The Etiquettes

It is not good to be judgmental or over critical of others. But still I am going to write some words of wisdom for the one who seeks them.

1) I have observed it a plenty that people strangely use chatting linguistics when communicating at a professional level! Well well well, for me the candidate who talks to me in such special words might not lose his/her credibility what so ever, but not every body is like me. It is sensible to use original words no matter what, do run a dictionary check on your words as well to see if every thing is good and pleasant. On a side note, I never use the short version of languages even during my personal chats.

2) Talking more about communicating at a professional level, the emails you send develop a sketch of how you are. It kind of becomes a major evaluation criterion of your personality. It never costs a penny to be courteous, does it? Always use the words... Please, Kindly and Thank you in your emails. These simple courteous words echo in eternity, trust me!

3) Many times it happens so that when you send an email, message or sms to someone, that person does not move a muscle to reply to your concern. That for me is utterly disappointing characteristic anyone could ever have! It amazes me to no extent that why would one not reply to my messages or even calls for that matter. You cannot be as busy as Bill Gates, can you be? Even Bill Gates tends to your mails and messages, then who am I or you to not reply to anyone's messages? May be it is the trademark of successful people to reply to any queries no matter what!

4) There is fine line between cockiness and confidence. My experience during taking interviews says that I would prefer a humble candidate any day over a one who has some attitude problem. When you are giving interviews, never forget that you are being evaluated in every way and not just on the basis of your answers.

So lets come to the conclusion...

Never underestimate the power of a written or spoken word!
Always be clear, concise and courteous.
Always be concerned.
Be positive with your foot firmly planted on earth.

Live On

If you knew you are going to die soon and you had only one call to make, who would it be to?

I hope some one does come up in your mind by reading the above sentence. Read on...

I have lost people very close to me. Which really made me think, why do good people die so early? Then I came to know why it is so famously said:

"Heroes die young!"

All those people which are no more with me were, are and always will be my heroes. They always will be part of my life in one way or the other. They have left lasting impressions of their wonderful personality on me.

In the end all we have are the fond memories of our loved ones.

I always say that life is nothing but the very moment we are living in. We must no matter what make the best of these collection of moments.

I will always give preference to my parent's hug over a million dollar cheque.

Your parents, children, siblings and other relatives never remember you for the money you made but for the quality time you spent with them. They never remember you for the luxuries you gave to them but for the hearty love you bestowed upon them.

One cannot stop the process of dying but one can cherish the few years one has in his life by living every day as his last day.

I vividly remember once my teacher quoted someone's quotation, which went like this:

"You have the opportunity to live life in three ways...

1) The life you are living right now
2) The life you will live after death
3) The life you live through the memories of the people after you die!

You have lived fully only if you are able to live in the memories of people after you have long gone."

That is just an epic way to tell how should one spend his time in this world and seconds what I have said earlier.

If you knew you are going to die and you had only one call to make, who would it be to?

What are you waiting for? :)
