Women Day Special | 5 Tips for Women to Kick Start the day

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

To make the maximum use of your work time it is very important how to start your day/morning. Its only when you strat your morning right you can hit your full efficiency. If the morning doent start well the whole day goes by and you dont feel good or satisfied. So a good morning routine can make it a whole day productive and you feel motived for the rest of the day.

Here are 5 simple Tips to have a maximum productive day  :

1. Make sure you sleep well in the night

You must try and get a full 8 hour sleep in the night to be fresh in the morning. Lack of sleep means lack of productivity feeling dull and short attention span through out the day.

2. Have a routine activity every morning

Spend half an hour for some physical activity and follow it regularly. A 20 min morning walk or Yoga works wonders to most of the working women. You feel fresh and motivated. Get in the habit of doing something every morning that requires some discipline.

3. Eat healthy Breakfast

Eat a good and healthy breakfast before you start your work, Include Fruits, Milk, nuts etc in your breakfast. Try to introduce some variety every morning in the breakfast. Never leave house without eating in the morning.

4. Prioritize your important Tasks

Making a task list every day is not enough. Focus on important tasks first. Tasks that will make you feel that you have something productive. So go about your task list priority wise. Keep the least important things at the end. Plan properly before you leave the house, even the route if you have to go to various places. Take 10 min.s to think, take all the important documents, files, cheque book, pen etc.

5. Get into work mode

Once you are done with your morning routine and are ready with your task list, get into action. Dont think of all the distractions and just focus on doing your work. Whether you’re working from home or go to office, routine helps you kick start your day better.

Have a great Day !

11 Rules you did not and will not learn in any school

Friday, March 5th, 2010

Rule 1 : Life is not fair - get  used to it!

—————

Rule 2 : The world doesn’t care  about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good  about yourself.

—————

Rule 3 : You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car, phone until you earn both.

—————

Rule 4 : If you think your teacher  is tough, wait till you get a boss.

—————

Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not  beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

—————

Rule 6 : If you mess  up, it’s not your parents’ fault , so  don’t whine about your mistakes, learn from  them.

—————

Rule 7 : Before you were born, your  parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk  about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent’s generation, try  delousing the closet in your own room.

—————

Rule 8 : Your school may have  done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they’ll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This
doesn’t  bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real  life.

—————

Rule 9 : Life is not divided into  semesters. You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

—————

Rule 10 : Television is NOT real  life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop  and go to jobs.

—————

Rule 11 : Be nice to nerds. Chances  are you’ll end up working for one.

Women’s Day Special | Women Middle Age crises – 5 Tips to handle Middle Age Crises

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Women’s Day 8th March 2010

Age gracefully - Accept your age gracefully and the matured look too. Anti- Wrinkle creams will not hide your age and promise to make you look younger. A recent study has proved that none of the anti wrinkle creams reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Also remember salt and pepper hair look attractive. Think Kabir Bedi, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Nafisa Ali.

Dieting doesn’t work for long - No crash or magic diet works. A salad can not replace lunch, uou’ll end up having a double sandwich an hour later. To reduce weight, the only route is to eat little and exercise more. So do not waste time on the various diet plans given by famous dietitians. Size zero in the middle age is not really possible for most of us so don’t bother.

Dressing Up - If you have to ask your husband or daughter if the short dress suits you or not then it definitely doesn’t. Its ok not dress with latest fashion trends if you feel not so confident. Wear what you can carry well. Saree looks very elegant and stylish. Learn to take compliments on your looks gracefully as they are going to reduce with age.

Prioritize your work : The house work is not the only thing to accomplish. Bonding with your teenager children, quite meal with your love one, catching up with friends on coffee or catching the latest film in the theatre is lot more satisfying than being the perfect housewife.

Learn to Love and pamper yourself – Luxury is fun so if you can afford a good spa treatment or an exotic holiday go for it. It makes you unwind from routine and you fell rejuvenated and exited for long. Don’t always think of saving money. Celebrate your birthdays big time to enjoy the memorable moments with friends and family. Enjoy the presents. Learn to spend time alone with your TV or book.
