AFTER WORK, IS WHAT DETERMINES YOUR FUTURE! SPEND ONE HOUR PER DAY DOING THESE 5 THINGS AND YOUR LIFE WILL CHANGE FOREVER!

After work, is what determines your future! Spend one hour per day doing these 5 things and your life will change forever!

You finish work at 6 pm, go to bed at 12 midnight.

Within these six hours, how do you spend them?

Watching TV?

In fact, the activities you do between 6 am and 12 midnight,

the importance of it is beyond your imagination.

Too many people believe that,

your career is determined by the 8 hours of hard work and effort you put at work,

and your future and career progression depend on the boss and the company.

But the reality is that for most people, this thing, you are on your own…..

 

Read on…

 

“Cultivation”, it’s forever dependent by yourself.

If you found yourself not progressing in life,

you cannot blame and put the responsibility on your company for not grooming you.

 

1. What you do every night is important

My major in college was marketing, but I expect to become a designer.

So I practiced day and night,

picking up some freelance work to improve my design skills.

It took me a long time.

When I became a boss, I no longer need to involve myself in design work,

So I went back to the Marketing field.

Every day, when my children are sleeping,

I began learning to gain more knowledge, this again took me a long time,

But I begin to realise my returns.

 

If I rely on my working hours to gain skills,

then I will never have become a creative director and a product manager,

or like today, teaching MBA students on Marketing.

What I rely on, is myself giving myself “lessons”.

And the most successful people I knew, walked the same path as I am.

I have a friend who is a History graduate,

but he is interested in technical sales,

In the day, he does telemarketing, at night he learns how to code,

Finally, he became the vice president of sales in a startup company.

Now, he’s a CTO.

I have another friend, he received a degree in political science.

But he’s very interested in entrepreneurship.

he learnt a lot of knowledge on how to start up a company,

eventually, he founded a company and sold it,

Now he has reaped the rewards.

 

For them, what they do between 6 pm till 12 midnight,

is what determined their future.

Clearly, we need to balance life and work.

If you have a wife and children, every night, you have to stay with them.

Even if you are single, you also need a reasonable allocation of time to go to the gym, to meet with friends, or be alone to meditate and so on.

Of course, watching movies, playing games is good.

But there are things you do not need to do.

For example, watching the new season of a Netflix drama,

14 hours per week watching television (This is the average amount of time watching television).

 

The time spent playing the game Candy Crush.

 

Or spending time stalking your high school alumni on Facebook,

it does not seem to be good.

So what should you do?

 

2. Read more, anything will do!

My college mentor was born in Alabama,

A poor African family.

He was admitted to West Point Military Academy, and he became the first person in the family to go college.

Before going to Havard for his MBA, he’s a trained officer.

When I met him, he has already developed his career in the city of Colorado Springs.

 

I asked him, what’s his biggest success?

He replied, because he kept the habit of reading,

and he never stopped.

He believed that if you want to get what you want in life,

knowledge is the key.

He often asked his interviewees what book are they reading now,

the excellent ones can give an answer immediately.

Reading can give you a good headstart,

this is often what your peers cannot obtain.

Compared to others,

you are more likely to know other industries strategies and tactics,

and that may be helpful to your company.

 

You can transfer your knowledge within the organization,

create new possibilities for your company.

Moreover, your conversation topics will become more interesting.

 

Anthony Robbins said:

“If you spend one hour a day to learn about a topic,

a year later, in this regard,

the knowledge you gain will be more than 99.999% of the world’s people.”

Even if you have 30 minutes every night,

each week you can easily read a book.

You may not be an expert, but I promise,

you’ll know more than what your peers know.

 

3. Do some projects

You can apply the knowledge learnt to real work scenario,

this is only an ideal state.

If your company did not give you this opportunity,

create opportunities for yourself.

You can do some volunteer projects. They can bring you fame.

Working with a team,

you’ll understand how things work.

In the practical application of the industry,

and how it ultimately affect actual customers.

You’ll learn how to perform the task and meet deadlines,

and get feedbacks on what you are doing,

and benefit from it.

 

When you are not strong enough, these experience may not have any value to you.

But you are still a novice.

these experiences are far more valuable than the miserable pay you are getting.

If you can really convince others of your pockets of fruits of labour,

Then go try it. But do not let these private jobs affect your work.

 

4. Actively build your connections

In your career path,

a strong network of connections will make everything accelerate.

If you have not set up your own personal connections,

you’ll need to divide a portion of your time to do this.

A strong network of relationships, can enable you:

contact smart friends, and learn their opinionsget information and knowledge that are difficult to obtainhelp the company look for more potential partnersor income generating opportunities

Go get to know your work colleague or boss…..

 

If you are an entrepreneur,

your network connections will be your early customers,

your staffs are a source of capital

rather than go home, or going to a bar,

you should find some inner circles.

