Freelance Career

An Investment That Paid Off

Karyn Martin was cautious about launching her freelance career online, but she soon got results:

"I remember the days when I dreamed of being a freelancer," she says. "The word seemed magical to me somehow. Romantic, almost. Now, after having actually been a freelancer for a while, the scales have been lifted from my eyes and I have seen the light. You pay for being able to manipulate your time. You pay by working more, working harder, and - hopefully - working smarter. But what you get in return is priceless. Now I can call the shots about when I work, for whom I work, and how much I make."

One day, Karyn decided she was no longer willing to commute in smog-laden traffic to sit in a cubicle for eight hours, come home, eat, sleep, wake up, and then do it all over again. Going through the same routine, day after day, week after week , only to wake up one day old and tired - wondering how life might have been if she'd had the guts to go it alone.

So she decided to become a freelancer - but how would she find work? She had spent endless hours surfing the 'net, signing up with one freelance site after another. Yet there was an incredible amount of competition. She never seemed to win any bids, and was adamant about not lowering her hourly rate. 

"Then I discovered Freelance Work Exchange," she says. "I had heard "don't pay to work!" repeatedly, and I was too poor to risk getting scammed, but I took a chance one day when I was flush and sent twenty bucks to gain access to the Freelance Work Exchange Professional Edition.

"Since then, I've edited a sales letter, a follow-up letter, an 11-page Web site, and a brochure. I'm 'on call' to do pinch-hit proofreading for a medical newsletter editor in Florida while he's on vacation, sick, etc. And I've landed a gig editing a new Canadian magazine coming out this fall. All this from taking a $20 chance on Freelance Work Exchange."

Of course, it helped to send prospects a few previous work samples she'd had the presence of mind to scan and save on disk. Also, since she has been 'in the business' for more than five years, she has a fairly good résumé with some experience to back up the claims, along with a strong list of references.

"For every one of you out there feeling a little discouraged, and especially for those of you on the verge of throwing in the towel, I'm here to tell you this. There may not be a Santa Claus, but there is a place to find work without paying some ridiculous "transaction fee" or never knowing whether or not the projects are 'fresh' - and even the name is easy to remember - Freelance Work Exchange."

91/10 Principle

The 90/10 Principle
Author: Stephen Covey

Discover the 90/10 Principle. It will change your life (at least the way you react to situations). What is this principle?

10% of life is made up of what happens to you. 90% of life is decided by how you react. What does this mean? We really have no control over 10% of what happens to us. We cannot stop the car from breaking down. The plane will be late arriving, which throws our whole schedule off. A driver may cut us off in traffic. We have no control over this 10%.

The other 90% is different. You determine the other 90%.

How? By your reaction. You cannot control a red light, but you can control your reaction. Don't let people fool you; YOU can control how you react.

Let's use an example.

You are eating breakfast with your family. Your daughter knocks over a cup of coffee onto your business shirt. You have no control over what just happened.
What happens when the next will be determined by how you react.

You curse. You harshly scold your daughter for knocking the cup over. She breaks down in tears. After scolding her, you turn to your spouse and criticize her for placing the cup too close to the edge of the table. A short verbal battle follows. You storm upstairs and change your shirt. Back downstairs, you find your daughter has been too busy crying to finish breakfast and get ready for school. She misses the bus. Your spouse must leave immediately for work.

You rush to the car and drive your daughter to school. Because you are late, you drive 40 miles an hour in a 30 mph speed limit. After a 15-minute delay and throwing $60 traffic fine away, you arrive at school. Your daughter runs into the building without saying goodbye.

After arriving at the office 20 minutes late, you find you forgot your briefcase. Your day has started terrible. As it continues, it seems to get worse and worse. You look forward to coming home, When you arrive home, you find small wedge in your relationship with your spouse and daughter.

Why? Because of how you reacted in the morning. Why did you have a bad day?

A) Did the coffee cause it?

B) Did your daughter cause it?

C) Did the policeman cause it?

D) Did you cause it?

The answer is " D".

You had no control over what happened with the coffee.

How you reacted in those 5 seconds is what caused your bad day.

