Abilities

The Thought

What is the ability, and what is the need to enhance it?

Most often than not, you will face a problem of not being able to deliever the results as expected. Most often the problem will be with the definition of expected results. But whats so common to see is employees rushing in to job rather than defining it.
Try giving a new employee, heading a project. The way he/she plans and fine tune things, will tell you more about them than an interview. Ask them to solves real Business problems.
Yes, 99 will fail in this test, but one , The 1 will pass.
Thats the person you wish to have in your team. Thats the guy who will get the most reward.

Doing a job well, defines your execution, but planning a job well, and knowing the delievery standards,
helps you fine tune your plan, eventually helping you grow.

Most often you will face with hard decisions and tough calls from work life.
Things will never move the way you want them to, every day cannot be a great day. Let's face it.
But every day can be a great day to learn a new thing. To work on New aspects of your self growth.
But most often we get into the nitty gritties of not able to see the opportunity, but to remember the bash we got from the bosses.

But only those who realize their abilities, make use of such time as an opportunity to upgrade themselves.
Remember, every one has less time, the quicker and the finer recieves the cake, and

Ability might not give you the first break, but it will surely take you higher.

The fight of Time

The Thought

How often are you charged with not being able to complete all the work and assignment given to you.What do you do if you have to say, "Sir, I was not able to do". Whats the better way to answer.

Oki. Now this post is not about giving you a trick about how to avoid and take shortcuts in projects.
This post will help you prioritize better and develop the ability to say "NO", because, when you say
"No" to unimportant things, you say "YES" to important ones.
The world moves in a frenzy, and before you realize, you will have more tasks to do, and less time to complete it. The better you get at doing the work, the more you are desired in the organization, and then lesser time you get to satisfy the wants of each stake holders.
People start cribing, creating trouble for you, but you need to go on performing. It's these times when you have to say "NO".
So the Big question, When I say "NO", will my boss take it positively or will put it as a remark
"He was not been able to perform". Whats the solution to it?

Well, the solution is simple.

Next time take two tasks at hand, One which you can do, and the other you can't finish in the deadline alloted. Yes, you have to be visionary for this.
Put your best efforts in both the task, but ensure to complete atleast one, on time, and with the slightly higher standard than expected. If you can do so, you now stand on an opportunity of gold. What is left now is , ability to convey the message correctly across.

Starting your proposal as,
"I was given two task, this and this, but I was not able to do ONE", will never give you advantage".
Instead.
First go on elaborating, the completed task. Take your time, and explain the various intricacies of the task.Your objective must be to recieve a positive "YES", or an expression of "Well done" from your boss.
Once you get that, this is the time.
Use minimum amount of words to tell, why you could not compelte the Task 2, and how you plan to complete it with the new deadline.

You will be amazed by the acknowledgement, that, even your boss is logical, and understands your problems.
remember, the Boss is not the problem, the problem is your communication.
Enjoy.
