Dynamic environment



I like my current job.Sometimes is a bit disordered, but it's very dynamic, always I must to do something and always I have problems to solve.

I wouldn't like to work in a very safe work, I think that people makes old because they do always the same thing, zero motivation, zero challenge at all and zero chance to take their own choices. When the work is like that, people only think at money, and they don't see the opportunities.

Always try to look for dynamic work with an dynamic environment that because you will grow a lot in professional terms.

I don't like meetings...



Remember that I've mentioned communication at last post?.

Well, I keep my idea that communication is very good. But I don't like when there're meetings for everything. I think that in most cases there are other alternatives, go to the office or make a call to the interested, use Instant Messaging, use e-Mail, send a doc and tell it the put his reviews in it, etc.

I believe that meetings are initial and the last resort. Initial when you're starting a project and need to get ideas for it. And last when the project is running, I think that is good when there's a problem very hard to solve and involves many people. But it's very counterproductive when the meeting is for simple problems that are more easy to solve if the tasks are well asigned to specific people. Is like the classic joke: How many ... does it take to change a lightbulb?. You can find a lot of this kind of joke here.

Searching from a picture for this post, I found a link from eHow about How To Survive a Boring Meeting, so if you think that meetings are boring too, follow this link. Thanks eHow for the picture.

Talk, talk, talk



Hey Geek, communications it's not only about TCP/IP Stack nor the OSI Model nor the ACM Magazine. Communications exist in real life.

Yes. You need to speak with another a people, and a lot. Forget meetings, they are boring, I'm talking about face to face talking with all people.

And Sorry to be aggresive at start. But I needed to call your attention. If you think that's not the way to do it. You're right. Calling genuine attention is more elaborated than that. You need to have a lot of patience, be empathic and very friendly. You need to win the another people confidence, and you can do that by talking, expressing and communicating.

So. Don't forget it, being and seeming, Isn't enough only to be good, you have to look good and others must realize about your habilities. How do you that?. Communicating!!!.

Quietly active



To be productive, you need to be active, but doesn't mean that you have to put Nitrous Oxide on your feets. It's better that doing thing slowly but always doing well than doing faster and making mistakes repeatedly.

You need to be like a snail. The snail is slow, but doesn't stop moving. You can see it at a place, wait for a reazonable time and you will see it at a very different place. It's more useful to do little, but continuously well done work than try to do extremely faster and lose a lot of time fixing mistakes.

I know that I'm slow, so I'm trying this perspective. You can impress yourself when the job is done.
