Hi. Welcome to my blog. There are many things I want to do. But hopefully, as I go through this crazy world we live in, they say the internet allows millions of people worldwide to interact with each other. I have no intentions of reaching that many, but you never know. Let's see where this journey goes. If it makes a difference in your life, then the journey would be complete.

MAKING POSITIVE ATTRIBUTE: Be The 1st one in mind

Japan Aviation Electronics Phils.,Inc - one of the electronics company i worked as Quality Assurance (QA). If my superiors thinks about good quality output without any discrepancies they always think Jonna is the one. When times of quarterly perfect in attendance awardee, Jonna is the one. When my superiors think of clean, organized working table, Jonna is the one. By the time the management needs a new line leader, I was the first choice.
Here's my point, If we want to start rising to the top esp at work,You have to be the first or the top of mind amongst the people that you work for specially your boss. When the boss needs something done, you have to be the first in his mind. If you’re just the third, or the fourth, or the fifth, or the tenth in his mind, you’re just like a company that is in third , fourth or fifth position -- far, far away from rising to the top.

But, being top of mind is not enough. You also have to burn an attribute in his mind.

Caution: Burning an attribute in your boss’s or co-worker’s mind is a double-edged sword. You have to make sure that you burn a positive attribute and not a negative one.It is very difficult or next to impossible to dislodge an attribute in ones mind once it has been established. If you go into the workplace and the attribute you burn in your boss’s mind is (you’re lazy),(you’re not a team player),(you’re not trustworthy) then chances are, that attribute will stick in his mind for years to come and you’ll have a hard time rising to the top.
How many friends or people do you know have been branded “lazy”, “a flirt”, “playboy”, “cheater”, "user", "back-slider" etc. Think about it, no matter how hard they try to change their image, it just sticks and is so hard to dislodge from your mind isn’t it? That’s how powerful burning an attribute in the mind is, positive or negative.

So, key lesson is if you want to rise to the top, you got to be the first in their mind and you got to burn positive attributes in their mind.