Here is what could have and should have happened.

Coffee splashes over you. Your daughter is about to cry. You gently say, "It's ok honey, you just need, to be more careful next time". Grabbing a towel you rush upstairs. After grabbing a new shirt and your briefcase, you come back down in time to look through the window and see your child getting on the bus. She turns and waves. You arrive 5 minutes early and cheerfully greet the staff. Your boss comments on how good the day you are having.

Notice the difference?

Two different scenarios. Both started the same. Both ended different.

Why? Because of how you REACTED.

You really do not have any control over 10% of what happens. The other 90% was determined by your reaction.

Here are some ways to apply the 90/10 principle.

If someone says something negative about you, don't be a sponge. Let the attack roll off like water on glass. You don't have to let the negative comment affect you! React properly and it will not ruin your day. A wrong reaction could result in losing a friend, being fired, getting stressed out etc.

How do you react if someone cuts you off in traffic?

Do you lose your temper?

Pound on the steering wheel?

Do you curse?

Does your blood pressure skyrocket?

Do you try and bump them?

WHO CARES if you arrive ten seconds later at work? Why let the cars ruin
your drive?

Remember the 90/10 principle, and do not worry about it.

You are told you lost your job. Why lose sleep and get irritated? It will
work out. Use your worrying energy and time into finding another job.

The plane is late; it is going to mangle your schedule for the day. Why take
out your frustration on the flight attendant? She has no control over what
is going on. Use your time to study, get to know the other passenger.

Why get stressed out? It will just make things worse. Now you know the 90-10
principle. Apply it and you will be amazed at the results. You will lose
nothing if you try it.

The 90-10 principle is incredible. Very few know and apply this principle.
The result? Millions of people are suffering from undeserved stress, trials,
problems and heartache.

We all must understand and apply the 90/10 principle.

It CAN change your life.

Gazal - અમૃત ઘાયલ

અમે ધારી નહોતી એવી અણધારી કરી લીધી;
અજાણી આંખડીએ ચોટ ગોઝારી કરી લીધી.
કોઇનાથી અમે બે વાત શું પ્યારી કરી લીધી !
જવાનીમાં મરણની પૂર્વતૈયારી કરી લીધી.
અમે મગરૂર મનને મારી લાચારી કરી લીધી;
કરી લીધી જીવન, તારી તરફદારી કરી લીધી.
ઘડીઓ આ જુદાઇની અને તે પણ જવાનીમાં ?
અમે આ પણ સહન તલવાર બેધારી કરી લીધી.
મને કંઇ વાત તો કરવી હતી અલગારી મન મારા,
વળી કોના થકી તેં પ્રીત પરબારી કરી લીધી.
ભલે એ ના થયાં મારાં, ભલા આ સ્નેહ શું કમ છે ?
ઘડીભર સાથ બેસી વાત બે પ્યારી કરી લીધી.
કસુંબલ આંખડીના આ કસબની વાત શી કરવી ?
કલેજું કોતરી નાજુક મીનાકારી કરી લીધી.
મઝાની ચાંદનીમાં નોતરી બેઠા ઉદાસીને,
અમે હાથે કરીને રાત અંધારી કરી લીધી.
હવે મિત્રો ભલે ગુસ્સો ગઝલ પર ઠાલવે ‘ઘાયલ’
અમારે વાત કરવી હતી પ્યારી, કરી લીધી.

Ultimate Divorce Letter

Dear Husband,

I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you for good. I've been a good woman to you for seven years and I have nothing to show for it.

These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me that you had quit your job today and that was the last straw. Last week, you came home and didn't notice that I had gotten my hair and nails done, cooked your favorite meal and even wore a brand new negligee.

You came home and ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep after watching the game. You don't tell me you love me anymore, you don't touch me or anything. Either you are cheating or you don't love me anymore, whatever the case is, I'm gone.

P.S. If you're trying to find me, don't. Your BROTHER and I are moving away to West Virginia together! Have a great life!

Your Ex-wife

**********************

Dear Ex-Wife,

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good woman is a far cry from what you've been. I watch sports so much to try to drown out your constant nagging. Too bad that doesn't work.