There are many small groups which are highly relevant to your career.

You should try to integrate into these circles.

Every week, you can drink coffee together with new friends,

go drinking or have breakfast.

 

You can also look into everyone’s career developments on LinkedIn.

And establish a network with mentors in those professional industries.

They may be your next job employer, who knows?

Your connections will be your most powerful asset in the workplace.

Since you have time to watch “The Voice of China”,

you have time to build a social network.

 

5. The CHANGE of your LIFE starts TONIGHT

6 pm to 12 am, you go home, though physically and mentally tired,

you are free to do anything and do not have to take orders from others.

During this time,

you can switch off like switching off your computer at your workplace, switch off your brain.

But you can also do something,

make you smarter, stronger, have a wider network of people.

From the start tonight, take an hour a day to do these things,

I guarantee that after a year,

your career, and life will change.

WHY BOOKS SHOULD BE INTEGRATED INTO YOUR DAILY GRIND

BOOKS ARE IMPORTANT IN EXPANDING YOUR MIND AND YOUR BUSINESS. HERE’S WHY AND HOW.

Book, books, books. I read so many articles on Inc.com and Forbes about the books Bill Gates thinks you should read or the books Mark Zuckerberg reads and to be honest it’s overwhelming.

How is the average entrepreneur who’s trying to make it supposed to keep up with the books everyone recommends or ‘thinks you should read?’ They’re millionaires and billionaires, so they can hire people to do the work and they have time to read books, right?

Right now I have a list that’s about 65 books long that I need to read. One of the things on my resolution list was to read a book a month. That happened for the first couple of months, but as soon as June hit, I got busy. When I got home from work I didn’t want to read about business because I just got home from my business.

As I continued to get emails from the publications mentioned above, they flooded me with different ideas of WHY you should read. I never thought of the ‘why.’ I just thought, “Well, I don’t have time and frankly I’d rather do mindless activities like watch TV.”

But then I read this article. Then came this one and then this one. Ugh. Once again, I was defeated. The point of reading wasn’t to waste time. People were learning and growing and more importantly learning skills that they used to make their businesses grow.

I recently ran across an article that made me take the, “Okay, I get it, I need to jump on the reading train,” route. To paraphrase it said that the point of people reading was not to waste time or to have a ‘lovely afternoon tea,’ it was to learn; it was to grow their business.

I never thought of reading like this. I thought of it as something people do to pass the time, not necessarily to learn and I didn’t think of it directly being able to help my business. This may be a no-brainer to some people, but maybe there are entrepreneurs out there like me. Here’s what I did about it.

Any free time I have at night, instead of watching TV, I’ve decided that I will dedicate it to reading. For me, prospecting new clients, networking and making sure my pipeline is full and business is running is my number one priority. However, I’ve decided to dedicate time before bed to reading. I read a chapter or 30-minutes, whichever is longer. This also has helped me sleep better. Before, I tended to be on my phone scrolling through Instagram or Facebook and have heard that’s not good for you before bed.

The books that I’ve read that I would recommend to any entrepreneur are:

The Crossroad Between Should and Must: This is about the choice between doing something and saying you’ll do it. It’s a fun, very light read that has a lot of animation in it.

Pour Your Heart Into It: This is the story of Starbucks. This is a pretty hefty book. I thoroughly enjoyed it, though. It was amazing to read about all the obstacles Howard Schultz overcame and how he grew Starbucks to what we know now.

The Power of Nice: This is a light read and a good starter book. This about an ad agency in New York’s promise to be nice to everyone, no matter what. They share their stories about how it came to their benefit in the long run and even ten years down the road.

From Grit to Great: This book is by the same authors as above and talks about how people started from nothing to becoming something. It has a lot of great stories within it.

How To Become A Rainmaker: This is a quick and easy read, and it’s perfect for any sales person or entrepreneur who is the sales person along with everything else

Lean In: This book is a MUST READ for any female in business. Whether you’re working for yourself or thinking about it, or working for someone else, this is essential. The book talks about how women need to ‘lean in’ to more responsibilities and how to overcome obstacles.
All of these books have very different personalities but are great reads to expand your mind and make you think differently. I hope you gain some insigh nto reading as I have in this article. Tweet me at @MarketingGal_ to tell me which books you enjoy or if you’ve read any of the ones above.

MFAHAMU PABLO ESCOBAR,GOD FATHER WA MADAWA YA KULEVYA ALIEACHA HISTORIA YA PEKE YAKE DUNIANI.

