ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR FAMILY DOCTOR

The Power of Pausing

The Power of Pausing

By: Brian Tracy

All the top salespeople ask good questions and listen carefully to the answers. One of the most important skills of listening is simply to pause before replying. When the prospect finishes talking, rather than jumping in with the first thing that you can think of, take three to five seconds to pause quietly and wait.

Becoming a Master of the Pause
All excellent listeners are masters of the pause. They are comfortable with silences. When the other person finishes speaking, they take a breath, relax and smile before saying anything. They know that the pause is a key part of good communications.

Three Benefits of Pausing
Pausing before you speak has three specific benefits. The first is that you avoid the risk of interrupting the prospect if he or she has just stopped to gather his or her thoughts. Remember, your primary job in the sales conversation is to build and maintain a high level of trust, and listening builds trust. When you pause for a few seconds, you often find the prospect will continue speaking. He will give you more information and further opportunity to listen, enabling you to gather more of the information you need to make the sale.


Carefully Consider What You Just Heard
The second benefit of pausing is that your silence tells the prospect that you are giving careful consideration to what he or she has just said. By carefully considering the other person's words, you are paying him or her a compliment. You are implicitly saying that you consider what he or she has said to be important and worthy of quiet reflection. You make the prospect feel more valuable with your silence. You raise his self-esteem and make him feel better about himself.

Understanding With Greater Efficiency
The third benefit of pausing before replying is that you will actually hear and understand the prospect better if you give his or her words a few seconds to soak into your mind. The more time you take to reflect upon what has just been said, the more conscious you will be of the their real meaning. You will be more alert to how his words can connect with other things you know about the prospect in relation to your product or service.

The Message You Send
When you pause, not only do you become a more thoughtful person, but you convey this to the customer. By extension, you become a more valuable person to do business with. And you achieve this by simply pausing for a few seconds before you reply after your prospect or customer has spoken.

Action Exercises
Here are two things you can do immediately to put these ideas into action.

First, take time to carefully consider what the customer just said and what he might mean by it. Pausing allows you to read between the lines.

Second, show the customer that you really value what he has said by reflecting for a few moments before you reply.

Who is a teacher?

We should learn to respect the teachers for a wonderful job they are doing for our children. In ancient India Teachers were a very respected persons.Unfortunately today the situation is not very encouraging.

Who is a teacher?

This is a very good one !
very moving !

From A School Principal’s speech at a graduation..

He said ”Doctor wants his child to become a doctor………
Engineer wants his child to become engineer……
Businessman wants his ward to become CEO…..
BUT a teacher also wants his child to become one of them..!!!!
Nobody wants to become a teacher BY CHOICE” ….Very sad but that’s the truth…..!!!

The dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life.
One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem with education. He argued,
“What’s a kid going to learn from someone who decided his best option in life was to become a teacher?”

To stress his point he said to another guest;
“You’re a teacher, Bonnie. Be honest. What do you make?”

Teacher Bonnie, who had a reputation for honesty and frankness replied,
“You want to know what I make?
(She paused for a second, then began…)

“Well, I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could.

I make a C+ feel like the Congressional Medal of Honor winner.

I make kids sit through 40 minutes of class time when their parents can’t
make them sit for 5 min. without an I Pod, Game Cube or movie rental.

You want to know what I make?
(She paused again and looked at each and every person at the table)

I make kids wonder.

I make them question.

I make them apologize and mean it.

I make them have respect and take responsibility for their actions.

I teach them how to write and then I make them write.
Keyboarding isn’t everything.

I make them read, read, read.

I make them show all their work in math.
They use their God given brain, not the man-made calculator.

I make my students from other countries learn everything they need
to know about English while preserving their unique cultural identity.

I make my classroom a place where all my students feel safe.

Finally, I make them understand that if they use the gifts they
were given, work hard, and follow their hearts, they can succeed in life

( Bonnie paused one last time and then continued.)

Then, when people try to judge me by what I make, with me knowing money isn’t everything, I can hold my head up high and pay no attention because they are ignorant. You want to know what I make?

I MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN ALL YOUR LIVES,EDUCATING KIDS AND PREPARING THEM TO BECOME CEO’s ,AND DOCTORS AND ENGINEERS……….

What do you make Mr. CEO?

His jaw dropped; he went silent

5 Resume Mistakes to avoid - Very Useful.

There’s one magical thing that can get you the job of your dreams.

Contrary to popular belief, it isn’t nepotism, sycophancy or even a bribe; it’sa small document called the Curriculum Vitae, or Resume. Even though most of us recognise the importantance of a resume, we don’t carve out enough time to give our resume the attention it deserves. Often, CVs are shoddy, incomplete, irrelevant and, sometimes, downright hilarious.

Here are five mistakes you need to avoid to make sure your CV is a winner.

