Positive Attitudes at Work (Part 2 of 2)
2008-02-23 16:59:00
In my previous post, I argued that positive work attitude is what makes a workplace the best workplace there is, and that it is indispensable to career success. No doubt that as a professional, you were hired because of your education, skills, and experience. But another big reason, where many young professionals don’t know, why an employer chose you over other candidates is simply because of your positive attitudes. How, you may ask? Based on more than a thousand interviews I made in my career, attitudes (good or bad) easily surface during the interviews, and even prior to the interview itself, like waiting for the interviewer at the lounge. Okey, I will not delve on that. That topic deserves a post of its own.How do you develop positive attitudes at work? Let me state, that it should be your objective or goal to identify the positive attitudes that you need to develop as you go about with your work everyday. But here, let me offer Six (6) KRA’s (Key Result Areas -pardon t...

A Yuppie Advise: On Auto Insurance
2008-02-23 16:47:00
I drive an average of 100 miles a day from home while calling on clients. I have witnessed the ugliness of vehicular road accidents; in fact I have been in two in my entire 15 years of driving. One almost killed me. My car was a total (almost) wreck. The insurance company disputed my claims for some technical reasons. However, in the end we arrived on a settlement that I will have the car repaired and they will just reimbursed me the entire expenses. Why the heck am I relaying this here? Simply put, auto insurance will save your ass when the need arises. Yeah. Besides the fact that you should not be driving your own car if you do not have one, for it is against federal laws. If you are comparing auto insurance quotes, here are the most basic things you need to ask: Will it cover your car in cases of collision, regardless of who is at fault? Will it cover cost on injuries in cases of accidents? Will it cover cost of damages on properties? Will it cover personal injury or comp...

A Yuppie Advise: Line of Credit
2008-02-22 18:01:00
I have always believed that young urban professionals are better at personal finance management because of the unreasonable demands of urban living. Every twist and turn means expenses. Advertisements call out or beckon for them to spend their hard earned dollars in vanities. Where, after you are bought into buying a particular product, you regret it and condemn yourself for giving in. Here their business senses are tested.However, there are still a few who simply do not know or simply ignore basic personal finance management.Multiple lines of credit are always being offered to young professionals everyday. These are sometimes unavoidable especially in times of financial needs. But caution though when getting a loan on any of these offers. Here are a few considerations before availing a line of credit: Is it collateral free? Is it convenient to apply? Is it confidential? Is the interest rate lower than other offers?These are the basics yet often ignored. Get a loan when there is n...

Chargeback Protection for Online Business
2008-02-21 20:44:00
We know live and do business in the virtual world. It is even wrong for me to say that it is till ‘virtual,’ for what we do in the internet is real, and is occurring in real time. One tangible proof of that is selling online seamlessly. You advertise or market and sell your products, any where in the world over the net, and you get to have customers buying them and paying you online through their credit or debit cards.With that, you get business profits in returns. How about chargebacks, you may ask? These are no profits, these are losses. Is there a way to prevent this from recurring? Yes. You can safeguard your business profitability, as well as credibility, by employing a chargeback protection through preCharge. It offers the best service to date in this category and you can be assured that employing their system, you will never pay another chargeback again.

Uninterrupted Power Supply, Uninterrupted Business
2008-02-21 14:12:00
I had taken once the challenge of managing PPIC (Production Planning and Inventory Control) of huge manufacturing company. It was a side stint actually. When the department Manager resigned and there was no immediate replacement, I was asked to take over for more than six months until we hired the right guy. It was an entirely different experience, plus the new responsibility really posed a tough challenge to beat.One of the problems that I had to address then was the seeming regular power outage occurring within that industrial zone where our two plants were located. I was tasked to supervise the design, outsource, and installation of uninterruptible power supplies in the critical areas of the operations. Among those we considered were installing 2 units of 150Kva diesel generators and 10 units of 5Kva UPS on selected machines.It was rather rough for me. It would have been easier had I knew about the refutable services offered by Power Continuity. They have over 20 years of track...

New Ads Network in Town
2008-02-19 18:56:00
Hear ye! Hear ye! Hear ye! There is a new blog advertising network in town.BlgAds Blog Advertising Network offers one of the most cost-effective advertising schemes on the net.

Obama getting the endorsement of US Powerful Union
2008-02-16 16:59:00
It is the biggest endorsement, so far, coming from organized employees and professionals for Obama . AP Labor Writer, Holland, reports today:"Sen. Barack Obama is expected to be endorsed Friday by the Service Employees International Union , one of the nation's most powerful, union officials have told The Associated Press. The sought-after endorsement would be Obama's largest from organized labor, and give him a powerful boost against rival Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton in the March 4 presidential primaries in Ohio and Texas. The 1.8 million-member union is likely to endorse Obama on Friday, the union officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media."(read full story here)Would this be the much sought block that will turn the tide in favor of the Hawaiian born Senator from Illinois?IMO, in any presidential race in any democratic country, the endorsements of Prominent Unions, like SEI, are to be reckoned with.

