7 Cs of Success in Business and Life

Clarity:


Eighty percent of success comes from being clear on who you are, what you believe in and what you want. One must have to be clear about his own perceptions, own views and own thinking. Clarity comes from  your own personality. One sees the same which is in his frame of reference.Clarity of your thinking, clarity of your thoughts, being clear from every point so that the other person may feel your perception clearly.

Clarity is essential in effective communication. Factors such as unity, coherence, emphasis, subordination, pace, transition, point of view, conciseness, and correctness all influence the clarity of a piece of correspondence.

The style module provides detailed guidelines for clear writing. In addition, keep these tips in mind:
  • Keep your ideas focused around a single purpose. If the piece of correspondence has multiple purposes, establish a set organizational structure that is easy to follow and keep sections within the structure focused on one idea.
  • Find the most efficient language to convey the information.
  • Pare down your writing to its most essential elements. If necessary, rearrange sentences and eliminate excess words to make communication as direct as possible.
  • Plan ahead. Give yourself enough time to draft and revise for unity, coherence, emphasis, subordination, pace, transition, point of view, conciseness, and correctness .
Competence:

You can’t climb to the next rung on the ladder until you are excellent at what you do now. Being excelled in everything must be your task. The art of competence takes you higher. Being your own boss is one of the thing. Your proper guidelines to yourself matters. To compete through everything makes a clear pathway towards your goal.

Constraints:


Eighty percent of all obstacles to success come from within. Find out what is constraining in you or your company and deal with it. Knowing the hurdles and how to tackle them is the trick. Until and unless you are not well aware of what is happening and what can happen next, you can’t perceive yourself as properly ready person. 

Concentration:


Concentration, in chemistry is defined as the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture. The term can be applied to any kind of chemical mixture, but most frequently it refers to solutes in solutions. It can also be used to mean the action or power of focusing one’s attention or mental effort on one particular thing above all others.

The ability to focus on one thing single- minded and see it through until it’s done takes more character than anything else. Getting stick to your task with all your focus is the main thing. Your concentration is related with your mindset. As much you’ll concentrate the more you will be be near to your task. To focus sometimes gets tricky or difficult to manage, but your own mind can get through the condition and makes you able to get involved in your task.

Creativity:

So, the seven steps to having ideas are:

1-  Information Material:

Information is the raw material from which ideas are born. There are two types of relevant information, specific and general.

General information includes just about anything and everything, and gathering it is a lifelong exercise. It basically comes down to general knowledge and education, and can be cultivated through the usual channels: reading widely and having an active interest in life and the world around you, and in particular in people, how they live, what they think and how they behave.
Specific information is directly relevant to the topic in hand. You clearly need to get all the specific information you can lay your hands on. If you’re writing an advert for a product or service, you would expect the client to come up with most of it, although you’ll probably want to do some of you own research as well. If you’re writing a blog post on a topic, you’ll need to gather your information from far and wide.
These days, gathering information is a much faster process thanks to the internet. The down side to that is you’ll need to be judicious, and discard that which isn’t really relevant. Otherwise, you’re likely to get overwhelmed during step 2, where you have to sift the information.

2- Sift the information:

Work over the information, turning it over and around until you see how it all fits together. A direct pursuit of ‘meaning’ might be counterproductive. You may need to try a subtle approach, and sneak up on the topic, looking at things from various angles.

If small snippets of ideas start coming to you at this stage, write them down, even if they seem crazy.

The more you turn and sift the information, the better you understand it, the easier it will be to see and really understand the relationships. And the more ideas you will have.

3- Let the information bubble:

The next stage is to let the information bubble away for a while, keep it on simmer in your mind. You need to let your unconscious mind work on it for a time. It’s a good idea to do something else for a while, to stimulate your imagination and emotions. Try reading, listening to music, meditate, go for a walk, while your mind digests the facts. Or you could try the traditional approach – take a warm bath and wait for the eureka moment.

4- Let the ideas flow:

It’s at this stage that ideas should start to appear, as if from ‘nowhere’. This is where you hope for a ‘Eureka’ moment. The answer to your problem may appear to leap into your mind for no apparent reason.

But what if it doesn’t come? You keep going, writing down the best ideas you can come up with. If your ideas aren’t strong enough yet, don’t panic, because you’ll get to have another go at this part of the process. So take the very best ideas you can come up with, and move on to step five.

5-  Develop your idea :

Now your idea needs to be shaped and moulded, turned into something real. This where your writing skills come to the fore.

