How to Network: Must read for shy people

~ Thread ~

1. Start with Whom You Know

Start slow by networking with relatives and friends.

Once you gain some courage, you can expand to strangers too.

2. Put on a Happy Face

SMILE

This is such a basic rule yet people just don't think about it.

3. Listen to be Heard

Everyone wants to talk about themselves.

If you are shy, be a good listener.

If you let them speak, they will remember it as a great conversation

4. Say their Name

People like to hear their own names.

Calling them by their name would make them more comfortable.

5. Be Yourself

Don't pretend to be an extrovert for networking.

People will respect you for being you, not someone else.

6. Always be Networking

Networking doesn't just happen at the work,

Anything that gets you out of house is networking.

Networking would be easy if you would consider it as fun instead of duty.

7. Be Generous

You don't always need to give back something to network.

Simply make them feel good or successful about themselves,

When you don't have anything else to give back.

Thanks for reading.

Money Myths: Busting the lies you believe

~ Thread ~

1. Wealth Building is mostly luck.

"I was born poor, So I can't die rich,

Millionaires just inherit their wealth"

Remember, 80% millionaires are first-generation millionaires.

2. Banks are your saviors

Banks are not there to protect your money,

Rather they lend your money to make more money.

Bank is a business model for them, not a service for you.

3. Investing in markets is too risky

$SPX price raised by 4,000% since 1980.

In long run, Stock market is money-making machine.

Don't be afraid to invest, afraid to money eaten up by inflation.

4. Looking rich will make you rich

What's the use of a Lambo purchased on debt to look rich?

Looking rich will make you poor from inside.

Only spend what you can afford comfortably.

Your family and friends will.

Lessons I learned from "Rich Dad, Poor Dad"

~ Thread ~

1. Put your money to work

You cannot get rich with your money in savings account,

Invest it in appreciating assets.

2. Amount of money retained matters

It is not the amount of money you make,

It's the amount of money you keep that matters.

3. Acquire assets

Rich people acquire assets while poor accumulates liabilities,

Your choices will determine your fate.

4. You are not born to work for others for lifetime

Most people consider this slavery as their life,

Completely forgetting the life possible beyond that.

If there is one thing I have learned it is that people love bullshit. They buy bullshit stories from professional bullshit artists, accept bullshit philosophies, purchase bullshit how-to-books, vote for bullshitting politicians.

At first, I resisted believing this because it is illogical and dumb and frankly, doesn't reflect well on the human race of which I am a member (and thus have long been hopeful that it is more of a distinction than it actually turns out to be.)

But if you actually are interested in facts you begin to notice how little most people care for them. Sometimes it is because they are heard to learn and bullshit is so much more widely and easily available. Sometimes it is because facts make them uncomfortable about themselves.

Sometimes it is because just one tiny fact will upset a whole worldview that has grown as comfortable as an overstuffed chair. (Settling into such worldviews is a lot like settling into chairs like that because the longer you're there and the deeper you sink...

...the harder it is to hoist yourself up and out of your fat-assed intellectual laziness.) But I actually think the reason people have such an appetite for bullshit goes deeper, goes to an aspect of ourselves we just can't accept.

Manipulation Sign:

If you are compromising too much, there is a chance that you are getting manipulated.

Why are you the one that's always compromising?

How come the other person always gets their way?

Be more curious.

If something seems off, stick up for yourself.

'Wait, you sure I am being manipulated?'

I have no clue, that is only something that you can decide for yourself.

'Dang is there anything I need to look out for?'

Plenty..

But let me give you a few things to look out for.

👇

I see manipulation as skillfully controlling someone's behavior for egotistical or unethical purposes.

'How come people don't leave when it's happening to them?'

Because most people have 0 clue that they are being manipulated.

1. Guilt Trip

You ever made a mistake around someone, only for them to hold it over your head?

The will always bring up the mistake when you 2 are not seeing eye to eye.

These people will use that mistake as leverage to get what they want from you in the future.

Look out.

2. The Rationalizer

This person will commit the worst acts & find a way to rationalize it.

Example: cheaters when they get caught.

They have every excuse in the book for why they did it.

Heck, they are so good at rationalizing, they will make it seem like your fault.

