Common Interview Blunders You Must Avoid

Posted on December 20, 2011 by bf906

The word interview brings with it some fear of being rejected. If you start with a negative thought in your head, then you may end up with a negative result as every move of yours will be directed with that negative thought. adult single chat To negate the chances of it, clear your mind and focus on what to do and not to do when appearing for an interview. live girls If you are scared or do not have the right frame of mind for the interview, you are bound to commit some of the most common interview blunders. First of all, you should be glad that your resume and cover letter passed the screening process and you are called for a face-to-face interview. With the amount of competition and the number of job seeking people around, one definitely should be glad enough if not lucky. Let’s take a look at some of the most common interview blunders you must avoid. Before we move onto the blunders to be avoided at the interview, I’d like to make an important point relating to the preparation stage of the interview. When preparing for the interview, it is not enough to simply assort all the documents but it is also important to go through the sample interview questions. Sample questions help a great deal in tackling the interview. So do go through them and try to answer it in front of a friend or tape it to check how correct and confident do you sound.

· Arriving late for the interview tops the list. Not adhering to the time is as good as disrespecting the interviewer and reflecting lack of interest. So be punctual!

· Along with a couple of copy of your resume, also carry all the documents just in case you are asked to show them.

· Being inappropriately dressed for the interview depicts sloppiness hence it should be avoided. Dress in formals and look like you are here to get a job and not here for a casual chat with the interviewers.

· Give to the point answers to the questions asked by the interviewer. It is not at all necessary to crib or go on and on about your previous organization.

· Do not lie about your qualifications, work experience or your skills. People conducting the interviews are professionals who are probably in the business for a considerable amount of time. If you decide to show wrong or fake qualifications or skills they can catch you a in a jiffy and then you can bid goodbye to the hopes of getting that much needed job that you almost had at hand.

· A person’s body language speaks a lot about what’s going on in his/her head and can actually assess the state of mind or the anxiousness running in that person. So don’t be fidgety and over-conscious. Relax your arms and shoulders, sit easy, breathe easy and maintain your composure. Also maintain eye contact as not maintaining would suggest that the person is either not serious or are unsure of what they are saying.

· Do not give a deaf ear to the interviewer and as they would appreciate you wanting to repeat the questions. Do not stray away from the question and talk about an unrelated topic.

· Avoid seeming desperate by asking irrelevant questions. Your salary questions may be valid but keep it for the end as the interviewer will most definitely give you a chance to ask questions.

· Be enthusiastic but don’t be overenthusiastic and overconfident as these are certainly not the traits that a boss would be looking for in a prospective employee.

· Be aware of your strengths and weaknesses. Any stumbling and fumbling at this question would suggest lack of awareness about yourself and your skills.

· When asked “what do you know about our company?” be prepared to answer confidently of whatever you have researched. It demonstrates your interest in the job.

So now you are aware of the common interview blunders you must avoid and how to avoid them. I have heard of funny instances where people sing in response to the questions asked and getting greeting cards instead of getting a resume etc. But you… you need that job! So stop yourself from committing any possible blunders whatsoever. Be alert and go grab that job!

Tattoo Designs for Everyone

Posted on November 22, 2011 by bf906

Tattoos are now more common than it ever was and more people are getting inked up than ever before. Before heading to your neighborhood tattoo artist however, you might want to choose a tattoo design first. Choosing just one among many tattoo designs is the greatest challenge you’ll encounter in getting the perfect tattoo for skin.

Before you decide, reflect on the reason why you want to have a tattoo in the first place. Was there an extremely personal experience that you want immortalized on your body? Is it to show pride for your heritage and culture? Or do you simply want a piece of meaningful art on your skin? Whatever the reason may be, knowing and understanding why you want a tattoo could help you narrow down tattoo designs.

A lot of people make the mistake of choosing a design that only appeals to them aesthetically. There’s nothing wrong with that except that if you’re going for a more personal and meaningful piece, the design should match your emotion of feelings.

Remember that a tattoo is a reflection of who you are and what you’re about. Tattoo magazines may display amazing works of art that may be visually appealing but ask yourself, do these designs represent who you really are?

There are many magazines that feature tattoo designs from well-known tattoo artists. Some people just scan through these, choose a design and have it inked. That’s also one way of finding a tattoo design for you but bear in mind that these designs may not be as unique as you’d want them to be. Because they are published and circulated all over the world, expect other people to have the same tattoo design.

