Six Employee Expectations which are Seldom Fulfilled

Last Sunday I received a call from my very close friend, who happened to be my Boss at one point. She told me that she is leaving the company where she has almost given her 10 long years. The reason she attributed are – She is not any more enjoying the work, the Monday morning excitement to go to office has lulled. Now as a Writer my curiosity to delve deep pushed me to carry on the conversation with her and at the end I could make out the reasons of her Leaving, and the Organization’s failure in retaining the Talent. The reasons which I could make out are as follows

1. Appreciation of their Work:

This has really become the biggest reason. Employees want appreciation for their contribution, but many nosy bosses feel that it’s part of their Role and Responsibilities. This usually gives wrong signals to Employee and they start feeling guilty of putting the hard work in their job.

2. Support at Right Time:

Personal life and relationships are really very important and more important than deadlines of the project. Daily grind of unwarranted deadlines really becomes annoying and boss really appears to be culprit for not Supporting the employees to carry Other important things in life. Bosses should be ready with the solution by Proper resource planning, which will show that they genuinely care about them.

Expose the Truth – Do we Need Degree

After Reading Joshua’s Post, I could not resist myself writing this post. This is the subject which really excites me and has been widely discussed.

You need to look at both the sides. I am in favor of Degree so will start from there:

I will start with the quote which goes like this

The self-taught man seldom knows anything accurately, and he does not know a tenth as much as he could have known if he had worked under teachers; and, besides, he brags, and is the means of fooling other thoughtless people into going and doing as he himself had done….”

I feel and critics surely won’t agree, that Degree helps in getting more organized, insightful, authentic and accurate knowledge which otherwise would not have been possible, on the condition that teacher of degree college or your GURU are really the masters of their trade.

During five years of my college I learned the General principles, Best practices and theories related to the Computer engineering which otherwise would not have been possible, without Degree.

I could surely say the Degree laid the foundation theories of Computer Engineering in me. It did not taught me Programming skills on which I am making my LIVING today but surely it taught me fundamentals of computers and Logic building skills which will remain for years to come. I owe my knowledge to the degree I earned through college.

College Degree really helps in your personal growth as well in networking, building relationships, living up to Deadlines, polish skills and moulding talent and so many other things which otherwise would not have been possible.

College degree gives us social recognition, which is really important in our society.

It is not only the Computer Engineers. In fact Doctors, Lawyers and there are many other professions which require degree otherwise they won’t be able to practice or do the job related to that.

There are many cases in Organizations where people have been denied promotion for not having degree from premier institute.

Degree has become the Eligibility criteria for getting the job, without that you won’t even be shortlisted.

There was a famous saying during my college days:

“No knowledge without college”, so I am all for degree and that too from premier institute. Let’s now look at the other side

You will surely agree that Degree, if not subsidized by Government puts a great strain on our pockets. Many of us take a huge toxic loan for attaining the degree, which in most cases will follow till grave.

Degree takes a toll on several years of our earnings, most of the degree courses are 3-5 yrs which is a very long period, and with this the number of earning years reduces.

Degree does not teach us innovation, the stress while attaining degree is more on theory and principles. Many of us leave college with more questions than answers.

Degrees are not required for certain professions, if you want to make your career in Web development or allied areas; Degree surely is a pure waste of time.

8 Must Read Tips to Increase Readership

We all could google and find Traffic and SEO tips, but either many tips have not been regularly updated or they have surely become obsolete in present day context, I want to share some tips which are really relevant after Penguin and Panda updates.

1. Latest Browser and Device compatible themes:

Choosing theme is the First Step before launching your blog or website. As most of the us are using WordPress or other CMS and have plethora of themes to choose from, you need to make sure that themes are optimized for all the browsers and gadgets which every one of us are carrying today as well as for Performance, better the performance of the theme, better will be that for user, else he is bound to press the close button and move on. Normal download time is between 2-5 seconds.

The websites which are not on Wordpress or on any other CMS should be tested for all the browsers and for most of the gadgets. You need to make sure that HTML and CSS is fully compliant to the browsers and gadgets. Use of HTML5 is recommended but compatibility issues with old browsers exist, so you need to be cautious on that front.