Ushawahi kuona mtu anajenga jela yake mwenyewe na kuiremba kisha kuchagua magereza wa kumlinda, mtu alieogopwa na wauza madawa wenzake na kuwaweka majaji, polisi na wanasiasa mfukoni kwa pesa ama vitisho. Moja ya watu wakatili aliemuondoa yoyote aliekuwa kikwazo katika njia yake akiwa na sera ya aidha ukubali rushwa au risasi za Pablo. Anaitwa Pablo Escobar a.k.a El Doctor, El Patrón,Don Pablo,El Señor, El Magico. Kila $1 aliyokua anaweka katika biashara yake alikua anapata profit OR return ya $200. Alikuwa anakusanya pesa haweki bank, anatunza ndani chini ya ardhi, juu ya dari or ukutani. Adui pekee wa hela zake walikuwa ni Panya wenye njaa kali. Kila mwaka inasemekana alikua anapoteza 10% ya faida ambayo kwa haraka haraka ni $b1, Panya walizokuwa wanakula. 

*Marekani* na Serikali ya Colombia ilitaka Pablo akamatwe na afungwe. Akakubali but Gereza akajenga yeye. Ndani ya gereza kulikuwa ni kama 5star hôtel. Alijiwekea kila kitu, Jacuzi, Bar, Pub, TV,na vitu kibao vya thamani. Pia wanawake wakawa wanaingia na akiwa jela alikuwa ana uwezo wa kutoka na kurudi kisirisiri, coz walinzi wa gereza alikuwa anawahonga vizuri sana. Baadae, Pablo alichoka maisha ya Jela la Hôtel, anataka kurudi kitaa, akatoroka. Wakati anatoroka akachukua familia yake na walinzi wake wakakimbilia Maporini. Wakati wapo huko vichakani, mtoto akaugua ghafla na kukawa na baridi sana, ukahitajika moto unajua Pablo alochofanya? Aliwasha moto wa kutoa baridi la ugonjwa wa kwa mwanae kwa kutumia noti zaidi ya 2million dollars, ziliwasha moto mtoto aote moto kupata joto, na kupika kwa note za $2,000,000, za kibongo ni b3 na m240. Alikuwa ananunua na kutumia Rubber band za $2,500 = tsh 4,050,000 za kibongo kufungia hela zake kila mwezi, so kwa mwaka alikuwa ananunua rubber band za $30,000 = 48,600,000 kufunga tu mihela yake (hata BOT hawatumii rubber band za $2,500 kwa mwezi na haijawahi kutokea kwa mtu wala taasisi) Alinunua ndege kwa ajili ya kusafirishia hela zake tu, kila trip ndege ilikuwa inabeba $10m. Mwaka 1989, Forbes ilimtaja kama tajiri wa 7 duniani, anakadiriwa kuwa na utajiri wa $25-30b, watu wake wa karibu wanasema alikuwa anazidi hata hapo coz kwa siku alikuwa anatengeneza sio chini ya $60m, coz kwa mwezi alikuwa anasafirisha zaidi ya 80-100t USA. Na ubabe wake wote, Pablo alikuwa anaogopa sana kufa. Baada ya kutoroka Jela, serikali na jeshi la Colombia wakawa wanamtafuta Pablo, akawa-offer serikali iachane nae na atailipia serikali deni ililokuwa inadaiwa $b10 zaidi ya tirioni 18 za kibongo, ili serikali imalize deni inalodaiwa, lakini serikali ilikataa, msako wa Pablo wakakabidhiwa wamarekani na kumuua December 2/1993. Mpaka leo hongo/rushwa kubwa duniani kuwahi kutokea ni hiyo ya $10b ya Pablo kutaka kulipa deni la taifa la Colombia, 10b usd = trilioni 18.

BAADA YA PROTINI KWENYE MAZIWA YA MENDE, WATAFITI WASEMA MIGUU YAKE PIA NI DAWA.

Baada ya uchunguzi wa kisayansi kubaini kwamba maziwa ya mende yana protini mara nne zaidi ya maziwa ya ng’ombe na kifaru, imebainika kwamba maziwa ya mende pia hutumika kwa matibabu mbalimbali ya binadamu.

Miongoni mwa matibabu hayo ni pamoja na kutengeneza miguu bandia ya kutumiwa na binadamu, mtafiti mkuu katika mradi uliofanyika katika Chuo Kikuu cha A&M cha Texas Hong Liangnchini Marekani amesema…….>>> ‘Nilipoona hii kwa mara ya kwanza nilishangaa’

Alisema wanasayansi kwa miaka mingi wamekua wakishangazwa na uwezo wa mende wa kukaa muda mrefu maeneo yenye sumu na uchafu bila kudhurika, wamegundua kwamba huwa wanatoa kemikali za kupambana na sumu.

Wanaweza kusaidia katika kutengeneza dawa za kusaidia binadamu kukabiliana na bakteria wanaoathiri zaidi watu kwa mfano E.Coli na MRSA ambao hawauliwi kwa dawa yoyote.

