How to have a positive attitude?

What is positive attitude?

                       A dead end problem is put before a group of persons(say10 persons).Definitely each and everyone will be having different views on the problem but only 2 from that group will find solutions for it and other 2 will try their level best in arriving at the solution and the rest 6 will say  "PROBLEMS ARE ALWAYS PROBLEMS,THESE CANNOT BE SOLVED AT ALL,LEAVE IT AND SEE YOUR WORK".These 6 persons are the negative minded persons and the rest 4 are the positive minded persons. The reason why I said that 2 persons will find the solutions whereas other 2 will try their level best is to show the difference between the skill set of different persons but more importantly it was to show that a person with low skill set is also respected if he has positive attitude and remains as a man of values.(I will come up soon with one post on the values that constitute an individual).

How to develop a positive attitude?

     whenever,a problem arises or we face a difficult situation in life.It's like two faces of a coin,both positive and negative things will be associated with it. It's up to us to decide on which side to look upon? Before one year,I was more of a pessimistic person but now gradually changing as an optimistic person. Once I made a mistake for which a gathering of 200 laughed at me and the mistake which I did was so ridiculous.After this incident happened,I was sad and depressed for some time but after some time realized that the incident happened was a chance for me to learn my negatives and correct it.From then on,I am not committing that mistake.Because of looking something on a positive note,I am able to correct one of my negative whereas if had looked upon it on a negative note,I could not have corrected my negative and could have been depressed for some more days. Once you become a positive minded person,then the life which you are going to experience will be beautiful,joyful and pleasant.

Normally we see some people who are all the time enthusastic,full of energy and remains in a good mood all the time. If you make a research on them,you will come to know that it is mainly because of their positive nature and not because of anything.If a person behaves in a different way at different situations which people call it as mood,then definitely he is a victim of that situation and not able to control himself or the things surrounding him.This is mainly because of not seeing the situation in a positive note.

whenever an incident happens,know both positives and negatives of it but think on the brighter side of it alone and try to find a solution for it.Every problem will definitely have a lot of solutions.Think in a positive way.you will surely able to choose an optimum solution from a list of available solutions.This may be difficult at the beginning but soon you will see miracles happening in your life. I have written this article on my own experience and from some of the articles which I have come across from some sources. Follow it and see the difference!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How to become a good speaker?

Here good speaker in the sense,I am not referring politicians. I am referring about professional speakers who give presentations for Engineering and B school students and for corporates too.

Nowadays presentations and guest lectures have become a vital part of our professional life. whether we like are dislike,we need to attend these sessions for atleast 2 times per month. But making these sessions interesting and informative completely depends on the speakers. When delivered properly,the benefits which we are gaining out of it is tremendous. we can get  immense knowledge on a particular topic in a maximum of 2 hours which normally will take 2 days when we search and read the same from books,net and other sources. so after listening to a lot of guest lectures and presentations,I am coming out with some suggestions which may help you to improve yourself as a great speaker.

since I am a part of audience and also writing this from audience point of view,I believe everything which I am going to say will definitely help you.

1. Make the ppt's simple and attractive and use images wherever possible.At any cost,dont make it complicate.
2. Make sure that,while preparing slides you use light colour background and dark colour text.
3. Dont add more than 8 lines per slide and dont type the entire lecture on the slide.
4. Spend some time and decide what are the things you are going to discuss under the topic and add some key points alone in the slide.
5. Keep a lot of things on your mind to speak other than the things listed on the ppt.
6. Polish your lecture or contents with a lot of real time examples and applications.
7. Touch upon the current happenings in the globe then and there.
8. While delivering presentation,crack a joke once in 10 minutes which would leave the listeners in splits.
9. If possible,add up a case study.
10. Add some video clippings to your presentations which would definitely enhance your lecture.
11. Make the session interactive and make the audience also to speak on certain areas.
12. while delivering,have a slight smile on your face and be confident.
13. Take care of your voice clarity,tone,modulation,body language and gestures.
14. Take care of your dressings too,normally formals will be the best fit for such occassions.
15. Display a lot of energy by means of your face and body language.

              This are some of my suggestions and  I hope this article will definitely help you.Having said these things,dont think that I am a great speaker.Actually I am a novice in this and trying a lot in getting myself better.I have just written it on a way how we give feedback after watching a movie.I am also going to follow all the aforementioned things in the upcoming class seminars and let's see what are the differences the above listed items are going to make in our seminars!!!