If you prefer something that’s uniquely and distinctively yours, you could ask or request your tattoo artist to come up with a design for you. Although it may cost more to have your tattoo artist sketch your design, it comes with many advantages.

First, he knows his own limitations so he’ll draw something that he could ink on your skin with colors that are available in his shop. There are instances when a customer brings a ready-made design to a tattoo artist and it comes out slightly different so it’s best to have him draw what he can tattoo on you. Secondly, you will be able to collaborate with him on the design that you truly want and have it tweaked to your exact vision. You could choose your own symbols and colors to make it more personal and more meaningful.

Remember that tattoos are a lifetime commitment so you might as well go for a design that you can be forever proud of.

The Thoughtful Way to Shop for Bridesmaids Dresses

Posted on November 22, 2011 by bf906

When a bride is shopping for her wedding gown, she looks for a beautiful dress that makes her feel special, one that looks even better on her than in the store window, one that is The One. When it comes to dresses for bridesmaids, however, many brides are concentrated on one thing, and one thing only. They want the bridesmaid dresses to be the right color so they go nicely with the whole color scheme of the wedding. As much as the color of the bridesmaid dresses is important, it’s definitely not the only thing to pay attention to when shopping. If you’re a bride-to-be, you might want to take some of these other aspects into consideration as well.

Just like designer wedding dresses, bridesmaids dresses are to be worn all day long, throughout the time when the bride is getting ready, the ceremony and the reception, which, of everything goes right, is not going to end too early. That’s why just like the bride’s gown, they have to be chosen for the specific type of wedding day that’s ahead of the bridesmaids. Whether it’s an outdoor affair, an elegant event or just a friendly gathering, the dresses should be chosen so that the bridesmaids can be comfortable and not feel out of place wearing them.

Being that the dresses will be worn for long hours, they should be comfortable and functional. Tight corsets, strapless designs or long, narrow skirts may look great, but if your bridesmaids can’t move in their dresses, they won’t be able to be helpful, they won’t have any fun and they definitely won’t have too many warm feelings towards you. So be sure to opt for dresses that give them some breathing room, designs that will hold in place no matter how much running or dancing the bridesmaids do and hemlines that don’t get in the way with each step.

Breathing room and overall comfort as important for every bridesmaid, but they shouldn’t be obtained through completely sacrificing any style or shape. You want your bridesmaids to look pretty and feminine, so avoid any designs that are too loose or too tight, take into consideration all your friends individually and either choose a design that will flatter them all, or decide to have the bridesmaids dresses differ slightly in cut so that neither of the girls is self conscious when standing in front of your wedding guests.

Last but not least, unless you’re covering the costs yourself, a price sticker on tat bridesmaid dress is also something you might want to take a look at before unanimously declaring you’ve found the dresses. You don’t want your friends to have to spend too much on bridesmaids dresses they will only wear once, and you want to make the purchase financially comfortable for everybody, regardless of their financial status, so shop smart and don’t be afraid of sales or talking to your bridesmaids where they would feel comfortable as far as price range, and that way you won’t have any unpleasant surprises to deal with.

Vedanta As I Understand – Introduction

Posted on November 22, 2011 by bf906

From my personal experience, I am convinced with Advaita (non-dual) philosophy that there is only ONE God. The entire universe is ONE and all are inter-connected. What qualifies me to write on this topic? I am in no way superior to any of you, readers. I am a companion to you in life – a seeker of ‘existence’ in the present body.

My writings are based on what I learned, understood, experienced and convinced about. The benefits of Upanishads are enormous. Lectures on Upanishads must be attended on a regular basis with a guru consistently in a group discussion often called satsang. Soon you begin to observe that your attitude toward life and your priorities changes resulting in less stressful life. Your mind becomes calm, fearless, thoughts reduced, negative thoughts eliminated, you are able to see a bigger picture of life and thereby you enjoy the bliss continuously for the rest of your life.

‘Upanishads are a mine of strength’ said swami Vivekananda. I started studying Sanathana Dharma philosophy in 1997. I come from a simple, middle class family. My father passed away when I was 13 and his demise led me to question the existence of me, my mother and my siblings at that age. Though this thought was constantly in mind I was too young to discuss, share or ask questions. I did not really meet anyone who would talk on such topics. I studied in Bombay, married and lived in Bangalore, Madras and migrated to the USA. I was neither ritualistic nor spiritualistic but performed the regular prayer at home because that is what my mother did. It was nothing but a routine tradition that I inherited, though I believed there is some supernatural power governing us. The question of ‘existence’ and thoughts like ‘Who am I, Why am I here?” persisted continuously at the back of my mind. I, very often feel like a visitor on this universe performing my duties.