Mistake 1: Writing too much

“Length is the biggest problem, with most CVs often being a minimum of three pages. I once receive da CV that was 11 pages long,” says Purvi Seth, vice president ofShilputsi Consultants, a human resources development firm.

More often than not, literary aspirations come tend to the fore when one iswriting a CV; people end up filling pages and pages of details. Thosewho can’t find enough details to fill the pages write the same thingover and over again, in different styles, words and jargon.

A prospective employer faces two choices when he or she takes the firstlook at such a CV — hit the delete button or hire a professional copyeditor to cut the chaff and find relevant matter. BTW, even though copyeditors come cheap these days, employers prefer the former. So: i.Keep it short; ideally, a CV should not go beyond two pages at most.However, if your achievements are really great, one extra page is negotiable. ii. Keep it sweet, i e relevant.

Anything more than that and your CV will make a beeline for the paper shredder.


Mistake 2: Writing too little

If it isn’t one, it’s the other. Consider this CV:

‘Worked as product manager for HLL between July 2000 and September 2003.’

Does it indicate anything besides the fact that the person worked for HLL?

Fancy designations do little to explain the kind of work you might have done.

So,in your enthusiasm to adhere to the guidelines in Mistake 1, don’t forego your job responsibilities and details about the company or the department you worked for.

The above should read:

‘Worked as product manager, between July 2000 and September 2003, for the colour cosmetics division of HLL, a premier FMCG company in India, witha turnover of Rs 2614.07 crore.

‘Job responsibilities included overseeing the operations of the department comprising 10 sales managers, setting targets for the team, keeping track of market trends and coordinating between the production,logistics and sales functions.

‘Under my supervision, the department posted an annual growth of 40 percent.’

This gives an indication about the kind of work the applicant has done and his/ her achievement. However, beware of going overboard with thedetails of your job responsibilities.

“One of the applicants was looking for an administrative job, and housekeeping was one of the functions. The CV mentioned ‘making surethe toilet bowls remain clean’, as one of the job responsibilities,”laughs Seth.


Mistake 3: Irrelevant details

Does it matter to your prospective employer if your eyes are blue and if you belong to thevaishnav gotra of the Brahmin caste?

Chance sare it doesn’t, unless you are applying for a job that depends on your physical attributes or you are penning down a CV for matrimonial purposes.

Similarly,your star sign, details of family members, list of affiliations to hobby clubs (unless they complement your profession in some way),height, weight, colour of your hair and eyes, complexion and otherdetails are of no consequence to the prospective employer.

Ditch these and use the space to highlight your achievements, your strengthsand your qualifications. The latter needs to be to the point. Forexample, your latest education and degrees are the ones that matter,not your kindergarten marks. So, be stingy here — include whatmatters, trash what doesn’t.

“I have seen CVs that included details of grandfathers and their professions too. One person had also included his blood group in theCV. These facts make no difference to the employer at all,” says Seth.

“Some of them also add their body statistics. This can be entirely done away with unless you are in the showbiz or airline industry.

“Another mistake I have noticed in many CVs is that people mention their religion. This is unnecessary unless the job is for candidates of a specific religion only,” says Tushar Guha, managing director ofNrityanjali, an institute for personality development and management services.


Mistake 4: The information flow

Most people start with their birth date and list everything in chronological order. So, if they started with ABC company at the age of 18 and arenow, say, 38 years old and work for XYZ, chances are they will start their career history with ABC and list XYZ last.

This is a strict no-no because,to the prospective employer, your last jobprofile matters more than your first one. Few employers like to spend an hour on a CV searching for the last position held by the applicant.

This applies to educational qualifications too. A CV favours reverse chronological order. Stick to it.

“Most of the time, professionals writing their CV list their qualifications and their work experience in chronological order. The order should be reversed in order to bring the crux of the CV upfront,” says Guha.

Seth gives the example of a CV which started by listing work history that dated back to 1983 first and then went on to 2004. She had a tough time looking for the current job.

Hobbies should come towards the end, but shouldn’t be done away with. “They provide an insight into the applicant’s personality. These days, the emphasis is not only on your skills but also on your personality,” saysGuha.

Mistake 5: A CV-ful of jargon

Is your writing style is lucidly ex-pressionistic, highlighting the hidden angst of an existential life?

Wow! But what the heck does that mean? Even if your to-be-employer is SalmanRushdie, he wouldn’t want to spend time trying to understand what allthose big words and jargon add up to.

If you think your use of jargon indicates your knowledge of the industry,think again. Most of the times, the CV goes first to the HR department.They are the ones who choose if you are fit to be called for an interview.

Out of comprehension, out of mind. It’s that basic.

	Nevertake some one for granted,Hold every person Close to your Heart becauseyou might wake up one day and realise that you have lost a diamondwhile you were too busy collecting stones.” Remember this always in life.
