How to use our time and resource?

Time management means to manage and utilize time. But In simple language, we can say that making the list of work for the whole day and setting the deadline of every task according to time. So, The benefit of time management is that we will not waste our time and also use the time to do better in life.

The disadvantage of not falling into time management is that we have plenty of tasks and can’t do them in the stipulated time, As a result, We also feel stress.

WHAT’S IN IT

1. Time management- preparation list

So, This tells us that we have to make a list of all the essential things for the day. Making a list will help us plan required time for the required Task. Sometimes there’s a lot of time and lots of work, hence this can be the method to solve this problem.

So, In simple language, we can say that making the list of works of the whole day and setting the deadline of every task according to time. Hence The benefit of time management is that we will not waste our time and also use the time to do better innovations and ideas.

So, The disadvantage of not falling time management is that we have plenty of tasks and can’t do it in insufficient time.

2. Delegation

Delegation means that you have made your list, and there is a specific task that others can also do. For example, if your task is the getting service done of the bike, you can give it to your family or friends. Hence, they will do it for you, It will make lessen burden and in that free time we can do other Tasks.

3. Classifying the work into urgent and important Table

So, you can classify the work into urgent and essential. Thus, It will help you to get a list of specific tasks that you have to do urgently. So we should categorize the job, and it will be easy for us to identify which work we have to do. Sometimes we also spend a lot of time doing the work which is essential but not urgent. For instance, We have to make a habit of classifying the work into necessary and critical. Thus, It will save time and lessen the burden.

For example, I can give you a Task, which is non-important but urgent. For instance if you are out and you want to call your mother and say that I am out and I will be staying out in my friend’s house. So this works chief, not urgent.

4. Ability to realize goals

So, If we do proper time management, we have more time to spend in our daily lives. Most importantly, all successful people have managed to save their time and money. So, If we do not manage time, we will not be able to realize our goals and achieve them in life. Meanwhile, If we follow time management, we will be able to achieve our goal. Thus, that’s one of the essential benefits of managing time.

Although, We will end up losing the whole life. But having a successful person says that I want to succeed; we have to utilize the time. So we will waste the time we will end in losing our whole life. So, Please follow the time management to be successful in life.

5. Taking a break between tasks

Meanwhile, The necessary process of time management is taking a gap between tasks. This is necessary because we get good ideas from the brain, and we will do the Task without stress and burden. But Singing capability of and we will result in getting more and more useful results.

But the Times when the person doing the work will not be able to complete his work at the right time. It will work for the day. But will not get ideas from the brain, and sometimes the mind is full of stress, and a successful person says that doing the work the whole day is not the key to success.

Hence, It is the most common reason for depression and stress. And our mind will also not be a functional space while doing that work. It is essential to ask when our mind is at the peak, and the thinking capability of the brain is highest, so we will get more and more innovations in that work, and we will get good results. So if we want to be happy, we should be following the Funda of taking the gap between tasks.

So, It is an essential key to success in life and I will give you an example, and you will know more about this topic and its importance. For instance, Rahul is doing the work at night and has a lot of work and even can’t do that work at that time only so he will do the job in extra time and his brain will be full of stress, and he will not be able to complete that work thoroughly.

On the other hand, makers are doing the work in the morning. They are thinking on top, and he will do the job much better than Rahul and the devil also less stressful and less burden. So, Follow the habit of taking the gap between tasks and It will help you to succeed in life.

6. Organize yourself

It means organizing our mind before doing any task. Meanwhile, Meant arranging yourself for any job and giving the mind instructions of doing that work at that time only. So, It will make your brain alert and more proactive, and you will get better results after doing that confidence and happy after doing that work in this fashion.

But we can say that arranging ourselves meals to arrange our mind according to that particular Task. So, Pause I can give you a better example to understand this topic. For instance, we are going to a wedding, and if we go ready, we have to wear clothes and That means we can say that we are arranging ourselves for the wedding and we can say the particular Task.

Successful persons always arrange themselves and their mind before a critical task. it’s not compulsory that we should organize ourselves on an outstanding job. We can also hold ourselves in small Tasks so we can get a habit of arranging ourselves in every Task. Some people don’t organize them before going to any task, and they think what we have to do in it. If we have arranged ourselves and our brain will not have to remember what we have to do. Just automatically, what in work we have to do for the Task. So prepare yourself in every small and big Task so that you can get a habit of arranging and organizing. This was an excellent process of conserving and utilizing the time.

7. Create a time audit

This is also an essential process of managing time. So, We can say it in simple language that creates a deadline, or we can say a time limit or audit for a Task. We have a habit of creating a time audit, not waste time, and preserve that time. Sometimes we do just 30 minutes in one or two hours.

We are spending that one or one and a half hours in that task only, but if we create a time audit, we can use that one and a half hours in doing other essential tasks. It will save and utilize our time. Milan stories of successful persons always complete the Task asks in the required time limit that doesn’t just waste time and the time they are left with. They utilize it in different Tasks.

I can give your example of how to understand this topic. Suppose Rahul thanks that he is doing the homework for 1 hour, but he does it in 2 to 3 hours. That’s the advantage of not following the time audit. The one who will develop time review and control of the time and utilize it to know more and more things and gain knowledge.

Sometimes we waste a lot of time watching television and phone, but instead of this, we should watch much knowledgeable staff on the phone like knowing about anything. This is the habit of every successful person. They stick the time limit and whatever the Task that completes in a time limit only. It means they are giving the main instructions that I don’t have to waste time. We have to complete the task at that time limit only.

The bread will act according to that only. There is thought that what you will put in your brain will reflect out if you will boating garbage in the garbage will come out, and if you are putting some good thing in a mind, the good stuff will come out. Main persons know about that thing, but no one follows that, and they just are wasting time.

8. Wasting time

This is the topic we don’t have to follow in time management. But almost 90% of the population supports this topic. This critical topic is wasting time. Every person is wasting their life in terrible things and is not putting that brain in good deeds.

Many people say that we do not deserve to be some success, and we are not. The time there is wasting, they don’t tell this to anyone—just being excuses that this was the problem and why can’t we do that task. Every person knows the importance of money, but no one or very few once see the importance of time. Everyone thinks that I will earn that much amount and that much amount, but no one believes that the time they waste is beyond the money.

The money you can bring back but the precious time you can’t bring back. That’s why some people are not successful, and successful people do not follow this topic at all. Don’t support this habit of wasting time under any circumstances. Many people say that I Don’t have this much facility but giving excuses is not the solution.

Finding the answer is a good thing, but giving the reason is not a good thing. Which is just saying that we don’t have many facilities, but we can think the successful person doesn’t have anything, but they struggle and they time innovatively? And then end up being the master of that thing and be successful.

You should take the education not to be successful but to be that deserving that you can be successful. Runoff behind the success does not come if you run behind the excellence the success will come in front of. So I am requesting everyone that don’t waste this precious time, please utilize this time to get anything innovative and many more things.

So there are two persons a and b 20 wrestling the whole time and watching TV and mobile phones, but utilizing the time and doing many more exciting things and innovations and realizing his passion. Who you think will be more successful is wasting the time of the person who is utilizing the time. An obvious answer is a person who is using the time.

Although I think you all have come to know about the importance of not wasting time. There is a marginal difference between successful and prosperous people. The successful one will not waste time. But the person who is not successful will spend his time. That’s the fundamental difference between successful and unsuccessful people.

9. Minimize distractions

This means eliminating the things which distract you from doing something. This is called distractions. The topic is minimizing directions around you. Should be ignored, thanks which district us. We always have a habit of saying mobile phones when we are doing an important task. So to minimize distraction, that is the mobile phone we should keep it away from us.

The word madness means the things which are stopping you from doing any work. So you may ask a question about how to be away from distractions. The answer is, don’t focus on the madness.

Only focus on the work; ultimately, you will be away from distractions. Many PayPal that there is much destruction around entertainment is nothing but their mental focus in that Task. But their mind is diverting them to another Task. Another way to be free from distraction and be focused is to meditate every morning.

If we are full of distractions, we cannot complete that work of the day, and we have to delay it tomorrow. That’s a waste of time half other, but if we are free from distractions can complete that work in that they only and we do not have to waste the time of tomorrow. If we are doing any work, we should create a peaceful environment.

We should work in a friendly environment free from distractions, and our minds will be at peace, and we can do that work well. So avoiding distractions is one of the most critical processes of time management.

10. Plan ahead

Planning is also an essential process of time management. This means planning before something or some task. In simple language, we can say anything we schedule before the time.