In the past twenty-two years, I took world religion class, traveled far and wide, met several people, and visited many missions including Hare Rama Hare Krishna camps, Self Realization Fellowship, Sankara Matt, and Vedantic Society of California. I attended their weekly lectures and pursued the lectures and satsang with Chinmaya Mission, Los Angeles, closer to my home.

When my uncles and aunts passed away, my enquiry on life was kindled again and again. When my husband and mother passed away, I focused on deeper study of Upanishads which answered all my questions on life. The study of Upanishads has given me tremendous mental strength, physical strength, fearlessness, objectivity towards life and positive attitude. I feel totally free, cheerful, relaxed and peaceful.

The credit goes to Upanishadic studies, understanding and reflection of it and I decided to share what I learned in simple understandable language as requested by readers.

Upanishads cannot be understood academically, nor can they be completely studied in one life period. Tkke your time to fully comprehend and do not rush into completing the book on hand. The language, the interpretations, the intentions of what is said cannot be understood by literal meaning. Also some words in Sanskrit are interpreted differently in each Upanishad. Often times, literal meaning may appear contradictory within the same sentence or paragraph. These can be learned only when the meaning is understood with reference to that context, in that particular text under the direction of a guru.

One such word is renounce. Renounce or sacrifice (not a literal meaning) does not mean to physically leave everything and live alone in the forest. It simply means renounce the idea of you are the owner of something or anything. Realize that you may lose anything, any time and be prepared to let go. This mental attitude is renouncing. You can still be in the family, own a house, have possessions but be prepared to let go. Realize your body might not be alive to enjoy them or you might lose them for whatever reason.

Vedas came into existence directly from the Lord as revelations more than 5000 years ago. No one knows the exact period. These were passed along by word of mouth for many centuries to many generations. There is no one author but they are interpreted in different ways. Often the idea is repeated to reiterate the theme for a common man to understand.

Vedas are of two parts. Karma Kanda and Jnana Kanda. Karma kanda has three sections. Veda Samhitas, Brahamana and Upanishads. Upanishads are also called Vedanta (Veda anta, the end of the Vedas). Vedas are divided into four sections – Rg, Yajur, Sama and Atharva. Rg is in poetic form, Yajur is in prose form, Sama is a mixture of both, while Atharva is primarily Rg and yajur, named after a rishi by name Atharva.

There are a total of 108 upanishads. Adi Sankaracharya commented on ten of them. He opened up the treasures to the general public between 788-820 A.D. Brihad Aranyaka Upanishad and Chandogya Upanishad are very large and profound. Some Upanishads are smaller with few verses.

We use Science and Technology and focus on the world outside of us living in an urbanized world, surrounded by violence, deforestation, pollution, and endangered species while the rishis of ancient India lived peacefully in hermitages, more like retreats. They closed their eyes and entered into a world and got answers to all their questions on life.

With full confidence in what they learned, the statement ‘There is No Other Way’ often appears in Upanishads. NOW is the time to learn about the Upanishads!!

Silence until next….

How You Can Improve Your Portrait Photography

Posted on November 22, 2011 by bf906

We all love to sit back and relive a moment in our lives. These are moments in our past when we were innocent and carefree. Without the worries of life that so many of us take for granted these days. These moments for most of us are captured through pictures. From the moment we are born most of us have a camera pointed directly at us. This is the way we preserve our visual memory. There are two methods in which we preserve these visual memories. Candid shots are those where the subjects are unaware, unplanned, and without posing. Portraits are shots where the subjects are posed and aware that a picture is being taken. With each style there are ways to capture the perfect shot if you follow a few simple rules. First on the list should be to pick the location you want to use for you portrait session.

You’ll find that studios aren’t the greatest locations for you portrait photography. Sure it’s easier in a studio to capture a pretty good posed picture. However, to get a great shot you need to expand beyond the studio. The best way to do this is by going to a park or somewhere as simple as in your own backyard. You can even follow your subject on their way to work or while the stroll down the street.

Showing the subject in their natural surroundings allows them to be more relaxed. If they feel a bit awkward then it will reflect in your shots. This will also allow you to get a natural shot instead of your subject giving a staged appearance. Your going to get a better picture a child playing at a playground. Rather than if you try and take them to a studio and ask them to sit still for a hour. It just doesn’t work and again this will reflect in your shots. The next step would be getting the proper lighting.