I did notice when you cut pff all of your hair last week, the first thing that came to mind was you look just like a man!" My mother raised me to not say anything if you can't say anything nice. When you cooked my favorite meal, you must have
gotten me confused with MY BROTHER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago. I went to sleep on you when you had on that new negligee because the price tag was still on it. I prayed that it was a coincidence that my brother had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning and your Negligee was $49.99.

After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. So when I discovered that I had hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica .

But When I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason I guess. I hope you have the filling life you always wanted. My lawyer said with your letter that you wrote, you won't get a dime from me. So take care.

P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carl, my brother was born Carla. I hope that's not a problem.

ગઝલ---ગની દહીંવાલા

દિવસો જુદાઇના જાય છે, એ જશે જરૂર મિલન સુધી,
મને હાથ ઝાલીને લઇ જશે, હવે શત્રુઓ જ સ્વજન સુધી.
ન ધરા સુધી, ન ગગન સુધી, નહિ ઉન્નતિ, ન પતન સુધી,
અહીં આપણે તો જવું હતું, ફક્ત એકમેકના મન સુધી.
હજી પાથરી ન શક્યું સુમન, પરિમલ જગતના ચમન સુધી,
ન ધરાની હોય જો સંમતિ, મને લૈ જશો ન ગગન સુધી.
છે અજબ પ્રકારની જિંદગી ! કહો એને પ્યારની જિંદગી,
ન રહી શકાય જીવ્યા વિના ! ન ટકી શકાય જીવન સુધી.
તમે રાંકનાં છો રતન સમાં, ન મળો, હે અશ્રુઓ, ધૂળમાં,
જો અરજ કબૂલ હો આટલી, તો હ્રદયથી જાઓ નયન સુધી.
તમે રાજરાણીના ચીર સમ, અમે રંક નારની ચૂંદડી !
તમે બે ઘડી રહો અંગ પર, અમે સાથ દઇએ જીવન સુધી.
જો હ્રદયની આગ વધી ‘ગની’, તો ખુદ ઇશ્વરે જ કૃપા કરી,
કોઇ શ્વાસ બંધ કરી ગયું, કે પવન ન જાય અગન સુધી.

ગની દહીંવાલા..

"Desi" - Away from the motherland

Most of us left the Indian shores to come here.
We have bid our farewells with teary eyes to our mothers.
We hugged our fathers and left without turning back.
We silently took leave from that girl next door peeping from behind the curtain.

We all came here, some long time back and some recently.
We all were alone in the beginning.
We missed our mothers cooking.
We missed the pani puri on the road side.
We missed those days when we gathered with friends at a tea stall and ordered tea with samosas.

We
missed that girl, whom we used to see daily in the bus, who may have
smiled at us, who may even have talked to us in that angelic voice, if
only we had the courage to talk.

Most of us grew out of it over here.

We all made new friends.
We all clung to each other.

We watched countless movies.
We even learnt to cook and throw pot luck parties where we always played Antakshari.

We confess that we even smiled at those beautiful girls across the street.

We all took trips to India; some annually, some less frequently.
We all tracked the "sale" events at Sears and KMart.
We all went to Indian Grocery Stores, and bought Rice and Rotis.

Most of us got married.

We,
went back home, searching for the love of a good woman-some found it in
the old acquaintances from across the bus-stands, some found it in
their parent's choice.

Some of us took a gamble and married the one looking closest to Aishwarya Rai.

Now
what do we do? We all work in software, We go to the local temple to
socialise, we attend movie screenings, and argue countless times that
Honda Accord is better than Toyota Camry or vice versa. At times, late
night before falling asleep we switch on the stereo and listen to that
old Hindi melody which makes us remember the land that was ours. We
recall the green grass, the muddy roads, the wet monsoons, the pretty
girls that we never talked to.

We hear the words speaking to us from across the oceans:

A Mother
who gave sour medicine to her son, because she wanted him to recover
soon, who let her son move miles apart though the thought was tearing
her apart, she let him go as she wanted him to be happy and successful,
who hides her agony in telling others that her son is
abroad.

