5 ways festive times can be used for networking

Born in family of  a farmer, I have seen many festival days over a year. To me festival means some elders will be invited over meal, may be one, ten or hundreds. My basic understanding about festival was when many grand parents from neighborhood will come to our home, priest will come to  offer prayers to God and then meal will be served. Kids will be asked to maintain silence or go in the open and play with aunts.
Ah, those were the good old days. Those days taught me a lot specially discipline and respect to elders. Do not raise fights with other kids was also a norm.
Very soon during my teens I realized we have many festival over the years. So for me best festive season were from Christmas to New Year; vacations, no homework, study what you want, when you want and enjoy crispy foods throughout the day. Crispy sweet delicacies were made specially during winters.
I started living alone during teens and became part of Metro cities. In all big cities I observed Diwali is celebrated in very high spirit. Many people call it a way of networking. My childhood festival time is arriving soon, In a span of Ten Days we are going to celebrate Christmas and New Year. Though there are no leaves from work like old days but I am pretty sure to enjoy my fair share again and here is the beginning.

5 ways festive times can be used for networking

1. Show your cooking skills. Personally I believe, if you are human and live in a civilize society you know to cook at least one recipe. Invite your friends and friends of friends; cook, serve and share on the tunes of your favorite song.

2. Send E-Greeting Cards to everyone. SAVE TREES. If you not a social media person then too you may have thousands of email addresses. Greet All. Extending a hearty wish is not a sin.

3. Teach Neighborhood Kids. Chose a holiday, go to the neighborhood and teach kids some good habits. It could be cleanliness or save environment or may be some algebra if the St. APJ Abdul Kalam is your forefather. 

4. Go for charity. If you are fortunate enough you may find some NGO near you. Talk to them and join the work. Also you can count of temples, mosques and churches or Gurudwara etc.

5. Organize or Take Part in Events. During festive times many events happen in and around us. Also you can organize your own. If you are organizing and even post event schedules in your local city directory, so many people can join you. 

KEEP YOUR BUSINESS CARD READY TO HANDOVER TO NEWLY MADE FRIENDS.

Wishing you all readers Merry Christmas and Very-Very Happy New Year

Children's Day 2025 and Books by NehruJi, The First Prime Minsiter of India

Knowledge is a sharp tool; Pen is a mighty weapon. When both work together creates a Dynamo of Wisdom, a powerhouse, a constant source of energy. Perhaps some of you readers would agree with me, some not, the word 'Chacha' or 'Uncle' largely signifies to the protector, the person who rises above the occasion to take care of you, take care of your needs without personal gain or wants. The Prime Minister of India, Shri Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was bestowed with Title Chacha, Chacha of Children and the Chacha of anyone in need, needs of love, needs to gain confidence, needs to get pushed to cover that extra mile to pursue success. Often, Chacha is also used to show respect towards a person. Children's Day is celebrated every year on 14th November, the birth anniversary of NehruJi. To learn from his wisdom we need to know him, his views and visions. The Internet is full of stories and articles about NehruJi. However, I thought to wish you readers Happy Children's Day...

Hostgator India and Bigrock are not two different now

    Mergers and acquisitions are common in business world. To do business you need to join hands. Long back Hostgator was not in India, then it spread its wings and come to this geography. Hostgator is a trusted partner you can count on to buy a service or subscription. Its customer support was awesome, just raise one ticket and you are done. That was my experience with Hostgator in past. Bigrock was a separate entity, I seen big rock adverts often but I was a Hostgator customer. It offers affiliate programmes too. But instead of chosing affiliate I recommended my customers always to chose Hostgator. Many people was like its costly and my simple reply was its Hostgator.  Now Hostgator India and Bigrock  are not two but one. Who joined hands with whom and why I won't go and dig those details for now. But, now BigRock has bigger responsibilities in its hands. So, people like me, may be those are a fistful only can say, its Bigrock, it was Hostgator. Not...

9 simple to do tasks to build and scale up a business

#1. Keep your surroundings clean:  Pick that clean towel right away and clean your work zone, your desk, your study room or whatever you call it. Clean environment will make you feel nice and relaxed. You will be better focused. #2. Set your work schedule: Observe anything in nature it has a schedule and pace. Nature works in a constant manner. Sun rises everyday, not go for a holiday. Earth not go slow on its rotatory motion. River water makes it own path. Man is a part of nature. Be consistent. My High School English teacher was a Gold Medalist. He never studied more than 2 hours a day. #3. Eat when Hungry: Calories from right sources in right amount. No you do not need a weighing scale to do this. Human body always tells what is good, what is bad. Elephant never eats grass.

If its not your choice rea...
