Everyone has fear(s) for something in their life. Let me start with myself. I used to fear the dark. I had fear of flying and I still fear heights!
Darkness is something I used to fear a lot. I would never walk on roads that aren't well lit. I won’t go into a room in my house without hitting the light switch first. And I usually won’t prefer to stay alone at home - if the family goes away, I join them too :)
But then it happened that I had to be away from home (for the first time EVER in my life) for my Ph. D. I had to live in a separate room in one of the student hostels at the campus in Lancaster University, UK. When I came to know about it I started panicking here … [Read more...]

No matter what content one writes, it is important for it to be compelling and engaging. The very foundation of a lead generation system is based on content that is interesting enough to hook readers and keep them informed, even when they are just skimming the page. And this truly is a harsh, but conceivable fact. Most readers only seem to skim articles, stories, and other forms of content.
This means that it takes that much more effort to create content that is relevant, display it in a manner that logical and clear and have a definitive order to it. Lead generation would be incomplete if you lose your reader with tiresome, tedious content that is not valuable or interesting.

When you spend your working days reading blogs, stalking writers and keeping one toe dipped in a pulsing stream of information twenty-four/seven, you pick up a hefty reading list of URL’s you just have to visit.
It becomes a morning ritual, as commutes roll by leisurely and the time it takes to move through the city no longer annoys you, as productivity has many guises and the smart devices of today are in close proximity to a truly round-the-clock workplace.
