It’s hard to look at life the same way again, even though I know I should be happy.

12/02/2025

It might sound a bit strange since I’m in my 30s, have a decent job, a house, a wonderful wife, and two beautiful kids, but I can’t help but get lost in memories of my childhood.

I was listening to the song “What’s Up” by 4 Non Blondes that randomly played, one that used to be my favourite when I was younger, and it immediately took me back to those carefree times. I remember those long school holidays, waking up to the sound of birds outside, and lying in bed for what felt like forever, too excited to get up. We’d spend our days with friends flying kites, running around, and just doing whatever we could. Then, we'd return home to delicious meals, sitting together as a family. There are so many other exciting memories that I can’t possibly list here.

I think back to my birthdays, rushing to open presents and eagerly waiting for my friends to come over to celebrate. I’d even lie about my age to seem more grown-up. The day I finally got a bicycle—after begging for so long—was such a big moment, especially since my parents had said "no more pets" (I had loved having many pets), but they made an exception for the bike.

I definitely had good old days, filled with exciting chapters and stories. I’ve travelled to many places, all around Nepal, and I must say, I’ve seen about 40% of India on various occasions for work, study, and travel. I have a treasure trove of memories from my school days in Darjeeling and Delhi (I still remember those scorching hot days in Delhi when temperatures surpassed 47°C, and the time our cooler broke!).

After reflecting on all of this, I picked up my guitar and sang some of the songs I loved as a kid, the ones that made me dream of becoming a good musician. Playing those familiar tunes again, in a new place, brought back so many memories. I thought about my uncle from Russia, who introduced me to music—he’d gather us all together and play for us all day. To me, he was like a superhero.

Now, I’m back at work, stuck in the same old routine, but I can’t shake the feeling of being overwhelmed. My heart feels heavy, and I find myself wishing I could go back to those simpler times.

It’s hard to look at life the same way again, even though I know I should be happy. Is it normal to feel this way?

 

BigData, Cloud and Internet of Things

The Internet of Things.
.
The next generation Technology that will change the world how we perceive today. There will be a dramatic changes on every thing we do.
Machine to Machine communication is the reality of the next Information Technology era. Major challenges expected to the Internet, Network, Data Service Providers due to generation of trillions of data in a day through sensors to Fog to the Cloud. BigData is the only solution to managing these unstructured datas. Furthermore, the inception of IPV6 and 6LoWPAN can tell us how many devices can have individual IP Addresses and they can be communicated publicly as well. The numbers is more than number of atoms that exist on earth.
.
.

Imagine the unimaginables without any boundry because unimaginary things are going to happen soon. BigData , Cloud and Internet of things are coming together so better be prepared to have basic programming, networking, security knowledge. Because lot of manual jobs are going to be replaced by automation (M2M)
.
.

For Example: The Rise of Cryptocurrencies, it is trying to Remove Bank and Financial Institution that works as an agent in between customer and service providers. The huge threat to Bank and Financial institution if they don’t update themselves in respect to the digitization. Likewise, in health sector, transports, aviation, agriculture, industries and so on.

The advancement now is unstoppable. I repeat ...... The technological advancement now is unstoppable  ...... Equip yourself to fit in.

What do you want to become in life?

Some Incident,


They asked me to write down on what I wanted to become in life. I wrote down "HAPPY".

They told me I didn't understand the question, I told them they didn't understand life.

Life is a Journey.

 Life is a journey. We’re all going somewhere.

Life feels good when you’re happy, healthy and whole…when things are going well and you’re at the top of your game.

But life also brings disappointments and pain. It could be a marriage that didn’t work out, the loss of a loved one, or failing to live up to your own expectations.

We spend our days pursuing “perfection”—in work, in body and in life. We get caught up in becoming the best version of ourselves.
But, at the end of the day, we weren’t made to be perfect. We were made to be free.

Free from the hurts and the pain of our past. Free from the hits we’ve taken in life. Free from the bullies that pushed us into the places we never thought, nor wanted to be.

We all struggle to find light in those dark places.

The question is: how do we find it?

And even when we figure it out and get the life we want, you have to know it doesn’t last coerced

Are you safe in the Internet ?

How often do you log onto the internet?  Daily? Several times per day? 

And how many of those times do you consider how your actions might impact your own safety and that of your family? How often do you think about being safe online?

You may not give it much thought as you go about your daily tasks, but it's time to start!