A Yuppie Advise: Recession Resource
2008-02-15 18:34:00
Some would still argue that the recession is not yet here, while others argue otherwise. Recession or not, a working professional is supposed to manage his finances well. A job is not forever. A job is only temporary. A job may be taken away from you anytime for various reasons that may sometimes beyond your control or liking. While you are still earning a decent income from it, save while you can. Should recession hit you sprawling, then you are better prepared than the rest and you do not have to run to an online loan facility. On the other hand, loan online facilities, like AmericaOneUnsecured could be a good recession resource should you have not saved. By using its service, you benefit from its extensive knowledge of today's most active lending sources. Its specialty product is a signature loan that can be used for any purpose, with no collateral required. Application is easy, no documents required, confidential, and approval is quick.

Above Professional Career and Values
2008-02-10 19:07:00
Young urban professionals are characterized as goal oriented and highly driven individuals. The drive to succeed, soonest, is a creed and a need. They will do (almost) anything to succeed. This is very evident in the corporate worlds where the aggressive and the go-getter get the accolades, promotions, and the comfy office with your own personal refrigerator. At the price of what? Family? Relationships? Health?Some, in order to cope they resort to prohibited drugs. The added boost is needed. Then, too late to realize that they are already hooked. Then they begin putting this new found vice above their professional career, values, and even important relationships. Productivity and creativity begin to disappear, and sometimes unnoticed. What happened next? More likely, joblessness and a ruined career. These things can be avoided. Above all, if you are hooked, there is a cure –drug rehab.These things can still be reversed.

Four Reasons Why Buying a Business or Franchise is More Practical
2008-02-07 21:22:00
A decade ago I learned my most bitter lesson in business. Although most of my corporate years were spent on HRM practice, I did spent three precious years of my young professional career in sales, and managing my own business. Surprise, surprise! I did. I started out my career life, fresh from college, as a Corporate Training Professional. In those years I have developed and taught modules on Business Management and Sales. I did well, modesty aside. However, I was training people out of theories, like an academician rather than a practitioner. So, I decided to test my theories in the field. I took a career sidesteps in sales.I put into practice what I taught about sales, and before long, I was one of the top sales professionals of my firm. I was making a lot of money, and so I decided to put up my own trading business. The first three months were robust. I made more money. Then, I started hiring more people to help me. In less than a year, against my expectations, I had to...

Help for Professional Graduate Students
2008-02-03 18:44:00
Let me clarify the title. What I meant by professional there are those young professionals or not so young professionals who are pursuing graduate degree programs while working. To me, that is a tough feat. I was one. Managing a huge department and working with a very demanding CEO while completing my MBA is a hell of a work, mind you. Deadlines can sometimes come at the same time. Reports to submit to the boss , and industrial psychology term papers to submit to your professor are sometimes impossible.Although I have not availed the services of a writing service firm, I would gladly recommend it to those who are pursuing graduate programs and at the same time are doing multiple tasks at work. This way, the academic pressure is off from their back, and they can concentrate more on the job. A literature thesis or any other topical thesis papers are time consuming. Professional help in these cases is needed. This is not cheating. It is imply smart work.Visit also these cool BLOG...

How many years can a mountain existBefore it's washed to the sea?Yes, 'n' how many years can some people existBefore they're allowed to be free?Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,Pretending he just doesn't see?The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,The answer is blowin' in the wind.Many years back, I simply love humming this song popularized by PPM (Peter, Paul, and Mary) whenever am alone in the dormitory and thinking about my parents back home.

Positive Attitudes at Work (part 1 of 2)
2008-01-30 16:59:00
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes .” (Charles R. Swindoll)Each organization or company has its own unique corporate culture, like individuals. There are companies who demand that emplo...

A Yuppie Advise: Choosing a Cash Advance Facility
2008-01-29 18:56:00
Short on cash? Nah. Am not going to lend you, silly. Okey, you failed to adhere to what I previously advised –you did not save. No worries, try again. Now, another financial crunch? Make a cash advance. But wait, before you do, check if the lending facility was reviewed and rated by TrustSource.Org. Otherwise, do not make haste. There are a host of cash advance facilities out there who are more than willing to bail you out of your financial difficulty, but not all of them are trustworthy or reliable. Make no mistake. Getting an unsecured and quick cash advance loan from a not-so-worthy lender may further cause you to sink in debt. As always, compare prices and interest rates, repayment options, loan application requirements, and customer services. Better yet, read the reviews and ratings made by satisfied borrowers at TrustSource, then pick a lender among those. As they say, better safe than sorry.Visit also these cool BLOGS: My Sense and Sensibility HRM Business Practic...

