Use Video Analysis To Improve Your Job Interview Skills

Use Video Analysis To Improve Your Job Interview Skills 14 Use video analysis like professional sports teams to understand your job interview mistakes and change for the better. This is a guest blog post by Jason Nethercott of Business Process Vision. ‘I would often forget the original question' When I was preparing for a job interview for the position of business analyst at a large corporate company a couple of years ago, I knew I had a problem. I'm a waffler and I would attempt to answer questions from 90 different angles with 360 explanations of specific degrees of influence that could affect each. To make matters worse, during the interviews I would be so busy explaining, describing and clarifying that I would often forget the original question and suffer through one of those ‘long, silent periods'. Well it was time to do something about my interview performance before this next big interview. I needed to see myself in an interview situation â€" how were my explanations addressing those tricky behavioral questions, did I look relaxed, where was I looking, was I speaking too fast? Essentially, I needed to see my many mistakes ‘warts and all', review and improve. So I turned to what any good professional sports team coach would do to dramatically improve results and used video analysis. It helped to create the most realistic setting possible and what a huge benefit it was! How I used video analysis I had two friends ask me a variety of relevant interview questions while being videoed. After listening to my friend's feedback we would all review and discuss the video which I'd play back on a large TV screen. It was so much more believable and meaningful for me being able to actually see myself objectively in that situation. It took me around 90 minutes to go from waffling, un-directed answers to clear, relevant and structured answers with good examples. My confidence also increased throughout the session from being able to see my progress from the first recording to the final one and it felt great knowing that I was communicating so much effectively. So what happened in the actual interview? It was a breeze â€" I had good eye contact, felt relaxed and confident, answered clearly and concisely and enjoyed the whole process. I was offered the job the next day and started work 2 weeks later at the highest paying job I had ever had. Interestingly, it wasn't really the role that suited my strengths, qualifications, or experience but I got it anyway and learned a lot.

Tips For Women Working With Children Who Are Not Their Own

Tips For Women Working With Children Who Are Not Their Own Not everybody is cut out to work with children. Though there are many different jobs out there that require that you work with children, it’s important that you know that each job has different requirements and pressures. A woman working with elementary students will face challenges much different than a woman working with high schoolers or a woman working with children in a daycare or nannying type setting. Every child is unique and is being or has been raised in an environment that contrasts the environment you set up in your work setting. You might hold children to a different standard than they’re used to at home and so you’re going to get children who act out, talk back, and make your life difficult. But you’re also going to have those amazing children that are the reason why you do what you do. Are you a woman who is navigating the ever changing waters of working with children who are not your own?  Here are some tips you might be able to implement to make things go smoother when there are rough seas. Don’t Underestimate Training When dealing with children, there are a lot of practical things you need to know how to do. For instance, if you’re a nanny, you run a daycare, or you find yourself in other situations where you have to tend to the needs of a human being who is unable to tend to themselves, you’ll be happy to have the proper training under your belt. This could be training with an emphasis on newborns, or    it could be handling toddler boys.  It could be special training on CPR for infants. Whatever your realm of work, don’t underestimate training.   Going in prepared is a lot less stressful than learning a lesson on the spot. Use the Right Form of Discipline Discipline is a challenging topic to talk about nowadays. For years, nuns would physically spank their students in catholic school with paddles.  But times have changed and many people don’t believe in discipline at at. No discipline creates unruly children and situations, so it’s important to have discipline and rules.  But it’s also important to get to know your children to know what kind of discipline they learn from. Refrain from anything hands on or physical.  But don’t be afraid to take away liberties and things that the children like to do to prove a point. You aren’t a parent, but you are the guardian for the time frame that you have them.  And when you’re responsible to teach and shepherd, you can’t do that without rules in place. Working with children who are not your own presents its challenges, but it’s also extremely rewarding, so don’t give up hope. Find the good, and implement rules and reward good behavior.

