There were two best friends тАУ Ramesh and Suresh.
Both were good in their studies. Ramesh scored 90% in his final exam, while Suresh secured 80%. They got an interview call from one of the top MNCs.
When the interview results were out, to everyone’s surprise, Suresh got the job. Before understanding the scenario, let’s first understand an interview.
The word “interview” refers to a one-on-one conversation between an interviewer and an interviewee.
The interviewer asks questions to which the interviewee responds, usually providing information. Interviews are face-to-face and in-person, but there can also be videoconferencing and telephonic interviews.
You don’t need to memorize an answer; do take the time to consider how you’ll respond.┬аThe more you prepare, the more confident you’ll feel during a job interview.┬а
Interviewers will ask questions to gain insight into your personality and determine your suitability for the job and the company. These are open-ended questions that will allow you to show the employer that you’re well-qualified for the position.
Tell me about yourself.
Tell me about something that’s not on your resume.
What are your hobbies?
Why are you leaving your job?
Why did you quit your job?
Why should we hire you?
What are your salary expectations?
What makes you angry?
What do you know about this company?
Are you willing to travel?
During the interview, the interviewers will assess some of the following Applicants’ capacities :
To listen,
To communicate тАУ verbal as well as non-verbal (facial expressions, body language) communication
To work with a team,
To have attention to detail,
To learn and implement,
Emotional intelligence,
Openness to new experiences,
Goals,
Passion,
Enthusiasm.
Now, you must have understood that it is necessary to prepare for an interview. It assesses your academics as well as your personality. Suresh did more thorough preparation for an interview than Ramesh, so he got selected.
One should always keep on preparing for an interview as it is a process that tests your subconscious state of mind.
Research has shown that how well an applicant does in the interview can be enhanced with coaching. Additionally, interviewees tend to have positive reactions to coaching, which is often an underlying goal of an interview.
Coaching focuses on improving the interviewee’s understanding of the skills, abilities, and traits. The effectiveness of coaching is due, in part, to increasing the interviewee’s knowledge, which in turn results in better interview performance.
Tip тАУ Never go unprepared for any interview, as it will only hamper your reputation and lower your confidence.
We have conducted online and offline sessions for individuals and groups.
Our sessions have helped our participants understand the science behind interviews. We are happy that our sessions helped our participants in cracking interviews.
Most of us know the need to be fitter, lose weight, exercise more, and eat healthier. It is difficult to make these critical changes on our own. We might begin a fitness program or go on a diet, but we do not seem to be able to follow through with what we have started.
We seem to get confused; that’s where a wellness coach will help you.
A wellness coach will help you to establish fitness and nutrition goals and see that you accomplish them.
A good coach will help you build confidence in your ability to make changes and create new (healthy habits) on your own.┬а
In Wellness Coaching, a close relationship and partnership with a coach provide structure, accountability, expertise, and inspiration. It enables the client to learn, grow, and develop beyond what you can do alone.
Wellness Coaching includes anything that impacts your health, fitness, and general well-being.
Wellness Coaching can help you to eat healthier, get fitter, and increase your daily energy. The main focus of Wellness Coaching is to make long-lasting healthy lifestyle changes, not to provide quick fixes.
The main focus of Wellness Coaching is to concentrate on your strengths and build on them to help you realize your goals. Together, you and the coach will identify your motivators and obstacles as you create your wellness vision for the future.
Wellness Coaching makes clients feel accountable to themselves. They make and honor their commitments to reaching their goals, accomplishing more than they believed possible when they began.
Coaches provide instruction and mentoring to clients and help them set goals, define an action plan, and navigate the path until they reach their goals.
We provide online and in-person coaching on diet and fitness.
The most appreciated compliment nowadays is about fitness. Even though all of us desire to be fit, we turn up getting fat.
We join gyms, do heavy workouts, and even reduce some weight, but fail to achieve the desired results.
The simple reason for our failure is our desire for immediate results.
For immediate results, we neglect the following: our biological clock, body type, mindset, daily routine, and many more important things.
After a patch of fitness, we experience more hormonal imbalance, more fat on the body, knee or back pain, and many other side effects.
My Fitness shoot
We can achieve desired results with homemade food and at our home gym without starvation, supplements, injury, and a strict diet.
Being a counselor, I know that our mindset plays a crucial role in our fitness. However, it is the most neglected part of the current fitness world.
Fitness cannot be the same for everybody. It depends on a personтАЩs mindset, body type, lifestyle, eating habits, and work schedules.
From my experience, I would like you all to know that it is ok if you get fat; however, it is necessary to be fit again, and if you donтАЩt know how to, then take the help of someone who knows the way.
We provide online and in-person fitness coaching. Our coaching sessions have benefitted many of our clients.

There is a key for every lock; just make an effort to search for that key…тЬНя╕П
There are all kinds of memories, some that we love to archive for a lifetime, while some we try very hard to delete from our life.
Still, human nature is to search and dig out those memories which caused emotional turbulence or disturbance in our life. We tend to recall them again, as we like to keep attached to those thoughts and events which motivate us to overthink.
Many doors lead us to the past. Hence it is advisable to keep doors to the past always locked.
If we keep it open, it leads to a thought rush leading to overthinking. It has an unwanted impact on our bodies and mind. Even if we want to unlock the door to the past, be careful to recall those experiences which can give us a learning experience and leads us to development. It is what we call mind control.
So we must command our minds to recall those memories which give us happiness, hope to live, motivation to succeed, and inspiration for living a happy and prosperous life.