Work is No Work
2008-01-29 16:59:00
Work is either fun or drudgery. It depends on your attitude. I like fun. (Colleen C. Barrett)It was observed by industrial psychologists, that "highly effective people" (borrowing Stephen Covey's term) are those who viewed work as no-work at all but a privilege and a calling. These people, they further assert, are the most creative individuals in the organization. Not only that, they spur others to do the same. This view goes directly against the most common notion about work -as a burden laid on man. "Work for them becomes sacred and serving," as F. J. Kong puts it. It is no longer a burden. It is no longer a 5-8 filling the time ritual every working day but something else, nobler, more fulfilling, and more dignified. Work is no-work when you enjoy doing it, you are purposeful, and your perspective is positive.The true way to render ourselves happy is to love our work and find in it our pleasure.

Quality Sound FX
2008-01-29 03:20:00
What really fascinates me about digital movies is how the soundman meticulously and expertly reproduced the sounds that come out. The intensity of exchange gun fires, the riveting explosion, the earthquake where you can literally feel the tremors under your feet, the sounds of the animals in wild life setting where you can experience having been there yourself (remember jumanji?), and so on and so forth. These sounds are reproduced with clarity and realism by the technical expertise of people like BRICE CARRINGTON. Visiting TrexTones.com was such a delight. I could not help myself but listen to the sounds the sounds he expertly reproduced there. They are so real, albeit ‘watermarked’ –how much more when they are not. How does he reproduced these sounds? I found out that what he actually do is record different natural sounds, fuse them, and come out with a unique and realistic sound. So, you do not simply hear a mimic, but a real sound.

A Good Head Start
2008-01-29 02:40:00
While I was visiting my doctor for my annual executive check-up, I read this on a picture frame hanging on his office wall:“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.”True enough, these hits the bulls-eyes for those of us who recovering from drug addiction and alcoholism, and have undergone drug rehab or treatment. Complete healing and recovery comes only when one has decided to leave the former state and move on to a new one.Other drug rehab centers seemed to have failed to see this. Luxury Rehab is commendable in this aspect. For, not only are they operating their center in an exclusive and private location in Malibu, California, unlike other drug rehab facilities that are little more than a hospital-like setting. It is located in a private home on a secluded estate, with fabulous views of Malibu’s world-famous beaches. That means people will not know you are in a drug rehab facility. Here you get personal, hands-on tr...

Unique Way to Advertise
2008-01-29 01:52:00
The advertising industry is probably one of the most dynamic and vibrant. New technologies and approaches are almost emerging on a daily basis, especially advertising campaigns over the internet.Last November 2007, Jay Nussbaum (Writer, Real Estate Lawyer, and Teacher) wrote and published a novel entitled: A Monk Jumped Over a Wall. The novel centers on a young attorney at a Manhattan law firm whose clients include a company that brutally forecloses on home mortgages. When he tries to help a family keep its home, he finds himself in trouble with his firm and is taken on a new path. The apparent subtext of the novel is about finding one’s true purpose in life. Incidentally Jay’s life’s purpose is writing and teaching others about finding these answers for themselves.To date, this novel is gaining notoriety due to his unique marketing campaign to promote it –Nymphomercial. Sounds like kinky huh. A bit, maybe. However, it is no x-rated thing or any similar offensive materia...

Preventing Drug Addiction in the Workplace
2008-01-27 16:58:00
I read this on an old newspaper, and I thought it would be appropriate to open this post with this observation by Margaret O’ Rourke:"Public perceptions of alcohol and drug abuse differ widely. Some people believe it is a moral problem that individuals bring on themselves and therefore should have the strength of character to overcome. Some see it as a law and order issue, others as an illness where the drug user is a blameless victim of a chronic disease. Whatever the perceptions, there is no doubt that addiction is a chronic, relapsing and sometimes fatal disorder, characterized by compulsive, often uncontrollable, drug seeking." (The Weekend Australian, Weekend Health, November 29-30, 2003) I agree with Margaret there, that whatever is our perception of drug addiction, this physiological disorder needs drug treatment. For the more serious cases, a longer drug rehab is required.Drug addiction is also prevalent among very aggressive young professionals. The pressure and stress a...

