish we didn't have.
To ensure that the habits help to achieve, one has to identify the habit(s) consistently brought rewards and the habits which hindered the accomplishments.
Remember, Life isn't going to pause for you while you amend the habits that hinders your performance. As there is no rewinding better change the habit which is not useful.Though Change may not be easy, you can change old habits and form new useful)habits with decision and commitment.
There may be few setbacks. Do not Give-up.

Key is to identify what is useful for you and change to make all habits as useful.

Pro-active behaviour - How important is it ?

As we all know Pro-active behaviour is in contrast (opposite) to reactive behaviour which can be defined in simple terms as follows:

"Acting before event(s)"
"Taking the iniative"
"Exploring Opportunities to Contribute"

Though Management of Professional Task(s) require both Pro-active and reactive behaviour., the task could be well managed through Pro-active planning as it provides structured way of identifying the main aspects of the job to meet the responsibilities.

I am sure most us will agree that being Pro-active is important., isn't it?

Some simple steps which can help us to become Pro-active are

1. Identify Key Responsibility Area and start thinking as follows
2. What are my main responsibilities
3. What iniatives do i have to take in each area.

Once we identify the above then we have to set deadlines for specific task by allocating time.

4. Monitoring the progress is also part of pro-active behaviour as monitoring will help us to change our strategies in time.
