You get a second, every second.

What you do with it is up to you!

I suggest, own it and make the best out of it.

How to actually make money online?

2017-09-14T02:15:00.002+04:00

I've done various nights on this topic. Plenty blogs and resources point you in all directions like freelance your skill, publish your work on stock photography sites and more.

While most of these require you to be skillful, here's a list I've come up with that just demands your time, and anyone can make money online. They work... been there, done that...

YouGov Surveys

YouGov is an international Internet-based market research firm, HQ in UK and operates in Europe, North America, Middle East and Asia-Pacific. They send out consumer surveys regularly and in return offer you points on completing each survey. Once you accumulate certain points, you can either redeem cash or donate the equivalent amount to charity. So whether you want to help yourself or help others in need, try YouGov and start making points.

TaskSpotting

This is a mobile app available on Google Play and the App Store, Once you have it, you can find 'missions' and 'surveys' to complete. Each mission has a monetary reward, and the more missions you complete, the more access the spotters get to exclusive and higher rewarding tasks. Here's the link to iTunes App Store.

Forex Trading

This is a decentralized global market where currencies are traded and hence the name Forex or Foreign Exchange. More than $5 trillion is traded on a daily basis on forex markets and you could just take a slice out. To start trading on the forex market, you need to sign up with a broker. Signing up is free. You will have to undergo a verification process to prove your identity (lately anything that involves money requires identification). A minimum deposit of $200 is necessary for you to be able to take live trades and make money. Go ahead, give it a shot.

21.co

Here's another one I'm throwing into this post where you can make the hottest crypto-currency; Bitcoin. Create your profile on 21.co to answer questions and complete tasks to get paid in Bitcoins. Just navigate to 21.co to create your profile using your Facebook ID and start receiving tasks.

I'm still exploring more ways online as this is the easiest to get started. All you need is a laptop and an internet connection and you have the world under your fingers. I'll update this list if I come across other interesting avenues in the future.

Act for your Bitcoins

2017-09-02T03:19:00.000+04:00

Seth's blog on What you know vs. what you do is a clear indication of how important it is to take action. While that was a huge financial gain missed, let me tell you how you can still build your digital currency stack (or crypto-currency).

There are various digital currencies and if you Google, you'll get an idea. This post however, is not to educate you about it, I'm going to tell you how to make 3 cryptos.

You would need to first create your online wallets for Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoin.

Secondly, create your account at FaucetHub.io. This portal is like a dashboard where you can keep a track of all digital currencies you've made.

So here you go!

How to make Bitcoins?

There are online faucets using which you can make bitcoins. I'm listing 2 faucets here:

1. BTC for Clicks
2. BitLucky

How to make Litecoins?

This is another digital currency. You can make Litecoins using the below 3 faucets:

1. ForumCoin.win for Litecoin
2. Litecoin Faucet
3. xFauce for Litecoin

How to make Dogecoins?

Use these 4 faucets to make Dogecoins:

1. Forumcoin.win for Dogecoin
2. xFaucet for Dogecoin
3. Doge Faucet
4. Pentafaucet for Dogecoin

Will any of this make you a millionaire?

I would ask you to read Seth's blog I shared at the beginning of the post. Are you going to act yet?

Praise Often

2017-08-08T11:32:00.002+04:00

Don’t just appreciate her intelligence, praise her efforts.

Don’t just applaud her talent, praise her persistence.

Don’t just admire her abilities, praise her resilience in the face of obstacles.

Don’t just acknowledge a successful outcome, reward her for trying.

Because a successful outcome is only a result of bouncing back every time when things go wrong.

I'm winning a medal

2016-08-07T12:54:00.000+04:00

There is no right side or wrong side. Its only my side.

Foot over foot, me before you, honk before you see and navigate through like you don't see.

Every single person had a goal; to win a trophy at the destination, and so was mine.

Driving down Delhi roads was one of a kind experience.

What are we talking about again?

2016-07-04T01:53:00.000+04:00

I usually define "internal meetings" as men going into a room with less significant objectives and coming out with zero outcome.

Meetings are more of a culture of the organization. To make it make sound corporate like. To make simple, sizable. To pen down number of hours worked, at the end of the week.