As parents, we put our children to bed each night and promise to watch over them.  We lock our doors, close the windows and ensure our home is a safe environment for our families.  Unfortunately while we're locking up physically, we forget about the very real threats that enter our lives via our own internet connection.  Sometimes those threats spam you, sometimes they just annoy you and, unfortunately, sometimes they do worse.  The increase in popularity of social networking, coupled with our increasing desire to share, connect and gain visibility is making it even easier for unsavory people to gain access to our personal lives and that of our families.

Potential Dangers

1.      Strangers gain access to your family's private information

a.       Home address
b.      Phone number
c.       School information
d.      Family location
e.      Other personal information that can help identify you or your family offline

2.      Phishing scams
3.      Spammers gain access to your email or messaging system & send viruses in the form of an email from you
4.      Stalking or unwanted attention from strangers
5.      Identity theft
6.      Offline theft due to knowledge of homeowner's whereabouts
7.      Discrimination based on personal views and beliefs
8.      Exposure to bullying, hate or other negative materials
9.      Exposure to inappropriate content for minors
10.  Termination of employment due to inadvertently leaking sensitive work information or negativity towards an employer
11.  Encouraging negative behaviors by providing easy and frequent access to negativity and poor behavior from others along with a sense of anonymity

What To Do About It!

1.      Limit who can see what you post
2.      Limit what you post
3.      Don't create passwords that are common -- "Someone found out my Facebook password. GREAT! Now I have to change my dog's name!"
4.      Don't click on every funny or intriguing link you see
5.      Don't vent about your job, a friend, co-worker or boss online, EVER!
6.      If a friend sends you something that is out of character for them, don't open it! Contact them separately and ask if the message was from them. Their account may have been hacked!
7.      Be respectful of other's photos and personal information.  Don't share anything you don't have permission to share.

8.      Be aware of what you've done and posted online. Don't fall for messages that say "Ha Ha, did you really do this? (link)".  It's a virus!
9.      Review your personal profile. Don't share personal information even within the confines of your personal and private profile (year of birth, address, phone number, etc.)
10.  Don't allow children in your home to use social media unmonitored
11.  Talk to family members about online safety (this includes young and older family members)
12.  Know EVERY ONE of your child's friends online and ensure they've personally met everyone they have friended.
13.  Set ground rules for online safety the same as you would offline.  Remember Stranger Danger?
14.  Run regular virus scans on your home computers. A few good programs include:

a.      Symantec
b.      Norton
c.      McAfee
d.      Kapersky
e.      AVG

15.  Review the privacy settings on each of your social and sharing platforms
16.  If you are sharing pictures of children online, consider a private Flickr group that allows you to invite only specific viewers via email. Other sites specifically intended for photo sharing may also be good options. Just remember to check the privacy settings so you know who you are sharing with and turn off the geo-location settings so others can't see where photos you've uploaded directly from your phone were taken.

Social media and other online platforms offer wonderful opportunities to connect with friends and family.  They are a necessity for marketing your business and offer unbelievable opportunities when used correctly!  Just remember, you can't take it back!  Once you've published something online, it is available to other people and often search engines.  You can delete it from your own sight but you can never retract it!  Individuals and businesses alike have come face to face with this very hard reality.  You've lost control of your voice and often your own personal photos and information.  A careless comment, a thoughtless moment or an innocent photo can quickly turn into a nightmare for you! 

Take a moment to take your own safety and reputation seriously. Understand who may be looking at what you post online and take the extra time to determine if you really want to share your personal thoughts, views and photos as part of a a permanent record.  If you wouldn't want to see it in the newspaper headlines tomorrow then reconsider posting it online today.

Do you have concerns about being safe online?  Share your questions, concerns and the solutions you've come up with to protect your own privacy in a world where sharing rules!

Tribute to my Elder Father

Tribute to my Elder Father

Name : Dilli Kumar Hyoju
Cause of Death = Brain Stroke
Date = 2016 18th of May
Age = 96

Words cannot express the shock I had on hearing the news about your sudden demise. It is difficult to believe but yet to come to the reality , everyone of us has to cross this phenomenon one day. The only difference is time.

Thanks to a bit that we talked a little while we visited the home. To talk about his character, he was strong resilent and positive person, easy to handle even at his age of ninety six. Having living with diabetes for 50 years he was very disciplined in terms of eating habits and medications. He never ever complained but cautiously accepted whatever came.

We were planing for his 100 years but then his younger brother ( my father ) pass away. That was 3 months ago. I could see his tears and saying as wishper " My younger brother - The legendry has expired . The end is near for me too. No one can fight the end and it is universal truth."

