3. Accountability

Another important part in achieving success is the willingness to accept responsibility, whether successful or failed. If this is done, we are considered ready to accept greater responsibility and reap respect from colleagues because of humility possessed.

How much we give strong influence on colleagues, boss or client will see how well we perform in their eyes. Has an elegant style to support our success is not something bad, really.

Do not procrastinate, set your goals challenging but realistic, and take advantage of time as efficiently as possible.

If we and our colleagues in such a division has been disciplined, there's no harm in always finding out what is most a problem.

Is it a lack of communication among staff, conflicts surrounding the rights of each employee, technical problems, or difficulty accessing the information. Find and then act.

How to approach a gurl ......??

There she is. Just a few steps away... Looking gorgeous, laughing and chatting away with her friends, unaware that a person is waiting around with his heart beating wildly ... unable to walk the few steps to reach her. Yet, you so desperately want to talk to her.

    *      Are you tapping your head to find at least one sensible reason to approach her?

    *      Are you afraid of the icy cool glance she may throw your way?

    *      Are you apprehensive of being rudely snubbed which can shatter your dreams in the fraction of a second?

Hang on! Wipe your cold sweat... and check this out. This may be just what you are looking for:

    *      Firstly - Pre decide that you are going to approach 10 girls and  8 out of them are going to turn you down. This        psychological makeup helps those who need courage.

    *      Secondly just shake yourself up, get up and move. If you don't help yourself nobody can. There is a saying - 'God        helps those who help themselves.' So REACH OUT!

    *


Thirdly - Learn to DARE. Go up and talk to the person you want to. If you don't some one else will. And she will remain a stranger to you for the rest of your life. Remember 'There has to be a beginning somewhere'.

    *      Lastly - Take the response sportingly. Never mind if you are snubbed. You'll at least get the satisfaction of having tried.


DIFFERENT STROKES FOR DIFFERENT PEOPLE & AT DIFFERENT TIMES:

People are not machines. Therefore there is always a right approach, a right time, a right situation and the right things to say - to different persons.


A SENIOR SCHOOL STUDENT:

There is a girl in your class and every time you see her. Your heart skips a beat. How do you befriend her to begin with?


    *      If she has been absent on a particular day offer to help her out.



    *      Enter into a common discussion with her like movies, books, the latest event in town, the TV program she views, preparation for the board exam, career planning etc.


    *      DON'T seem to be overanxious to please her (through you may want to desperately).



    *      Once you have gained her confidence you'll can exchange phone numbers.



    *      DON'T plague her with phone calls or blank calls.



    *      Remember always stay within you limits. DON'T be too 'pushy' with a girl. She'll run away!



    *      Have fun ... gain a good friend. You both are too young for a commitment.



STUDENT OF ANOTHER COLLEGE:

You generally meet students of other colleges at Inter College Competitions or during the College fests. Those are great opportunities to interact between students of other colleges.





         a) Inter College Competitions:

Generally those who are participating attend these events. Here you are already able to gauge 'Her' area of interest (at least one to being with) take the cue from there and approach her intelligently.





    *      If she has participated with a dance or a song group you can always say - "Congratulations! I think your group was great ... let me introduce myself. I am Pankaj from XYZ College".



    *      If she was in the quiz and her team had won then you should have no problem. Just go and congratulate her. If not you can always say - "Hi! I'm Amit from XYZ College. We were desperately wanting your team to bag the second place"
      GIRL: " Why second?"
      BOY: "Of course we were supporting our college to bag the first place.
      How about you'll? What's the next event anyway?
      GIRL: "There's a short break now"
      BOY: "Why don't we all go down to the Canteen and chill ourselves with a C D?"…



You can take a couple of your friends and the girl's partner also and treat them to cold drinks, you've surely made a great headway!





         b) College Festivals:

This is fun time for college goers. It is an informal atmosphere and the right time to introduce yourself.





    *      It's easy to get an "INTRO" through a common acquaintance at this time.



    *      Introduce yourself casually to one of the students of her group. This will give you access to striking a friendship with her... romance can follow!



    *      'Eye Contact" would be also a very effective communication mode for you at this time.



    *      After the 'Fest' is over it generally gets quite late in the night. You may offer to drop her back home. Of course she has to trust you first.



AT A DISCOTHEQUE:

There are a few points to keep in mind.

    *      Don't approach a girl who has come with her boy friend.



    *      Approach only those girls who have come either single, with another girl, with her brother, her family ... get the picture?



    *      Go up to her and ask her politely
      - " I'm Jatin. Do you mind having this dance with me?" (CASUAL).
      OR
      - " I'm Jatin May I have the pleasure of a dance with you?" (FORMAL).



    *      DON'T get drunk or tipsy at the discotheque - shell never give you a chance again!



    *      Be courteous and offer her something to quench her Thirst after the dance.



    *      Don't get into a brawl with any guy at the discotheque. She'll not think you are a macho but uncouth.



SOME GENERAL TIPS:

    *      If you want to approach any girl don't do it the day you're looking a terrible macs. You've wearing your worst T-shirt, unshaven face, sticky heir, how's slippery on your feet or sweaty after a workout.



