Avoiding negative people is much more crucial than seeking positive company


Get rid of them from your hangout list as soon as possible, from your social network list, take a different route, come early or leave little late from office even if this is what it takes to avoid people with negative vibes. Don’t get into argument with such people, simply change the topic or leave the discussion spot. You don’t want to argue with a person, whom you don’t even want to face, do you. Argument is not going to change that person or his or her behavior, nor your point of view about him or her. It will only reinforce your previous not so good experience. If you can’t avoid them due to situation just mind your own business. Find out innovative ways to avoid them like you find out innovative ways and means to get in touch with positive influences in your life.

They won’t tell you they already know because they really didn’t know until you pointed out!!


It’s Showtime!! When it’s time to showcase your expertise on some subject, you have to be little cautious considering you might not be the only one in the room who has expertise on said subject. You will be surprised to know how much that person sitting in front of you knows about the subject which you are talking about. At least it appears so. At least they can pretend to. Don’t be surprised. Here is the catch. There is a chance that the person sitting in front of you might be very knowledgeable, there is an equal chance that this person is faking it, giving an air or knowledgeable person, authority on the subject and even you can do that. You only have to pretend affirmatively and authoritatively that this idea which someone is proposing is not new at all, pretending that it’s your one brainchild or at least you came across this idea or fact or information many times before. This will show your authority, at the same time that person with feel little awkward and will start doubting his own authority on the subject. This is a bad thing to do so don’t do that. But always keep in mind that majority of people around you with apparent knowledgeable authority is faking it, you got to see content of that person beneath his or her confidence. Confidence without real knowledge or content is not going to lead anyone anywhere. And also don’t feel disheartened if someone claims your knowledge or idea as their own, you know it’s yours, and they know it’s a trick that they are playing on you as always just because they are in a position to do that to you.

Secret of business is a myth!!


How many patents they claim in business innovation domain every year if there is any such thing as “secret formula of business success”. Now compare it with scientific and technical patent numbers. Business is a dynamic environment which mutates and transforms its way of functioning and operation every season, every year and every decade. It might not be a wise idea to conclude and arrive at a single formula for best business result, because landscape also tends to change as per region and catchment of operation.  And hence they device tailored business solutions for desired need and outcome. There is no business school which can transform a layman into a businessman; they simply empower and enable those who are already business minded. They teach tricks of the trades based on the centuries of collective business experience of the world leaving them with an observant curiosity and tenacity to learn as they grow. In this open knowledge economy business knowledge is not a constraint. If you have guts, if you have vigor and if you really want and feel to get into business, you can do that anyway and if you don’t feel that surge of thrill when you are up to business go find a day job. If you really want to be a successful entrepreneur from deep within, you will find whole world is there to make your dream come true, you will find every other successful person is willing to share piece of their mind, though there is no business success secrets as such, it’s the experience of your own and others which will empower you. You will start learning from small things and events around you, you will see business opportunity in little things and events with which you encounter every day, but only if you really want to be an entrepreneur. It’s about perspective not the formula.

Two ultimate sources of free mentor tips which you can get objectively

It was always there, it’s just that you underestimated it.

Discussion Forums: you can get a continuous stream of advice from online discussion platforms when it comes to seeking advice objectively or anonymously, though you always have an option to participate in the discussion of seek direct advice. Though you have to be cautious in filtering the sensible advice out of tons of junk advice, but remember to reach the diamond you will have to filter tons of coal.   

Published Interviews: You can get tons of crisp, sensible and encouraging tips from interviews of successful people no matter which stream of life or business they belong, you should prefer online documented text versions rather than interview videos because it’s absolutely fast to search and extract the advice and tips you are looking for from a text file rather than a video format. For instance open a online published interview of any successful CEO, Search for the Key word “Success” in the documents through auto search option, highlighting word “success” located everywhere in the document, and read the relevant paragraph. Going through an hour of interview video or two minute search in a text document to get a single advice, you choose yourself! No matter what published interviews are one of the best ways to learn from others success and experience, objectively.

Never underestimate something which you can’t estimate now!!


You feel bad when underestimated, don’t you and that’s why you make an extra effort everywhere you go to make your presence felt, to prove your worth. You are not alone, everyone feels the same, no matter at which pedestal of success they are standing.

A child who comes to your shop and you didn’t entertain him just because he has no serious money at present, he will never come back to you again even when he will have all the money to buy your whole shop. A person who was not entertained well at a brand outlet because that expensive car or clothing is beyond his reach at present, he will never in his life will buy your car of cloth line even if he has to pay extra to go to your rival company. If you fail to estimate potential of a small time writer, actor, artist or any creative soul now, you might have lost a treasure box, something which didn’t clicked you might appeal to someone else.

Pay close attention to your future business prospects now or you will never get it. Don’t underestimate anything at its face value.
