You Can’t Get Rich on a Salary!

You Can’t Get Rich on a Salary!
You will never make millions from your job!!! so forget that dream of ever living in Runda with your salary.

Sad, but true… we were raised and conditioned to study hard, get good grades, find a good and stable job. But oooppps!! they forgot to tell you something or they might have forgotten to ask you what you’re dreams are.Because, if you have a big dream, being in a job won’t suffice.

To make millions from your salary? I don’t think so ‘coz i haven’t heard of anyone who became rich from employment… anyone? I’m not talking here about people who are making dishonest gains or illegal deals from their offices.

What Can You Do on a Salary?
Just because you work for a paycheck doesn’t mean you can’t take control of your financial future. In fact, if every salaried employee’s financial destiny were predetermined, there would be scant use for financial advice!

Working for a paycheck, you can control how that paycheck grows by:
* Proving value to your employer,
* negotiating your compensation,
* investing in yourself (via training and education), and
* managing your career track.

You are invited for an interview...What next?....Prepare for the worst

You are invited for an interview...What next?....Prepare for the worst
Job application can be a daunting task and once you get lucky to receive a call from a prospective employer inviting you for an interview, a lot goes through your mind but I can bet one of them is the questions that you expect. The common ones possibly that you have googled will be, ‘can you tell us about yourself’, ‘what are your strongest points and weaknesses’ and all those questions that you probably have mastered and memorised structured answers. Assume a situation where you have been called for an interview in a hotel.

A friend of mine was called by PricewaterhouseCoopers for a partner’s interview at Fairview Hotel near the Israel embassy. The first thought that went through his mind was that these were conmen trying to swindle his hard earned pennies from the KRA where he was employed then. Long story short, he got the job but after a very finger biting interview. The worst that can happen is when an interview is being carried out while having lunch, at an opportune moment the interviewer throws a question at you when you have had a big bite of that steak, they can monitor your eating habits (are you taking a lot of food or are you pretending to eat a small portion). The topic for lunch should be for another day.

Let us go back to the questions that you do not anticipate in an interview. Many people will not be ready to answer a question on personal life or personal tastes and that is what a keen interviewee should expect. Just imagine the following questions:

1.    Who is your political role model?
2.    If you were to have lunch with a prominent personality, who will it be?
3.    Were you an animal, which one would you be?
4.    How beautiful is your girlfriend or boyfriend (If you are in sales and marketing expect this)?
5.    What do your parents think of your career choice?
6.    Sell me that bag. A good question for sales and marketing jobs.

These questions can be used to

1.    To get you off-guard.
2.    May help you to relax.
3.    To be creative not giving structured answers.
4.    Interviewers to see if you have a sense of humour.
5.    How fast can you think?
Be careful because the kind of answers you give will demonstrate what kind of personality that you have. At this point you should demonstrate your confidence, agility, dynamism and accuracy. Don’t bubble with an answer, stand by your answer because you do not want to stagger and seem incompetent.

Now, I will spend some time to share with you tips which can help in curbing your failure chances when these kind of questions are thrown at you:

For The New Boss, Reasons Why Your Staff Hate You.

For The New Boss, Reasons Why Your Staff Hate You.
Being the boss comes with some great perks- a better bank account, corporate benefits, and a fancier title — but why, before you even hold your first meeting, do you get the sense your employees hate you?

Unfortunately, more power comes with more problems. Here are the top 10 reasons your employees hate you before you even settle into your office:

1. Someone else had aspirations for your job, didn’t get it, and concluded that the selection process had serious flaws.

2. Blame MUST fall on someone, and, because you’re the biggest beneficiary of the company, you are the biggest target.

3. Your style of leadership or rumored future plans could be the problem. Even if you made NO indication of any future plans, rest assured the rumor mill is alive and well.

4. Someone in the company knows you from another company situation or from within the company, and got to know you during your climb up the ladder. His or her memories of you are more like nightmares.

5. There are concerns you will bring in a new team and replace current management, which could involve new hires or people from your old company.

6. Your real or rumored lifestyle may offend certain people in the company.

7. You seem so different from their beloved previous leader that you can’t be any good.

20 Truths On Jobs And Careers

20 Truths On Jobs And Careers
This post was inspired by a close friend of mine recently fired. She saw it coming but refused to accept reality. She should have left earlier but that’s life. I know it’s sometimes hard to hear these things but, in the end, they make you stronger.

1. Almost everyone starts at the bottom. Regardless of what you think you deserve, you probably will to.

2. There are no “right” answers for finding career fulfillment. Every path is different; every destination unique.

3. It’s not enough to be good at what you do. Talent and skill will only take you so far.

4. Work is not separate from the rest of your life. Compartmentalization is a myth.

5. Professional growth requires discomfort.

6. If you’re unhappy with your career, it’s up to you to change it. No one else controls your situation.

7. Almost every job has a tradeoff. You’ll probably never get everything you want in one place.

8. Achieving long-term career goals requires sustained effort and deliberate action. It’s no accident or coincidence.

9. Your career is about YOU.