Essential Things You Need to Know About Taking Risks - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career

Essential Things You Need to Know About Taking Risks - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career We are continually evaluating risk in our lives. We try to decide whats safe and whats dangerous. These decisions are usually based on emotions rather than on reliable information. In many ways, the world is a much safer place than it’s ever been. For most of us, infant mortality is down, life expectancy is up and we have access to safe food, clean water, and advanced medical care. This translates into dramatically reduced risk than our grandparents faced. At the same time, some have a more pessimistic view about the new risks we face. They recognize that though risks we had faced have decreased, other new hazards have been introduced. Some would cite, hazardous waste, potential nuclear power accidents, unknown effects of genetically modified foods, ozone depletion, terrorism, or the recent ebola epidemic in West Africa. Both arguments are true. We live in a safer world in some ways and a more dangerous world in other ways. To make the best decisions possible, an investor, employee or business manager needs reliable information to put the relative risks into perspective. If we are excessively cautious and avoid all risk, we remain stagnant, complacent and could possibly suffer from isolation and depression. On the other extreme, if we are impulsive and take foolish risks we could end up making regrettable decisions. Our goal is to understand the emotional drivers of risk and the factual nature of the situations we face. The highest risk doesnt always correlate with the highest return. The recent Pew Research study,  â€˜Portrait of the Millennials, explored the behaviors, values and opinions of the teens and twenty-somethings that make up the Millennial Generation. The study revealed some interesting facts about Millennials: They are more optimistic about their future than older adults are about their future; they are more receptive to change, to immigration, to interracial dating, et cetera. But surprisingly, on a classic social science question â€" do you think people can generally be trusted, or do you think when you’re dealing with other people, you can’t be too careful? â€" two-thirds of Millennials say you can’t be too careful. Nine-eleven (9/11) told them it’s a mean world; Columbine tells them that â€" the major experiences in their life. And whereas Boomers looked at institutions and said, boy, you’ve screwed everything up, [Millennials] look to institutions and say, you got to protect us. The other thing we know about Millennials is that they show a genuine aversion to risk and that’s why they’re planning ahead. It also could explain why their first question when they come for a job is not what’ll I get paid next week, but what are my odds here three or five years out? How do I kind of plan my life here? For those of us who are overly risk averse, Oliver Burkemans WSJ article,  The Power of Negative Thinking,    may help us recalibrate our fear of failure. Just thinking in sober detail about worst-case scenarios can help to sap the future of its anxiety-producing power.” We can gain inspiration from Steve Jobs famous declaration; “Remembering that you are going to die is the best way that I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.” Ironically, we waste our time when we worry about not achieving our goals and in the end it’s the worrying and fear that limit us most from pursuing them. One effective strategy to overcoming one’s fear of failure is to start out by envisioning the worst-case scenario. Envision failure and consider it an integral part of the process for initiating success.  Once you confront your worst fear and see that it doesn’t kill you, you can then plan for how you can recover. If you are one who becomes paralyzed by your fear of a negative outcome, I suggest you adopt the following motto; Plan for the worst and hope for the best. Try to maintain a sense of humor about the “roller coaster” of emotions called life. Greatness comes from allowing oneself to be vulnerable. Those who engage in activities, which expose their vulnerability, may be the strongest among us. Fear of failure does not eclipse their striving for new knowledge and growth. They understand that failure is on the path to developing something that might change the world. Perhaps we can all become more successful once we shift our mindset to yearning for opportunities to take risks. As a society, we have benefited from those who were willing to take risks and who didn’t become discouraged by their failures. We need to delight in exploration for its own sake and let go of our fear of judgment from peers. When we learn from our mistakes, failure can be an instructive experience. Perhaps it’s time to start making ourselves more vulnerable, taking more risks and occasionally failing in order to achieve greater success. Marc and Angel Chernoff’s book, 00 Little Things Happy Successful People Do Differently helps clarify why people avoid taking risk and how to overcome your fears that prevent you from exploiting opportunities that come from assuming risks in life. Marc and Angel Chernoff said, Risk is an inherent part of living a good life. Without taking risks, you cannot truly live… you merely exist.   Which is why the happiest among us take small risks every day.  Let’s take a look at ten examples given in their book, and examine some ideas on how to implement them in your own life. The Possibility of Being Hurt As you grow up, you will learn that even the one person who wasn’t supposed to ever let you down probably will in some small way. You will have your heart broken probably more than once. You too will inadvertently break some hearts, so remember how it felt when someone else broke yours. You’ll eventually lose someone you thought you couldn’t live without and be disappointed by someone youve sacrificed for.   