Now the question is what is the story and what are the ideas behind it, every element have many different thoughts and your ideas will be based on one or more of the available thoughts, these ideas are based on the story which is in progress inside your mind.Ideas can and always are good, bad, successful, useless etc. The result of any idea will be based on your initial thoughts and its execution. In my views ideas can deliver the desired result only if well executed which means if the idea is successful but its execution is weak then result of this execution is not as expected and sometime opposite, another factor to a successful execution is experience of the executor/s.

The idea behind this article on idea was to understand what an idea is and where the ideas come from, why someone has good ideas which can turn into millions and the other have million of ideas which are always good and good always. Well I think it’s the execution and another factor LUCK plays a good role behind it… Luck – How true is this?

A survey reported that professionals who regularly changed their jobs are
more confident and financially secure than their counterparts. To find out
the truth we decided to have a conversation with some of our friends. We
began with some professionals who had changed their jobs a year ago.

This is what one had to say:

‘I started my career in a company and worked in the same company for 10
years. During this period I developed very good relations with my seniors,
HoD and also with admin dept. This created a sense of security in my mind
and I started loving my company. During this period I came across many job
opportunities from other companies and also from foreign lands. But the
sense of security was so deep rooted in my mind that I never bothered to
even attend a walk-in-interview. Forget about thinking of going abroad. I
watched many of my colleagues resign and join other companies on a higher
salary and a higher position. Some even went abroad and are settled there.

Meanwhile I also saw some young engineers almost 5 years junior to me joined
my company with same pay as what I was earning. It was then I was disturbed
and started looking for alternatives. I had good relations with my HOD and
also with administration dept so I decided to put up my case against this
‘injustice’. Everybody showed sympathy to me but nobody took any action, all
that they would say were ‘we will revise your scale in the next appraisal’.
I had faith in my company so I waited for the appraisal and to my shock I
was given only an average increment the same was given to the new chaps too.
The same story repeated the following year. It was then I decided to quit.

But leaving was not so easy. I had many of sleepless nights before I
actually resigned. I had built a shell of ‘sense of security’ around me and
it was very difficult to break. Worse I had lost confidence that I would be
able to adjust and perform in a different environment. But later I found out
it is not so difficult to get adjusted to the new environment. I am happy
now that I earn better and have a good position.’

This is just an example. Many professionals we talked to had a similar
experience.

WE CONCLUDE THAT WORKING IN ANY COMPANY FOR MORE THAN 7 YEARS HAVE FOLLOWING
DISADVANTAGES:

1. You are taken for granted by the company.

2. You get used to working in an environment which is unique to that
company this makes you less confident for taking up new opportunities.

3. Personal growth is hampered as there is very little new to learn
after 5-7 years.

4. You become complacent reducing your own market value.

5. The only benefit it offers is so called ‘security’ (And that too is
imaginary)

HERE ARE SOME BENEFITS OF CHANGING THE JOB REGULARLY:

1. You join the company satisfied with your needs ( pay and position )
and on your own terms.

2. Work in a different environment and learn to negotiate different
problems and situations.

3. Often you get a chance to attend a new course/seminar thereby
increasing your professional knowledge.

4. You are always conscious about your performance keeping your market
value intact.

The professional companies do not operate on emotions. They are least
bothered about your loyalty all they want is performance. You won’t be
awarded anything extraordinary for your loyalty. It is always performance
that counts. If you are in a company serving for too long then the chances
are you not one of the best performers because of the inevitable
complacency.

Also such people presented with an opportunity of lifetime are incapable to
grab it. It is impossible for these people to break their shell of
‘security’ and grab the new opportunity. The situation is worse for the
people who have worked for more than 15 years in only one company. They
can’t even dream of quitting their job – it is like fish out of water.

30 second Speech by Bryan Dyson (CEO of Coca Cola)

“Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some
five balls in the air. You name them – Work, Family, Health, Friends and
Spirit and you’re keeping all of these in the Air.

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you
drop it, it will bounce back.

But the other four Balls – Family, Health, Friends and
Spirit – are made of glass. If you drop one of these; they
will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even
shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand
that and strive for it.”

WORK EFFICIENTLY DURING OFFICE HOURS AND
LEAVE ON TIME. GIVE THE REQUIRED TIME TO YOUR FAMILY,
FRIENDS & HAVE PROPER REST.

Here are 15 brain boosting activities:

1. Play games that challenge and stimulate your mind. These include:

* Picture Puzzles
* Strategy Games
* Crossword Puzzles
* Card Games
* Deduction Games (such as Clue)
* Visualization Puzzles
* Optical Illusions

2. Reading stimulates the brain as it activates your imagination. Reading also helps with memory retention and problem solving, especially if you’re reading a mystery. Also, self-help books stimulate your brain by helping you to think for yourself, as well as find solutions in your mind.

3. Exercising helps circulate blood that carries oxygen to your brain. Over the long-term, exercise is proven to increase brainpower and even create new neurons.

4. Stimulate your brain with meditation. Meditation has been shown to increase your IQ, relieve stress, and promote a higher level of brain functioning. Meditation also stimulates the prefrontal cortex of the brain, the area of the brain responsible for advanced thinking, ability and performance.

5. Deep breathing helps deliver oxygen to your brain. Oxygen helps you be more alert and awake. As little as 10 to 15 minutes of deep breathing daily can increase brain functionality.

6. Taking fish oil supplements is literally like membrane material for the brain.. The two primary components in fish oil, DHA and EPA, strengthen the emotional center of the brain and boost focus.

7. Studies have proven that listening to music strengthens the right hemisphere of the brain and actually changes the structure of it. Also, people who listen to music are shown to be more emotionally intelligent than those who don’t.

8. Writing improves memory and thought expression. Writing articles, blogs, or journal entries stimulates thought processes, which also enhances brain function.

9. Sleep clears out brain clutter and reduces brain fog. When you don’t get enough sleep at night, your memory and normal brain function suffers.

10. Painting is shown to be an effective brain booster in that it sparks the creativity within you. Even if you’ve never tried painting before, give it a shot. You’ll find that you feel more creative and may actually enjoy it.

11. Starting the day out with a good breakfast has been proven to supply energy to the brain and body for the whole day. When you skip breakfast, you’re missing out on a powerful edge, both physically and mentally.

12. Walking allows you to clear your mind and thoughts. Not only is it good exercise for your body, walking gives your brain a chance to wander freely, clearing it of any troublesome thoughts.

13. Drink a serving of pure fruit juice. Fruit juice contains nutrients that revitalize and refresh the brain. Juices to drink are pomegranate, blueberry, and cranberry as they deliver more focus and energy.

14. Students who drink some caffeine before an exam typically have higher scores than those who don’t. This is because caffeine stimulates activity in the brain, which produces better focus and thinking ability. Don’t overdo it though!

15. Draw a picture. Like painting, drawing stimulates the creative side of your brain. So get out some colored pencils and start boosting your brainpower.

Decisions are at many times very criticals and tough to take, a through analysis is required before taking any critical decision as this will change the  position of an individual or the organization along the time.

Below is the list of questions (I found over the net)  which can help you analyze the situation and ensure you have taken the right decision.