As Seth Godin says, "Meeting is a group of people sitting in a circle waiting for someone else to take responsibility".

Instead, have a "stand up". People think more quickly and get less distracted standing up.

The real school

2016-06-13T02:08:00.000+04:00

When you pick a book and start to read, you've begin your schooling.

During the course, you discover the books you like to read and books that don't interest you. The more you read books of your interest, you start to discover oneself.

Here's the hint: read a ton of books that you didn't choose for yourself or walk into a library.

Knock Knock

2016-03-24T12:32:00.000+04:00

And there was no response. I kept knocking and wasn't hearing anything back.

But like they say, "the fortune is in the follow-up."

You want to get meetings that others don't?
Knock again!

As with friendships, business relationships need time to thrive..
Knock once again! ....... until you get the job done!

Your job here is a response to, knock knock!

And in an instant

2015-11-30T02:57:00.000+04:00

Pick up your mobile and call an ex-collegue.

Start a conversation with a stranger.

Walk into your director's cabin and give him a business update.

Message your friend and ask her to join you for a coffee.

Do it over and over again, and in an instant you begin to connect.

What's with this day?

2014-08-03T12:25:00.000+04:00

While some are just getting out of bed, others are rushing to their workplace.
While some are driving their way out of traffic congestion, others have recovered from their weekend party. While some are in a meeting with the client, its just another Sunday for others.

But there's something buzzing around..... buzzing around in your neighborhood, among your friends, all over the globe.

To add to that buzz here is me wishing you all a very Happy Friendship Day.

To all those who have left a foot print in my life, I value them all.

Don't trade the money, trade the market

2014-01-27T17:54:00.002+04:00

"Bulls" and "bears", "surged" and "plunged", you've heard these enough times and often.

If you want to achieve financial success, the fact is, the market is most effective in helping people achieve their financial goals. By being careful, considerate and wise you can beat the street to yield lifetime of financial security.

Two major markets you can trade in are:

Forex market
Stock market

The Forex market is where banks, businesses, governments, investors and traders come to exchange and speculate on currencies. The Forex market is also one of the largest and most liquid market in the world with an average daily turnover of $4 trillion.

To be a successful trader in forex you need a trading strategy (like price action trading) and a discipline.

The stock market on the other hand provides capital resources for corporations that seek to expand their operations and finance their growth. If you invest in these companies, you help them expand and prosper. At the same time you have the chance to make a profit on your investment.

To read more about the stock markets, no matter what level of investment knowledge you are at, I recommend If you're clueless about the stock market and you want to know more by Seth Godin.

The worst you can do

2013-11-26T14:02:00.000+04:00

is nothing.

And nothing will change for you. When did your spouse / boss / teacher / friend become responsible for your dreams?

On the contrary, if you are doing your best, only your boss might care (may be not). If you are the best, the world cares.

The science behind repeating

2013-11-25T21:52:00.000+04:00

When you do it over and over again and yet again, you tend to master it. And eventually, you perfect it.

It's true for writing as it is for maneuvering a plane, conceive new ideas or in sales. The more you do, the better you become. Alas, many still wake up to be a cog in a cubicle.

I would like to encourage you to:

Post a blog
Spread an idea
Connect with a person in the lift
Become aware
Show curiosity
Be generous
Learn something you did not know
Keep moving
And do it often

because the science of repeat is at work.

It can never be learnt

2013-11-21T14:49:00.000+04:00

because it can never be taught.

You can only share it with another human or you can gain from your own; Experience!

It doesn't matter what you do

2013-11-14T10:25:00.000+04:00

A graphic designer is good at what she does, which is create visually captivating outcome of a project. If you want a piece of software, you approach a computer geek because she knows what program to write.

In this connection economy, it's easier now than ever before to find the right apparatus, follow instructions and find people who are doing what you want get done. So how you do it, doesn't matter either.

I recommend you read the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. There is a reason why the book starts with "think" in the title instead of "work hard". The fact that having a to-do list and crossing items off doesn't make you wealthy.

No, it's not what you do that has to change, it's how you think that needs to change. It begins there and it doesn't need to end.

We need more artists

2013-09-26T18:28:00.000+04:00

Talking is easy but connecting is art.
Selling is easy but generosity is art.
Taking a picture is easy but telling a story is art.
Following is easy, leading is an art.