    *      At the first meeting the appearance is very important. Be well dressed (trendy, elegant or casual as the situation may be).



    *      Looks tidy and smell great!



    *      Avoid wearing shabby footwear.



    *      Be polite and courteous while talking to her.



    *      Don't be a big bore. Just relax ... and spice in your conversation with a bit if humour

15 Brain Boosting Activities .......!!



If you dont keep your mind active, studies show that your brain loses some of its functionality as you age, which causes memory loss, brain fog, and even Alzheimers.

A well-stimulated brain also elevates your mood, which helps you feel better on the inside.

Here are 15 brain boosting activities:


1. Play games that challenge and stimulate your mind. These include:

* Picture Puzzles
* Strategy Games
* Crossword Puzzles
* Card Games
* Deduction Games (such as Clue)
* Visualization Puzzles
* Optical Illusions


2. Reading stimulates the brain as it activates your imagination. Reading also helps with memory retention and problem solving, especially if youre reading a mystery. Also, self-help books stimulate your brain by helping you to think for yourself, as well as find solutions in your mind..


3. Exercising helps circulate blood that carries oxygen to your brain. Over the long-term, exercise is proven to increase brainpower and even create new neurons.


4. Stimulate your brain with meditation.. Meditation has been shown to increase your IQ, relieve stress, and promote a higher level of brain functioning. Meditation also stimulates the prefrontal cortex of the brain, the area of the brain responsible for advanced thinking, ability and performance.


5. Deep breathing helps deliver oxygen to your brain. Oxygen helps you be more alert and awake. As little as 10 to 15 minutes of deep breathing daily can increase brain functionality.


6. Taking fish oil supplements is literally like membrane material for the brain.. The two primary components in fish oil, DHA and EPA, strengthen the emotional center of the brain and boost focus.


7. Studies have proven that listening to music strengthens the right hemisphere of the brain and actually changes the structure of it. Also, people who listen to music are shown to be more emotionally intelligent than those who dont.


8. Writing improves memory and thought expression. Writing articles, blogs, or journal entries stimulates thought processes, which also enhances brain function.


9. Sleep clears out brain clutter and reduces brain fog. When you dont get enough sleep at night, your memory and normal brain function suffers.


10. Painting is shown to be an effective brain booster in that it sparks the creativity within you. Even if youve never tried painting before, give it a shot. Youll find that you feel more creative and may actually enjoy it.


11. Starting the day out with a good breakfast has been proven to supply energy to the brain and body for the whole day. When you skip breakfast, youre missing out on a powerful edge, both physically and mentally.


12. Walking allows you to clear your mind and thoughts. Not only is it good exercise for your body, walking gives your brain a chance to wander freely, clearing it of any troublesome thoughts.


13. Drink a serving of pure fruit juice.. Fruit juice contains nutrients that revitalize and refresh the brain. Juices to drink are pomegranate, blueberry, and cranberry as they deliver more focus and energy.


14. Students who drink some caffeine before an exam typically have higher scores than those who dont. This is because caffeine stimulates activity in the brain, which produces better focus and thinking ability. Dont overdo it though!


15. Draw a picture.. Like painting, drawing stimulates the creative side of your brain. So get out some colored pencils and start boosting your brainpower.


To get the most out of these brain boosting activities, mix them up and do a variety of them at different times. Just choosing one wont boost your brainpower, however, combining and alternating them will give your brain the added boost you need now and in the long run.

Winning interview tips


We thought that you might appreciate some advice on passing job interviews. They're a necessary job seeking evil and though there are some that enjoy the challenge most of us find them nerve racking. We've put together some tips that should ensure that you breeze rather than blunder through your next interview.

Be prepared
Make sure you research or mystery shop the company beforehand. For example if your prospective employer is a retailer, try being a customer. It's advisable to visit their website and look up the 'About us' section on their site. You'll learn a lot about the company values from there. You should also check the 'Press Release' or 'News' sections of their site so you can find out what widgets or latest service initiatives they have. This area of their site will also give you an insight into how transparent the organisation is about what they're doing. They may feature employees of the month here or recent promotions too. In an interview situation all of the above will show the interviewer that you are thinking about 'how' you would do the job, which is what they want to hear.

Be punctual
Don't fall at the first hurdle by turning up late. This is the big interview no-no, and could help you to decide your fate before you've even spoken a word. 'Getting lost' does not sit comfortably with interviewers.

Smarten up!
Make sure you dress smart, plain and simple. There are exceptions depending on the industry a full suit and tie combo might be too formal for an interview at a hip new media agency or for the next Cbeebies Presenter job. Also, go easy on the aftershave or perfume you don't want the interviewer to pass out half way through!

Don't David Brent them
Remember, this is a job interview. You're there to convince the interviewer you're the right person for the job. So don't crack jokes or tell funny anecdotes (they'll almost all be offensive to some one). Remember you want to appear professional.

After the interview
If you're unsuccessful, use it as an opportunity to improve. Seek feedback from the interviewer, you're entitled to it, if you were skills or competency tested ask for the results. This shows initiative and keenness on your part, as well as boosting your future interview success chances, the interviewer may consider you for future vacancies at the company.