The successful persons always plan for the future. Planning habits is a good habit for getting success in life. Planning helps us to think about the future, what will happen, and what will not. I can tell you about the advantages of the plan.

Like we prepare before the time. Another example is that we are going to the wedding and we are wearing new clothes because we know that at the wedding we should wear new clothes, so we are planning ahead of time. Some people are there who already plan it ahead of time. Some people are there who waste time gossiping and end up failing in life.

Successful people always have a habit of planning ahead of time. It is also an excellent and the critical process of time management.

11. Batch similar Task together

Match similar tasks together to match the time of the same Task and do both Tasks at that particular time. It’s very important to categorize similar and non-similar Tasks. This is important because sometimes we do similar things separately and end up wasting time.

Dash well-developed your time and make you stressed, and your mind will not feel good also. This is the disadvantage of not doing something similar together. Now I am giving you one example. There are two boys, a and b. A bit of a similar dance together.

The birthday does it separately. So they will save it, and b will waste time. The benefits of doing similar tasks together will be less and utilize our time also. We can save time for other important tasks.

Do smart, not hard. This is a very famous and special thought. So we should have to do a similar Task together. So we can manage our stress and time. Although, here we have come to an end of our blog.

Conclusion

In Summary, we will conclude this with the blog with only own advice “Time should be used wisely today, tomorrow & Everyday”. The birthday does it separately. So they will save it, and b will waste time. The benefits of doing similar tasks together will be less and utilize our time also.

WHAT’S IN IT

Use GMAIL for Email Management

I know there are many emailing platforms which we use to create an email but I strongly recommend to use Gmail as it provides many good features and synchronization of an email to make a User experience much more good compared to any other competitor. As a result, Gmail is one of the most used mail in the world. Which is managed by Google(alphabet).

Generally what happens is these mail provider provides space and works totally on advertising and AD revenue. But if you are using Gmail it provides you better User experience + good cloud

storage + ultimate synchronisation + googles support.

These multiple features make Gmail more efficient and effective for a good email management system. So for managing your email you can use Gmail.

Organize it with Labels and Folders

In the first place, I have mentioned that we all should use Gmail for better email support and email management for managing our email effectively.

As Gmail provides organising label and different folder creation to its user but if you are not using it then it is not an issue.

We can create your labels and folders of different types of emails to segregated and synchronize it. As time increases your shoulders will increase, your labels will also increase. List down folder & tags into:

1. Marketing

2. Operation

3. Accounts & Bills

4. Personal

5. Work

6. Urgent

7. Important

Then, organize these things into different folders and labels it is become very easy in future to synchronize at and search for your emails which are important for the purposes & more.

Use the Search Function for Email Management

Above function, I have mentioned for those people who have used our mail ID for emailing different things and maintained it without any proper guidance. So for these people, this function is very important and useful likewise, if we all are using this function we can synchronize and search for different documents with the keywords.

Each document and system is stored in an email it can be from 100 mails tp to 10000 + mails. But in each case we can find are important mails and store it in different folders or with different tags.

If I am looking for an eBook. I can just type “eBook” or search it by pdf format or whichever format is available.

On a one-click are any records with the help of this function so if you are managing your emails this is one of the best features you can use

Take one-time action on Email Management

This is my personal best, like let me explain this it may be difficult to sound but yeah it is one of the best things you can do and develop a habit to manage your emails very effectively.

The term “ take one-time action on email” means you have to spend a quality time but only once for every mail. Like if you got a mail from your aunt, you should directly save into personal and family tag. As it may be important mail from your aunt regarding any of the things.

When you will develop a habit of taking actions once a mail. You should clear the purpose of mail on spot. Whether you are using it or not it’s my sounds difficult but it will be best to do it on spot and never expect it for next time.

Create an Email list for Networking

This is one of the most important parts for any businessman or any freelancer or even in personal life. Like networking is an important part of human life. Whether you are a college-going student or a professional being in any business or job. You have to keep the network.

A network is a group of people that is developed by anyone to get future connections and connectivity to perform various activities. This step is to maintain a good networking list as you have to network with your colleagues, friends or are competitors to know the important things which are required.

I mentioned this because when you maintain this list and whenever you get a mail from your friend colleagues or anyone you can identify the requirement and solve it according to the priority.

Use 4+1 sentence rule

This rule is very effective If you are using it on a daily basis like. If we are using this it will make us more productive for managing your email. Today’s main topic is effective email management.

So this tip is regarding the email response to any of the users. We all should use a five-sentence reply not more than that as the sentence will be more direct for work and it should not be time-consuming. Which will save our time for any task and not waste on reading emails.

Process Email Each Day for Email Management

Overall each and every tip requires a proper discipline and daily efforts. This is is also one of them. We have to develop a habit of giving daily few minutes to process emails.

In this process, we will synchronize our means sorted in different ways- choose between important and urgent. Removing the unnecessary emails, as well as choosing which are good for our things.

However, through this, your email will be fully optimized. Even I can say that this one habit can change many of the things.

Use Bridging Email

Bridging Mail means connecting it with the other mails which are related to the same discussion or conversation.

If we are using this technique then it will not create any interaction in one of the conversational and informational things which help to get the early response on the same Bridge.

The Ultimate purpose of this is to apply one hierarchy of one message with one client to cover all of the aspects of the current situation. If you are not using this technique then it maybe becomes difficult to synchronise it and make it into one consideration

Create a dedicated sign

A dedicated signature is very important for any mail. If you are a professional for a student. You should have an email signature, which will identify you and your contact details regarding the current work.

This signature is very important like it will you tell all about the important aspects of any user. Dedicated signature is used by many corporate firms and their employees to identify the hierarchy and mailing system for effective email management. This technique can be used for personal and professional both the purposes.

Clear out junk for Managing Email Effectively

You should use your trash more often. As there are many meals which are unnecessarily involved in our inbox without our permission. So it is very important to put emails into their best places which are called that trash.

It may sound distracting but yeah we are not using our trash. We should identify the spam emails and marketing campaigns which should unsubscribe or blocked to Manage our email effectively.

Use unsubscribe Button for SPAM

There are many mails that come on a daily basis for advertising and services. Which are not required and not needed in any case. As we all can use multiple unsubscribe button to get rid of these emails.

Did you know, these images are just not spam my but it is also time-consuming. Is more precious than anything ever. And what we all are doing in email management is time saving and making your day more productive.

So it is on main duty to use this button to Mark any spam and get rid of it

#BONUSTIP – Reduce to Reuse

Managing Your Documents and Your Time – The Art of Filing

Hello guys welcome to today’s blog and today we are going to take an amazing topic about. The Art of Filing – Managing Your Documents we have tons of files and documents in our life I am I right.

So mentioning the documents and files there is a thing like we have to manage all those things in a synchronized way as we can find them whenever we are needed.

I find it very difficult sometimes to organize them in a good way and maintain a good book record of all those things so today we are going to take our most searched topic the art of filing which is basically managing your documents and your time.

WHAT’S IN IT

Make it Simple for everyone – Managing Your Documents

So, In the first topic which is simple for everyone documenting is a very the important thing and documenting is just not fixing the things and keeping it all together.

But it is more about keeping things and maintaining them for everyone. So here comes the thing like wherever you are mentioning it or maintaining it you should do one more thing, you should maintain the simplest way of adjusting it.

This simple way is a strategy of organizing the things not in a very complicated way but in a simpler way where you can find your files or documents very easily.

Although many of us like to do it in a way as nobody is going to touch her without her permission but the thing is if you need it at an urgent basis and your family member or your friends is unable to find it then it will be a blunder.

So I suggest you that you should go for a simpler way of filing your things in a very easy way easy yet simple that’s the trick for the first thing which we are learning today.

Maintaining & Managing Your Documents

You know why I am mentioning that thing maintain your documents because most of us have a the habit of not keeping your documents inappropriate way like just remember that the last leap you have kept and you remember where you have kept it’s just not about the receipt.

It is more about the things which we do on a daily basis we have to make a record of each and everything and maintain the documents.

Managing your Documents are of different types from each bill of shopping to insurance services. These are important things which help us to keep these things together.

In the meantime, we are going to learn more about the things how we can manage the documents but the main thing which we have to remember is we have to keep all the things together. And together means like we have to develop a habit of keeping our documents received and any other thing which is related to filing.

Divide Files into Categories for File Management

Filing requires managing your documents, but as we have discussed in an earlier topic like what after it. So my Central suggestion is you have to divide those files or documents into categories.