Readers can easily access the blog or website and use it for their purpose on any gadget and Search engine will index that for sure, which can increase your traffic.

2. Magnetic Title and Meta Description

Ensure Title is well crafted and compelling before publishing the content. It should be able to pull the reader to your blog. Title of your Post and Meta Description are the key for organic as well as inorganic traffic. Choose Keyword very carefully and use Google trends to find the relevant keywords.

3. Increase PageRank of your internal pages As per pagerank algorithm, Your page rank is divided equally among the links on a page. More the number of links, less will be the rank of those internally linked pages. Suppose Your PageRank is 4 and there are 4 links on that page. The rank of each internal link will be 1, so be careful in using links on pages, optimize the pages and it will result in getting good rank and traffic.

4. Epic Content Content is the king and there in no doubt in that, but it has to be used in context. Stand alone Epic content is nothing but a waste of your resources - it should be served with Value Addition in your network. Try to first find your niche and then make effort to serve that.

5 Things I Wont Do To My Subordinates

For many of us who were in job at one time or other in their career, surely must have dealt with not so good bosses and wished that we won’t do the same to our subordinates. So these are my observations about my bosses at some of the renowned companies and felt like sharing these with you.

1. I won’t Bully my subordinates whenever they try to raise their concern

One of my boss was a real bully who use to intimidate anyone who comes in his way, nobody dare to raise his voice and most of the team members were just overpowered by his statements. At that time I use to think that I will treat my subordinates as close aides or as friends and will give them full helping hand wherever they deserve.

2. I won’t lie about the Company status and project status by presenting them either with rosy picture or the downtrodden status.

Bosses have been given the eternal rights (at least they think so) of not giving the true picture of the project and Company, which I felt with almost all my bosses, few exceptions are always there. I want to be as transparent as possible with my subordinates about the Company’s objectives, goals and financial status as well as the project status.

3. I won’t be biased during the Appraisals

This many of us have felt during appraisals that we have been subjugated, wherein our colleague has got a larger hike which he or she does not deserve. I want to keep this process very transparent and very much open to suggestions. At least Six months prior to the appraisal the objectives and expectations will be clearly marked to everyone so that they have time to prove themselves.

4. I won’t be hiding the Best performer in front of the Higher Management

I have felt that many bosses who are not highly skilled or are highly insecure about their jobs hide the talent from the key decision makers in the higher Management, they feel that, that can end their job. I will try to promote the talent wherever it has to be.

5. I won’t suppress their Entrepreneurship spirit

At times I want more interested in creating a software product, but boss won’t give the time for the same and infact won’t listen to that as well. The Project proposal was overlooked. He was more interested in completing the mundane jobs. I will try to promote their Entrepreneurship spirit, I will try to provide them more opportunities for innovation based on their skillset.

Now you tell me

What are the things you dont want to do to your subordinates? kindly share those

Expectation is the Mother of all Miseries

How many of us are let down in one way or other, either daily, weekly or monthly. In my case this happens many time and I get disappointed whenever it happens but I have started living with it.

It was not the same a year back, when I left the job and started FreeLancing.

At the time of Leaving the job, I was the Project Manager in a reputed Software company and was managing multiple projects. When I started Freelancing, I expected that I will be getting business very quickly using the different websites which provide Freelancing jobs, relying too much on my experience. When it did not happen I was really disappointed and started venting anger on my husband, who use to cool my nerves by saying that business takes time to settle and just don’t give up.

Since I was expecting too much, that made me really down and out, always angry and thinking of the job. Result was my faith was crippled and gradually my confidence was blown into pieces.

But by that time I had reading Leo and Adrienne, and use to console myself by saying that they have taken more than a year to build on to their reputation. That feeling started sinking in me by then, and I use to question myself whether I am expecting too much. The fact was, I was expecting too much and that too quickly.

That me realize that I should give up unrealistic expectation, the things will happen at their own pace but we should remain consistent in our process, should not think of giving up.

