In the State of the Union address, President Obama declared our national economic agenda "begins with jobs." So does mine. I'm dedicating myself to a 30-day, nationwide tour to launch my newest book Use Your Head to Get Your Foot in the Door: Job Search Secrets No One Else Will Tell You. Use Your Head is loaded with silver bullets. I even enlisted the help of readers of this column. They delivered great tips ranging from networking-your-way-to-work to tapping multi-skills for a totally new career.

In Greek mythology, Pandora opened her fabled box and let out all evils except for hope, which Greeks considered to be as dangerous as the world's other evils. Soon they discovered that without hope to offset their troubles, humanity was filled with despair. So Pandora let out hope as well. In the myth, hope was more potent than any of the other major evils.

Here is a must read blog of Ms Judy Umlas which is simply so inspiring... effectively  tells you about, "The Power of Acknowledgement"........How many of us have made this a part of our everyday life ? A genuine acknowledgement goes a long way in healthy relationships, be it at home, among friends, at work or just about any place.

“Acknowledgment is an innate human ability, to the point where it’s not really considered by people, and as a result is often not properly developed. It is often overlooked because of the reasons you describe in your book - fear, embarrassment, vulnerability, etc., yet it is something so simple and yet fundamental. Everyone can benefit from this. I feel like a filter has been pulled back from my eyes.” Juliun Brabon

If you are a Bangalorean and have been living away from this city for sometime (say since 5 years) and if you are planning to visit, you are in for a shock. Yes, it is no more the old charming cool Bangalore; it is undergoing a transformation. Rather complete. It is not Bangalore now but Bengaluru, to begin with. The city is populated with IT guys and they will understand better if you say, this is Bangalore version 2.0

On a flight, when your plane takes off, the pilot tells all the passengers to stay in their seats with their seatbelts buckled. In many cases, the pilot will say, “We expect a certain amount of turbulence for the first part of the flight, so please stay buckled up.” When you start any new business or job, you will experience turbulence as well.