There are many different ways you can use light in portraits. Most studios use off camera lighting due to the limited natural lighting at their disposal. You can however use a window as a great way to get soft and diffused lighting. Make sure you place your subject at an angle and not looking forward straight out the window. This is probably the best way to get some natural lighting in your studio setting.

Natural lighting is best achieved outdoors. An overcast day offers the best lighting. Sunny days are great for a picnic, but they can cause your pictures to be over exposed. If you have a sunny day and you aren’t able to shade the subject under a tree or building. Then make sure you don’t position them facing the sun. Most photographers think this sun will reduce shadows. Actually, by pointing them directly at the sun it creates more shadows. These can be touched up in post processing, but if you have 700 shots to process. It can be extremely time consuming to fix an issue you shouldn’t have too if it was done correctly during the shoot. Finally, there are a few other tips that you can use to improve your portrait photography.

Go back and look at your shots that don’t turn out that good. Study the shot and figure out why the shot isn’t that good. Determine if it’s because of lighting or the settings on your camera. Always try and improve and learn from your mistakes.

Take the time to learn a little about your subject. You can get a pretty good idea of what they will and what they won’t like. You don’t have to get to know their life story. It also helps to make your subject comfortable as well.

Whether your shooting a candid or posed shot. Shooting portrait photography is a skill that you should always strive to improve on. Capturing a special event or moment in a person’s life and being able to tell their story through your pictures. In the end that’s what portrait photography’s ultimate goal is.

Some Easy Steps to Making New Friends

Posted on November 22, 2011 by bf906

Making new friends is an art by itself, as most of us do fail miserably in creating a long list of friends. The more friends you make, more will you grow in your social stature and personality. To make new friends, you’ll need to adopt friendly nature, as well as a sweet disposition. There are lots of ways you can make new friends every day and every year. However, you may need to develop certain positive traits to make new friends; being extrovert or outgoing is probably a deciding factor while making new friends. A good circle of friends is a treasure to own, and such a group will help you grow as a person.

It takes a tremendous effort to make new friends; plainly speaking, friendship is made out of mutual trust and belief. It does take a while to develop mutual trust and belief, as no one will trust you in the initial stages of friendship. Experts suggest that, to make new friends, you may need to get close, within the acceptable circle of association with your future friend. This is also often called the culture barrier, an emotional barrier which usually prevents people from getting close to each other. Once this barrier is breached, you may start creating a meaningful friendship.

There are several ways of making new friends and each person has his/her own methods to make friends. Here is one of the more popular methods that are used to create friendship:

To make a new friend, you may have to create a situation where the other person feels at ease and comfortable with your mannerism and attitude. Never allow your future friend to get bored with your talk. Rude manners and boorishness are a strict no-no. Simplest of all known formulas to make a new friend is using an innovative FORM system.

FORM system is known to create a good atmosphere to develop friendship or even companionship. FORM simply means Family, Occupation, Recreation and Message. Most of us just love our families, relatives and close friends. When you enquire any person about his/her family, you’re making sure that his/her immediate concerns are first addressed, which draws that person towards your circle, a slow step by step. Every one of us loves to tell more about our parents, wives, children and pets. Once you know more about the family status of your would-be friend, the next obvious step is to enquire about occupation that is being followed by your future friend.

We also love to brag about our occupation, job and positions. By enquiring about occupation, you’re ensuring that you are coming much closer to other person’s inner circle. The third step is to talk casually about their pet hobbies, pastime, favorite sports and leisure. During this stage you’re probably inching towards a certain friendship with that person. Talk anything about those wonderful hobbies and sports. Exchange views and ideas, which are mutually beneficial to both of you.

Probably the most important step is the “Message” step, when you should leave out a message that is easy to remember by the other person. This final message must also bear your address and contact number in form of a visiting card. Message may include something about your name, profession, address and your honest opinion about the person whom you’re trying to make new friends with. Never forget to say thank you at the end of the conversation and always keep your options open, to decide if you want to be friends with the other person. Follow up with that person if you’re keen on making a new friendship. But remember friendships are about give and take, and supporting each other. Never hurt their sentiments and emotions in any manner. Be courteous and gentle, especially if the other person happens to be a woman or a girl.