Unexpected happened in February when I got my first software project from a well renowed website and then unexpectedly I completed 32 Projects in 6 months.

After that I remained on my path of not expecting too much. Few days back my daughter’s grades were not as per expectation but that time again I Was disappointed, but did not take that to my heart and brain, and advised her to keep trying and get better.

Now I don’t expect too much from customer services of the banks as well. I know the Bank tag line can be anything, but there are humans who are working there and they can at times go wrong. It’s better to have realistic expectation from them.

Now I Don’t expect that my children will really be helpful when I will get old, but that does not stop me in giving them the moral values. I don’t expect that I will lose 5 Kg of weight in 1 month, but that does not stop me in giving up morning walk. I never expected that I will be blogging till few months back but now I am addicted to it.

I don’t expect anything but I remain on my path of being ambitious. I was a born introvert and never expected that I will be networked with all you great bloggers around, but I have been able to do that.

Four Guru Bloggers who can change your life

In my earlier Post (Do We Really Need GURUS To Help Us In Blogging), I mentioned about the importance of Guru’s in our everyday life. Their importance in fact cannot be undermined in blogging as well. I was a novice and I am still learning, the nuances of blogging. These Guru’s have helped me one way or other and their small help has played a vital role in placing me in blogosphere. Timing of their advice has been very critical for me and their writing has been a source of inspiration. Their teachings have been very methodical and they are easily approachable.

Famous Quote dedicated to all the Guru bloggers who are giving back to community:

“Somebody has to train these kids. Somebody has to teach them, and if not me, who? If not now, when? We must do it. It's got to be done.”

I would like to express my eternal gratitude to them by mentioning their names in this post and not the blog only they are representing, even though it is not a Thanks giving day. I guarantee that they can be helpful to all of you who are reading this post as much as they have helpful to me.

1. Adrienne Smith: She represents (http://adriennesmith.net). She has helped me by giving the useful tips and techniques about blogging. I am impressed by her giving importance to detailing on every aspect of my blog. One of my social sharing plugin was not functional once, she immediately pointed towards that. I am already very impressed by the vast knowledge she have almost on all topics related to internet blogging, marketing as well as on Wordpress plugins.She can go all out to help you, mail her and she will promptly respond. Everything about her is genuine, what else should we expect from a Guru.

2. Pat Flynn: He is representing (http://www.smartpassiveincome.com). Whenever I think of doing Podcasting, the only name that comes to my mind is Pat Flynn. He is the Guru of his trade. I have followed him for the last one year and could see how he has mastered his craft of sharing knowledge using podcasting. His name is now synonymous to Podcasting. He is easily approachable and can really help anyone who is interested in his craft.

3. Corbett barr: He represents (http://thinktraffic.net). Most of us at one point or other must surely would have thought of traffic after launching or before launching of website or blog. Corbett barr is the name synonymous to traffic. He helps in building the online business from the scratch through his coaching. He is Guru in creating the business online. I met Corbett on Pat Flynn’s blog. He is easily approachable and can help anyone through his online coaching.

4. Leo Babauta: He represents(http://zenhabits.net). He is top 25 blogger as per Times Magazine. I have have been followingLeo for the last one year and learnt a lot from his blog. Through his writing he touches every aspect of life and how it can be improved, in a simple lucid way. I have been in touch with him through his posts only but he has been influential in starting my blog at a time when most people are shutting down their blogs.

This post would not be complete without mentioning the name of two more bloggers who has helped me in one way or other:

1. Harleena Singh: She represents (http://aha-now.com). I have been following her for very long. Her writings have been thoroughly inspirational. She covers family and relationship, being a family woman, these are the topics which I really cherish.

2. Michael Belk: He represents (http://www.ethicalbehaviorboy.com). I met him two days back only through Adrienne’s blog, and was really impressed with the ethical behavior topics he is covering through his blog.

There is a famous saying which goes like this:

“When a person really desires something, all the Universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream”

I am looking to increase this list to Top 500, so will need your input for the same, but before that comment on my choice: Do you think my selection is biased or do you really like that..Waiting for your comments for the same.