This is what happens when you open your heart and mind to the greatest joys of life. This is also what happens when you involve yourself in someones life with the hope of alleviating their problems and in the end youre neither appreciated or valued. Commit yourself to doing the right thing with low expectations from others and youll reduce the intensity, duration and extent to which you get hurt. Take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you’ve never been hurt. Don’t be afraid that your days will end in pain, be afraid they will never begin with honesty and love. Life is too short to let it pass by. Open your heart and mind and live it to the fullest! You Have Intrinsic Value Grow accustomed to the idea that you dont need everyone to like you. Realize that you have intrinsic value by the very fact that you exist. Recognize that you have a purpose in life and its your responsibility to discover what it is you can contribute to the world in a way no one else can. Accept the fact that not everyone is going to see your beauty even though its there. Stop being a people-pleaser all the time; because when you go around pleasing everyone but yourself, you are the one that gets hurt. Your value doesn’t decrease based on someone’s inability to see your worth.   It’s their loss, not yours.   Dont give so much of yourself to others that you end up completely losing yourself.   In the end you will know who truly loves you; they’re the ones who respect you for who you are, and no matter what, they stand by your side.  Surround yourself with these people.  And try to  hang out with people who bring out your best! Appreciate What You Already Have   You will always be missing out on something. You simply can’t have it all. Thus it will always seem like something wonderful might be happening elsewhere. And that’s OK. Let it go, and realize you have everything right now.   The best in life isn’t somewhere else; it’s right where you are at this moment. You have to accept that some things will never be yours, and learn to value the things that are only yours. What you take for granted, someone else is praying for. Happiness never comes to those who don’t appreciate what they already have. Don’t wait until what you HAVE becomes what you HAD. Pause and appreciate  all the good things you have in your life right now, as they are happening. Help Others Without Expectations As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “The purpose of life is not to simply be happy.   It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.” Happiness doesn’t come through selfishness, but through selflessness. Kindness you give out will come back around. Greet people with a smile. Offer encouragement. Identify good traits in others and communicate your positive thoughts to that person. Compliment people often and with sincerity. Notice other peoples progress, cheer them on, and help them see their own greatness. Look for the goodness in others and focus on their virtues. Speak about other peoples virtues rather than their flaws.  The more happiness you help others find in life, the more happiness you will find. Take Full Responsibility for Your Own Happiness Alvin Wong was recently said to be the happiest man in America according to a Gallup poll. Wong says that having humility is the key to his happiness. “Humility teaches me that I don’t know everything, that I’m not the most important person,” he said.  He is polite, restrained and willing to give the other person the benefit of the doubt. “If you don’t listen, you’re not going to learn anything.” Wong follows the belief system that your heaven or hell is made here on earth by the deeds you do,” he said. “People will miss you or not miss you. Their thoughts about you are how you are remembered. If that doesn’t keep you grounded, I don’t know what will.” Wong’s happiness is grounded in his straightforward but optimistic view of setbacks, from high school breakups to deaths in the family to the time he nearly died as a 6-month-old during the Pearl Harbor attacks. He seldom focuses on negative experiences. “I guess my attitude has always been, you’ve got to go forward,” he said. “When you have a failure, when you have something that happens to you that is traumatic, what you have to do is learn from it, but move on and not let that happen again.” The happiest people commit themselves to caring for themselves and exercising these happy muscles. Happy people are more inclined to balance taking time for themselves and doing for others. They don’t consider themselves martyrs and are willing to accept their imperfections. They tend to let things go more easily than others and take themselves a bit less seriously when they make a mistake. Happy people are able to embrace their limitations and seek help from others for support and counsel on how to address problems. They don’t focus on trying to be perfect or on trying to portray themselves as perfect. They don’t crave attention nor do they need   constant approval from others in order to recognize their own self-worth. The happiest people have good self-esteem, set healthy boundaries with others and focus on what they can change not on what’s outside of their control. Remember, happiness comes from your own choices and actions. Waiting for someone else to make you happy is the best way to be sad. The more you take responsibility for your past and present, the more you are able to create the future you seek. So stop blaming others for what you have or don’t have, or for what you feel or don’t feel. When you blame others for what you’re going through, you deny responsibility and perpetuate the problem.   Stop giving your power away and start taking responsibility for your life. Blaming is just another sorry excuse, and making excuses is the first step towards both misery and failure. As the Chernoffs say YOU, and only you, are responsible for your decisions; make a good one right now that your future self will thank you for. May it be choosing your friends, your partner in life, your career, lifestyle, or your community, be accountable for your choices in life. Dont wait for others to find you or for an opportunity to fall in your lap. Carpes Es DiumSeize the Day. Seek out those experiences and people that will offer you the life you dream of. If youre not sure of what you want, find a mentor or coach to help guide you. But dont wait for someone else to steer your life. Be your own captain on your journey through life! Take Action Now and Accept the Consequences Consider every day when you awake a real gift. Say to yourself, Im thankful to have a new day â€" a new beginning and today Im going to do something positive for myself and for someone else.   You have been given this day to use as you please.   