Yes, there are different types of categories where you can put it out. Ok so, for example, let me just give you things like how I distribute my things and divide into different categories:

1. Personal expenses, such as clothing, books, groceries, and entertainment

2. Medical/dental

3. Utility bills

4. Large purchases and home improvements

5. Bank statements

6. Investments

7. Credit card statements and receipts

8. Pay stubs

9. Tax records

So this is the foremost thing like you have to divide it into categories which will make these things easier for you for everyone. Even in today’s things people usually use to synchronize into a to z, department, etc.

Give a Label to Everything

Well as we are discussing filing so let’s come back to more thing like labelling. Labelling is an important part of branding and marketing. Marketing people usually label things as they have to remember a big line of product or product line. So yeah this is a very good method to remember all those things and synchronize it in two different ways.

So how you can label it let me tell you, You just have to label the things from A to Z are from the product line from the first digit or any of the things which makes it easier to think for you.

What is used to do I use small sticky notes to make a label where I am reading the books where are the important topics and all those things so living is just mentioning kept in a small form as you can remember it according to your convenience or in case of others.

Organize by Importance

You know filing requires two most important things which I am going to share with you that will help you to grow this thing and make your filing more strong and effective.

The most important thing is to divide the things into important and not important. Because there are two types of thing like if its a degree or any certificate. It is a very important thing.

But there are many types of things which are not that important comparatively these things so what you have to do is you have to take a close measure of all those things and give them importance like sum can be most important things, some can be less important things, and some can be just for use and throw purpose. Which has a small. of time use all these things.

Develop a Filing System

This is the most important day which people usually use in pic corporate life and their personal life to maintain a balance. It is not self-development but it’s a filing management tip.

In finding file management you can develop a filing system where you have a schedule to file the things into a system or into your to-do list are into the categorization.

These different things help you to just not only develop but also to manage the things, these tiling systems are helping each other to get a proper hierarchy model. Even in Big Corporates, every new employee gets a training of this filing system as it will help to go on a structured way for a form or for the individual.

So filing system is a very good way to develop a good habit and managing your documents and files into a light way for the corporate and for the personal help as it is effective and efficient.

Maintain Daily Filing

Well this habit is something different but I like to mention that it is not applicable for everyone but who are lazy enough to do these things they can do this like this is basically maintaining a daily filing like you can schedule a time.

Time is an important factor which helps you to maintain a good record managing your documents and files. Maintain daily filing is a system of daily updating your things new files bills reserves and each and everything as it will help you to make a structured way of filing.

In the meantime, there is a way, which helps all of us to accept and apply in these things like if you are applying daily filing methods for each and every document whether it is small or big the page or anything if you are managing all those transactions and all those details it will become really helpful for you and then you don’t need to manage many above points if you are working on a daily basis to this thing.

Become Paperless – Become Digital for File Management

Become paperless, why I am giving a harsh statement. No this is not a statement this is just a cure and many solutions to many problems.

Problems paper is a problem, no paper is no problem but if it missed out then it is a problem. So what becoming digital is, I want to share that like what you have to do is you have to manage all the files which are available and make them available digitally ship time from paper to paperless make different files and save them into your local and cloud storage as it will be available for you anytime anywhere at any cost.

Becoming digital is a good way of making your files managed through the computer. In most of the above topics, digital think automatically gets synchronized in various ways and it is easy to locate by their name class sorting and many more things.

So what are you waiting for you can try for different digilockers, your trusted cloud storage partner and even you can save it your local hard disc.

Make a record of each and everything into these things so you can become digital and even if in case of you lost the paper you have a copy of that.

Which is far better than a memory.

Are one of the greatest things and I strongly recommend you and your family members to go digital and manage your each and every file and filing into digital media as it will be very helpful in every case and it is easily accessible from anywhere anytime at any cost.

Make Personal Office Habit of Managing Your Documents

People are managing your documents and filings into places on personal life or on a professional life if so what people usually do is they collapse each thing and confuse themself and their colleagues our friends in these things.

Just remember if you are maintaining the books of records and you just forget it at home. It will be a blender, but there is a habit you should develop that you have to keep your personal things and professional things totally different because as you are doing this not only help you to make a better habit but make your personal life more good and professional life a bit more effective in front of your boss.

Managing file and the art of filing is just not taking notes and differentiating it by colorful notes and reminders. But it is all about the things which are required to manage things. Things which usually helps us make a better employee at home or at the office.

time management. Which is leverage your time, money and each and everything to achieve much

more with same efforts you will apply.

So what is leverage? Leverage is Art and Science getting the things done with our same efforts

you will apply in the task before.

There is a quote shared by one of the greatest leaders I am going to share it

“Give me a lever long enough and a place to stand, and I can move the Earth.”

– Archimedes

I will just not only tell you about the things but also tell you: how to leverage your life to achieve more in every term of your life. So we are going to see these things and provide leverage and discuss the tips to leverage these things.

WHAT’S IN IT

Leverage Your Time

So in this thing we are going to talk about how to leverage your time. So here is some of the

points. Which I am gonna share for leveraging your time and getting the most out of your time.

A. Organize your day.

Your day is an important part of your time so I personally recommend you to leverage your time.

You should focus on your day-to-day activities and make good use for a day.

And organise your day with the activities which are good for you and which increase your

productivity.

B. Stop doing everything by yourself.

This is a very common habit in each of us:

We want to be done each and everything by our self. Things which can be done with the help of

outsourcing. Well just not only save our time but will also be performed professionally and by

expert. So if you need a plumber you should call him rather than experimenting by yourself that

how to do plumbing.

C. Allow time for yourself.

Time is an important part of each and everything most of our time goes into our family for any

other task. But in this all things we forget one thing that it’s our own time which we have to

follow and applied to it for our self. Waiting for yourself and giving time to yourself. This will

just not only help you thinking about the things which are important and urgent but also it will

leverage your time.

D. Establish deadlines

Deadlines are the good effects in both cases but it ultimately to organise your time and help you

to complete the task within the limits which is a greatest practice of leveraging your time we all

know that our time in this world is limited so why not leveraging it with the help of Deadlines.

Leverage your Knowledge

Knowledge is the one thing which can’t be depreciated, can’t be taken can’t be into lose by

anyone. It can be one of the greatest acids in human life which can give benefits to any person.

Likewise in a company you are getting a knowledge and applying all those things in your life

will keep you to the lifelong process. The knowledge is can be shared with everyone!

A. Keep learning

Start learning, planning is an important part of human life invites humans to evolve from a

normal human being who are smart human being.

This only happens in humans. Different types of people have different types of skills and

different type of things. But ultimately the most important part of it is learning.

Even a person who has zero knowledge have a chance to learn can make so many impacts in his

life and to life of others. So, I strongly recommend you to start learning and make a habit to

leverage your knowledge.

B. Multi-goal

Multiple goals will help you to grow your knowledge like if you have a goal to achieve a car you

will find out that how you can achieve a car.

But it is not just a goal you should have multiple goes like how to achieve new skill set how to

achieve a home how to achieve Degree.

How to impress that girl and many things you have to set a multiple goals for your life so that

you can get multiple reasons to achieve more and more things which will ultimately leverage

your knowledge as you want to achieve these things and you need to find a way to achieve them.

C. Create procedures

The procedure is an important part of life which helps you to drive and help you achieve your

goals very easily like the procedure is a simple method of following someone sparks so you can

directly achieve your desired goal like if you want to go to America.

Then you know you have to go to the airport, check for a flight, complete all of the paperwork,

and you can go to America that is the simple procedure which all have to follow.

3 way each and everything has a procedure which all should follow to achieve their goals

comparatively easy and leverage your time knowledge and efforts.

Leverage your Technology

Leveraging your technology means at the most. Like NASA is using Technologies to identify the

different dimensions of universe. A Farmer is using technology to enrich his farming and

Agriculture.

Same way everyone is using technology to enhance their life and important thing is to use

the technology in judicious manner to get the leverage of what time, money and the other aspects

especially Technology.

A. Use technology.

This advice is for those who don’t know about technology, I strongly recommend to use

Technology in the right way as technology is playing a vital role, and in your hand it has much more capacity than ever

you can do multiple things with your phone, so I strongly

recommend you all to just go for technology think practice and accept the things which are

coming to the future.

We all want a future life so why not go for technology by adapting these things because One day

or not we have to adapt these things like our ancestors for not going to go for cell phones

smartphones.

But today each and every kid students orders in old age people are using smartphones so this is

the can Technology impact in life so I strongly recommend you if you are not using it Use

technology.