Do we really need GURUS to help us in blogging

I believe that Gurus are imperative for our growth in every sphere of our life, be it personal, spiritual or blogging. This feeling has been derived from the fact that distractions and confusions are everywhere, it is only with GURU’s help that we can achieve the unachievable.

Imagine that we are blogging and we don’t have any information from reliable source or any authentic information available with us such as

What are the best practices we need to follow to be successful on blogging?

What are the SEO techniques we need to follow?

What are the things on our blog which needs to be corrected?

Whether the timing of the blog really matters? 5. How we can position our self in blogosphere?

The above questions will remain unanswered for very long time because it will be answered by our learning, as we grow and experience. We probably will be re-inventing the wheel.

As It has been rightly said:

“The self-taught man seldom knows anything accurately, and he does not know a tenth as much as he could have known if he had worked under teachers; and, besides, he brags, and is the means of fooling other thoughtless people into going and doing as he himself had done….”

I think that here comes the role of the Guru, he is the one who accelerates the process of learning, what could have taken years to learn and implement could be achieved in relatively lesser time. Guru can help in giving the necessary impetus which is necessary for us to move to next orbit of learning.

Guru can easily point out the mistakes which we are making and can help us to take valuable inputs from their experience but it is the student like few of us who need to constantly ask and evolve. We need to constantly practice the learning’s which we have built by teachings of Guru. Guru can slowly and steadily realize our full potential.

How to select a Guru

This is the hardest step, as there are many Gurus around but for me the one who have the bundle of knowledge on display, readily available and can teach without attitude and don’t expect anything from us. They have a great list of learned followers and are having been on blogosphere for the very long time and their integrity has never been on stake.

Beware of Fake Gurus

There are many Gurus on internet and around us, who are merely are here to earn their livelihood, they will entice us and make us to pay without even giving us anything, they don’t believe in theory of GIVING. Their sole purpose is to earn quick and easy money and disappear and then appear again in any other form and means, only to repeat the same. They are actually doing everything for themselves.

Shall we pay Guru for their services

I am firm believer of the fact that if the Guru is true and his or her display of knowledge is really a wealth to be proud of then we should pay for that knowledge, as Guru is passing the knowledge which he has earned a hard way after many learning and unlearning. He has packed that learning for us, so that we don’t get trapped again in the deluge of information. The compensation they are asking is nothing as compared to the learning we get from them.

Our great Epic Mahabharata points us to a Guru- knowledge seeker relationship where the knowledge seeker Eklavya has given the right thumb to his Guru, just to keep his Guru’s words. You can read the complete story here : Guru- follower Story

I have my set of Gurus who I follow very religiously. I will be giving their names in my next post and expect you to tell your Gurus as well and what does having Guru Mean to you.

Alexa Ranking, Is that really important

In Blogosphere, Alexa rank plays a very important role in determining the ranking of a blog. For great bloggers and the known personalities that rank has got no relevance. But for the novice and naïve bloggers like me Alexa ranking plays a very important role in knowing our progression on Monthly/Quarterly basis and also give a fair amount of idea, how the others are performing in our niche and outside that as well. It is a well known fact that higher the rank, higher is the credibility and authenticity of the website. There are websites which have great products to sell, they are also using this tool to determine their rank as well as their competitors’ and then devise the strategies based on the ranking.

How Alexa works?

Alexa uses a set of tools and applications to determine the flow of traffic to our websites and then rank them accordingly.The most important app is the toolbar which Alexa is using extensively and is very much dependent on. Alexa toolbar and extensions are there for Firefox,IE and Chrome. Everyone who is using this toolbar contribute to ALEXA ranking to their blog or website as well as to others.

So the ranking can be given a clear boost by using the Alexa toolbar. Alexa is also using the data from the app, which as a code we are placing on our webpages

Alexa also use the Inbound links to work on rank as more the relevant inbound links higher is the ranking.

I have seen the spike in the ranking immediately after starting using Alexa toolbar as well as placing the code on my webpages.

How many of us are using Alexa toolbar?

Alexa toolbar is not being extensively used by everyone around and also why will everyone use it when they don’t have benefit out of that. There are many who are infact not aware of this tool.