6- Share your idea:

Now show your idea to others and see what they think. They may be able to add to it and make it better. That may spark new ideas, and so the process becomes ever more creative.

7- Repeat Tasks:

If necessary, use the feedback you got in step 6, and add that to the information you gathered in step 1. Now repeat step 2, sifting the new information with the existing facts. Then repeat steps 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Keep it going, until you have the best idea you can come up with, or you hit the deadline, and have to go with what you have developed so far.
So, the good news is that you can learn to be more creative and have stronger ideas. You:
  • Gather the information
  • Sift it
  • Let it percolate
  • Let the ideas flow
  • Shape and mold the ideas
  • Share them with others
  • Put the feedback into the loop; and repeat the process to strengthen your ideas.
That’s the good news. The bad news is, despite what I said at the start about the importance of ideas – and don’t get me wrong they are important – despite that, the truth is that having ideas is the easy part of writing.
Courage:

Most in demand and least in supply, courage is the willingness to do the things you know are right. Your courage is your determination power, it brings you up and won’t let you go down. With courage you are able to reach your goal. Your surety  and willingness depends upon your courage. It indirectly link up with your aim, it makes you able to recreate and enhances your capability to do work and get succeeded. ‘It matters not how long we live but how’

Spouse my aim does not end there.I shall devote a part of my time in doing voluntary work in hospitals and charitable dispensaries.I would also devote a part of my time to the welfare of my country and my people.I would go to politics or any public work to serve my country and play my humble part in the social,political,religious and educational reforms,resulting in the progress of my country.Aim is very essential part of life,To conclude,aim of life fully suits to tendencies and ideas about life.I know in my heart that this is the path best fitted for me by nature and i would leave no stone upturned to attain it. The purpose of life should be a life of purpose.

Continuous learning:

Read, at the very least, one book a week on business to keep you miles ahead of the competition. This may be hard but it will test your desire to reach excellence/success?. Just as you eat and bathe, organize your time so you spend 30 minutes a day exploring emails, sending messages, going through websites, because like exercise, it’s the only way you can keep on top of technology. If you get away from it, you’ll lose your edge. Learning is a continuous process as no one is perfect. One learns throughout the life, at whatever position he is, whatever designation he has. Even man learns from his juniors. Can learn moral as well as social values and indirectly one do apply it in his routine life. Our whole society is involved in this process. In learning your education doesn’t matter, your experience and your own will power matters. It’s a bit time taking but once you get involved consider yourself within the natural process.

Importance of English Language in Education

1- English an International Language

Today we’re living in modern world, which is turning to a Global Village. People are moving on and  progressing day by day, we are becoming competitive, competition has changed ourselves from pleasure to busy life . Things have changed. People have become idealistic, optimistic, reality is far from their lives, their thoughts, mode of living, standards have changed. English language is becoming a necessity way of communication regarding business, jobs, skills, IT, even it has been involved in our personal lives. Our community feels proud for their speaking English language or conveying message in English language and forgetting their regional. For communication it’s the most powerful tool worldwide. For people in any field it is doing job of a linking chain.This has gain the status of most useful and commonly speaking language. In this digital age, computers can be seen populating everywhere. Eighty percent of computer data are processed and stored in English. Much satellite communication use English.

English is the most important world language today. No language is so widespread as language.The number of people who speak English now exceeds 400 million. In most of the developing countries in Asia and Africa, English is the medium of instruction.They also translate famous English books into their languages.They know that to the diffusion of Knowledge and for the progress of their countries in various fields, English is indispensable. English provides the readiest access to the cream of world scholarship and to the bulk of world trade.English is the key which opens doors to scientific and technical knowledge indispensable to the economic and political development of vast areas of the world. An increase in the knowledge of English can contribute directly to greater understanding among nations. It can also be the mean of assuring access to a treasure house of man’s knowledge about himself, about his political experiments, his philosophies and his inner human needs (US Government Publication ‘International Education and Cultural Exchange’. From the V-standard on words English is taught as a compulsory subject in China and Germany.