In the name of god I would like to pray both souls rest in peace. Now it is the time for the next generation to lead.

POEM 

Good Bye My Fathers.

1. Bishnu Kumar Hyoju 91 = 2016 Feb 9
2. Dilli Kumar Hyoju  96 = 2016 May 18

Goodbye I have to say
One for a  few months ago on a cold winter day
Other for this day in the month of may

I’ll remember the good times and try not to be sad
But saying goodbye to fathers still hurts so bad

We miss you both more then we can express
Our love for you will never grow less

We keep trying to imagine how we will go on
We realize tomorrow is another dawn

We know you’re in heaven above
Looking down on us with all your love

Only to whisper in our ear
Remember that we'll never stopped loving you dear

We’ll always remember the good times we had
Remember the men, our wonderful Dads

We’ll remember you each and every day
And if We need to talk to you, We’ll just sit down and pray

One day we’ll be together again
To talk about all the places we been

Until the time We’ll always treasure
Having you for a Dad was such a great pleasure.

REST IN PEACE.

You are not everyone’s cup of tea and that is OK.

The world is filled with people who, no matter what you do, no matter what you try, will simply not like you. But the world is also filled with those who will love you fiercely. The ones who love you: they are your people.

Don’t waste your finite time and heart trying to convince people who aren’t your people that you have value. They will miss it completely. They won’t buy what you are selling. Don’t try to convince them to walk your path with you because you will only waste your time and your emotional good health. You are not for them and they are not for you. You are not their cup of tea and they are not yours.

Politely wave them along and you move away as well. Seek to share your path with those who recognize and appreciate your gifts, who you are.

Be who you are. You are not everyone’s cup of tea and that is OK.

A TRIBUTE TO MY DAD

My father died on February 9, 2016 at the age of 91, a little over a month after being diagnosed with brain stroke and lungs infection.

As I was thinking about writing a tribute to my Dad I thought -- How can I say a few words that do justice to all of the years of love and strength that Dad gave us?  I hope that the real tribute to Dad will be the actions of my (our) lives -- that we are a testament to the love and lessons that he instilled in us all! HOWEVER WITH GREAT RESPECT AND LOVE , I am writing this as my tribute to him.

Before I tell a story about my Dad I wanted to relate to you a bit about the strength behind my Dad – my Mom. As a son I never realized the dedicated love that she had for my father – we always knew the love she had for us by all of the selfless things she did for us without ever fussing or even letting us know what she was doing – but we did Mom – and that love was always there! . What I just realized this past week during my Dad’s stay at the hospital was that same dedicated love for my father that I never saw – but knew was always there. To see my Mom care for my Dad this last week – from the gentle cleaning of his face, to the constant adjusting of his bed sheets (and sometimes MANY layers of blankets), to the up and down and back and forth to the bathroom, was to see that love demonstrated in action. That made me realize the quiet, selfless, caring loving way of affection that my Mom had for my Dad that I never really knew or appreciated – THANKS MOM!! – but this story is about my Dad so ...

I CERTAINLY HAD A GREAT DAD.

When you’re young, every little boy thinks his dad can do anything. But, as I got older I realized that in my dad’s case it was true. We had much age difference close to 60 years. He was one of the most talented and respected men I’ve ever known.

The Lord gifted him with a mind that could figure things out and I never knew him apply himself to a problem or something that needed fixing or something he wanted to build where he didn’t figure it out.

He never compromised to deliver strength and support in terms of our education. I and my siblings were put to one of the very best schools in town which has been baseline support for all to come to this position. His leadership quality was praised all the time and people followed his recommendations and decisions.

HE MADE MANY MEN A MAN.

My dad was a very helpful character. His help and support made many people achieve goal in life. He held hands of helpless people supported them and taught them to function who now are one of the finest businessmen.

The afternoon before he died, I was able to sit by his bed and hold his hands that were going to be cold. I don’t know if he was able to hear me but my prayer is that he was comforted by the words he knew so well.

I told him....
You taught us to be strong and resilient.... My mother, brother, sister and I are going to be okay when you are no longer with us. There is nothing to worry DAD ... please stay peaceful........ because now I am gonna follow you to be another great Dad and wont let your story end.

THIS IS MY BEGINING.......

What, Exactly, Is Business Development?

What, Exactly, Is Business Development?

“I do biz dev.”

Few times in history have more ambiguous words been spoken.  Ask ten “VPs of Business Development” or similarly business card-ed folks what is business development, and you’re like to get just as many answers.

