Personal SWOT analysis – An Exercise

2017-05-31T03:35:00.001-07:00

SWOT analysis is acronym for Strength , Weakness , Opportunities and Threats. Generally good companies do the SWOT analysis before launching a new product or service in the market. It is a very useful exercise.

But SWOT analysis is not limited to product or service only. It is also applicable to an individual also.

The Four parameters of SWOT can easily guide you to start your career or can help you in the advancement of your career ladder.

How?

Take a paper and pen.

Write down your strength- In which area you are good or have the command. It might be you are good listener, good orator, you can be good in organizing the things, you have no hesitation in taking the initiative, you are good in convincing the people, you can be good in communication etc. These all are your personal traits which make your aura.

Then comes the Weakness. Judge yourself honestly. You cannot be master in everything. Weakness is not a liability , but it the area of improvements which actually stops you in many instances. Weakness can be – you are not a good listener , you lose your tamper easily , you can be disorganized , you do not feel comfortable to address the audience , you afraid from taking the new challenges, not interested in learning new things , not good in presenting the things in spite of having the full knowledge etc.

The Strength and Weakness are the internal traits or assets of a person.

Opportunities and Threats are in second category – External factors which influence you while deciding your career or advancement.

Opportunities : wherever you are today , because of your strength and weakness. But if you want to scale the heights of success , you have to sense or smell the areas of opportunities which is lies in your area. Sense them , and if you have a hawk eye, you can easily identify these opportunities and cash them in right time.

Threats : Identify the areas which are threats for you. It might be possible that some degree or training is stopping you in the path of advancement of your career. Some skills which are essential but you have no knowledge about them. This also can be one threat - the area chosen by you have very limited and not have a long term future etc.

Do your introspection and prepare your SWOT. Start working to improve your weakness and threats.

A great lesson for the corporate from the success of “ Patanjali” and “ Bahuballi Movie”

2017-05-14T23:31:00.001-07:00

Patanjali , led by Baba Raamdev recorded the 100% growth from the previous financial year to the next Financial year, from 5000 crore to 10000 crore.

Bahuballi , a film by Director S S Rajmouli is minting the huge money from its first part- Bahuballi – The Beginning to Second part- Bahuballi – the conclusion. It has already minted more than 1300 Crore from just in 15 days of its release and still doing well at box office.

What is the common between the successes of these two ?

A good vision with team work can lead you in a great success path.
You have to believe in your products first and have a great patience to deal with it.
India is a huge market and if you capture its nerves, the business is yours.
If your products have strength, there is no need of fancy advertisements.
If you know the basics of business, you can be successful.
Be your own brand ambassador and don’t hire the fancy or other celebrity to promote your products. You are enough to promote your business.
Baba Ramdev and S S Rajmouli always create a hype and curiosity among their target audiences.
Makes the things simple and mass appealing.
Relate your products with your tradition.
Commitment, dedication and sacrifice from the employees are the key to get success in a project.

This is my personal opinion regarding the success of Patanjali and Bahuballi.

Corporate lessons from this election -2017- UP, Uttrakhand, Goa, Manipur and Punjab

2017-03-17T01:35:00.001-07:00

The election in five states – UP, Uttrakhand , Punjab , Manipur and Goa has over and results has been declared. Total 690 seats were in stake in these five states and BJP with their alliances won 434 seats in these states . This means BJP won 63% of seats and Lotus blossoms everywhere.

Understand the ground reality and make a strong plan to achieve your goal. BJP booth level strategies worked well in Uttar Pradesh and have a charismatic face of Modi Ji.
Alliance should be made with perfect partner. Samajwadi party did alliance with Congress who was already in bad shape in UP and this alliance did not work for Akhilesh Yadav in UP. BJP targeted this alliance badly.
Focus on strength and possibility. BJP totally ignore the election in Punjab as they knew they have lost the battle before the election and anti- incumbency wave against the akali dal is much stronger than they assume.
BJP entered into the politics of Eastern state. First they conquered Assam and now , entered successfully in Manipur.
They faced the anti incumbency in GOA also but when the find an opportunity of forming government, they did it successfully.
Campaign with your star performer.

The basic lessons learnt from this election are :

Do your SWOT well.
Focus on your strength.
Understand your plan well and execute this perfectly.
Keep attacking your opponents.
Explore the new opportunities also.
Leader should be followed everywhere.

Happy New Year and let us welcome 2016. On this Occasion , I want to present some lines from my book , " Happiness 1.1 Reloaded "

Swami Vivekananda said, “All power is within you; you can do anything and everything. Believe in that, do not believe that you are weak; do not believe that you are half-crazy lunatics, as most of us do nowadays. You can do anything and everything, without even the guidance of any one. Stand up and express the divinity within you.”

Be happy. Face the odds of life with a broad smile and say, “You have no power to make me unhappy and I will definitely handle it.”

I want to conclude this with my favorite quote of Marty Robbins, “Every day is a good day to be alive whether the sun is shining or not” and actually there are many reasons in a day to be happy. Begin the new never ending chapter of your life – The chapter of Happiness."

One Page from my book - Happiness 1.1 Reloaded

2015-12-21T21:12:00.000-08:00

We all are professional here and I know we all are busy but if we have no time to take our food properly which is absolute necessity to build our health, and then please rethink and give time to it. In our relations, where we expect a lot from others, we have no time to talk to them. I suggest manage your time well and spent quality time. Spare some time for yourself where you think about you and talk, and energize yourself. When you want to cry, cry alone. It will really release the pressure from you. Pat yourself for good things and criticize yourself for bad. Life is pretty simple, don’t make it complicated. Set your priorities and go one by one for it.

Believe me; we made our life complicated because we are always busy in analyzing the life. Every time we start thinking - why this? How this? When this?

When I was leaving my home 15 years back from mountains to Delhi, my mother gave me a suggestion that whatever the situation would occur in front of me, face it with a smile and always keep myself happy. Whatever I will do, do it with perfect honesty, dedication and faith in God and also keep my five senses in control. Whenever I feel low, I remember my mother saying to me. This really helps me a lot to keep me motivated and happy.

Happiness is one thing which we seek and chase for all our life and surprisingly this is all around us.

What is happiness? Is it a state of mind or something else? How can we be happy in our life? Is there any formula? Although we all know the basics of happiness very well, but why do we forget these in our life?

This is a question whose answer we search in our whole life. Some people get the answer and some don’t.

We know the basics of happiness however we forget these basics in our daily life due to work pressure, worries about future and other reasons. We need to remember these basics always. This is the reason, “Happiness 1.1 Reloaded” idea born and I tried to summarize the basics to my reader to keep them motivated always.

Some Lines from my book - Happiness 1.1 Reloaded ..........

They real mantra or talisman of happiness is – Stay positive and be positive. Remember, “It shall Pass” and accept it.

Every situation will pass as the time passes. There is nothing permanent in this world. Believe me – we all are living in a rented house for a fixed tenure. Then what is worry? Enjoy life as it comes. Come out from any rough situation by yourself. Don’t expect that somebody will come and will take you out from this situation. It is you, only you who can bring out of yourself from any situation.

Say yourself “I am Happy.”

Whatever is happening with me…? It is going to be better. I was happy; am Happy and will happy.

Say cheers to life and live life as it comes. This gifted life is to enjoy and to be happy.

Life is just another name of hope and opportunities. We never know by which form happiness is coming to your way.
