Habits of unsuccessful people.
Habits of unsuccessful people. Bad habits die hard. And while having one doesn't necessarily make you a failure, that doesn't mean you shouldn't work on dropping some of your worst vices.
Some bad habits could cause others to view you as unsuccessful, while others may be indicative of a larger problem in your career — and life.
1)Keeping your mouth shut
You keep your head down. You don't speak out. You don't get out of line.
Your aversion to putting yourself out there professionally may seem like a good protective measure, but it's holding you back.
If you feel like your current work environment actively discourages people from sticking their necks out for fear of reprisal, you may be dealing with a toxic work environment.If you're just psyching yourself out, though, you've fallen into a terrible habit.
2) Always running late
We all have that one friend who is constantly late. Or maybe you're that friend who is constantly late (I know I am).
In your career, though, tardiness can't be excused by a few desperate, emoji-ridden messages to your friends' group text. Showing up late makes you look careless and unreliable.
3) Procrastinating
I'll tell you all about the downsides of procrastination later.
Just kidding. Seriously, though, indecisiveness could lose you time, money, and even the respect of those around you.more.
The art of negotiation.
The art of negotiation.A good negotiator finds a mutually acceptable way forward, instead of being at loggerheads with people who hold different views or who are working toward different goals. He or she will skillfully close a deal, agree a new training plan, set a schedule, or fine-tune processes. Good negotiation leads to better working practices, and increased satisfaction in the workplace and in life in general.
You have negotiated successfully when you navigate through, or prevent, conflict, achieve an acceptable solution to a mutual problem, and agree follow-up actions that both sides are willing to implement. Ideally, you will achieve your own goals as a result, but often you will have to compromise.
An important point to remember is that negotiation isn't limited to "big decisions." Whether you're discussing a potential pay raise Add to My Personal Learning Plan for a team member, saying "no" Add to My Personal Learning Plan to a task from a co-worker, or even choosing a Friday-night takeout with the family, you can use negotiation skills several times a day, for challenges large and small.
So, how can you prepare yourself for negotiation? The art of negotiation: more
Theory X and Theory Y in the Work Place.
Theory X and Theory Y in the Work Place.What do you think motivates your people to come to work each morning?
Do you believe that they get great satisfaction Add to My Personal Learning Plan from their work and take pride in doing the best possible job? Or do you think that they see it as a burden, and simply work for the money? These assumptions about your team members can have a significant influence on how you manage them.
In the 1960s, social psychologist Douglas McGregor developed two contrasting theories that explained how managers' beliefs about what motivates their people can affect their management style. He labelled these Theory X and Theory Y. These theories continue to be important even today.
This article will explore McGregor's theory further, and we'll look at how it applies in the workplace. Theory X and Theory Y were first explained by McGregor in his book, 'The Human Side of Enterprise,' and they refer to two styles of management – authoritarian (Theory X) and participative (Theory Y). read
Overcoming Obstacles and Recognizing Effort.
Overcoming Obstacles and Recognizing Effort. Who comes to mind when you think of a successful, intelligent and talented person? Perhaps someone like American inventor Thomas Edison, whose improvements to the light bulb has made it a symbol for moments of brilliance?
But, while Edison was a highly intelligent and talented individual, he wasn't born a success. And he didn't develop the light bulb in one day, or even on his own. It took a long, slow process of curiosity, dedication and hard work.
In her 2007 book, Mindset, renowned Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck says that it's not intelligence, talent or education that sets successful people apart. It's their mindset, or the way that they approach life's challenges. more

A comprehensive review of studies conducted in both animal and human subjects have found the leaves of the Moringa oleifera tree to significantly reduce blood glucose levels and thus can be held potential as a potent anti-diabetic treatment as an addition to the diabetic medicines.