“Business development is sales,” some will say, concisely.

“Business development is partnerships,” others will say, vaguely.

“Business development is hustling,” the startup folks will say, evasively.

The assortment of varied and often contradictory responses to the basic question of “what, exactly, is business development” reminds me of the way physicists seek to explain what, exactly, is the universe.With conflicting theories on the nature of black holes and bosons, the ultimate goal for those scientists is a Grand Unified Theory, a single definition that can elegantly explain how the universe itself operates at every level.

Lacking any concise explanation of what business development is all about, I sought to unite the varied forces of business development into one comprehensive framework. And eureka, for I have found it - the Grand Unified Theory of business development:

Business development is the creation of long-term value for an organization from customers, markets, and relationships.

There is elegance in simplicity, but perhaps this definition leaves you wanting more.  At its heart, business development is all about figuring out how the interactions of those forces combine together to create opportunities for growth. 


Long-Term Value

First, what do I mean by “long-term value?”  In its simplest form, “value” is cash, money, the lifeblood of any business (but it can also be access, prestige, or anything else a company seeks in order to grow).  And there are plenty of ways to make a quick buck for you or your company.  But business development is not about get-rich-quick schemes and I-win-you-lose tactics that create value that’s gone tomorrow as easily as it came today.  It’s about creating opportunities for that value to persist over the long-term, to keep the floodgates open so that value can flow indefinitely.  Thinking about business development as a means to creating long-term value is the only true way to succeed in consistently growing an organization.

Customers

The “customers” portion of the definition may be slightly more obvious – customers pay the bills.  They are the people who pay you for your products and services, and without them you won’t have any business to develop.  But not everyone is a natural customer for your business. Maybe your product doesn’t have the features I’m looking for.  Maybe your product is perfect, but I don’t even know your company sells it.  Or maybe you’re not reaching me because you’re not knocking on my door.

Markets

That’s because customers “live” in specific markets.  One way to understand markets is by geography – if I only focus on selling in the U.S. but you reside in London,  then you are currently unavailable to me as a customer as I do not currently reach the European market.  But customers also “live” in markets that are defined by their demographics, lifestyles, and buying mindset.  Identifying opportunities to reach new customers by entering into new markets is one important gateway to unlocking long-term value.

Take for example the Pet Owners market.  The customers who live there, of course, are people who own cats, dogs, fish, etc.  Petco is a company that clearly sells to customers who live in the Pet Owners market.  I, on the other hand, do not have a pet.  I don’t live in the Pet Owner market. So what if Petco wanted to sell something to me? Then they’d need to find a way to enter into a market where I do live.  For example, I have red-hair and pale skin and as such, I am prone to spontaneously combusting when exposed to the sun.  Therefore, one market that I “live” in is the Sunscreen Buyers market.  If Petco wanted to sell something to me, perhaps they can find a way to enter into that market by offering sunscreen, hats, or sun-reflecting aluminum foil suits.  Now, determining whether that’s a good idea or not for Petco to do so is a job for the business development team – and another story for another blog post.

Relationships

And then there were “relationships.”  Just as the planets and stars rely on gravity to keep them in orbit, any successful business development effort relies on an underlying foundation of strong relationships.  Building, managing, and leveraging relationships that are based on trust, respect, and a mutual appreciation of each other’s value is fundamental to enabling the flow of value for the long-term.  Relationships with partners, customers, employees, the press, etc. are all critical to the success of any business development effort and as such they demand a bold-faced spot in any comprehensive definition of the term.

So, is business development actually sales?  Is it partnerships?  Is it all about hustling? Well, frankly, yes.  It’s all of the above and as we’ll see in future posts, it’s much more.  It’s a complicated and fascinating discipline that deserves a clear understanding, so that we can marvel at the beauty of a well-done deal as much as the stars.

Why You Should Never Stay in The Same Job For More Than 4 Years

This is not your father’s job market. Long gone are the company lifers from yesterday who invest their entire careers to a single position within a company. Welcome to the age of job promiscuity, where regularly changing jobs is not only tolerated, it is encouraged.



This paradigm shift is a fairly recent phenomenon and can arguably be traced back to the .com rise and fall of the late nineties. Regardless of the reasons for the shift, the current employment climate relies on greater personnel manoeuvrability and agility. As such, you will notice that fewer and fewer people are staying in their jobs for periods longer than 3 or 4 years. Here is why you should be one of these people.






