Seven Tips: On How To Read Between The Lines

YES BOSS
A commonly used phrase by employees. Such employees don’t have an opinion of their own; they simply say “yes” to anything and everything, without giving it a thought. Any project given by their boss is affirmed with a “Yes Boss.” Times have changed.

Is our conditioned response to “How are you doing?” Whether we are doing great or things are not going well, we just have the same response. Break out from the “I am fine” pattern and be your true self.

CHALNE DE (LET IT BE)
A phrase which essentially means to push things beyond their age/time. One has to understand that there are certain things that have a start time and an end point, and pushing things beyond their time can be painful for you and for others.

WE WILL GET BACK TO YOU
Is a phrase with a twisted meaning. One meaning is to genuinely get back and the other is a subtle message that “We are done, don’t bother us.” Sales professionals and interview candidates know how it feels when they hear this phrase.

If we can make time for checking our social networks, we can make time for anything. If something is a priority it will be taken care of,and if it’s not, we will always find reasons to rationalize.

VERY VERY URGENT
We have diluted the meaning of the word “urgent,” which actually means “something that requires immediate action.” But for many of us everything is urgent; we have lost the meaning of the word. This is a sure sign of lack of prioritization. Let only one thing be urgent, if it is!
