I use Twitter as a commonplace note: https://t.co/vPr6DeA0d4 CTO In Sales • Homeschooling dad Building @siteaudittools & @thoughttonote
@iamtomelliot I have a personal board of advisors (Thanks @ritikasingh75 & @haritmohan). I update them regularly (though there is no set frequency). I have found that to be super useful.
@adamstjohn Missed you Adam. Hope all is well with you. Happy New Year.
Other notes are around coaching & co-creation Coach in professional life = coaches in gym with lot of machines. You are not supposed to jump on all those machines. Members are supposed to so as to get results they want. You stand on the side to help them get the results.
This time we talked a lot about rituals in co-creation and facilitation. Very practical tips. • use @mirohq to prepare, facilitate, and end meetings • coming prepared to meetings will establish your authority as a professional • some cultures like to be guided, others not
Overall it is a fun hour going over service design, facilitation, coaching concepts. It is free. Twice a month - 10th suits Indian time. It falls around 1.30 pm or 2.30 pm (depending on European timezones) Details here:
The highlight was the thankful routine at the end. It was creative and memorable. It was a display of improv technique. We all renamed ourselves to 1,2,3. Everyone has to say ONE word to frame a story. We created a nice little story abt celebrating going back to work
Took quite a lot of random notes from today's session. Topics included: 1️⃣ Practicing as a coach 2️⃣ Facilitating a large team with different projects 3️⃣ Transitioning to offline working 4️⃣ Facilitating a 4 hour lecture 5️⃣ Being thankful
@netsolutions As you build those three skills, they'll become a positive loop feeding on each other. You'll generate lot of stepping stones, which will give you more and more options to grow. Keep growing.
@netsolutions Become a T-shaped expert I saved the best for the last. Without expertise everything else will fail as a house-of-cards. Tech moves fast. Trying to master everything is futile & foolish. Be an expert in an area - db/backend/frontend/infra. But learn about other areas.
@netsolutions Understand business Your code solves a problem for the business. The more you know about that problem, you'll develop better thinking. Learn how sales, marketing, & operations play together to make a profit. Then develop specific skills to thrive at the intersection.
@netsolutions Build your network Your growth depends not only on who you know, but also who knows you. Your network is the ladder for your career growth. Try to talk to at least one new person every day. Learn about their job. Find how you can help them. Great network = Strong growth
@netsolutions To get through this bumpy road, focus on three skills: • Build your network • Understand business • Become a T-Shaped expert
@xavierroy Are you commuting or cruising Xavier?
@khushbooverma_ May be this thread by @AngeZanetti will help
@MattLanfear Try @WorkFlowy Foe the format you follow WF might be a great tool
@TweetAmitM There is nobody better than you do so 😉
@learnwithvidya Just finished, "Die With Zero" by Bill Perkins. Yet to tweet / blog about it. I can already feel that the concepts will have huge impact on me. Main idea: • The business of life is the acquisition of memories. What’s the best way to maximize your life experiences?
@learnwithvidya "Thou Shall Prosper" by Rabbi Daniel Lapin. It helped me nail the factors to live and track my life. Eventually, I created a course around it. Last year delivered 9 cohorts of the course. Wrote about the book here:
@the_agilepm @WorkFlowy What notes are in notion and are in workflowy? I have been a long term workflowy user. Considering Notion now.
@sastrytumuluri @BSNL_KL It doesn't seem to be new. I have seen this as early as 2016
@learnwithvidya Congrats & good luck for 2022
@rishabh_grg True. But everyone is trained to think abt employment. You think differently. Extend the similar thinking pattern.
@vijayanands Great idea. What abt each state govt generate NFTs of their memorable places, events, leaders?