How Reading Helped My Career

In 2013, a joint venture Israeli/South African company was looking to make a foray into Nigeria. They wanted to set up an outlet in Lagos after conducting their feasibility studies and they needed a Nigerian financial institution to partner with.

Somehow, i was given their contacts and we agreed to meet with our teams from both sides at Victoria Island.

I got my team together- about 8 of them- people in e-business, IT and other units that I know will have one thing or the other to do with this company.

I wanted to conclude in just one meeting. As the South African MD and his Israeli partner walked into my office where we were all seated and I stood up to exchange pleasantries with both of them, his eye went to the book on my table. 'Oh, you're reading Tipping Point?', he asked.

I was reading Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell that week and I had the book on my desk in the office. I usually have the books I'm reading either in my car or on my desk. I replied in the affirmative.

He asked for other books of Malcolm Gladwell that I've read and I mentioned Outliers-The Story of Success and What The Dog Saw. He asked for my best among the books and I mentioned Outliers. His best was Tipping Point.

10 easy steps to improve communication skills

《Thread》

1) Learn The Basic Of Non-verbal Communications

It's not about what you say, it's how you say it.

For a clear and confident conversation, focus on your posture.

Avoid folding your arms or making your self smaller than you are.

Use your eye contact to break the gap.

2) Respect Your Audience

As a speaker, you should respect your audience.

They are here for you to listen. They want to listen to your ideas, so you must respect them.

Remember the quote “Give respect, Take respect“.

If you fail to give respect, they will not listen to you.

3) Ask for honest feedback

Whenever u have a conversation with anyone ask them about your mistakes, progress you have done in conversation.

This will help you in achieving your goals and by looking after your mistakes, you will learn them and improve it.

4) Maintain Eye Contact

Effective comm. is where the speaker makes eye contact with his audience.

The receiver starts trusting to him and shows interest in his words.

Maintaining eye contact builds credibility, and also it shows you care about your listeners.

The name Amarkot is known to all in our subcontinent as the birthplace of Emperor Akbar. When Humayun was fleeing from Sher Shah, Rana Prasad of Amarkot sheltered him and this is where Emperor Akbar was born.

The Statue of Equality is a monument in India dedicated to the 11th-century Vaishnavaite Sage Bhagavad Ramanuja, commemorating 1000 years since his birth. It was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji in 2019.

In 2014, Sri Chinna Jeeyar came up with the idea to commemorate the 1000th anniversary of Sri Ramanuja's teachings by building the Statue of Equality. The statue is constructed on an estimated 34 acres in Hyderabad, India.

It consists of a 216 foot tall statue of Ramanuja and is surrounded by 108 Divyadesams (model temples) and includes an educational gallery. The project budget is 1000 crore rupees.The foundation stone for the Statue of Equality was laid by Chinna Jeeyar.

The statue was built by Aerosun Corporation in China before being shipped to India. It is made of panchaloha, a combination of gold, silver, copper, brass and titanium. The statue relies on donations to fund its construction.

The temple is located on the 27,870 square metre second floor with a 120 kg statue of Ramanuja, representing the years he lived, meant for daily worship. The 1,365 square metre third floor including a Vedic digital library and research center.

#Thread Two divine forms of Khatu Shyam ji...

On the day of Amavasya, devotees get the darshan of Shyam Baba in Shyam varan (black color). In ordinary days, the form of Baba is saffron. The reason for this is a custom. The real head of Shyam Baba which had appeared from Shyam Kund is of Shyam varan.

Every day Shyam Baba's grand Shringar is done by Pujaris. The main part of Shyam Baba's shringar is Tilak. This Shringar is done by the members of Nij Mandir sevaks. The sevaks of the Nij Mandir do sandalwood tilak to Baba everyday in the auspicious time.

This Divine Tilak is applied from the forehead to the nose. When Baba is given a bath by sevaks, this tilak comes off. Then in the auspicious time, the sevaks again apply tilak to Baba.

There is no auspicious time on the Amavasya. Because of this, tilak is not done on that day. That's why devotees have darshan of Shyam Baba on the Amavasya only in the actual real form (Shyam Swaroop). Baba's tilak is done on Amavasya only on the day of Deepawali.
