Is it because you think you will make a mistake or is it because you think no one else makes them? Either way, both of the thoughts are wrong to carry with you. These thoughts will stop you at the spot and not allow you to move forward! So what to do if you are scared to speak in public? Breathe properly, master your subject, and be yourself. I have spoken and recited poems in front of thousands...
If you realized how important it is to meet the right people in your life, you will never waste your time with the “wrong” ones. Who are wrong people actually? I believe it’s those people who don’t talk about anything but negativity, it’s those who go on and on about how life sucks, and they haven’t gotten any chance from life to move ahead. Actually, negative...
Gone are the days of how a news about you reached other people via snail mail or other means. Now it takes a few seconds before your whole life is put on a plate for others to enjoy (or criticize). At the end of the day it’s your job to create a reputation of yourself. Absolutely no one else has that in their hands but you. If you want to be known as trustworthy, then do something that...
How comforting is the feeling of having a bed that’s cushiony and silky and for a moment imagine the amazing sleep on such a bed. Now imagine for a second that somewhere on that cushiony bed is a tiny needle. What will it do? Does it matter that the rest of the bed is comfortable? No, of course not. The tiny needle, whenever your body comes across it, will cause you pain and annoy you...
There are times when you are standing right across someone who has nothing better to do than to bombard you with their toxic speech and thoughts. And there is absolutely nothing worse than you standing there listening to them. Because no matter how mentally strong you think you are, you will be affected. Your time is precious and that time is better spent on positive thoughts and doing something...
Someone once said that only dead fish go with the flow, and boy what an amazing piece of advice that is. If we look around us, we often hear people saying that you just can’t be different because it’s not ok to be the odd one out. What will everyone else think or say? Yes, I agree that sometimes it seems awkward and scary to try a different approach to reach a specific goal. Obviously...

Well even if you don’t think like that, our routine sometimes makes us like that… like tiny ants doing our routine work. Here are three tips to a more happier you:- 1- Get rid of negative people Stop talking to people who only talk about the worst that can happen and start associating with people...
Having a job is essential. It provides bread and butter on the table, and keeps things going. But the reality is that the world isn’t perfect, and sometimes you can be in a job that you don’t like at all. Obviously one should realize that having a job in itself is a blessing, and not everyone has a place to go to everyday. But that shouldn’t keep you glued to something you dread...
There are as many tips as there are people in this world when it comes to the ideas around starting a new business. Here are just my tips from the experience I have gathered from the past decade of launching products and working in different niches all together. Tip nr 1 : Know that you have a market This is the most important bit in my view. Just because your mum thinks your idea rocks...
We all realize that the human brain is a powerful organ. When used to its full potential, it can do wonders, but when even an atom’s weight of negative thought comes in it, everything starts going wrong. That’s exactly what the reason is behind us being successful or unsuccessful. Obviously the fact that our surroundings, environment and opportunities also play a role, we just...
The human nature has within itself something that bogs us down and makes us totally unaware of why we are not moving forward. That very nature is also something that makes us into a very negative person and makes us totally oblivious to the things we are blessed with. That very nature as the subject hints is, jealousy. There has never come out anything good in being jealous of someone else...
The sense of selfworth is something that comes into the mind of a person who knows the true value of being blessed with a good health. There is absolutely nothing more valuable that can make you realize your value than seeing people around you who haven’t gotten the things you are blessed with. If we value ourselves by the number of 000’s after that digit in our bank account, then we...
There are always the right and wrong reasons for everything. An honest intention as to why we do what we do, counts a lot and defines what the outcome of our decision will be. When it comes to being financially independent, well who doesn’t want that. Everyone in one form or another, wishes to be presented opportunities that make them get away from the everyday routine work and decide for...
In the world we are living in, everyone is trying to use someone as a ladder to reach the top. There is nothing wrong in it, unless you are doing it for the wrong reasons. If you are a genuine person, who has a thankful nature, you will use the other person to reach a higher goal and in return be loyal enough to not forget the people that helped you. As they say, remember people when going up...
There are lots of reasons why a person would “want” to be an entrepreneur, but not all of them are reasons good enough to jump into this whole new world. I see an entrepreneur as someone who has this instinct that the others don’t have, he/she has an eyesight that sees things differently, and sometimes is also called “crazy” whenever they present an idea everyone...
This is that one thing that I used a lot of time on and I am sure everyone who has a service or a product goes through the tough moments of pricing. What to price and what not to price. How will the customer feel if they see the rate on this certain product, and so on. It’s not an easy thing, and it shouldn’t be easy either. Shall one go 100% up in profit? It depends on the type of...
There are lots of things you can do to get your customers or clients to love buying your services or products. One way to make this “relationship” work is to give a service that’s way beyond their expectations. For example, show them that you respect them because they chose your business over someone else’s, and that you will do everything possible to keep giving them the...
The most popular approach to doing business is that you would talk to your bank and they would give you a fat cheque with an amount that will make you rich. But does that help? Well, you might make it, and you might fail. And in the case of failure, you need to remember that the bank is not your friend. They don’t care if you succeed or not. The only thing they want back is their money, and...
Maybe that was just too direct. Let me say it differently. In order to succeed you would most probably need to fail on the way. It’s absolutely close to impossible to start something and end up succeeding with flying colors. Unless you are superman. Every idea and business demands time and effort, and your passion is like the cherry on the cake. Your job is to do your best, and if you still...
Life sometimes puts us in situations where we feel as if everyone has more than us. That everyone is happier than us, and everyone is enjoying the bounties of life unlike us. That’s exactly the time when we need to take a step back and take a serious look at our thoughts. We need to take drastic measures as to how we can stop such thoughts from making a place in our mind. Life is a gift and...
How often do you sit and not do anything? How often do you just wander around on the internet trying to spend your time and end up using a few good hours from your day on useless surfing, without getting any smarter than before? Time and money! I feel that people who tend to put time and money in the same sentence don’t really realize the true value of it. Money is something that comes and...
I can easily break the ice with people I don’t know or meet for the first time. Either it’s the door to door sales part-time job I had in London or it’s because of my hobby since 1994 as a radio presenter, I guess talking/communication sometimes comes easy. What I have figured out by not seeing people I talk to , I have come to realize that that one can divert a whole...
Since most of us spend a lot of time at work, it’s probably good to get around this thing in the best way possible. Lot of people just wave this whole thing off by saying “It’s only work”, well no, it’s your life, so make the best of it. 1. Be kind There is no shortage of rude and obnoxious people in this world, so be a bit different. Be kind and nice to those around...
In the past few years i have been working as the Project and Product Manager of several major portals, or products in other words. I launched a major lookalike site which was later sold to a high profile ISP and then I built onto an online radio, CrazeFm, which within three years won the best and most popular radio award. The ups and downs have taught me as to how to take a product and work on it...
