How can I improve my Life

         Every human being there has a different lifestyle. Every one tries to improve their life Style. But every one has not the proper opportunity to change it. To improve yourself you have to maintain some procedure.

         But before that If you want to improve your life, first you have to improve your health. Because if your health is ok, then every thing is ok. So I give you some suggestion to maintain good healthy health: – – You have to do exercise at least 10 minutes for your whole body. – Keep skin care for better looks. – Keep food in time. – For relaxation you have to play computer game etc. In the case of life, first you have to improve you personal skill, because it is the basic thing to prove yourself in any atmosphere. Yes, you have to improve your communication skill. Without communication skill you can not express yourself to another. Memorisation is another factor, because without memorisation you can’t do any think in time. You have much confident to yourself. But remind that, this confident should not convert into over confident. In our daily life time is another factor. So always works in schedule time. But we know that “No one is perfect”.

         So always think positive, do positive. Always keep in mind that “I wise I looked better so I could live my life better”.

Ten Ways to Improve Your Communication Skills

We all have people with whom we have to work to get things done.  Our ability to communicate with clients, customers, subordinates, peers, and superiors can enhance our effectiveness or sabotage us.  Many times, our verbal skills make the difference.  Here are 10 ways to increase your verbal efficacy at work:

  1. Develop your voice – A high whiney voice is not perceived to be one of authority.  In fact, a high soft voice can make you sound like prey to an aggressive co-worker who is out to make his/her career at the expense of anyone else.   Begin doing exercises to lower the pitch of your voice.  Here is one to start:  Sing but do it an octave lower on all your favorite songs.  Practice this and, after a period of time, your voice will begin to lower.
  2. Slow down – People will perceive you as nervous and unsure of yourself if you talk fast.  However, be careful not to slow down to the point where people begin to finish your sentences just to help you finish.
  3. Animate your voice – Avoid a monotone.  Use dynamics.  Your pitch should raise and lower.  Your volume should be soft and loud.  Listen to your local TV news anchor; take notes.
  4. Enunciate your words – Speak clearly.  Don t mumble.  If people are always saying, huh, to you, you are mumbling.
  5. Use appropriate volume – Use a volume that is appropriate for the setting.  Speak more softly when you are alone and close.  Speak louder when you are speaking to larger groups or across larger spaces.
  6. Pronounce your words correctly – People will judge your competency through your vocabulary.  If you aren t sure how to say a word, don t use it.
  7. Use the right words – If you re not sure of the meaning of a word, don t use it.  Start a program of learning a new word a day.  Use it sometime in your conversations during the day.
  8. Make eye contact – I know a person who is very competent in her job.  However, when she speaks to individuals or groups, she does so with her eyes shut.  When she opens them periodically, she stares off in a direction away from the listener.  She is perceived as incompetent by those with whom she consults.  One technique to help with this is to consciously look into one of the listener s eyes and then move to the other.  Going back and forth between the two (and I hope they only have two) makes your eyes appear to sparkle.  Another trick is to imagine a letter T on the listener s face with the cross bar being an imaginary line across the eye brows and the vertical line coming down the center of the nose.  Keep your eyes scanning that T zone.
  9. Use gestures – Make your whole body talk.  Use smaller gestures for individuals and small groups.  The gestures should get larger as the group that one is addressing increases in size.
  10. Don t send mixed messages – Make your words, gestures, facial expressions, tone, and message match.  Disciplining an employee while smiling sends a mixed message and, therefore, is ineffective.  If you have to deliver a negative message, make your words, facial expressions, and tone match the message.

Improving your communication skills will improve your productivity.

Find your greatness

Find Your Greatness

Lesson 1:

This first lesson is designed to get you to start
thinking about your greatness. This is the first step
to finding and unleashing the greatness that’s on the
inside of you so make sure to read the lesson and
complete the action step at the end.

I want to share with you something that can help you
find YOUR greatness…

Have you ever felt like there is something HUGE on the
inside of you but you’ve never been able to bring it
out?

Maybe you are at the place in life where you feel like
you have missed all the good opportunities, you should
be further than you are, or that you should have
achieved more. Maybe you’re frustrated because the
hopes and dreams you once had in life seem to always
slip through your fingers and out of your grasp.

Maybe you know that you were created
for much, much more in life but you can’t seem to
quite figure out what it is, where it is, or even how
to get there!

I have experienced that same confusion. I got to the
place where I was frustrated with living an average
life and I wanted to move toward being all that I
could be. That is why I want to share this
information with you.

I believe you have a ’seed of
greatness’ on the inside of you.

Think about your ’seed of greatness’ like an apple
seed. It may seem very small at first, but that tiny
seed has the potential to produce 50 apples on each
tree. Each of those apples has at lease 5 tiny seeds
that all have the potential to produce another 5 trees
with 50 apples on each tree.

So from that first tiny seed you have the first tree
with 50 apples, those apples then produce 250 more
trees that produce more apples, and more trees and so
on and so on. That is how greatness works in your
life.

I want to help you find that seed of greatness and how
to get it to flourish in life.

If you say, “Jason, I don’t even know what I’m
supposed to do with my life”, then I want to help you
find what it is that you were born to do.

Now,the next time you are wondering
how to find or fulfill your greatness, think about
that apple seed. Think about the fact that even though
that apple seed may seem so little, it actually has an
infinite amount of potential.

Action Step:

Get a pen and a piece of paper. Write down the top
three things that you would love to do with your life.
Don’t be afraid to dream BIG. What are you passionate
about? What do you enjoy doing? What would make you
excited about getting up in the morning?

Keep that piece of paper because, in the next lesson,
I will begin to show you how to live life to your
fullest potential.

To Your Greatness,
Vinayagam
