Smile:-). That is the first step towards building a better personality. When we smile, the person before us, smiles. When we frown and look distracted, the person before you, cannot care less-if you are angry, hungry, or lost in your own world. Once you start smiling, you will see the change. Even a Govt. official, doing his on her job mechanically, will be prompted to process your application (whatever it is) well and to your satisfaction. The other thing I have noticed in my life is to maintain a positive outlook towards everything. What if you have missed this flight or bus? What if the job you applied for, does not happen? What if the money you expect ,does not arrive on time, or does not arrive at all? You will realize that everything happens for the best. And you will notice or appreciate that, instead of the job you cherished, you got something else better. So in retrospect, everything happens for the best, clichéd though it may sound. When you are positive, appear positive, and behave positive, things will happen. You will feel light footed, your laptop bag won’t be that heavy on your shoulders, and the traffic is bearable :-). You come across as a strong personality-who does not worry about the mundane things in life, but looks ahead to achieve the greater things. Begin today. Begin to smile. Begin to be positive. Make people smile back at you. And don’t honk. It does not get you ahead in life any more than going round and round. In the end, we all reach our goals, if we follow the right steps, and not try to overtake someone else.

In our world of today, it is important to report news-be it on the television, print, the web or even hand held devices. People are all news driven, though not all of the informaation we hear is pleasant! Nonetheless, there is a growing need for young reporters who are at the site, to share second by second coverage. Those diligent at their work can rise up the media ladder very quickly.
