Eat Well. Add Value. Leave Your Legacy―Share if You Care!




"Carve your name on hearts, not tombstones. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share about you." ―Shannon L. Alder


Everyone wants to lead a healthy, happy and meaningful life but only a few succeed. A few individuals adopt the right attitude and approach toward life leaving their lasting legacies. In this post, we will discuss eating right, adding value, and leaving a legacy.


Eat Right

You must follow two steps to leave an everlasting legacy―eat right and add value to others. You will be amazed to find the inner satisfaction you get and you will be applauded by the people around you. Eating healthy and nutritious food is essential to keep your entire day going smoothly. Exercise regularly to keep physically fit and active.


Add Value

Make it a practice to encourage and inspire one person every day. It doesn’t require any investment except for your precious time. After your death, nobody cares how many houses you owned, how much wealth you created but people care what value you have added to the world. Therefore, add value to build a better world.


Leave a Lasting Legacy

Legacy is when you live for others. Legacy is when you touched the lives of others. People are born and dead every day but only a few people are remembered for their contribution. Ask yourself what is your contribution to the world. Ask what legacy you like to leave for your future generations. When you get the right answers, you start living in this world meaningfully and be able to leave your legacy.  Remember that legacies extend beyond the boundaries of time. Therefore, everyone must strive to leave a lasting legacy. My personal legacy statement is to be known for inspiring my students to be more than they thought they could be.


Conclusion


Life is simple and straight but people make it complicated due to wrong practices and faulty approaches. When you want to lead a peaceful, happy and meaningful life, you must eat right, add value and leave your legacy. To conclude, become the author of your life by eating right, adding value and leaving a lasting legacy for future generations.

Stop Political Vendetta: Emphasize Economy and Enhance Employment―Share if You Care!





“Whenever a man has cast a longing eye on offices, a rottenness begins in his conduct.” ―Thomas Jefferson


I have observed several living leaders exploiting the images of the dead leaders. They did not recognize the efforts and contribution of the dead leaders when the latter were alive. They did not care and did not give any awards to the dead leaders. But they exploit the images and brands of the dead leaders in the public platforms. They pay homage to the memorials of the latter with crocodile tears. Is it justified?

In this informative age where abundant information is available free online at the click of a button, it has become easier for ordinary individuals to access the information and assess the authenticity of politicians. Living leaders assume that people are fools and don’t understand their gimmicks. People will teach a lesson to them at an appropriate time.  

Present politicians must invest their efforts for constructive activities rather than involving in the political vendetta. They must address the pressing problems including unemployment and the economy in the larger interests of the nation to take India to great heights globally.


“It is not in the nature of politics that the best men should be elected.  The best men do not want to govern their fellowmen.”  ―George E. MacDonald

How to Interview Celebrities Successfully?―Share if You Care!






There is an assumption that conducting interviews and giving interviews are easy tasks. They are tough tasks indeed especially when you conduct interviews with celebrities. If becoming a celebrity and giving interviews is one thing, interviewing a celebrity is another thing. Both tasks need the right platforms to share ideas and build leadership brands. In this post, I will discuss interviewing celebrities, etiquette, and tips to interview celebrities successfully.

You must join appropriate platforms to connect with celebrities and use your connections wisely to reach them through various means including email, telephone, and personal interaction. It is advisable to approach them through your reliable connections because they give comfort and confidence to the celebrities.  Additionally, celebrities have their apprehensions and insecurities.  


How to Interview Celebrities?

Prepare a template and customize your questions according to the interests of the celebrities and their profession. Here is a blueprint to interview celebrities successfully.
  • Research intensively about the celebrity and find out their areas of interests to connect with them before the interview and frame questions accordingly.   
  • Capture the ideas that flash through your mind first. Convert them into questions. Present them into a polished language. Avoid irrelevant questions and repetition. Structure and sequence them. Edit them ruthlessly.
  • Don’t give the questions to the interviewees in advance to achieve the right outcomes. However, you may share an outline of the interview in advance to enable the interviewee to prepare mentally.
  • Observe etiquette and respect their privacy.
  • Avoid close-ended questions. Ask open-ended questions to get the best.
  • Avoid asking embarrassing, controversial and personal questions. Instead, hit the bull’s eye with right questions. Don’t ask questions based on rumors and grapevine.
  • Listen attentively and empathetically. Don’t interrupt. If there is a need to interrupt, wait for a pause during the conversation and ask your question politely. Avoid creating an impression that you have cut off the interviewee.
  • Avoid outsmarting the interviewee. Don’t control the conversation. Let the interviewee speak freely.
  • Be unique and add value to your audiences by asking innovative and useful questions. Respect the time of your audiences and readers.  
  • Indicate a signpost when you are about to close the interview.



Conclusion

Research and preparation are the keys to successful celebrity interviews. Take liberty to deviate from the questions to have a natural flow of conversation. Take intrapersonal feedback after the interview to improve. Practice a lot and improve regularly to excel as a successful interviewer. To summarize, don’t give up if the celebrities don’t agree to your interview requests. Be patient and persistent. It is worth trying to add value and stand out from others. Good luck to your successful interviews!
