You understand what I mean?

Communication in corporations (and in life as well) is getting complex every passing day and with fast technology and cross culture progress its so amazing to see that how many more hours are spent each day to explain the simple things again & again.

Simple and plain communication was never a hard skill but now seems is "a must" if you want to thrive in the complex world of specialists.  Thus obsessively specialize "simple communication"

So the most successful person today won't be the great chemist or the finest accountant or even the best sales manager in your company but the guy among them who can translate the complex things into simple information, easy to absorb by teams sitting in different deptt. and countries.

Are you Cruising for Bruising?

There are wheels within wheels for your path to progress.  Some wheels are called aspirations, some called capabilities while few smaller ones are known as health and safety. While the movement of major wheels is your own contribution but these little wheels are so intrigue that they get impacted with the performance of your loved ones also.  And with that I mean the health and safety of your loved ones is no less important.

May be due to sheer love or affection, you dont want your kids or parents to have poor health but at the same time it won't be too selfish to expect them remain safe and healthy from your own progress point of view.  And with this I have already considered you as a true executive who believes that he is "as successful as his health".

I am sure you have access to many levels of information to maintain or improve your health and I consciously don't want to repeat any one of them, so here are few of my personal takes for your driving safety:

• All the fancy safety gadgets of your vehicle are less efficient than your own driving skills.
• You can avert 100% of road accidents by remain alert and slow (defensive driving)
• ABS (anti-lock braking system) increase the absolute stopping distance, but prevents the skidding.
• Never keep a cushion on your driving seat, this reduces your distance from the steering wheel and the airbag impact can be fatal, if opens.  
• Never go for oversize tyres, they not only increase the fuel consumption but also distorts the speedometer reading and steering stiffness. Chassis anatomy also compromised. 
• Never remove the head restraint, they are vital during airbag operations.  
• Use nitrogen in your tyres, its no more expensive. Nitrogen is healthy and safe for your summer driving. 
• Chose the lane that gives you the best view, best flow and the least risk.
• A car never loses control, the driver loses control.
• Split your phone in Voice and Data.  Which means keep 2 mobile phones, one for your data activity like emails/FB/Text/Whatsapp etc and the other one for plain voice.  So while the data phone remains in your bag,  the voice one in your pocket.  Any ultra-urgent incoming call... pull over in a safe zone, switch-on your blinkers and respond as short as possible.  Alternatively you can switch off the data service of your smart phone while driving.
• Leave sooner, drive slower, live longer.
