Career15 Pieces Of The Best Career Advice Successful Business Leaders Ever Received by madamjay(op): 3:41pm On Feb 05, 2019
Throughout your life, you will always receive career advice – some bad and some good. What you do with the advice you receive is up to you, but in some instances, it can prove to be invaluable. A report from CNBC showed that the top women CEOs received valuable career advice from their moms that they still adhere to today.

Whether you have received advice from a mentor, peer or family member, it can help change the course of how you go about your career and the path you decide to take.

Below, 15 Forbes Agency Council members share the best career advice that they ever received and how it helped them throughout their journey.

1. Work Hard, Play Harder

In the creative industry, hours are long. You must work hard to succeed. But to be inspired and keep your finger on the pop culture pulse, you also really need to play hard. You need to get out there and live life. See the play. Hear the music. Go on the trip. A life lived solely behind a computer screen leaves little to the imagination. - Abby Downing, ZinePak


2. Avoid Being Paralyzed By Fear

When I graduated from college, I interviewed 300+ people about their best career advice. Not to downgrade their advice, but the best career lesson came from a fainting goat. Adult fainting goats experience temporary paralysis when they face fear. On the other hand, baby fainting goats know nothing about fear and move about the farm freely. The key to a career: Avoid being paralyzed by fear. - Brett Farmiloe, Markitors

3. Have A Path But Be Flexible

Have a general career path in mind, build relationships along that path, and be willing to accept challenges even if it seems they may lead you down a different path. You never know where those may lead. - Brian Sullivan, Sullivan Branding

4. Don't Let Others Manage Your Career

One of my mentors always said don't let others manage your career because you will be unhappy with the results. What he meant by management is focusing on what skills and experiences you need to ultimately be in your dream job. I managed my moves carefully, making sure that I built the right skills to be a CEO. In the end, he was right and I am happy with the outcome. - Gina Michnowicz, Union+Webster

5. Earn Their Trust

The best piece of career advice I ever received was "earn their trust." Whether it's a client, a coworker, a vendor or a boss, once you have earned someone's trust, new opportunities, information and cooperation come your way. I've found this to be true for the more than three decades of my career. - Drew McLellan, Agency Management Institute

6. Fight For Happiness

A fairy tale misconception is that happiness (in work or in life) is presented to you by someone else (like a knight in shining armor). Truth is, your life, happiness, sense of balance and even how people treat you, are completely in your control. But the kicker is you have to fight for these things each day. - Jaymie Scotto Cutaia, Jaymie Scotto & Associates

7. Learn Something New Every Day

The pace of business is grueling and the energy required is exhausting. But, as one of my trusted mentors reminded me, our brain needs exercise each day. He suggested to seek new knowledge and become a student of the industry I serve, of my profession, as well as in parenting and in my faith. Learning something new is a privilege we can ill-afford to sacrifice. - Dave Wendland, Hamacher Resource Group

8. Treat Everyone How You Want To Be Treated

Anyone who comes in contact with your business or employees deserves to be treated with kindness and respect. I’ve held to this belief when dealing with rude inquiries, tough clients and bullying peers. The result is a company with a reputation for helping others, sticking to their word and producing results while being courteous. - Leila Lewis, Be Inspired PR

9. Don't Be The Smartest One In The Room

Oftentimes, leaders feel that they need to be the "smartest guy or gal" in the room, and that couldn't be further from the truth. Good leaders are the smartest one in the room, great leaders surround themselves with smarter people that will challenge ideas, bring new perspectives to the table and drive innovation. - Jacob Hanson, PR with Panache!

Forbes Agency Council is an invitation-only community for executives in successful public relations, media strategy, creative and advertising agencies. Do I qualify?
10. Improve, Don't Perfect

Success doesn’t come overnight. The ascent toward your vision is long and steep, but only you can see it, so don’t be so hard on yourself. Start climbing and you’ll realize you’re on a never-ending hike. Strive for constant improvement, not perfection. - Lindsay Mullen, Prosper Strategies

11. Never Complain When There’s A Lot Of Work

I was told by a mentor very early on that I should never complain when there’s a lot of work to do. I agree and tell my team the same thing. Be thankful there’s work to do. When something becomes easy or routine, it’s a clear sign you’re not growing. - Nicole Rodrigues, NRPR Group, LLC

12. Don't Tie Your Sense Of Self-Worth To Your Job

Regardless of how good/bad your job is going at any time, you're a valued individual regardless. If you're finding that your emotions are held hostage to how you're performing at work, it's time to rethink your priorities and what truly matters to you. - Jeff Tan, Dentsu Aegis Network

13. Slay The Dragon

Dragons take on many forms – the hardest task of the day, a new responsibility, an impending deadline, or even dealing with conflict – and the trick is to just slay the dragon and move on. Don’t overthink it. To succeed, you have to have the confidence to take things head on and keep moving forward. - Sarah Mannone, Trekk

