Blind Faith. Are You Prepared for the Leadership?

Managers and leaders are often holding back by their lack of skills and proper management. Some of them have tools to do their work but they lack skills. There are some used their power in a wrong manner to do the job, that ends up in a serious way. Such poor management skills deflate employee morale, cause stress and sometimes it results in serious health and other issues. Such handicap managers and leaders should be removed from the process just to run the process and business in an effective way.

Let's have a glance at the top most bad management and managers impact.

                                                      1. Skepticism  

Managers and leaders who are poor in the communications often create confusion to their workers. There are some simply not to be skilled at giving directions. There are many positions filled with such leaders and managers in big organizations. They are leading their people without any direction and goals and in a long run such teams end up with nothing. The ultimate result is very serious as so many skilled team members loose their career and faith in the management. The organization also suffers from serious losses. There are such instances comes in a picture very late, such things needs to be taken care at the very beginning.


2. Work Environment

Across the globe, 40 percent people left the jobs because of their managers and leaders poor work management skills. Team members putting all their efforts to do the best for the team and at the end the poor management of their leaders ends with no result. The work environment is more important than the pay level.There are instances where unskilled manager blames their team members at the end of the poor performance and to find a way out of their bad management skills.


                                                       3.  Productivity and Cost

The team with poor leaders are less productive and more costly in terms of organization budget. There are less energetic people find in such teams because they do not want to spend quality time for poor management which leads them nowhere. All such behaviors of people cost to the organization at a very big level and that is because of one wrong person in the system.  


Such issues and topic can be debated for an indefinite time. The only thing matters are the result at the end. Organisation should conduct some studies time to time just to remove unskilled leaders and managers from the process and appoint someone who can lead the way through all difficulties by taking their team with them.

I Used to Be

It took long to decide from where to begin while writing this blog. This blog is dedicated to all my friends. We met so many people during our school, college and post graduation time. Some of them stay with us for a reason, and some of them leave when time comes. Someone has to leave because of the circumstances. The one left behind are the friends we need in life to make it good and happy.

They are the one we can share everything and always expect help whenever we stuck somewhere. They are the one we don't have to hide anything, and they know best about us, in fact, what our parents and boyfriend/girlfriend know. We can call them in any circumstances; they readily help and made every difficult situation so easy. They make you laugh in your though time.

This make life happier and so easy to live. This will remain for a long period in our lives and then the stage comes where we have to sacrifice this happiness too. We are burdened with responsibilities. We get busy in building our lives and started leaving for ourselves and for our loved ones. We have to take care of our parents and wife.

Now most of our time spent in building our life, earning good money to survive and having our own apartment to live.Once we get all these we spent all our time to maintain all. Some of us are very luck that they don't have to bother about all these but we all are not that lucky enough and need to build it at our own.

During this time, we all miss what I Used to be. There were lots of things to be take care and burdened with responsibility, but it never felt too difficult because friends were together to make it happen or rather make it simple. Friends are always good at convincing. They will convince you for something, which is impossible at that moment and make you sacrifice in a way that you don't even realize it.

Life seems difficult when they all are not around. Now sacrifice made because we have other responsibilities to take care. We have to secure our future and always ready for the consequences come in our way. We live in fear, forgot to laugh from the bottom of our heart.

This situation came in everyone's life as someday we all have to move on in our life and leave all these moments and friends behind. We have to live it at our own and built it. Friends are always there to help. Sometimes they stay so far that it's not possible to reach or often circumstances are not allowed them to reach.

They are still there knowing everything. They want to help, but it's limited. They want to be with you, but time is running out. They want to laugh out loud, but it's impossible Now we laugh revising old memories, but we are not making new memories. It's impossible to live that life like we used to live and enjoying every moment we used to enjoy. It's impossible to take a risk at friends' silly mistakes and gets over with it being whatsoever come in the way. 

The time passed will never come to back so live every moments at fullest and make some good memories for future. Friends are always lives in memories and make you smile in every circumstance. All these memories are cured for our future when we all miss what we used to be or rather what I used to be.   

4 Ways

In lives, many people struggle with a lot many things. We live in the world where there are so many different people around. You listen to them talking, crying and expression emotions. Apart from all these, some people are too much silence in their lives. In digital era it is very much possible that you or your loved ones don't find to motivate, appreciate in your daily life.

1. Create a Dialogue with yourself :  This will help in decision making. You will be able to hear yourself what you think before taking decision. It will help you meet your needs and others expectations.It is not easy to make decision when there are so many choices to certain things. You, yourself can decide what is relevant and best for you. Talk in that way with yourself that will help you in meeting your needs.


2. Before Setting up Something :  In lives, you will be alone when it comes to achieve something. You have choose to be something and different from others. No one else is standing with you at that moment. You are your only best friend and things around you. You can speak to your self before your first date, Competition, Personal interviews. Make believe yourself that you will remember to listen, you have all the skills and you deserve it.

3. Support Yourself : You know who you are, when you need compliments and appreciations on your small and big achievements. If you are expecting from others then you will be end up with nothing. Why don't you do it yourself. Hey sweetie-pie or Hey Big Man you have done awesome. Talk and support yourself at every level and keep motivate your self. Once you accomplished with some task and goal you have set give compliments and gifts to yourself because you deserve it.

4. Cure Yourself : You are surrounded with positive and negative energy. When you wanted to start something these both will start impacting. You will start spending a lot of time in thinking over and over again. You will be in depression which leads to distraction. Cure yourself here by talking to yourself. Think less and be confident.
