Shaking Hands, Turning Pages
by Donald J. Trump I’ve always been against shaking hands as it’s a great way to pass along millions of germs. The other offense is when people lick their fingers before turning pages–that’s a fingerprint full of germs just waiting for the next person who picks up the paper. In this day and age, people should think about that. It’s not only unnecessary, it’s unhealthy and disrespectful of other people. People are surprised when I shake their hands, and it’s only because it’s a custom (a bad one) that I do it, but I will always wash my hands afterwards. That’s not an offense to anyone. But you can’t wash off a paper, so that’s an offense that should be reckoned with. If you do this, stop, and let other people know it’s not acceptable if you see them doing it. Sometimes we don’t realize how easy it is to infect others, and sometimes we don’t realize how easy it is to take precautions to avoid it. There’s no reason to take chances or to make other people susceptible. Shaking hands, turning pages? Think about it.

Five Things I Do Every Day
by Thomas M. Schmitz Engage Mine would not be much of a career if I didn’t engage in actual work. Like attorneys and doctors, I approach my profession as a practice and I strive to give every client my best effort. The nice thing about working is that it gives you experience. Every new task, project or client helps me to accomplish even better work. Learn I go out of my way to learn something new every day. While it’s easy to think in terms of learning practical applications such as new skills or techniques, gathering industry information is important too. Keep up with your professional culture. Stay abreast of the business climate. Understand the newest rules and regulations. Know which competitors are growing or struggling. Know who’s hiring, even if you’re not looking for a new job. Knowing everything you can about your work, profession and industry prepares you to recognize and take advantage of opportunities. Network Who you know is more important than what you know. Yes, it’s a worn, tired cliché. I don’t care; it’s true. Meeting other members of your profession helps you to learn about what’s going on in your industry, which will lead to new opportunities. It’s where trade secrets and little known techniques get passed along. But the best reason to network? It’s fun. There’s nothing like going to the occasional after-work party, conference or event to renew excitement and recharge your mental batteries. Teach Teaching serves two important purposes. First, sharing your knowledge with others is admirable, it’s a contribution to your profession. And when you teach you become an expert. Organizing your knowledge and experience into coherent communicable bits forces you to understand what you know. The act of presenting itself reinforces your knowledge and will make you more comfortable and reliable during other types of high-pressure situations. When you teach people they perceive you as the expert and as a leader. That’s a good reputation to foster, especially when you’re pursuing new clients or career growth. Whether you’re training a fellow employee, presenting at a conference or lecturing at your local community college, teaching gives back far more than it takes. Evangelize Do you cheer for your profession? Do you volunteer at conferences and events? Do you serve on an industry group or association committee? If you love your work then you owe it to yourself and your profession to tell other people, often and enthusiastically. If you desire progress in your career, seek opportunities to serve. Volunteer. Organize. Produce events. Like teachers, evangelists become recognized as experts. Colleagues desire to meet them and to become friends. Related Post Problems or Opportunities?