Hii siyo mara ya kwanza mende kuhusika kwenye matibabu, Mwandishi Lafcdio Hearn Karne ya 19, alipitia maeneo ya kusini mwa Marekani na kuripoti jinsi watu wenye pepopunda walivyokua wakipewa chai iliyotengenezwa kwa kuwekwa kwa mende aliandia kuwa …….>>>’Sijui ni mende wangapi hutumiwa hadi upate kikombe cha chai, lakini wakazi wa New Orleans wana imani na tiba hiyo’

Pia alisema China kuna mafuta yanayotengenezwa kwa kutumia ungaunga wa mende. Hutumiwa kutumiwa vidonda vya moto pia humezwa kutibu vidonda tumbo. Kuna aina 4500 ya mende na aina nne pekee ambao huwa waaribifu.

UFAHAMU UGONJWA HUU,WATU WENGI WANAUMWA NA HAWAJIJUI.

Anaandika Dr.Chriss Cyrilo (Daktari wa binadamu).
_____________________________________________

UFAHAMU UGONJWA WA "NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER".

By Dr.Christopher Cyrilo (MD)

Umewahi kusikia ugonjwa wa akili uitwao 'Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD).?' Huenda hujawahi kusikia jina hilo lakini pengine umewahi kuona mtu mwenye dalili za ugonjwa huo. Kadri utakavyoendelea kusoma utaweza kuoanisha dalili za ugonjwa huu na jamii unayoishi nayo na kuona kati ya jamaa zako kama kuna yeyote anayeugua gonjwa hili hatari la akili.

Ugonjwa huu huwaathiri sana watu wazima na hususani viongozi wa taasisi mbalimbali lakini zaidi taasisi za kisiasa. Wapo baadhi ya viongozi wa taasisi nyingine kama vile za dini, elimu, mashirika, makampuni ambao huweza kuugua pia lakini wahanga wakubwa wa ugonjwa huu ni viongozi wa kisiasa.

DALILI ZAKE:
1. Dalili mojawapo za gonjwa hili ni kuwa mtu wa kujisifu na kujivuna (self centered and egoistic), kupaniki, kudharau wengine na kupuuza hisia zao.

2. Mgonjwa huhisi kuwa yeye tu ndio mtu muhimu kuliko wengine na mawazo yake ni sahihi kuliko mawazo ya wengine, na hakuna mjadala. 

3. Maneno na vitendo vya wagonjwa wa Narcissistic Disorder hulenga tu kwenye kujijengea umaarufu na mafanikio binafsi na kutaka kupendwa na watu.

4. Wagonjwa hawa wanapokuwa viongozi, hutumia zaidi vyombo/watu wanaomuunga mkono kukandamiza watu wasiomuunga mkono.

5. Wagonjwa wa aina hii huchagua maneno ya vitisho na mbinu za kuogofya ili kujipa nafasi ya kutamba katika ulingo wa siasa bila changamoto kutoka kwa wapinzani wake.
Mifano ya viongozi wa aina hii ni Idd Amin Dada wa Uganda na  Adolf Hitler wa Germany. Na hao pia walikuwa na wafuasi wengi pamoja na matendo yao yasio ya kawaida.

ATHARI ZAKE:
Wataalamu wa saikolojia wanashauri kuwa, wagonjwa wa "Narcissistic personality disorder" hawapaswi kuwa viongozi wakubwa wa kisiasa. Wanafaa kuongoza familia, kampuni, vikao vya ukoo au jumuiya ndogondogo ambapo watu ni wachache na mawazo kinzani ni nadra.

Lakini wanapopewa majukumu ya kuongoza mataifa/nchi au taasisi kubwa ambapo watu ni wengi na kuna mawazo mengi kinzani huweza kuleta maafa makubwa sana ikiwemo umwagaji wa damu.

Mbaya zaidi, watu wenye gonjwa hili huweza kujiona watakatifu, wapenda watu na watu wazuri, tofauti na matendo yao.

MATIBABU:
Matibabu ya ugonjwa huu ni magumu sana kwa sababu mgonjwa huwa hajui kama anaumwa, na hata ukiambiwa huwa hakubali. Wengi wanaougua ugonjwa huu ukiwaambia wao ni wagonjwa wanaweza kukuadhibu.

Wagonjwa wa aina hii hupatiwa matibabu maalumu ya mazoezi ya akili (psychotherapy) kutoka ka wataalamu waliobobea (Psychotherapist). Hakuna dawa mahususi ya kumeza kwa wagonjwa wa aina hii, lakini kama hali itakua mbaya wanaweza kutibiwa kwa kutumia #antidepressants au #antianxiety.

SWALI;
Je, katika jamii yako unayoishi umewahi kuona dalili za kuongozwa na mtu mwenye ugonjwa huu wa akili? Je umechukua hatua gani??