B. Use technology to leverage time

Now when you are using Technology you can is use it to minimise your hard efforts in

many cases. You can also see your efforts and get delivery of your product as soon as possible.

The simple way of getting the technology to leverage the time because time is the greatest thing

we want to very effectively and efficiently.

Technology will not only help you to achieve your targets easily but also leverage your time and

outsource the important things which are not that meaningful compared to any other thing.

If you are mixing time and Technology you will get the better efforts comparatively at the

current state of power you have.

Leverage your Network

Leverage your network means connecting with those who are around you and who are not

around you is arrange which we are connected through people object or things like network and

there are many benefits which help you to leverage your life with the help of network and by

leveraging your network.

So I am going to tell you what are the essential things we can do to leverage our network which

will ultimately lead us to getting more leverage over time and your life.

A. Value long-term relationships

Long term relationship is just not not about a couple relationship but it’s all about a relationship

with the people.

We can be connected with many people on a daily basis we meet new people and connect with

them but I what is US long is.

Relationship with them it can be a friends relationship , family relationship, girlfriend boyfriend

relationship, mentor mentee relationship, any type of relation should we with based on a strong

motive.

If we value our relation with it, it will go long and that will ultimately due to greater success as in

most cases we have seen like are relation and our friends family help us a lot during the

circumstances even in our best times they are the ones who will help us in each and every

circumstances.

B. Take a platform to communicate

Try to get a platform to speak in today’s world there is social media where you should

communicate with most of the people to build a greater success and greater network according to

your needs.

In my network I have almost 50000+ followers communicating with me on a daily basis learning

from me and I am learning from them it’s a give and take relationship which runs in every aspect

of life.

You should take each and every platform as an leverage and start communicating with people to

build a network as a network is always a greatest asset in anyone’s life.

C. Use other people’s time.

I know it might sound very difficult or an appropriate but yeah this is the greatest thing everyone

needs something from you money it can be value it can be anything.

The thing is you have to more focus on given take process time of others and give them

something they want it can be in a monetary terms or it can be on a valuable form.

When you will realise the value of given take the relationship become most I will be strong and

is at the end your time and the leverage will be the strongest.

D. Work with specialists who can leverage your time

You know that are smart and professional expertise use less time comparatively any newbie, so if

you are working with the expert who is specialised in his work will obviously give you an

Admin to your work to a field and obviously leverage your time as he is one of the experience

person room.

So focus on building a network with the people who are specialised and who has a good

mentality related to growing themselves.

Leverage your Finance

Leveraging your finance means having aspect of Finance which will give you more monetary

value in heading on the bonuses. We all work for money whether we are doing job, freelancing

or business.

So ultimately the main thing regarding to leveraging your finance means take a overview on the

things which will help you give a add on to your personal finance as about money is the

important thing in all of our lives. So, these topics will help you to leverage your finances if you

reply into your life.

A. Time is more valuable than money.

The actual person who wants to leverage your his finance he has to value the time because time

is the greatest asset which can’t be bothered by anyone the person who has no the value of time

will always win because he knows that time will never return if it is gone.

That person will use his time to get the best return out of all. We all have 24 hours a day that the

irony of time that it works for every way one in the same way. You know the world’s richest man

and you have the same time.

So what is the difference What Makes him richer than you and you are at the same place. Yes

That’s the right thing he values his time more than anyone else.

That’s the reason why he is in the top list. So promise me today that you will value time more

than ever you have done before because time is the most precious asset which we have today and

we have to value it. It can’t be measured in terms of money

B. Charge more than you think you are worth.

Most of the time we underestimate ourselves because we think we are not capable enough to get

the best out of us we need to create a value and our worth. In front of many offers are main thing

is to purposefully charge for the value we are providing to each and everyone.

The value decide your worth. There are many peoples who charge for lacs for one seminar where

as there are some people who barely get any free seminar session.

They all have a worth they charge for the value they are providing to eat and everyone so in

Today’s era to create value and monitor is it and you have to charge it more than what your birth

because you deserve it.

C. Start creating streams of passive income.

you don’t need to put a much time or less time so.

Multitasking -Can It Help You to Get More Done?

Hello guys, Welcome to today’s blog today we are going to talk about Multitasking and Its effect on your productivity.

At the most basic level, this may involve executing multiple perceptual at the same time, such as moving your attention to different tasks.

At a more complex level, this may involve interleaving the steps of many complex tasks.

WHAT’S IN IT

Why Most Of Us Think That Multitasking Is More Efficient

Multitasking is something we all do. You may even be doing it now, Since the word first

emerged in the 1960s, it has gradually risen to prominence, especially as the computer age gave

us ever more opportunities to do multiple things at once.

As the Internet came into existence, these opportunities have mushroomed, with so many of us

having multiple tabs open in our browser as we check our emails, Twitter feed, maybe some

work interspersed with watching dog videos on Reddit.

The thing is that multitasking is generally not good for our productivity, as our attention gets

divided over multiple things and tasks and we end up doing none of them particularly well.

This much is pretty well established, and yet wrenching ourselves free of the various distractions

we face at work can be incredibly difficult.

How Multitasking Impacting Your Productivity?

When it comes to productivity, we always hear that we have to focus on the key at a time. While

this statement is true, we must understand that in order to achieve optimum focus, we also need to know how our brain performs in terms of its cognitive abilities. Once we recognised this, we can easily train our brain to stay focused and productive amidst many distractions.

In their research, When human beings are paying attention to something, that information is

processed in a continuous manner.

Our brains select useful information and ignore the rest So that we can focus on a single

work or a few items in order to make appropriate responses in the world,” says Kyle Mathewson.

However, while our brain is doing its job to help us focus in an environment full of distractions, we are also doing some activities that can kill our productivity and hamper our brain performance.

Does Multitasking Slowing You Down?

It doesn’t matter how much we practice multitasking, multitasking is not going to make you

more productive, Why? Because it’s a myth, let me explain.

There is no such thing as multitasking. Studies show that the brain can only perform one task at a time. The people who claim to be good multitaskers are just good at switching between tasks.

Alternatively, are they? It seems that quick switchers aren’t good at switching. In fact, more

often than not. they’re just doing two tasks poorly. Compared to doing those two tasks separately.

One big problem with multitasking is that it takes longer – every time we try to get back into the task at hand we have to re-shift all our focus, which uses up precious energy.

As has been the case in many accidents on the roads with drivers switching focus, This is why

using your phone while driving is banned. Most businesses suffer from not teaching this to

employees that seem busy and feel busy. Imagine the results that we would accomplish if

everyone stopped trying to multitask. The optimum state for productivity is the ‘flow state’ or

being in the ‘zone’, which means concentrating on one thing at a time with complete focused

attention.

Imagine a top athlete on top of their game.

What Science Says About Multitasking

A recent study found that people who are frequent doing multitasking had recorded reductions in

their brains’ grey matter—specifically, in areas related to cognitive control and the regulation of

motivation and emotion. The people who do multitasking at home over the seven-day period and

found that the more people multitasked, the more likely they were to exhibit behavioural

distractibility.

Current assumptions are that by responding to so many distractions. Andone loses the ability to

distinguish between important and unimportant interruptions. A study of multitasking in the

classroom found that students who do multitasking on their computers during a lecture scored

lower on their exams as did classmates who were in direct view of them. This is why we hate

other people texting on their phones when we’re at the movies. It’s distracting even when we’re

not the ones doing the texting.

Multitasking is neither a good thing nor a bad thing……..

One thing that we’ve been thinking continuously about multitasking and it’s effects on our

productivity. There’s a fair bit of research that basically says that. The human brain just isn’t

terribly well optimized for doing more than one thing at the same time. Unfortunately, it’s often

not something that seems like much of a choice.

So many things have a “right now” urgency and seem to require immediate attention.

Additionally, most people report that they feel more productive at the time when we’re doing

several things at once. We’re interested in figuring this out for ourselves, with our own data.

We’re playing around with some different ways to look at RescueTime data to get a better handle on it. And we’re seeing some things that look pretty interesting.

We’re still trying to figure out how much are doing multitasking? Metric but what we have so far suggests that every person on our team is significantly more productive. When they focus more

on a single task, rather than trying to juggle. Its all depends upon us how we are going to manage the several things at once.

7 – Tips If Multitasking Become Necessary For You

1. Is Multitasking Necessary:

You’re an admin professional so you will always have a lot of work on your plate. Taking any

shortcuts to speed up your work definitely helps, but you need to first ask yourself if

multitasking is necessary. Will it help you to get more done in less time, without affecting the

quality of your work? Only attempt multi-tasking if it helps you to become more productive, not

less effective.