Art is when no one is watching us, it is when we put our best work on the desk. You were a painter at 4, a singer when you turned 7 and a dancer at age 11.

What happened?

Don't lie or don't be cute

2013-08-17T01:40:00.000+04:00

We all know someone in our lives that we haven't met or talked over the phone in years and every time you receive a message from them on your graduation day or your birthday or when they read your tweet or something that reminded them about you, they always write, "I meant to call you, but I couldn't because" [add your story].

It's true that if you can do what you promise, on time or even when you had time and without making a fuss, we will notice.

Sorry if I sound upset, but I am. The world has changed completely. Just be honest.

What can you make?

2013-04-18T15:54:00.000+04:00

Mahatma Gandhi was one of the many great examples who led masses by example.

Good intentions are not enough an aid to be successful. No, they alone do not survive an encounter with reality. You or your team always need to back it up with great execution.

Knowledge, vision, planning, persistence, belief and decision making are some of the ingredients of what you perceive in making.

Trickle by trickle you can make a difference.

Spot on

2012-12-23T13:01:00.002+04:00

This really caught my eye. IndiGo Air have nailed it with their advertisement.

They have kept it really simple yet creative and it conveys.

The phrase "because it's always about them", is so true. Tweet this

Ways to convey and thank

2012-08-14T18:53:00.000+04:00

Certainly the easiest way to convey your message is via facebook. My friends find this simple.

Whatsapp, iMessage, email, SMS or a call are a few other ways. These are pretty direct and for those who are personally connected to me.

And of course, you can always meet me in person. This works out best for friends who are living in a reachable mile.

It has been a good run so far. I had a great day and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thanks guys (friends and family), for your kind wishes all through the day and making it so special.

Self Marketing

2012-08-11T16:16:00.003+04:00

I am not a good writer.
I can't do the math.
I don't know how to drive.
I can't reduce my weight.
Money slips through my fingers.
I can't start a business.
I can't make good friends.
I am stubborn.
I can't see without my glasses.
I'm always late. I can't reach on time.
I don't know to dance.
I hate my boss.
My knee hurts, I can't run.
It's too risky.
I can never learn this.

or

I can, I will, I'll ask, I'll learn, I'll create, I'll do, I'll achieve, I'll finish.......

What have you been selling yourself ?

Shorter and smarter

2012-08-08T10:45:00.000+04:00

A lot more worth is being conveyed in shorter movies, shorter presentations, shorter advertisements, shorter discussions...

Oh I see, now you go and shorten what you are doing? Did you miss 'smarter'?

Stop!

2012-07-06T19:09:00.000+04:00

Stop scrolling down your facebook news feed first thing in the morning!!

Stop chatting up with friends just to chat!!

Stop subscribing to more and more rss feeds!!

Stop watching television!!

Stop reading every email you receive in your inbox!!

Stop talking about people that don't have any significance in your life!!

Stop worrying about the politicians and their doings!!

Stop procrastinating!!

Stop ....... Stop .......

Stop .......

Some things are just not important now, and they never will be.

What is wrong about being wrong?

2012-06-13T15:33:00.000+04:00

Nothing!

Now that you know you are wrong and if you don't put forward a responsible act, Everything is!

P.S. Most creative people have almost always been wrong at first.

Be here now

2012-03-21T23:34:00.000+04:00

A book I came across written by Ram Dass - Be Here Now. He talks about four noble truths from Buddha.

Time and suffering Anything that is in time is going to pass away because time passes away. That is the cause of suffering.

Desire and craving Crave not temporal things. Beauty, achievements, possessions are temporary. Desiring that? How Poignant!

Give up attachment Get un-attach and get un-stuck. Attachments keep you stuck.

Get your life straight Do your work. Do everything you've got to do. Watch your speech, your thoughts, your environment, your calmness and stay calmcentric.

Robert Kiyosaki had a different version of this. That is to "Mind your own business!"

Why all this? We all know about this company who mastered consumer technology and is a leader in creativity, and we very well know the celebrity founder of Apple, Steve Jobs. He had a spiritual side too.

Past and future instills fear, be here now!