You can waste it or you can use it for something worthwhile.  Laziness and procrastination lead to stagnation but action leads to happiness. Dont be afraid to confront great challenges. Its our challenges that make our life interesting and overcoming them makes life meaningful. Wisdom comes from the education derived from overcoming an obstacle. Seek wisdom and learn from all your experiences-both the joyful and difficult ones. See the Discomfort from Challenges as Opportunities for Growth Needless worry gives small things a big shadow.   In the end, you can either focus on what’s tearing you apart, or what’s holding you together.   You have to roll with life instead of against it. And sorry for spoiling the ending for you… but everything is going to be OK â€" you just need to learn a lesson or two first.  Don’t run from the realities of your present struggles. The pain and defeat contained within them are necessary to your long-term growth. Remember, there is a difference between encountering defeats and being defeated.   Nothing ever goes away until it teaches you what you need to know to grow. When you make a mistake, try to understand where you went wrong. Use the experience as a lesson for what not to do again and move on. Anticipate when you might face this challenge again and envision yourself doing the right thing. Take comfort in the fact that as long as youre alive you can improve yourself and correct a character flaw. Imagine the positive outcome that could come from fixing this flaw when it comes up again and even laugh at yourself for being human, messing up and then making a correction. To Do Something Meaningful, Accept the Possibility of Failing   If you are too afraid of failure, you can’t possibly do what needs to be done to succeed in living a fulfilling life.   The key is to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Comfort is a state of being in which to find rest and renewal for a short time; it is a dreary and dismal place to remain permanently. If you don’t challenge yourself on a regular basis, by taking small steps into unfamiliar territory, your abilities and effectiveness will become stale and weak. The reason life can be so rewarding is precisely because nothing is guaranteed.  Some of your best life experiences and opportunities will come to you only after you dare to lose. When your efforts are met with failure, you know you are on to something; because on the flip side of that failure is a real, substantial accomplishment that doesn’t come easy.   Your failed attempt is simply evidence that you are reaching higher.   And “higher” is always the best direction to travel in.  (Read Ramit Sethis Book, Ill Teach You to Be Rich). Sethi teaches that you should choose carefully whom you listen to about failure. Take advice from people who have accomplished what you want to accomplish. He says, seek out masters of their craft and study them. This way you could achieve success and even use a failure to succeed. Disappointments are Normal Down days and disappointments are completely normal, and not something you should feel guilty about having.   Happiness is never constant.   Surrendering to your sadness, or whatever negative emotion is trying to come to the surface, does not make you a bad person.   But remember, if you aren’t sincerely thankful for every smile; don’t be totally shocked by every tear. Keep things in perspective. Once you embrace unpleasant news, not as a negative but as evidence of a need for positive change, you’re learning from it and growing. Whatever life throws at you, even if it hurts, be strong and fight through it. Remember, strong walls shake but never collapse. Life always offers you another chance…  it’s called tomorrow. Learn to Start Anew   Holding on to what’s no longer there holds too many of us back. Some of us spend the majority of our lives recounting the past and letting it steer the course of the present. Don’t waste your time trying to live in another time and place. Let the past GO!   You must accept the end of something in order to begin to build something new. So close some old doors today.   Not because of pride, inability or egotism, but simply because you’ve entered each one of them in the past and realize that they lead to nowhere.  When we continue to repeat a story in our head, as all of us do, we eventually believe that story and embrace it â€" whether it empowers us or not.   So the question is:   Does your story empower you?   Don’t place your past mishaps on your mind, their weight may crush your current potential.   Instead, place them under your feet and use them as a platform to view the horizon. Remember, all things are difficult before they are easy. What matters the most is what you st art doing now. There’s an upside to taking risks and rethinking about uncertainty. If no one would take risks we wouldn’t have the printing press (the precursor to the internet), penicillin, semiconductor, optical lenses, refrigeration, gunpowder, the airplane, the automobile, the pill, the telephone, anesthesia, the assembly line and the combine harvester. No one would marry and certainly no one would dare to have children. Essentially, if no one took a risk to fail at attempting to do things differently, the world would still be in the dark ages. The risk takers who went out on their own challenged the status quo and sought to innovate were not crazy, insensible people. Their success came from taking risks and being persistent with their ideas with courage to accept a failure and to learn from it. This kind of sensible risk taking will allow you to manage a great success, a mild success and a total blow out failure. Smart risk taking requires taking a leap based on having a realistic gauge of market demand and being aware that with every risk there’s the possibility for failure. Those who take smart risks recognize that taking risk is an essential as part of the journey towards creating something new and valuable in life.  If companies and individuals seek complacency and play it safe all the time, theyll miss opportunities to experience growth and to make a contribution to the world. Either extreme, being reckless or playing it safe all the time are both flawed strategies for life. It’s somewhere in the middle that we find challenge, growth, newness, possibility for correction and an improved world.