2. Set up a Multitask Plan and Goals:

Okay, so you’ve decided that you want to multitask your work in order to become more

productive. The first thing you need to do is set a ‘multitask’ work plan. Diving right into your

work without any plan or structure is a bad idea. Without any plan, you could easily lose focus

and not complete your work, which will just cause you more stress. Successful multi-tasking

needs a good plan. A good tip is to group tasks that are compatible with each other. From there

you can set your goals for each task, like ‘what do you want to achieve?’ and ‘when must your

tasks be completed by?’

3. Don’t lose Focus:

Multitasking only works properly if you keep your focus. Managing multiple tasks is demanding

and you can very easily lose track of them if you don’t manage everything properly. Along with

grouping compatible tasks together, it’s also a good idea to list each task by its level of urgency

or priority. Prioritizing tasks based on their urgency will help you to not ease some of the

pressure on your shoulders and most importantly keep your focus.

4. Set aside your Time for Intensive Tasks and Routine Tasks:

Some of your tasks are repetitive, day-to-day tasks and others are complex and high priority

tasks. Daily tasks are the easiest and least stressful of your responsibilities. These are the tasks

that you can easily multitask, as you can devote a certain time of the day to them. For example,

you could dedicate the first and last hour every day to getting through your emails and

completing basic admin.

Whilst your emails are your priority, you will also have enough time to get through your other

daily routine admin tasks so that you ‘kill two birds with one stone’. Intensive tasks and projects

are a different story. These tasks need a specific time allocation, but depending on their urgency

and demands, it’s wise to rather focus on them individually. Especially, if it’s an event or a

project you need to assist your boss with. Complex tasks need your full attention, so the time and

energy you put into them shouldn’t ever be compromised.

5. Multitasking is just like Juggling:

An effective way to multi-task is to work on one thing at a time but alternate between them.

Jugglers are the perfect example. Whilst they might have many objects in the air, they always

manipulate only one at a time. The easier and repetitive tasks that you do on a daily routine are

much easier to manipulate which means that you should be able to switch between each task with

ease. If you find yourself struggling to ‘juggle’ your tasks, you could set a timer or an alarm to

go off at certain time intervals to remind you to switch tasks.

6. Manage Work Distractions:

No one can plan for interruptions or an unexpected event. You also can’t predict how many

times your phone will ring, but we all have our days where things come up at the last minute that

need your urgent attention. The result, your perfect work plan for the day doesn’t quite go the

way you expected it to. First, stay calm. Getting yourself into a spin will just demotivate you.

Secondly, in your plan, you should set time constraints for different tasks, which should include

a contingency plan if there are interruptions in the day.

7. Use all Available Resources:

In the digital age of the internet and apps, administrative professionals now have several useful

resources at their disposal. Apps like Evernote, Dropbox, and Handle can easily help you with

setting task priorities, multitasking, and general time management at work. Even something as

simple as your Outlook calendar can help you tremendously with scheduling your tasks and

keeping you on your toes. Multitasking is all about improving your productivity, and technology

can help you to make your work more manageable.

How To Make a Decision?

Every problem has a solution you just need to make a good decision for that problem. Decision making is a tough situation for someone, some people are not good at decision making and they don’t have any idea about how to make decisions. So here I give you some tips about how to make good decisions. Check this out.

WHAT’S IN IT

How To Make Decisions Using Decision Cycle?

Decision cycle is steps of actions on a repeated basis, which helps you to make the best decision. There are lots of decision cycles available in the world for different kinds of fields. Every field uses different kinds of decision cycles. Means, a research basis decision cycle is not useful for making your personal life decisions or managerial decision cycle is not helpful to you to make decisions for doing any research.

So, for using the decision cycle first you need to understand which field is your or to understand which decision cycle is fit for your scenarios.

Some decision cycles examples

1. PDCA

PDCA stands for Plan-Do-Check-Act. You can use this technique for choosing big decisions in your life. You can also use this cycle for business decisions but you have to understand your problem first.

2. OODA

OODA stands for Observe-Orient-Decide-Act. This technique is mostly used by militants in war situations. This technique is developed by Air force retired Colonel John Boyd. He also uses this technique in aerial combat.

3. Herbert Simon model

The Herbert Simon model is also a decision-making model. This model is used by management; you can also use this technique for daily life problems.

How To Make Decisions Between Two Options?

People are always confused between two options. It is very difficult to choose one option between the two. But if you think deeply about both options then you can realise it’s not hard. Mostly in this situation, you are confused when both the choices are equally right for you. So in this situation, it is harder to make a choice.

So, how to choose between two options? In this situation, you have to accept the option which is favourable for you and reject the option which is unfavourable for you. Now you say everybody knows that favourable and which is unfavourable for you. So your choice should be based on what is your Goal Statement?

Just ask this question for you when you’re confused between two options, you will get your favourable option. Choosing between two options, identify which option is helping you to make a path for your Goal Statement.

Decision Tree

What is a Decision Tree?

A decision tree is a diagram, which looks like a tree used to determine a course of actions, every branch of the tree represents the possible situations. This also helps you make choices. A decision tree is very simple to understand and visualise. It shows what is going on. For making a decision tree you have to make a little effort for data preparation. It can handle both numerical and categorical data.

How to create a decision tree

Using an example now we understand how to make a decision tree.

Example of a decision tree

A new company is formed, which gives loans to the public, now they want to do marketing, but they don’t have any idea about their target audience. To find out the target audience of that company using a decision tree.

From the above diagram, we categorized our audience in ages below 20, 20-50 and 50+. So from the first branch, we understand, up to 20 age, only 1% of people are taking a loan. In the 20-50 age range, 40% of people take a loan and above the 50 age, only 5% of people take a loan. From this basis now we are targeting 20-50 age groups.

So, two parts happen again in 20-50 age people, which is married and unmarried. In this branch, we understand 55% of married people take most loans and only 15% of unmarried people take a loan.

There are also two categories happening in married people, that is which have kids and which one has not kidding. The 75% married and which have kids take a loan and only 25% married which don’t have kids take a loan.

So, from the above diagram, we understand our audience, which is 20-50 age people who are married and having kids.

How To Make Decisions For Business?

Business choices are always complicated for a manager to make perfect choices. There are always ups and downs in business and you have to tackle every situation in the proper way using the best choice. But, there are lots of techniques available in the market for business problems, you can also use those techniques. There are not any particular steps available in the world which can give you 100% result in decision making, but at least you have to use those steps in business just to understand the way of problem solutions.

Steps of business decisions

1. Understand your Goal or Vision statement

Every company or business has their own goals or vision. For making every choice, first, you have to understand your goals or vision and then take an important choice of business which can help you to reach our goals or your vision.

2. Gather useful information

After understanding your problem you have to collect all information about that problem which can help you to solve problems. You can also consider your team and collect information from those. This research technique takes a lot of time to collect information because this is the base of your problem solution.

3. Choose relevant options

After collecting all information you have to analyze the whole information and understand which information is helpful to you to make a choice. So you have to collect all options which helps you to solve a problem.

4. Make a decision

From those options, now you have to select the best option which can solve your problem. In this stage again you have to understand your goal or vision and then make a choice.

5. Action

After making a choice, apply them on problems.

How To Make Quick Decisions?

In this 21st century, everyone wants a quick result in their life. There is not any concept available which can help you to make quick choices. You can make quick choices about your daily problem like what to wear today? Which movie should I watch today?

But in other kinds of problems, you can make quick choices but you have to think about it and it takes time. So, how to make a quick choice.

For taking a quick choice you have to understand the best situation and worst situation of all options that you have. If you have two options then understand the best and worst situation of both options. If you are ready for both situations of one option then choose that option. And, if you are not ready for both scenarios or you are ready for good and not ready for bad situations then don’t accept it.

Let’s take an example

Should I join a corporate job or start a new business? This is a question, so let’s understand this problem.

So, if you choose yes, what is the best scenario of that option; you can live your whole life easier and what is the worst-case scenario of this; every day you have to work hard and enjoy your whole life on weekends. So, if you are ready for both situations then accept this option.

If you choose business then what is the best scenario of this option; if you start a business then you can become millionaire or billionaire. What is the worse scenario of this; your business model can fail. If you are ready for both scenarios then choose this.