Affordable Lifestyle and Getting Out of Financial Crunch
2008-01-26 18:35:00
“You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don't make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you.” (Maya Angelou: An American Poet)Money will always be our primary goal why we work. That I cannot deny, lest I be labeled as a hypocrite. We work hard in order to make a living, a comfortable and decent lifestyle. While we try to pursue fulfillment in our careers, we are always motivated to work through our earnest desires to earn more. However, in spite of those, what we earn at the end of the day could not barely catch-up with the relentless price increases of basic commodities, utilities to pay, cost of tuition fees for our kids, gasoline and maintenance cost for our car, apartment rentals, credit card payments, and much more.Affordable Lifestyle I always encourage my people to save, and choose a more affordable lifestyle, and live within their income, but in spite of those ...

Seven Keys for Joyful Living
2008-01-19 10:39:00
A friend of mine emailed this to me. An article written by Chris Widener. Let me share to you the entire article without my editing. I hope this one causes you to reflect on what you are doing right now with your career, business, and life in general.Here are some thoughts for finding and experiencing joy in your life. If there were one thing I could wish upon my family, friends and the readers, it would be joy in everything they do!1. Know your purpose. Nothing will bring you joy more than knowing what it is that you are about on this earth. Not knowing brings sadness, wondering, fear and lack of fulfillment. Above all, find out what your unique purpose is here on this earth - then fulfill it! As you do, you will experience joy!2. Live purposefully. This is a follow up to number one. It is one thing to know your purpose, but then you need to live according to that purpose. This is a matter of priorities. Let your actions and schedule reflect your purpose. Don't react to circu...

A Yuppie Advise: Getting out of Bad Credit Loans
2008-01-16 22:02:00
So, you are in big debt huh. We have just begun the year my friend. No worries, I understand your predicament. The holidays are expensive, mind you. However, this should not pose as an excuse to run into bad credit loans.The beginning of the year is a good time to be resolute in cleaning-up your financial mess and get into a healthy pocket. I mean, straighten-up your finances. How? Take a look at what BadCredit Offers advise. Next time, before you fill-out a loan application form, consider what you are entering into. Many are hit daily by bad credit offers because they failed to review the terms, interest rates, and repayment schemes. This site will help you make an informed decision. They have evaluated hundreds of credit offers already and are still reviewing others on a daily basis, so that consumers like us can only get the best offer that will suit our needs. This way, you do sink further in debt, but instead rebuild your credit rating as you make your prompt payments.V...

What is more important than a successful career?
2008-01-13 02:38:00
Easily, we are now on the 10th of January 2008. Whew! I have my list of priorities for the year and as I go through them (I do this almost thrice a day since I wrote them last year, that is, 30th December 2007.) and review each item, I realized that nine out of ten were all actually career-success focused. I seem to have left some valuable goals that are more important than a successful career. I forgot to include (1) cultivating quality time with my son, (2) visiting my old folks more often, (3) socialize more with my friends, and (4) nurturing my ‘dying’ spiritual life.While doing my usual reading on the WSJ, I came across this inspiring video about the ‘last lecture’ given by Professor Randy Pausch of Carnegie-Mellon University, and it made me rethink about my priorities.

Rugby: A Gentleman’s Game and a View at Life and Career
2008-01-12 10:01:00
A rugby game is one of the few field sports that I love watching because it depicts completely my view of life and career as a young professional. Winning here does not rely on a single star player. Unlike other field games, a rugby game is a choreography of men’s sheer prowess, intelligence, passion, and teamwork willed into one. Take a view of your life and career in this way, you will succeed. There’s a lot to be learned in this game that meets the eyes. I would like Victor Cahn to express the rest of what I meant:"In our country, true teams rarely exist . . . social barriers and personal ambitions have reduced athletes to dissolute cliques or individuals thrown together for mutual profit . . . Yet these rugby players, with their muddied, cracked bodies, are struggling to hold onto a sense of humanity that we in America have lost and are unlikely to regain. The game may only be to move a ball forward on a dirt field, but the task can be accomplished with an unshackled jo...

A Yuppie Advise: If you save, you will not run into debt
2008-01-12 00:27:00
Yeah, we kept on hearing it repeatedly from our parents, peers, friends, and bosses. Yet, this basic concept seems to have no bearing in our day-to-day financial decisions. We might have included saving a portion of our income in our list of New Year’s resolutions, but I bet this is taking the back seat now. Believe me when I say that this little short term ‘sacrifice’ (in fact is not sacrifice at all in a positive perspective, but to some habitual spenders –it is) can actually save your ass in the long term.Now if you run into a financial crunch, without this saving, do not panic and do not lose face by borrowing from friends. Avail only of short-term payday loans. These type of loans have more advantages than long term loans that usually tie up your money even before you earned them. Payday loans are fast unsecured loans in times when you desperately need them. Applying for a cash advance payday loan over the internet is a fast way to fund a personal checking or savings ...