Rapidly evolving skill sets


It is human nature to get comfortable and settle into a predictable routine. If you are able to perform your job competently, there may be little motivation to consistently be improving or updating your skill sets. If this describes you, don’t worry – you are not alone. But you may want to check out what’s happening on the job market. Companies are evolving daily how they do business and how they staff their positions. What is a necessary skill set today may not be required tomorrow. And vice versa. If you have been at your job for a number of years, check out Monster’s job search section and find comparable jobs that are currently open. Take a look at the job requirements and see if they match your skill set. You may be surprised what employers are currently looking for.



Technological advancements


As technology evolves so does the face of entire industries. If you are working a technical job, keep your finger on the pulse of what is happening in your industry. While your current employer may not be adopting new platforms or technologies, their competitor’s might. If you are, say, a Windows Systems Administrator and have been with your company for several years, there may be entire lines of software and hardware that is completely foreign to you. If you haven’t been keeping up with these changes over the years, you may have a hard time taking the next step in your career. You don’t want to become a dinosaur in your industry by staying at a job for too long.



Perception


Imagine you are on a date and discover that your companion has just come out of a 12-year relationship. Think about how you would perceive that person and how they may relate to you. Unfair or not, you will make assumptions based on the longevity of their previous relationship. Your reaction would not be unlike that of a hiring manager when evaluating the resume of a candidate who spent the preceding 12 years working for another company.
Will this person be easy to train?
Will he/she adapt well to a new environment?
What made this person leave after so many years?
Are their skill sets up to date?
Are they motivated?


The questions are endless and can be enough to put off a potential employer.






Career Advancement


While you can remain in the employ of a company for many years, holding onto the same position for more than 4 years can be problematic. If you have aspirations to evolve within your company, you should be looking to do so within 2 years of joining. If you have been in the same seat for 4 years, you may want to consider other options.



For example, if you are happy with your employer but stuck in a position with no growth, you can try branching out to other departments within the same company. Additionally, many companies also offer continuing education benefits so inquire as to whether you can qualify for some subsidised courses to help grow your skills. As always, you should consult with your manager if you are feeling this way as they are in a great position to be able to advise you. The key factor here is to always keep moving forward; stay ahead of the competition by keeping your eyes ahead of you.


Do keep in mind that being a little too promiscuous with your career can also be damaging. Jumping from job to job is rarely seen in a positive light as it can give the impression that you are not reliable or dependable. Also, jumping from job to job can affect your seniority and can often feel as if you are taking a step backwards whenever you join a new team.


As with anything in life, think carefully before making any major career decisions and do take the time to see what is happening in your respective industry to see how it can benefit your career.

A jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft.


The HR manager interviewed him, then gave him a test: clean the floor. The man passed the test with flying colors.


"You are hired," HR manager informed the applicant, "give me your e-mail address, and I'll send you the application for employment, as well as the date you should report for work.


The man replied " I don't have a computer, or an email!"


"I'm sorry," said the HR manager. "If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And we cannot hire persons who do not exist."


The man was very disappointed.


He didn't know what to do. He only had $10 with him. Once that is spent, he won't have any money to buy any food.


He went to the supermarket and bought a crate of tomatoes with his $10.


He went from door to door and sold the tomatoes in less than two hours. He doubled his money.


He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with $60. He realized that he can survive

this way. He started to go everyday earlier, and return late.


He doubled or tripled his money every day. Soon, he bought a cart, then a truck. In a very short time, he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.


Five years later, the man became one of the biggest food retailers in the U. S. He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance.


He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan.


At the end of the conversation, the broker asked him for his email address.


The man replied: ' I don't have an email.'


The broker was dumbfounded. "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded in building an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?," he exclaimed.


The man thought for a while, and replied, "an office boy at Microsoft!"

The Management Tips 2

  3 Tips to Build Better Relationships with Your Employees

When people feel connected to you, even difficult conversations feel less threating. Here are three tips to forge stronger bonds with your employees:

• Relate whenever you can. View every interaction as an opportunity to get to know someone a little better. Make a habit of asking employees one question about their work or their personal lives each time you encounter them.
• Take note of subtleties. People seek emotional connection through countless small “bids” for attention—questions, gestures, or looks. Take stock of how much you notice these cues . You might also solicit some feedback from friends and family on how well you listen and respond to social cues in general.
• Regularly express appreciation. Research shows that the ratio of positive to negative interactions is 5:1 in a successful relationship. You don’t need to pay someone five compliments before offering criticism, but do be mindful of the ratio.
• 

Stop Talking About Yourself When You Apologize

Admitting a mistake can fall flat if you apologize the wrong way. The victim of your screw-up does not want to hear about you. Instead ask yourself: Who am I talking to, and what is he or she looking for in my apology?

