Understanding life

1. Don’t talk negatively about people behind their backs. If you gossip, people won’t confide in you. Mind your own business



2. Try to work for someone who’ll challenge your powers.You’ll learn more in a year than 4 years of college



3. Successful bosses have good communication skills. They learn from people, including their employees



4. Work in such a way that makes your boss look good. It’s not flattery



5. On downsizing, the first to go are those with few friends. Bosses prefer competent people whom they respect



6. Dress for the job you want, not the one you have. Let your dress reflect professionalism



7. Workout to get in good physical shape. Unless exceptionally skilled, the unhealthy are at a comparative disadvantage



8. Personal integrity is crucial. Tell nothing but the truth. Bosses can forgive mistakes but if you lie, you’re gone



9. Be on time. Try to arrive few minutes early. It saves you from stress. You’ll be much relaxed & work better



10. Strive your best to keep a deadline. If you cannot meet it, then apologize & ask for an extension



11. Don’t take things personally. If some people are unhappy with you, it’s their problem. But always strive to give your best



12. If you must correct someone, don’t get personal about it. Do it never in front of others



13. Spend some time alone everyday. What’s the mission of my life? What do I want to be? And how to go about it



14. As you move along Plan A of your career, maintain a Plan B as well — an alternative course to rely



15. Always remember that the secret of success is passion. Always think big. Spread love & joy. You’ll have blissful years ahead.

Every boss wants employees who do their jobs well. But even among highly competent employees, there are distinctions. Here are 10 tips for making sure you're on the boss' A-list:


1. Communicate, communicate, communicate. 

Especially at the beginning of your relationship. that is, when either you or the boss is new to the job -- err on the side of giving your boss too much information and asking too many questions.

"There's no such thing as a dumb question," says Marianne Adoradio, a Silicon Valley recruiter and career counselor. "Look at it as information gathering."

Don't keep up the constant stream of communication unless your boss likes it, though. It's best to ask directly whether you're giving the boss enough information or too much.

2. Acknowledge what the boss says. 

Bosses appreciate "responsive listening," says John Farner, principal of Russell Employee Management Consulting. When your boss asks you to do something or suggests ways for you to improve your work, let her know you heard.

3. Collaborate. 

When your boss has a new idea, respond to it in a constructive way instead of throwing up roadblocks.

"Be willing to brainstorm ways to get something done," says Michael Beasley, principal of Career-Crossings and a leadership and career development coach.

4. Build relationships. 

You'll make your boss look good if you establish a good rapport with your department's customers, whether they're inside the company or outside. Bring back what you learn -- about ways to offer better customer service, for example -- to your boss. This is also helpful for your own career development.

"Everybody wins in the long run," Adoradio says.

5. Understand how you fit in. 

Is your boss detail-oriented, or someone who keeps his head in the clouds?

"The boss's personality is just incredibly important," says Norm Meshriy, a career counselor and principal of Career Insights.

Equally important is understanding what your boss wants in an employee. It may be, for example, that a boss who is detail-oriented will expect his employees to be as well. But a boss who has no time for details may actually appreciate an employee who does.

We all have those days when all we want is to crawl back in bed for a few more hours. Unfortunately, few of us have that luxury. The following hints may help you stay energized, or at least get you going until you can make the time for rest。

　
　　1. Engage in a quick conversation with a high-energy colleague. Their positive energy may refresh you. (Just be careful not to drag them down!)

　　
　　2. Snack more! Having a healthy snack on hand, like a granola bar or fruit can help your blood sugar levels and may provide a healthy boost of energy. (Overeating will do the opposite and drag you down!) Moderation is key!

　　
3. Exercise. If you know that your schedule does not allow for a visit to the gym today, find a way to move around during your day. Instead of sending an email to your coworker, walk to her desk. It may be a good idea to take the stairs today, even though you're tired. But try to visit the gym tomorrow. People who exercise get more restful sleep and often feel more energized than those who don't。

　　
　　4. Drink water. "Hydration is critical," says Steven Masley, medical director of the Pritikin Longevity Center in Aventura, Florida. "If you don't hydrate, you're going to feel tired." The majority of your body is made of water; even a slight deficiency can rob you of your “oomph”！

　　
　　5. Plan a vacation or a staycation. Whether you leave town for a day or a week, having something fun to look forward to will excite you and stimulate energy. Plus, if you're reading this, you could probably use a break from your day-to-day routine。
