  Being lonely is a normal part of our everyday lives.  We get sad when we fail in our exams, when we're rejected by the person we love, or when someone very close to us passes away.  Depression, however, could be more fatal than just plain loneliness.  It could render life-long consequences that could ruin your self-esteem, health, and well-being.   Here are some superb tips to conquer the melancholy mood and get the most bliss out of your daily activities.   1) Get Enough Light and Sunshine.   Lack of exposure to sunlight is responsible for the secretion of the hormone melatonin, which could trigger a dispirited mood and a lethargic condition.   Melatonin is only produced in the dark.  It...

Want to demonstrate that you have what it takes to be an effective leader and have people follow your direction? Be humble! That lesson echoed with me as I read a David Brooks column in the New York Times in which he describes listening to an archival recording of 'Command Performance,' a radio variety show originally broadcast on V-J Day. Celebrities abounded but according to Brooks, 'the most striking feature of the show was its tone of self-effacement and humility.' Victory was welcome but marked with dignity. Leaders who want to inspire followership, and I use the word 'inspire' deliberately, need to demonstrate not simply their accomplishments but their character. Take pride in what yo...

Hi All, Came across a nice artical, thought beneficial for all HR professionals : What else does it take to K.E.E.P your employees satisfied? "People work for much more than a paycheck." Most employees are looking for common elements from the people they work for . People, regardless of position, seek a good " Relationship with their manager ", " A positive work environment ", and " Praise and recognition ". Successfully combine these three elements and implement them effectively and you have created the foundation for a great retention strategy. It is obvious that these crucial elements have little or nothing to do with compensation. Instead they remind us an important fact: People work for much more than a paycheck. People not only want their jobs to be a source of income but a source of attaining pride, professional development, enjoyment, and acknowledgment of their skills and efforts as well. With this in mind, I would like to introduce to you a retention-boosting method,...

China has been thriving in recent years and has been named as the “World’s factory” because of its high production and low labor cost. It seems to be a trend now to import goods from China directly since there will be middleman in between and hence one can get the latest and cheapest products. China offers a vast array of products and to track something down that is suitable, you are going to need someone who knows the country well. He or she can advise you very quickly if you are likely to find a company where you could place your order and thereby increase your margins. Here are some of the things that you will need to establish before working with an import agent: Full product details with drawings / graphics Packing presentation details Branding requirements Certifications Safety standards required Date product is required Quantities (min order quantities apply in most cases) Also you need to take care of the following things if you are planning to import from China; Products...