As per the industry estimates there are only 10% who are aware of this tool, so surely this 10% will contribute to our endeavor.

There are many people who believe that Alexa ranking can be maneuverd and therefore can be unreliable, but my firm believe is based on the logic, that Alexa is an Amazon group company and if we trust Amazon then we have to have faith in Alexa ranking as well.

It is imperative that we don’t dig deep and try to find out faults, but use the data more as a helping hand in devising our strategy.

Practice Frugality and maximize your lifetime earnings

We all are looking for opportunities to earn more and more money and thus be happy. Have we achieved that, the answer in most cases is NO. In my case it is absolutely nothing.

When I started my college I thought probably Rs 5000 ($100), is what I require, but in the final year that requirement increased to Rs 15000 ($300). So requirement kept on increasing because my desires for expensive possessions kept on increasing,mind you it is not the INFLATION which has got reflected in $300.But economic situation which really got worsened in 2008 taught us that we need to save more for rainy days. There is no surety of job or the business we are in. With population increasing at rapid pace and economy showing very less signs of recovery, we should prepare for the worst and Start Practicing Frugality.

Frugality is the habit, which if developed and exploited to maximum potential can make you happy, rich and will given you sense of satisfaction as well. I will share some tips with you, which I have started in my day to day life, and have been able to maximize earnings. if I have missed something, I will expect you to suggest so that we can together improve upon the list:

1. Avoid wearing branded Items: I have seen and felt that people are crazy about brands. Try to avoid them. If we cannot avoid them to the fullest, we can reduce them in our everyday life. Mind you this can save you hell lot of money.

2. Buy less gold and platinum: We women spend a lot in purchasing gold jewellery, we should try to limit that. It will give a tremendous boost to your saving. I now have started wearing artificial jewellery.

3. Use Prepaid phone: In postpaid connection most of the times our budgeted limit is crossed, but prepaid phone connection helps in keeping a tight control on our limit by not allowing us to cross the budgeted amount.

4. Use Public transport instead of car: Travelling by car has always been expensive so restrict yourself, use Metro or bus or tube to travel to your office or to your workplace. If there is no other mode of transport for workplace then use CNG kit in your car because that way you can save a lot.

5. Use online Newspaper: Most of us are using internet for everything, so it’s better to read newspaper online rather than paying separately for that.

6. Self Mopping & cleaning: Don’t use paid service for mopping and cleaning house, do it by yourself if you can. This way you will remain active and will save on your monthly expenses as well.

7. Avoid Malls for refreshing yourself: At times we believe that we can see latest trends in mall but we end up buying something as offers there are too tempting to resist. Avoid buying items which you already have or which you really don’t require.

8. Check before buying Policies: Agents at times will give you tempting offer for new policies, like pay half premium for the first year or 5th premium will be paid by company. Don’t fell for them, use your due diligence for the same.

9. Un-clutter your home: Remove items from your house which you don’t require now and also in future as well, you need to look at every nook and corner of the house, barter those things with the items which you really require or get money in exchange of those items.

10. Eat home cooked food : Food cooked at home is more hygienic, highly nutritious and proves to be less expensive so try to limit yourself to home cooked food.

11. Keep Eye on electricity and water bills: This is very important, if we can keep a check on to our these Monthly bills, we can save a lot.

12. Look for freebies and discounts: Make a list of the items which you require on daily basis and look for discounts and freebies on internet. You can find many sites which will help you in your endeavour.

13. Pay off your debt: If you can save from the above mentioned methods, use the saved money in paying off your debt.

14. Look for better bank rate of interest: Once you have made money by using the above, look for the bank which can offer you the best interest rate on your deposit.

If you really like this, don’t be Frugal in giving review on my blog.

Be the first one to appreciate others

How many times you have been the first one to appreciate others , just put your hand on your heart and ask yourself. You will surely get the answer.

Next question surely will be, why should I appreciate others and what will I get out of that?