Conclusion

Decision making is a very useful technique in our daily life and corporate life. There are lots of steps available to make a good choice. You have to understand which decision cycle is fit for your problem. Not every choice you make needs to be always right. Sometimes it is not helpful to you. Now in this situation, you have to learn from your mistakes and share your experience with others so they can not make that mistake.

Organizing ideas & Info into Common Themes

Many of us will get a lot of organizing ideas to execute a plan or to solve a problem. But, the common problem that everyone faces is organizing those ideas and the collected information into a common theme. Hence It’s not a bad thing to get too many ideas to solve a problem. Whenever we try to solve a brainstorming problem, we will get many ideas to solve or to overcome that.

Without a proper plan, we can’t execute any task and we can’t solve any problem. To organize ideas into a common theme, it takes a lot of time without a proper plan.

Hence a proper plan and perfect execution of a plan always make us succeed in the task of organizing.

There are many ways suggested by the experts, which were followed by our ancestors for many decades. Hence, those ideas can help us overcome the problem of organizing too many ideas and information into a common theme.

WHAT’S IN IT

METHOD 1: AFFINITY DIAGRAMS OR KJ METHOD

Affinity diagrams have been the most preferred method by many experts since the 1900s. This is also known as the KJ method. Hence, Affinity diagrams help in Organizing ideas more easily and make the path easier to develop and execute a plan.

ABOUT THE METHOD

Kawakita Jiro, a Japanese anthropologist developed Affinity diagrams. the KJ method was named after him. Usually, This method helps to synthesize the larger amount of data by finding relations between them. Hence, helps in organizing into a common theme.

USAGE

STEPS TO USE AFFINITY DIAGRAMS:

STEP 1: THINK ABOUT THE IDEAS

Organizing ideas by brainstorming. Think about the problem that you have and the reason for your planning. Hence, this makes you get the ideas inclining towards the solution of the problem. Don’t worry about the count of the ideas that you have been getting in this organizing idea task. Usually, Try to get the maximum information regarding the task or problem for which you are going to find the solution. This can help you get the right thoughts to find the solution and can help you eliminate the unnecessary thoughts and to get proper thoughts to plan a solution.

TIP

Try to note down immediately whenever you get thoughts in a particular or specific period. Because some precious thoughts can’t come to our minds every time. Hence, we have to note down and we have to utilize those thoughts immediately.

STEP 2: MAKE A STICKY NOTES

Irrespective of the count of the ideas, copy all your ideas into separate notes. Now, write each idea into each sticky note to paste on the wall or table in your room or office. Hence this can make your plan more efficiently and effectively.

TIP

Try to use different coloured papers for different thoughts. This can make you recognize easily and this method can work effectively in organizing ideas and information into common themes.

Be patient while making note of your thoughts. Give your complete dedication and determination while listing the ideas. Hence patience and perfection is the key to success.

TIP TO BE EFFECTIVE

While making notes, make sure that there will be no disturbance to you and try to complete all the tasks that you have to do before starting the making note of your ideas. Hence this will help you to make proper planning without any disturbance and for finding an effective solution.

STEP 3: FINDING CONNECTION BETWEEN IDEAS

After making sticky notes of Organizing ideas, try to find a link between the thoughts.

To find the link between the thoughts, the effective method is:

Now, all the ideas or thoughts were listed in smaller groups. Usually, You can make the plan easier now.

TIP

This is the most essential step in the whole procedure. Don’t miss link the wrong thoughts. Always try to be conscious and be attentive while making the thoughts separated into smaller groups. Your patience will be tested a lot here while Organizing ideas. Although Be patient till completion of the grouping. Usually, Don’t lose your patience anywhere. Hence, Use separate and different coloured papers for each grouping to avoid confusion.

STEP 4: MAKING SMALLER GROUPS INTO LARGER GROUPS

After listing the thoughts into smaller groups, merge the smaller groups which consist of similar thoughts and make larger groups by following the same procedure by following the same method which has been followed earlier in the previous steps of Organizing ideas.

Now, we will have a certain number of groups which are having similar kinds of thoughts.

TIP

Don’t merge the thoughts while Organizing ideas that were not similar or which were unique. This spoils the whole planning and makes you get failed in the planning and execution of the task. Try to do the planning alone. Because you may get disturbed or the people around you can become a disturbance to you and your work. Usually, This may reduce the perfection in the planning.

STEP 5: GIVE AN APPROPRIATE TITLE TO EACH GROUP

Name each group with an appropriate heading or title with at least 3 to 4 words. This may make it easy to recognize or identify each task and avoids confusion. Hence this can separate each larger group of thoughts or ideas from the other larger group. So, title each group with a three to the five-word description which makes you easy to recognize.

These titles or headings can be called in many ways. Usually, they will be called as Theme cards or Affinity cards or Header cards.

According to the situation, if more clarity is required in the planning, we can use more sub headers wherever necessary. Hence the super header also can be used whenever it is necessary to group the themes.

TIP

Use the keywords or the words which were related to the group to identify the group of thoughts easily. To be brief, use the words as a heading that were related to the ideas in the group. Use different colored papers to title the different groups. Hence this can make you identify each group easily and can show you the difference between each group.

It is preferred to use a separate colour for all the groups, separate colour for all the headers, separate colour for all the super headers and separate colour for all the subheaders.

STEP 6

Now, everything is clear. You have prepared all the list of ideas and information and organized them into common themes. Now, paste these sticky notes on your wall or table and execute your task. Your task will be completed successfully Organizing ideas or the plan will be executed successfully by this method.

In this way, we can organize our ideas and information into the common themes using the Affinity diagrams. We can organize too many ideas and information simply into common themes using the Affinity diagrams.

METHOD 2: MIND MAPPING OR TREE METHOD

This is also a method to organize information and ideas into a common theme. It is similar to Affinity diagrams. But, it is quite different from the Affinity diagrams.

STEP 1: LISTING THE THOUGHTS

This step is similar to the 1st step in the Affinity diagram method. Make a note of all the ideas and information that you get by storming your brain to make thoughts into common themes.

STEP 2: SEARCH KEY IDEAS

Search for the key ideas which have links with the most number of other ideas. This is the most confusing step in the tree method or mind mapping method. Try to follow this step sincerely to get perfection.

STEP 3: BUILD THE TREE

Now, you have the keywords. Those keywords have links to other ideas. So, the List the ideas like a flowchart to identify and to make the work easier. Now, there is a chain of ideas and information that were organized into common themes.

TIPS FOR TREE METHOD

Conclusion

Affinity diagrams are the great tools to analyze, synthesize, and organize the ideas and information into common themes. Affinity diagrams are most preferred when compared to the tree method.

Whenever you face problems in organizing ideas and information into common themes, these two methods can help you a lot.

FAQ’S

Can we organize ideas perfectly by following the Affinity diagrams method?
Yes, you can organize ideas perfectly by following the affinity diagram method. But, the planning must be clear and try to avoid confusion.

Which method is best for organizing ideas into common themes?
Affinity diagrams and Mind mapping are the two methods for organizing ideas into common themes. Most of the people prefer Affinity diagrams to organize ideas and information into common themes.

Is using sub-headers and super headers necessary?
Using a header is necessary to separate the unique group of thoughts. But, the usage of subheaders, super headers, etc. depends on the requirement.

Can we make larger groupings directly?
Yes. But, you will be a bit confused if you make larger groups directly. Traditionally, grouping the ideas into smaller ones, then, they will be grouped into larger ones is preferable.

Can we organize all types of ideas into common themes with Affinity diagrams?
Yes, we can organize ideas and information into common themes with affinity diagrams in all cases. For example, we can organize all the scientific ideas as well as we can organize project plans in the office too.

5 Stage Model Of Skill Acquisition

The process of Skill Acquisition isn’t always clear. It’s easy to google “learn to play chess” or “learn yoga” than to actually perform and learn it practically. What you need is an approach to keep you going once you get past the early stages of learning. It’s called the Dreyfus model. It can help you measure your performance while learning a skill. Stuart E. Dreyfus and Hubert L. Dreyfus developed this model.

WHAT’S IN IT

Five Stages of Skill Acquisition

The point of the Dreyfus model is that it’s a development model that explains how one develops a skill. Let’s go through the below-mentioned steps:

There are five levels of skill development. If we look at the vertical axis we could consider that as a degree of measuring skill. The horizontal axis is to do with relevant experience that is an experience that helps us develop greater skill in something.

Novice

This first level of skill acquisition is called the Novice level. To develop a sense of classification a relationship with rules let’s imagine a person who is a novice in an office context. The person has no experience of working in an office environment and just wants to know what’s expected of him on that job.