• A stranger or mere acquaintance wants you to offer compensation or some redeeming action. Compensation can be tangible, like paying to repair your neighbor's fence when you accidentally back your car into it, or emotional, like being extra thoughtful.
• Your colleague or friend wants empathy. When you recognize and express concern over the suffering you caused, the victim feels understood and valued, and trust is restored.
• Your team wants an acknowledgement of the rules and norms you violated. Basically, you need to admit that you broke the code of behavior of your social group or organization, and that you recognize you let them down.

Help Your Company Cut Back on Email

You can’t control how many emails you receive, but you can control how many you send. In a recent study, one firm’s workers followed suit when their executives reduced overall email output. You can spark a similar reduction and improve efficiency across your organization by doing the following:

• Choose the right medium. Consider whether your communication merits a phone call or in-person meeting, where vocal tone and body language provide real-time feedback on how clearly a message is being understood.
• Be deliberate. Don’t forward messages unless strictly necessary, and limit the number of recipients on each outgoing note.
• Make it real. Set a target for reducing the number of messages you send. Include it in your performance goals to keep yourself honest. 

 

A 1-Minute Trick for Better Negotiations

How do you negotiate better? Simple: Beforehand, take a minute or two to focus on what you have to gain and what you hope to achieve – and banish all thoughts of what you might lose. List everything you hope to accomplish and the ways you will benefit if you are successful. Re-read this list just before the negotiation begins. Throughout the exercise, it’s important to try not to focus on what could go wrong. Great negotiators stay focused on their ideal target, despite the risks they face. With practice, this focus-training will become easier and, eventually, automatic. 

 

 

Where Your Company Shouldn’t Compete

The first step in setting a winning strategy for your company is deciding where you will do business. But you need to be careful in these choices. Here are two places you should avoid:

• Your biggest competitor’s space. It’s tempting to take on your strongest opponent head-to-head. But most often their market will be essentially a walled city. Instead look for competitive areas that enable you to attack from unexpected directions, along the lines of least resistance.
• The white space. Being a first mover in unoccupied territory is an attractive position. But remember that there is only one true first mover, and all too often that space is already occupied by a formidable competitor that you probably don’t see or understand.

 

 

Make Good Decisions Faster

A simple approach can help replace your slow deliberations with fast decisions. Try this framework:

• Know your ultimate objective. The biggest hurdle to fast decisions is criteria overload. Of the seven or eight possible objectives you would love to meet, which one or two will make the biggest impact? Consider which stakeholder you least want to disappoint—which goal would they care about most?
• Get a second opinion. Asking one other person can broaden your frame of reference and help eliminate judgment errors. Plus, the act of explaining your situation anew often gives you fresh insights.
• Do something. Select one option while letting go of all the other "good" ones. No amount of deliberation can guarantee that you have identified the "right" option, but remember: The purpose of a decision is not choose perfectly, but to get you to the next decision.

 

 

Avoid the Pitfalls of Positive Feedback

Praise should motivate your employees, but in some cases it does just the opposite. Here’s how to make sure positive feedback actually works:

• Don’t cushion the blow. Don’t routinely say something “nice” before giving criticism. Doing so conditions people to hear positive feedback as a hollow preamble to your real message. Lead instead with your investment in the relationship and reasons for having the conversation.
• Praise effort, not personal attributes. Intelligence, talent, or abilities are mostly innate and cannot be actively replicated. Instead, compliment effort and explain exactly what actions prompted your approval. If you’re specific, you’ll reinforce the desired behavior. 

 

 

Build a Climate of Trust

Humans “read” body language and facial expressions to discern if others are trustworthy, but some situations – like change or confusion – prime us for distrust. In the absence of information, the brain works overtime. After all, we’re programmed to anticipate harm and protect ourselves from it. But even when your team lacks clarity on a situation, you can still build a trusting environment. Think about a time when your boss and a colleague starting meeting regularly and you didn’t know why. You probably started wondering if you’d been left out of an important project. Leaders can shift people’s thoughts away from threats by fostering an open, transparent environment in which everyone shares and discusses as much as they can about what’s really going on. This sends a strong signal to everyone’s lower brain that “trust is in the air.”