Now imagine a situation of a person, who is putting all his efforts on something, maybe he is writing great code for others, and he is down and out as he is struck somewhere in the logic formation. You happen to pass by that person and seeing his effort, you just tell him “Man you have been working so hard, and I know, with your ability you will surely sail through this issue in which you are currently struck up”.

Believe me that can do wonders for the other person, inspire him and make him or her to move to next orbit. This has happened to me in my Last job wherein my Project Manager clearly told me the above while I was working on the Reporting tool to automate the Process of Reporting and was struck in one of the technical issue. After his statement I worked on the project the entire night without food and water and was able to solve the problem.

I always remember my Project Manager for his above appreciation, he has a SPECIAL place in my heart. Now I use the same tool of appreciating others and this has never ever failed.

I appreciate my team member who has really worked hard or performed exceptionally well, in front of entire team and in most of the cases I am the first one to appreciate.

When I appreciate the other person, the smile or the inner feeling of that person can be easily read on his face, [highlight]SEEING [/highlight]that is believing. I feel that one good job has been accomplished.

Appreciation should be from the bottom of the heart and it should be genuine, fake appreciations can be easily caught. Appreciating does not lessen any dollar from your pocket .

I have also seen the reasons why some people are not appreciating others, I worked with one of the boss in my first job who really was very bad in that and reasons I could make out was firstly, feeling of insecurity. He was very much insecured of his job, he felt that appreciating others will surely put his job in danger. Secondly he has a belief that the other person during appraisals will place this appreciation on his list and ask for better increment.

Gradually the result of the above was, people who were working with him started to move out of his project, he lost some great developers from his team. His project started to suffer and after that you can think what must have happened.

At times our Sucking schedule and the tasks really does not allow us to do that but I genuinely make a point to appreciate minimum one person daily and so I expect you to do the same.

So Please get up and write one comment and be the first one to appreciate this piece of work.

#Appreciate others #be the first one to appreciate #Good habit

4 Killer Ways To Avoid Procrastination

Now this is the fact that we all are Procrastinators some are at beginner level and some are seasoned Procrastinators. Procrastination is the state of mind which help us to postpone our objectives and goals till tomorrow, till day after or if possible till infinity. In between what we will lose we damn care about that.

I was a seasoned Procrastinator till some time back, I use to never believe in Walking in morning, because for me, sleep at that time is more important than walk. I use to give very low priority to walk and high priority to sleep. I never realized that anything ever can happen to me because my weight is almost near to weight height ratio. But one fine day I started having pain in my knees, since I was a seasoned procrastinator at that time, I told myself that it might be that I am doing office work and moving around which might have resulted in that, I was trying to be self deceptive. But when it became unbearable, then only I decided to go to doctor who advised me to go for walk on daily basis and drink more water or else your knees pain will become severe and can result in arthritis.

I then devised a strategy which I now want to share with you. 1. Join some group - I tried to find the friends in my area who go for regular walk in morning and requested them to just give me call in morning whenever they are starting for walk. I have to get up for the morning walk, as I don’t want to be Lazy duck in their eyes. This helped me a lot and I now owe my wellbeing to those friends and also thank them for helping me in overcoming procrastination.

2. Plan incrementally – I suggest that you can overcome the Procrastination of any form by using this. Take a baby step. I have one of my friend who use to procrastinate the reading of books, I advised her “For you just pick the Book from the book rack and open the first page will be the baby step”. She started getting the results. People get overwhelmed by the tasks and then they start procrastinating, for them this is the best way to overcome that. Start working on the smallest task and the one with high priority first, you can see the result. Some people tend to be perfectionist and so start procrastinating, for them also, they can start perfecting the smallest and high priority job first, and then move on, and they can also see the result.

3. Pat your back – Whenever you achieve the smallest success in overcoming the Procrastination by taking the baby step or by planning incrementally. Just enjoy the day, have a beer, go for long drive. You have achieved the meaningful success, it’s not an ordinary success.

4. Place a poster at your workplace and at home stating “DO IT NOW”. By looking at the poster you will constantly get reminded and you will see life will become very easy after that.

So don’t procrastinate in giving a comment on my blog. Hurry up and be the first one.
