Disagreements happen.  You can't always get your way.  Everyone has an opinion.  There are two sides to every argument.  When you're dealing with family or friends, you expect to have differences of opinion.  Perhaps you are willing to fight for your views and what's important to you.  And often, because of the personal relationships you have, you find a way to work things out.

I'm having a fabulous time on my tour promoting my new book, Use Your Head To Get Your Foot in the Door: Job Search Secrets No One Else Will Tell You.  I've been meeting folks with so many stories that I could write another book on the challenges of today's job market.

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.

Is this a Myth or is this a Fact - Does one really need a good Boss or a Mentor - Or is it just the LUCK Factor that plays the role in this - How much of influence or help does the Mentor or a Good Boss have on You - Will it Help in developing a Positive You or would it Stunt Your Growth - Would this actually be a motivating factor or otherwise - Would this lead to complacency - Many such questions have been cropping up in my mind from the time I began my career --- and I am yet to find the Right Answer.

Do you suffer from "Butterfly-itis" at the very mention of networking at business functions?  If you answered yes, you are not alone!  Many business people and entrepreneurs get a bit uncomfortable when it comes right down to walking up to someone and starting a conversation.

Found this very interesting and relevant to today article on "how to increase focus at work" by Ms Saumya Bhattacharya. Modern-day offices are demanding places. Employees are required to multi-task all the time, work long hours to meet deadlines and steep targets. In short, they are required to perform in an environment of constant pressure and competition. Little surprise then that many people often find it difficult to have a sustained attention span and complain of fatigue and confusion.