He has a relationship with the rules to start with everything. He learns his theory because he has got no practical experience to refer and he can’t exercise discretion. Experience hasn’t given him any sense of what’s more important. So he can’t prioritize. So the next thing that somebody asks him to do he’s likely to do it.

What does he see around him? he sees artefacts, he sees documents, reports, emails, etc. So he is very focused on his email inbox and marshalling and producing documents. He loves templates, it helps him produce good artefacts he thinks about.

Advanced Beginner

The second level is the level of the advanced beginner. At this level, the person is somewhat more experienced. Their conscious incompetence is high. The person has a relationship with the rules and the outputs. In other words, the delivery of what he is supposed to do. But he is got a very little appreciation of his context.

His experience isn’t broad enough yet him to understand that there are different kinds of contexts. Everything he experiences still has a kind of normal feel to it. He values practice and process. He’s becoming very process-oriented.

So sometimes he can become legalistic. Insisting that other people present work to him in the right way for him to continue the process. But still, he hasn’t learned how to prioritize from a great deal of experience still quite hard further.

Proficient

This level though is interesting, this is the level of proficient. Here the person has a relationship with the outcome. He understands what a result is beyond just delivering something and he’s making connections with that. The proficient is beginning to see a rich variety of context from his experiences.

He is also really thinking hard about what he can do to produce a better outcome. His danger is though that he is aware of his strengths. For example, he is beginning to make connections with his work and his passion. But he is less aware of his weaknesses. He is still thinking in a fairly limited systemic way.

He is aware of his involvement in an overall process. But here’s the thing he is now developing an ability to think outside of the process and observe himself. Sometimes to interrupt his mental narrative and be consciously self-aware of how he is feeling and thinking about a particular piece of work. This is a crucial learning point but it’s not the end of him developing his skill.

Expert

The next level is the level of expert. Here let’s take the example of Erica, a nurse because observing nurses have a high order skill. They are looking for unusual patterns in different contexts. Erica brings a perspective on certain things that she is focusing on or in the foreground.

She prioritizes them, she has got a much more systematic view of reality than the proficient has. Erica has a high degree of tolerance for volatility, uncertainty and some sense of complexity. As I have said they can respect the rules but they are prepared on occasions to break them for good reason. Erica has a high sense of flow. Now she understands and is aware when she is being productive and that systematic appreciation.

Master

The final level is the level of Master. Here we can take the persona of Mary. Mary is somebody who is got a high order skill, who is looking at the whole system. She has a relationship with vision.

If a skill we have been looking at were for example project management Mary would have been elevated to either program director or portfolio director. She is looking right across the organisation. She values context over abstraction. Mary is showing high awareness, high adaptation, intuitive grasp of situations.

She is got a tolerance for complexity and ambiguity. Mary can recognize and pick up when certain evidence when everybody out there is making one interpretation. She is asking herself well what if the opposite is true.

Conclusion

Now what we notice in this article is that in many organisations whatever the skill is they put most of their investment in learning and development in moving the novice to the advance beginner.

There are several reasons for this, its easy learning design. Because it’s about content less so from the advance beginner to the proficient. Because those require some design around practical implementation.

But what we observe is that there’s very little in the way of learning and development solutions to move people from the proficient to the expert. One of the things that happen is that in organisations people who have got the potential to become experts or masters never actually really rise above that. Because they see very few examples of that or people think that they are good enough and move them on to the next thing.

The ownership of learning and development shifts from the organisation owning the learning and development of the novice and advanced beginners to the experts and the masters owning their learning and development.

But there are a couple of general observations about the skill acquisition model. First is that we overvalue rules, knowledge and content in learning and development. We live in a rationalist age that does this constantly. It’s all about we know, It’s all about the stuff, very little about wisdom. So we undervalue emotional connection and practical experimentation.

FAQ’s

Why is skill acquisition better than education?
What is better? To do a job for a company just for a few cents of salary or to own a business and make people work for you. Obviously the latter one right! This is the difference in Skill acquisition and education.
Education will provide you with the knowledge through which you can manage to get a job with a decent salary whereas you can start your own business if you have great skills.

How can motivation affect skill acquisition?
Whenever a person is hungry, he/she desires to eat more. That means hunger and eating food is directly proportional to each other. Similarly, motivation and skill acquisition is directly proportional. The one who is highly motivated is more likely to acquire a skill. The more you are motivated, the less time you’ll take to conquer the skill.

What is the importance of skill acquisition?
When a person is highly skilled he not only creates self-employment but also creates a job for others.

VAK Learning Styles – Discover Your Learning Style

Imagine you’re studying for a test, and even after giving continuous efforts in studying you end up scoring a very low grade in the test. Although after all those studying you still got an average grade. Why?

The thing is there’s no one right way to study. One can easily learn through one style but others cannot. In other words, everybody learns differently. However, to make your learning more effective, It’s important to know which style suits you the best.

WHAT’S IN IT

What’s your Learning Style

Individual Learning Styles and Learning to Code | by Ricardo Garza | Medium

According to the VAK model, most people are more desirable to only one learning style. However, some people can learn through mixing all three styles. We all start as hands-on learners and choose a dominant style in our early elementary years.

It is also important to note that just because you lean towards one style, you can still learn using the other styles. Although it may be just a little harder and chances are you’ve already had to adapt to your coworkers, professors and even your family members style.

The three types of learners are visual learners, auditory learners and kinesthetic learners also known as the hands-on learners. Generally, visual learners learn through seeing. Auditory learners learn through listening whereas kinesthetic learn through moving, doing and touching.

Learning Style Overview

Visual	Auditory	Kinesthetic
See the teacher	Verbal lessons	Hands-on approach
Learn best from visual displays	Discussions	A hard time sitting still
Think in pictures	Interprets meaning by listening	Rather demonstrate than explain

Visual

You might be a visual learner if you like to think in pictures and often create mental images to retain information, If you prefer written directions for assignments or jobs and if you enjoy looking at maps, charts, pictures. Videos and even watching movies completing puzzles, reading and writing things are also things that you enjoy.

By all means, you might find yourself sketching, painting, constructing and fixing things if you like to sit in front of the classroom. It usually isn’t because you want to be the teacher’s pet, its because you want to see the teacher their nonverbal movements and you want to see any visual item.

Auditory

You might be an auditory learner if you think in words rather than in pictures. Also have highly developed auditory skills and are generally good at speaking and presenting. You also like verbal directions and you do learn best through verbal lectures discussions.

Talking through things and listening to what others have to say, you are also a good listener, a good writer and a good storyteller. Indeed you may find that you like to read aloud or listen to audiobooks. This way you can hear and then interpret the words.

Kinesthetic

You might be a kinesthetic or hands-on learner if learn best things by moving, doing or touching. Often express yourself through movements, and you do have a good sense of balance on hand-eye coordination.

You remember and process information by interacting with the world, with space and with the objects around you. You can get fidgety at times and you sometimes just can’t sit still. Hence most of the time you will find yourself experimenting and using your hands to create and build.

Tips for Learning Styles

You know the basics of the learning styles but here are some tips and tricks for each style.

Visual	Auditory	Kinesthetic
Use highlighters	Group study	Take breaks
Use graphics	Use Storytelling	Walk and memorize
Take notes	Use rhymes, tunes or mnemonics	Listen to music
Record lectures	Talk it out	Skim and the reread
Visualize information	Recite material	Make models

Visuals

The Power of Visual Communication | Lucidchart Blog

As a visual learner, you can use coloured highlighters to highlight the important information and it makes it visually appealing to you. You can draw graphics or mind maps to represent the information that you are learning.

You may read passages then close your eyes to visualize the information you just read. Sometimes if you are memorizing you can memorize the steps of the procedure by picturing the steps in chronological order in your mind. This helps you recall the information visually. When you are taking a test or doing the procedure.

Auditory

As an auditory learner, You enjoy study groups and retain information from them. You like to recite information over and over because it helps you learn. You also like to use storytelling to get your point across to people in your personal and even in your professional life. Using rhymes or tunes and mnemonic devices help you recall larger pieces of information.

Do you remember the learning the mnemonic VIBGYOR? It was probably back in elementary school, so there might be a chance you forgot it but just in case you did, it is the colours of the rainbow- violet indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red.

Kinesthetic

As a kinesthetic learner, you need to be moving, touching and doing. Listening to music while working and studying helps you remember and learn. Taking breaks, getting up and moving around helps you use your extra energy, so you easily return to the task at hand.