English one of the richest languages in the world. Its vocabulary is very large. About seventy per cent of world literature is in English. Two thirds of worlds correspondence is now written in English. One half of the world’s newspapers are printed in it and three quarters of the world broadcasts are delivered in English. If we learn English we shall be able to read the famous books written in all other languages. We can also enjoy the works of Shakespeare, Milton and other famous writers in English.
To a country like Pakistan English is indispensable. Ours is a developing country. She requires the latest development in the field of science and technology. To know these development English is necessary. We also require English for international negotiations.
In this age of space travel and the atom own ideal should not be national but international. The nations of the world now remain inter-dependent. In such a world how can we live on a solitary island? At present a large number of our people have been able to secure employment abroad. They studies their subjects in our regional language, they would have been constrained to live in Pakistan. It can thus be seen that English has mitigated the acuteness of the unemployment in our country.
What should be the medium of instruction at our universities? This is often discussed, some educationists think that we must have regional languages as the medium of instruction, some others argue that it will be unwise if we change the medium,
We admit, if instruction is imparted to the student in the regional language , he will understand it easily. We have no objection to continuing the regional languages at schools.
But the duties and responsibilities of universities are different from those of school. One of the important tasks of a university is to promote research and make the country go ahead in al branches of knowledge. A university stands for the adventure of ideas and for the search for truth, it should welcome knowledge and spread it by teaching and publishing books on various subjects. For research and the teaching of various subjects there is paucity of books in our language. But there are plenty of books in English on these subjects.
If the regional language is used as the medium of instruction, standard of efficiency will go down in administration, industry, the professions and even in the universities themselves. It would also mean a permanent set back to the process of national integration.
The future of English is not bright in north. It will be unjust if the younger generation is deprived of a language that makes one quite at home in any part of the world. The study of English will enrich our regional languages.
Our people should get rid of their hatred for English and realize the great service this opulent language has been rendering since it was introduced in our country in the last century. It is the window on the rest of the world.

We do not, however, advocate the retention of English for a very long time. When we achieve economic self-sufficiency, we can dispense with English. Even then those who wish to learn it may not be denied the opportunity of doing so.
Scientists have found out that five thousand newspapers, more than half of the newspapers published in the world, are published in English. Even in many countries where English is a minority language, there is still at least one newspaper in English. It can allow you to understand people all over around the world, gain knowledge from new technologies, and connect your understandings while traveling from places to places. English Language is used in two major ways:

Importance For Job Seekers:


For people who are seeking jobs or are already concerned with their jobs as well as business persons. For all such people command on English language is very much necessary. For employees their salary depends upon their communication and handling power more than their work. Hence knowing Language is a powerful tool.                                                                                                                                                                                            Written Communication:English is the most used language which is written world-widely. In written, it’s the most effective and precise way. It should have correctness, concreteness, clarity, courtesy in it. One should maintain a clear degree, using words from dictionary doesn’t mean that you have a good vocabulary. You should know the strategy ‘When to use, and how to use’. Short and clear statements must be used. Write in a specific language is a tricky task and for that purpose you must have to improve your tenses as well as a good vocabulary is required. You should read more novels, digests, newspaper, watch subtitles of movie carefully. Use a dictionary for difficult words as well as memorize them.

Verbal Communication:

While communicating you need to speak clearly, paying attention to your tone and pitch. Ensure that you don’t mumble or recite your points again and again, it seems unimpressive and the listener take you as nerd. You should be sure about your logic, facts and figures. Modulate your tone within the context of the topic. Ensure that you do not ramble or recite your points, as it may seem very unimpressive, which might also project you as unintelligent.  Make sure that you are speaking effortlessly, preferably at a slow pace and not just uttering what you have memorized.Your talking styles matters, and it should be frank and confident along with accuracy.

Listening Skill:

Good communicators know the importance of listening. They will tell you that listening is more important than even speaking. While in a conversation, if you do not listen carefully to what others are speaking, it will appear as if you are simply trying to put your point of view only and trying to dominate others, which might project you as very arrogant. This at times may prove a pitfall for you. Resist distractions and encourage the speaker. A good listener has the power to create a good audience, so try to maximize your audience and pay regard to what they say.

The demand for English Language is getting enhanced day by day, in European countries they use the same, but in Eastern countries like Pakistan, Asia, India people with high and effective vocabulary and accent are preferred more. People with good English as a skill get more chances to get success and have appealing resume. In first impression, they create their good image. The people who are not aware of it, have to face many problems. Improving your communication comes with regular practice.

As proven, ‘Practice makes a man perfect’. No matter how intelligent you are, your communication skill is the only attribute that convince your listener or reader. Many courses like IELTS and TOEFL etc are recommended but all is about your own will. but some people are not able to do such courses, for them I’d recommend to buy CD’s of English language and practice. To write at your own as well as try to speak in front of others. Good vocabulary usage via having a dictionary is a great source.
