Live in the MOMENT..

We live in the "Moments"..

How many times you feel that you just can't get rid of your worst habit ? How many times you feel that you just can't achieve the BIIIIIGGG goal given to you by your boss? How many times you feel that you just CAN NOT do SOMETHING, you lose your hopes and break down into pieces...? There is a looooooong list of similar situations..and the solution to all of them is just to realize that we LIVE IN THE MOMENTS..

It happens a lot of time when you just start doing things that you really should not be doing for instance; negative thoughts, but you keep on doing them and spend hours on the same thing. If we just realize that, we have to fight just that MOMENT when that very thought hits your mind and you start following it unintentionally..only that MOMENT you have to be strong and fight with that thought & after that MOMENT you will realize that you have won the war that was apparently insurmountable but you just did that..Because, we believe or not,  we live in the MOMENTS!

Sometimes it happens that we become a real victim of one little moment..When you have a great day at workplace, everything goes just like you planned and one rude client on the telephone turns you off all of sudden..WHY? it is because you just lose yourself to that very MOMENT when the rude client was yelling at you or said something disrespectful..

It 'd be a Great triumph if we learn to live the moments..if we learn to left all the outputs of the moment in that particular moment.. This is not something IMPRACTICAL..this is something that needs a real good practice!

There are a lot of ways to do so, having a bad thought? Just get up and get yourself busy somewhere else. Initial few seconds, that thought will keep coming back to you but if you stand firm against it..you will win the moment :-)! 

You just need to find out your way of fighting with them and I'm sure there will be lot of ways..just find 'em :-)!

I say, "Right now" is the very first "Moment" of your Day :-)!

A little bit of "Automation" & a little bit of "Real Time Conversation" - My SM Strategy :-)

Finally..my life on Social Media has become much easier.

The very initial days of my professional life when I started to do Social Media Marketing for my employer, life was bit hectic. I kept on "WASTING" my time , thinking what to post, what to not. But for getting the answer I spend a lot of time on CLICKING ,CLICKING on various websites and social media pages that what like-minded people are doing on their social media networks and in doing so, I found lots of interesting blogs, tutorials on Social Media Marketing. I must say, this research has proven to be so effective. Gradually, I have started to find out the ways and tools that can help me to be more productive on Social Media and I'm still digging more and more.

One such strategy is to bring "Automation" in your social media activities. Well, YES, I surely know that Social media is more about ENGAGING people rather than keep on posting things that might not be of their interest. But the model I find effective to my nature of business is "little bit of Automation and little bit of real time Conversation"..

www.ping.fm, is a platform through which you can post your status updates at one time to your all social media networks. You can synchronize your Linkedin, facebook, twitter, myspace, stumbleupon, wordpress to name a few,  accounts and post your status one time on ping.fm and it will be posted everywhere. Time saving, no?:-)

I am personally fond of www.Hootsuite.com. A place that has made my life soooooo easy:-). Similar to ping.fm, you can synchronize your all accounts at one place. Not only that, you can schedule your future posts and keep an eye on analytic too. Because Hootsuite.com will automatically update your posts to your network at the selected time. What a life! :-)

So, for social media networks like twitter and facebook, I am using these 2 tools but for linkedin majority of the time I have to be in real time conversation with the leads and clients. I would like to mentioned Amy Portfield here, her free video training sessions have really helped me out and still they are helping. Thanks to a very good friend of mine, Muadassir Malik, who created base of my Social Media Skills. I'm still in process of learning more and more and I make sure to share my learning with my friends. Because Social Media is all about SHARING :-)