@itswhoissane @Rahul_J_Mathur I use @airtable to collect feedback from my site readers. If you go to any of the post on my site (ex: ), there is a "How you feel about this article" section. When you click one of the options, it takes the reader to an Airtable form Comments look as 👇
@rishabh_grg Congrats RG. Knowing you, you'll rock. Just my 2cents: The most important question isn't "How am I going to make money?" It is, "What experiences I'm going to have and how can I support having them"
@SejalSud Kick your bucket list. Don't help your death.
@anujmagazine Congrats Anuj
@drcheruvarun @rvenk Trying to understand your comment: Isn't he talking abt "clinical evidence in India" rather than "dogmatic" or "evidence outside of India"? Or is your tweet more abt let not techies talk abt covid mgmt?
@ryanstrickler @heymattia Agree with Mattia that this looks like swipefile on steroids. Target customers cud b: • authors • those building personal brand • consultants Try integrating with api (buffer / Twitter) so you increase your distribution - not just Twitter but LinkedIn too
As an example, Apple Maps shows -30 c as temperature while the actual is 20 c 😱 Android gets is correct. For such an expensive phone, iOS is so wrong in this category.
@dharmesh @visualizevalue You can read my notes from the book here: While at it, subscribe to my weekly newsletter: . I send out content about Wealth, Insights, Network, and Self-control (WINS)
@dharmesh @visualizevalue As a software engineer, I loathed networking. Once I understand what it is and the power of it, I can't stop talking to people and help them have a great day.
@dharmesh @visualizevalue Law of reciprocity plays an important role in increasing the number of people who wants you to succeed. Law of reciprocity requires: - giving to the group - abundance mindset - actively seeking out opportunities to help others
@dharmesh Put together a hit list of 50 people you’d like to stay in touch with this year. Ever since I read this, I have made a list of nice folks and covering that list 3 per week. Joining active community like @visualizevalue helps
@dharmesh Phases of growing relationship: visibility, credibility, and profitability - Visibility: create recognition & awareness - Credibility: walk the talk; talk with your results - Profitability: If it doesn’t profit both partners, it will not endure
@dharmesh Success is social: all the ingredients of success that we customarily think of as individual — talent, intelligence, education, effort, and luck—are intertwined with networks
@dharmesh If you are an introvert, become a “situational extrovert” - be a loner, reserved ardound strangers, but very outgoing in the right context. Helped to get my perspective right. I'm an introvert; realised don't have to be one all the time.
@dharmesh Networking is about nurturing mutually beneficial relationships nurture - nurture as a plant mutually - both sides benefit beneficial - not one dimensional; not only about $$$ relation - not a transaction, but a relation Invest in their success as they invest in yours
@rishabh_grg Thanks Rishabh. Useful tool. There are so many tools in this space. Looks like lot of opportunities still unexplored. What do you think of building on a platform that could change the underlying APIs and also terms?
@SejalSud Go old school. Read annual reports / stakeholder letters of companies. Amazon & Sonata software are two of the examples
• was the video relevant to the page? No • was there a recommendation to listen to the page? No • do these tech available? Yes
I wanted to read an article abt marketing & innovation by Drucker. First on Google search was an article by Forbes. When I opened, I saw an irrelevant message and a video on top of the page I WANTED to read.
@valsopi As a coach myself, I would always recommend having a coach 😜
Knowing the type of decision will help you to choose the strategy to make great decisions. Now make a great decision and follow me :-) It is after all it is a reversible decision.
While driving on a highway, you might take the inner-city road rather than the coastal road that you wanted to take. Still you could control the wastage of hours and reverse the decision.
Unless you are Ross (of the Friend's TV series) you want your marriage to last until your death. Reversing a marriage is not possible, though you could get out of it. Still, it will affect your life.
What about significant decisions? There are two types of significant decisions. - controllable, hence reversible - conseqential, thus non-reversible Let us talk about the consequential decisions first
Though routine decisions should be easy to make, they can become difficult. How often have you stood frozen in-front of the dressing closet unable to decide the dress to wear? An important event like a date or an interview can make even the routine decision hard to make.