14. Market Yourself

When I started my career, I was told, "Market yourself because no one else will do it for you." I passed along every "great job!" email to my managers and then filed them away to read again whenever I needed a pick-me-up. I shared the work I had done of which I was proud and others might not be aware. And I counsel everyone I mentor to do the same. If you don't have your own back, who will? - Starr Million Baker, INK

15. You Are The CEO Of Your Life

As entrepreneurs, we're going to work 100-hour weeks and get little thanks. So we have to be clear about our "why." If you can think of anything else you'd rather be doing with your time, then what you're doing today is not right. When you fully, deeply commit to your "why," the grind is just part of the game. My "why" is to breathe life into the dreams of entrepreneurs. I can't get enough of that. - Randy Shattuck, The Shattuck Group
Family5 Tips To Ensure Pregnancy Health For Mother And Child by madamjay(op): 10:21am On Feb 01, 2019
Congratulations! Finally, you have the great news that you are pregnant. It might be your first pregnancy and there are many myths about pregnancy, here are some top tips to ensure pregnancy health for mother and baby.

Pregnancy can bring so much joy to a family. However, it can also pose innumerable health risks to the woman and to the baby, as well. Pregnancy is many times one of the most awaited events in a woman’s life, especially if the woman has had a hard time trying to conceive. This means that when a woman is pregnant taking some precautions for health maintenance is critical.

Here are 5 tips to ensure pregnancy health for mother and baby

1. Eat well, conceive well.

This one is a myth! It is not true that you have to eat for two when pregnant. Eating more than the amount of food that is enough for one person will only cause excessive weight gain. According to research, a pregnant woman will only need an extra 200 to 300 calories per day. And who knows, you might be already eating those extra calories in your pre-pregnancy lifestyle. Eating healthy food will do the mother and the baby good. Of course, the extra calories should not be coming from junk food.

2. Supplement your wellness.

A pregnant mum should take a vitamin supplement that contains folic acid. It is even better if it started before conception and during early pregnancy. Why folic acid? Because this micro-mineral, which is found mostly in green leafy veggies, when taken 400 mcg daily before and during early pregnancy, can reduce the risk of having babies born with neural tube defects. This is definitely one to remember when it comes to pregnancy health.

3. Away with your vices.

It could have been hard for you to quit on your smoking or frequent alcohol intake. Now is high time for you to rethink your actions. The nicotine from cigarettes and alcohol from the alcoholic beverages you consume can harm your growing baby. Usually, babies from mothers that have been smoking are born with low average birth weight, are prone to being born prematurely and may die from sudden infant death syndrome compared to babies of non-smoking moms. Caffeine is one substance that should be avoided, too. So, say ta-ta to your coffee for your baby’s sake.

4. Medical Precautions

Even before pregnancy, it won’t hurt to get prenatal care. Making sure that you are immune to certain diseases that might affect your pregnancy counts a lot. An example of these diseases that a pregnant woman should be cautious of is rubella or German measles. Knowing your blood type will also help you prepare for any medical condition that you might encounter during pregnancy.

5. Exercise properly for you and your baby.

Exercising is one good way to help keep a pregnant woman fit, as well as her baby. One of the important forms of exercise that can be done during pregnancy includes those that help improve the muscles’ endurance. Stretching can help a lot, too. But all of these activities should be done with precaution and after consulting with your doctor.

It all boils down to the fact that if a woman would like to have a healthy pregnancy, she has to have a healthy lifestyle.
CareerHow To Be The Perfect Candidate At An Interview by madamjay(op): 4:02pm On Jan 30, 2019
Hello Job seeker,

Most times, getting a job goes wayyyy beyond having a great CV/resume. It really boils down to one question in the interviewers mind, "Do I like this person enough?".

Luckily, you can work your way to being the candidate that the interviewer likes! Here are a few tips to help you get started.

1. Be pleasant and courteous: We know that getting a job is a serious matter, but that doesn't mean you should go in with a frown or an overly serious look. Put on a warm smile. As soon as you step into the interview room, smile at your interviewer. Not grin, smile! This would help lighten the mood.

2. Be eloquent and articulate: Arrange your thoughts properly before you speak. Make sure that your thoughts are coherent, so that you do not use a lot of sound pauses while speaking.

3. Be witty: It never hurts to infuse a witty joke, here and there while explaining your points or answering questions. Remember, you are going for witty, not sarcastic. It is important that you understand the difference and to keep it at witty, as not everyone understands sarcasm and it can sometimes come off as rude.

4. Do your homework: Know everything that there is to know about your role and the company before entering the interview room. Armed with these, you can always carry on the conversation with the interviewer.

5. Have a question about the company: You are not only interviewing for the job, you are also trying to see if the company is a good fit for you. So ask questions about the company. Ask about their healthcare policies, ask about their growth structure etc. This would show the interviewer that you are not only interested in getting a job, you are interested in getting the perfect job for you.


So these are my few tips. If you have any extra tips, kindly drop here!