3 Worst Cash-Flow Mistakes Businesses Make

3 Worst Cash-Flow Mistakes Businesses Make One of the most important parts of running a business is making sure you have a positive cash-flow which will allow your business to run and operate smoothly. However, many business owners still have difficulties when trying to handle this integral task. Whether your troubles with cash-flow happen because of poor management or the cyclical nature of the field your business operates is, the ultimate results will be the same, your business will begin to struggle and may ultimately fail. In fact, cash-flow is the number one reason businesses fail with as many as 82% of businesses failing because of cash-flow related issues. With that in mind, it should be apparent that you have to do everything within your power to maintain positive cash- flow. To help you out, today we are going to take a look at three worst cash-flow mistakes businesses make and how to fix them. 1. Being passive about your past-due receivables Let’s start off simple. Your cash-flow will ultimately depend on the money you receive from your customers, so if they aren’t paying you on time, you can start really struggling to keep things under control. A common mistake most businesses make is just letting their past-due receivables slide unnoticed as they don’t want to make a hassle or jeopardize their relationships with the customer. While this can be sensible in certain cases, if people start noticing that you don’t have any particular penalties for them paying you late, they will most likely start abusing your generosity. Because of this, you should make sure that you provide them with adequate incentives for paying you early, such as small but meaningful discounts. However, you should also put penalties in place that will increase the price if they don’t pay on time. While these two tools put together will definitely better your situation, sometimes they just wont be enough. Luckily there are a few alternative options you can use to aid you. Most notably, you can look for outside help through different financing options, which will help you get the money you are owed immediately. For example, invoice finance can allow you to get a quick loan secured against your outstanding invoices and receive up to 95% of the money you are owed within a 24 hour period, with the rest becoming available when the invoice is finally fully paid. This and other similar methods are a great way to ensure your business doesn’t struggle with cash-flow while at the same time not endangering the relationships with your customers. 2. Not planning ahead with realistic expectations Another big mistakes businesses tend to make is not planning their finances ahead of time with realistic expectations, or for that matter, not planning at all. While trying to plan out your finances can be really challenging because of the many unpredictable factors that can impact your business it’s still a crucial process you have to take care of if you want to keep a healthy cash-flow. First of all, it will allow you to predict what your expenses will be with reasonable accuracy, which will allow you to locate them and minimise them or completely eliminate the unneeded ones, freeing up additional capital which will have a positive impact on your cash-flow. With that being said, it’s also very important to keep an objective look at your predictions, especially when it comes to predicted sales. It’s always better to undervalue your future income as it will give you time to find ways to deal with the problem, instead of putting you in a bad situation unprepared. 3. Ignoring the importance of an emergency fund Even if you do everything that’s within your power to maintain a healthy cash-flow, sometimes it just won’t be enough, and sadly that’s the reality of the business world. Because of this, you should always aim to have an emergency fund which will help you get through those difficult times. While this can seem somewhat self-evident, a lot of businesses, especially new ones, tend to ignore the importance of an emergency fund and choose to put all of their money into the business in order to encourage growth, which more often than not ends up costing them everything. There are just too many unpredictable factors that can impact cash-flow and even if things look great today, the tides can drastically shift in a matter of days. It’s highly recommended that you keep an emergency account balance equivalent to at least two months of operating expenses, which should be enough to help you get through the rough patch. Conclusion While the mistakes listed here are only a few of many that businesses tend to make, correcting them will definitely put you on the right path towards a healthy cash-flow which will allow you to establish a solid foundation from which you can further grow and expand your business.