Definition of Open Relationship: Advantages and Disadvantages of This Way of Life

Posted on November 22, 2011 by bf906

What do you consider to be the definition of open relationship? Do you believe you can be in love with one person while also having sexual encounters with other people? Is a non-exclusive relationship beneficial to or bad for the partners involved? Here are some things to think about if you are considering having a non-exclusive relationship.

Various Kinds of Open Relationships

The definition of open relationship is ambiguous, and it can mean different things to different people. No matter what definition you adopt, make sure you have safe sexual encounters, and act safely with all of your partners. You should want to protect the person you love the most – so make sure you use safe sex practices.

Benefits

Individuals who support non-exclusive relationships tend to think that the freedom their outside encounters gives them makes them a better partner to their significant other.

Another much-used justification for the benefits of an open relationship is that if a couple agrees that they can have involvements with other people, this ultimately stops partners cheating.

While not everyone can see the benefits of a non-exclusive relationship, many people who choose to have such a relationship are often pleased about the choice they have made.

Negatives

One of the main and very important negative factors of having an open relationship is that you can allow yourself and your significant other to become exposed to sexually transmitted diseases. This should be a major aspect to consider. A further negative factor is that you are almost asking to make yourself insecure, jealous and many other stressful emotions. Imagine how you would feel if your significant other fell in love with one of their encounters or one-night stand. A non-exclusive relationship can be the source of a huge amount of emotional chaos.

If you want to have an Open Relationship

If you are thinking about asking your significant other to be in a non-exclusive relationship with you, you should be sure to broach the subject very gently. You will have to provide a very convincing explanation and justification, and you may cause the break-down of your relationship.

If you require assistance, think about getting professional help on how to handle the situation. A counselor will be able to provide guidance on how to approach your partner with your suggestion.

If your significant other suggests An Open Relationship

If your significant other tells you they want a non-exclusive relationship, you should perhaps discuss with a professional counselor as to whether this type of arrangement will work within your relationship.

A counselor can assist you to make a sensible decision, rather than purely an emotional one. They can guide you through all the queries the suggestion of having a non-exclusive relationship raises. For example, why does your significant other feel this is how he wants things? Do you both have the same definition of open relationship?

Overall, all healthy relationships involve honesty, respect and trust, as well as a mature outlook. Be thankful you’re able to discuss the issue together as a couple. Hopefully you’ll be able to come to a decision that is the best for everyone involved.

Online Senior Dating: Sites Geared For Seniors To Make A Connection

Posted on November 22, 2011 by bf906

Millions of people all around the world and from all different backgrounds now use internet dating to help meet other like minded singles for all different sorts of relationships, from casual flirting and dating right through to marriage. With the bigger online dating sites having members from almost all conceivable walks of life and special sites to cater for niche markets (such as people looking for a partner of a certain religion, age, or even income) then regardless of what they want in a partner, anybody with an internet connection can join in and start meeting new people.

One of the biggest niche markets in online dating is online senior dating. Online senior dating sites allow their members to search and connect with people, knowing that every match candidate is over a certain age. This can be great for older people, because the entire culture of the site is geared towards helping more mature people find dates, so you won’t be inundated with pictures of twenty-two year old’s every time you log on.

Most online senior dating sites are for the over 50′s, however there are some with a lower age threshold of 40. These are probably a better choice if you are at the younger end of the over 50′s age range, as you wouldn’t generally want to rule out somebody a few years younger. If you are older, perhaps in your late sixties or seventies, an Over 50′s online senior dating site might be more in line with what you are looking for, as you probably don’t want to meet a 45 year old.

Online senior dating sites are great for people who have decided to start dating again later in life (in many cases due to being widowed or divorced) because you can meet plenty of people without having to try and take up a busy social life to find potential dates. You can message, chat and flirt with people online, and when you find somebody you really like, you can meet up in real life and see where it takes you.

Of course, if you don’t like the idea of being on a “senior” site (and a lot of people in their 40′s and 50′s are quite horrified that these sites consider them to be seniors!) or you want to find someone much younger than you then there is always the option of joining a mainstream dating site that is open to anybody – there will be plenty of people on there too, whatever age group you are searching for.

As with any other dating site, you should exercise some caution when talking to people online – be careful when giving out contact details, and, I you arrange to meet someone in person, make sure the date is in a public place and that somebody knows you are going. The vast majority of people on online dating sites are genuine and really just want to meet somebody nice, but it is always best to put your personal security first.