When reading you can skim the reading material and then reread it later for better comprehension. You can walk and talk out loud as you read to help memorize information

Learning Strategies for Instructors

Visual

As an instructor, you can add visual cues throughout your lectures that include pictures, graphs and videos. You can also use coloured dry erase markers or smartboard pens or even chalk if you still have a chalkboard to make the content visually appealing.

When it comes time to assign a task or assignment you can use visual cues along with auditory directions. This can be simple as handing out a printed copy of the assignment and reviewing it with the class.

Auditory

As an instructor, it can help your auditory learners by engaging in group discussions. Into classroom time you can also give oral instructions for tasks and assignment. It also helps if you show videos that compliment the text or the material you just lectured onto.

Kinesthetic

For your kinesthetic learner, you can include hands-n activities in your classroom. You also need to make sure you vary the instructional methods to keep them interested in less fidgety. Adding short breaks in between instruction also helps keep them on task. You can also go on field trips where the content can be enhanced with activity visuals and movement.

Conclusion

Learning style is the way a person prefers to learn also known as learning preferences. There is no right or wrong learning style. It deals with how the brain works and stores information effectively. So learning styles is defined as various approaches of taking in, organizing and processing stimuli or information.

You can check out your learning style by giving a simple learning style test available on various websites. You can also observe your past experiences in learning. For most of the people these methods will work best, it’s also possible for a combination of different styles to be effective.

FAQ’s

Who developed Learning styles?

Initially, the VAK model of learning was designed by Walter Barke Barbe. Which was later more improved by Neil Fleming.

Can learning style change over time?

It completely depends on the preferences of any individual. A learning style will be most effective if a person thinks it to be a suitable one. After a certain period of time, if an individual thinks that a particular style is not working he/she can switch to a different style or even mix the previous style with others.

Why does the learning style matter?

It does matter because once you come to know about your preferences, you’ll skip the unnecessary work to learn anything. Suppose you are an auditory learner, so the most effective thing to understand the concept will be conducting group discussions. Using a hands-on approach and doing an experiment will be an overburdened work for you. This not saves your time but also your energy, which you can invest in other things to learn.

Learning Style v/s multiple intelligence.

According to Howard Gardner, there’s not just one intelligence, which most of the people misconceives about, in fact, there are eight types of intelligence based on the individual personality and their learning style.

Herrmann’s Whole Brain Model – Maximizing Your Thinking Power

With a world full of different people, we all have different processes of thinking. Since we all have different thinking powers, it becomes very difficult to understand the mindset of other people from your point of view.

But in the corporate world, the success of any company depends mostly on the integrity of its employees. How well they coordinate with team members as well as how much they are capable of understanding the mindset of their colleagues.

So in such a case what should a company do? Should they hire like-minded candidates? But wait, nobody in this world is like-minded. However, we do have other ways to increase the potential and productivity of the employees and one of them is Herrmann’s whole brain model.

WHAT’S IN IT

What is the Whole Brain Model?

By what method can you, your group or your association adapt to society’s persistent change in complex nature and stay effective and successful. The key is to consider your thinking. Thinking is your brain (brain research) process of making sense of the world but ways of thinking are different for each of us, meaning we all process information differently.

How frequently have you wondered why an untidy work area makes somebody insane, while others feel aroused by it. Why is it that some people understand your point quickly while others never seem to comprehend? Suppose you had a straightforward method to decode others without exhausting yourself. Thankfully there is a way, it’s called the whole brain thinking(brain research).

Whole-brain thinking gives a guide to your reasoning excursion. Understanding your learning will assist you with being increasingly successful at work and help you to team up better with others.

Origin of this Model

You see a circle divided into four quadrants. Each quadrant represents a thinking style. This model was developed by Ned Herrmann helps us see our differences. Some of us have a thinking style that is conceptual and analytical, while others go with the details. Some of us are exceptionally sensitive to the emotional needs while some of us prefer to deal with the big picture and long term planning.

Why is it important to understand the thinking style? Ned Herrmann tells a very funny story about an impatient manager in one of his seminars who blurted out- “What does the brain have to do with management?” to this Ned replied- “It has everything to do with managing.”

Ned Herrmann developed a measuring tool called HBDI. It starts with the left and right brain theories that were developed during the ’70s supplemented by the Triune brain theory that represents the physiology of the brain. By combining these two models Ned developed a four-quadrant metaphoric model that can be quantified in the form of a profile.

Ned Herrmann

Ned developed the whole-brain concept and created the instrument HBDI. According to him, this instrument does not tell you what you think but it’s certainly about the way you think. It’s about what is your focus areas while thinking, which varies from individual to individual.

He was the first person who pioneered the study of the brain in terms of its application in the field of business which was particularly to solve a business issue and the issue was that Ned was in charge of the management development section of General Electric. He main job was to turn managers more creative. Now by more creative they meant they wanted their engineers to be more agile and flexible in the way they thought, in the way they managed, in the way they solved problems and so forth and for doing this Ned developed the Whole-brain model.

Ned also wrote two books which are worth a read- The creative brain was his first widely acclaimed book. This traces the scientific and historic roots of the innovative work he did in developing the whole-brain approach. The second book came out in 1995 named The whole brain

The business book which specifically looked at the application of the whole brain model and the whole brain thinking to organizations to individuals and teams.

HBDI

Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument provides four quadrants each one of which represents a specialized cluster of mental activities. Accordingly, it is a psychometric assessment that tells you about how your brain works. Thereupon many Fortune 100 companies use this tool regularly.

By understanding how the HBDI works you can better understand how you and others prefer to think, learn and communicate. Ned created the HBDI while working at General Electric to help engineers become more creative, agile and flexible.

You’ve probably heard about the left and the right brain ways of thinking. Left is generally perceived as more analytical, logical and structured while the right brain is more creative and free-flowing. Well based on this there are at least four significant mental processing centres of the brain- the left cerebral hemisphere and the right cerebral hemisphere. As well as the left limbic system and the right limbic system.

Herrmann refers to this as A in blue, B in green, C in red and D in yellow respectively as the four different types of quadrant were referred to as we learn about the HBDI. We use multiple areas of the brain to process information, this is called multi dominant. Of course, we use all the quadrants of the brain when we think but we tend to prefer certain ways of thinking during certain contexts.

Our preferences are the filters for everything we hear and see. The important thing is to remember that the way we prefer to see and hear things may not be the way others prefer to hear and see things.

Importance of this Model

The moment you have been waiting for your HBDI results, your HBDI provides numeric scores for each quadrant. It’s important to remember that there are no right or wrong results with the HBDI. No result is better than the other after all everyone scores total is the same number. But it’s about what we all uniquely bring and what we do about those scores that makes all the difference.

You might get a result like this after your HBDI test. This means your brain works more like a technical. Most profiles have two to three dominant ways of thinking. Here, in this case, the dominant way of thinking is analytical and technical. Some people are whole-brained means that they have all the four ways of dominant thinking.

You might expect a CEO to be a whole-brained but when combined teams and couples also become whole-brained. This is an important thing to be aware of because in committees, boards, teams and families we do become whole-brained as a group. So our communications also need to be whole-brained and represent this diverse way of thinking. However, with broad diverse thinking better ideas will result and all the bases will be covered.

Conclusion

Obtaining a collective view of your team scores is a good way to evaluate what each team member uniquely brings and if there’s opportunity to fill any gaps. A whole-brained group addresses the facts, forms, feelings and futures.

HBDI Quadrants:

Facts What
Forms How, When, Where
Feelings Who
Futures Why

In review, the HBDI of the whole brain model is unlike any other test in its a business application and its the ability to engage with others. It answers the question- How does my thinking impact the interactions with others!

FAQ’s

What does the blue quadrant refer to in HBDI?
The blue quadrant is the A or the upper left quadrant of the model. It refers to logical, analytical, fact-based and quantitative ways of thinking.

What does the green quadrant refer to?
The green quadrant is the B or the lower left quadrant of the model. It refers to organized, sequential, planned and detailed ways of thinking.

What does the red quadrant refer to?
The red quadrant is the C or the lower right quadrant of the model. It refers to interpersonal, feeling-based, kinesthetic and emotional ways of thinking.

What does the yellow quadrant refer to?
The yellow quadrant is the D or the upper right quadrant of the model. The yellow quadrant thinkers have a natural holistic, intuitive, integrating and synthesizing side. When people operate from this way of thinking they naturally have a high preference towards exploring, imagining and envisioning the future.
