Self-Interest Comes Before Any Other Interest, this is the Universal Truth. Everyone does things according to their private needs and desires. Everyone wants to survive, survival is Nature defined. A selfish individual’s very selfishness prevents him from serving his own best interest.

While self-interest and selfishness are two completely different things..Extreme form of self-interest is usually termed as selfishness.

Your success in career, business or life for that matter is with & thru other people. So how to influence and win without being perceived as pushy or demanding? Here are the top 10 secrets of exerting instant influence.

1. Never use a frontal attack when trying to deal with someone. Use the secret passages.

2. Remember that self-interest is everyone’s first interest. Satisfy the wants of the other person and you influence that person toward satisfying your own.

3. Contribute to the Picture-preference of the other person. People need your assurance that they are liked and welcomed. This is a forceful influence in your behalf.

An Amazing Tool That Helps In Reducing Daily Stress, Manages Sensitive Information Effectively And Increases Your Productivity

103a1.jpgBelieve it or not we all spend a significant amount of time resetting forgotten passwords. In my last project I spoke to over 17 professionals on how they keep up with this password resetting problem. Most of them expressed they have heard about applications in the market place that could do this, but never tried testing them.

While some of them did mention they keep all the their passwords in excel spreadsheets, some said they write them somewhere on paper and usually lose it on a frequent basis. Others tried to simplify this problem by having one user name for all the sites they access with having a small password with some degree of variance across all the sites.

Certainly I would not recommend that you have one password for all your sites. Like wise having your last name as your username to publicly accessible sites such as yahoo, hotmail and ebay can be dangerous. Given that you have many distinct usernames and passwords, remembering them is a nightmare too. Until most recently I was resetting 7 passwords a week on an average. Some of the accounts I do not even remember the user name as it was auto generated when I signed up for the service.

Most recently I discovered and tested a wonderful tool that has practically eliminated this problem for me. Its called Roboform. It keeps all passwords encrypted. When you visit a website on the internet, it can automatically fill the username and password for it automatically.

You may be thinking what happens if someone hacks into your computer or the application itself?. Roboform encrypts the password it stores. In fact you cannot access the passwords without putting in the master password for the application. If required It can also generate complex passwords for you.

You can either install Roboform on your desktop, laptop or can even install it on thumb drive. I have purchased and tried all versions. To explore all the features this software I encourage you to test it by downloading and installing it for free.