A Father
who understands his son's ambitions and the limitation and frustration
he has to overcome of in India, who would not let his voice reveal that
says I'll miss you son !, I love you but am unable to express the
feeling.

A brother who
would miss the brotherhood, though it had often been fights and not
talking terms, who can deny the fact that a brother is still a brother,
a friend, Who expected you to understand him as his, and when you
didn't it upset but moving miles in distances has overlooked all minute
failures.

A sister who
would not have her adoring one to escort her to help her out of
troublesome situations, who knows she has to send 'Rakhi' by post,who
wishes he would turn up for her wedding, if not atleast to fondle her
baby that longs for a MAMA's (Uncle's) love & affection.

A friend,
who is left with mundane tasks, unable to exchange the chirpy jokes
& comments, discuss various thoughts from family, friends,
politics, & economics, who visits your home because he still
remembers you not only on a day but everyday. Who would jump with joy
on receiving a mail, who tries to keep himself free for all the days
when his friend is coming back on a holiday.

The girl next door,
who didn't know if she had to rejoice or not when she overheard that
the boy next door is moving away, who silently takes it that he has a
career and would wish for his best from afar, bids goodbye with a tear
in her eye.

The girl at the bus-stop,
who smiled at you and suddenly finds you no longer there, who changes
her route only to avoid the void which seems to be there at the same
bus-stop she had been once smiling.

The girl you are married to,
unable to understand why she is being sent to a far off land, waiting
for her man to send VISA papers, bearing the nagging question of
neighbours and relatives asking when are you leaving India.

The girl you got engaged to,
and is waiting for you to come back and tie the wedding knot, a social
and emotional security, who anxiously waits for his telephone calls and
greeting cards to reassure her that you will be back as her man.

Whatever
our roles, it is only to say that we still love and care for you,
wherever you are, you are still dear to us. We don't know what you have
to go through, we only know we have love & wishes to give for you.
You might have learnt or the circumstances might have taught you to
handle emotions and that time and work are more important than feelings
and their expressions but we are still in India and are still the same,
waiting and wishing for those who moved away from India,

INDIA - a land of love, emotion & sentiments....

Business is Business

One day many years ago at a school in South London a teacher said to the class of 5-year-olds, "I'll give $20 to the child who can tell me who was the most famous man who ever lived."

An Irish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St.Patrick." The teacher said, "Sorry Alan, that's not correct.

"Then a Scottish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St.Andrew." The teacher replied, "I'm sorry, Hamish, that's not Right either."

Finally, a Gujarati boy raised his hand and said, it was Jesus Christ."

The teacher said, "That's absolutely right, Rahul, come up here and I'll give you the $20."

As the teacher was giving Rahul his money, she said, "You know Rahul, since you're Gujarati; I was very surprised you said Jesus Christ."

Rahul replied, "Yes, in my heart I knew it was Lord Krishna, but business is business!"

Golmaal

I recently watched Golmaal (New). While it was no where near to the old classic (Amol Palekar & Uttpal Dutt), however, it certainly provides some great funny moments. I spcially like the song, where Paresh Rawal was telling Ajay Devgen and team that how he succeeded in love. This song is very well done.

Here is the clip of that song (Aage Peeche):

Die-Vorce

A married couple is driving along a highway doing a steady 40 miles perhour. The wife is behind the wheel. Her husband suddenly looks acrossat her and speaks in a clear voice. “I know we’ve been married fortwenty years, but I want a divorce.”

The wife says nothing, Keeps looking at the road ahead but slowlyincreases her speed to 45 mph. The husband speaks again. “I don’t wantyou to try and talk me out of it,” He says, “because I’ve been havingan affair with your best friend, And she’s a far better lover than youare.”

Again the wife stays quiet, But grips the steering wheel more tightlyand slowly increases the speed to 55. He pushes his luck. “I want thehouse,” he says insistently..Up to 60. “I want the car, too,” hecontinues. 65 mph. “And,” he says, “I’ll have the bank accounts, allthe credit cards and the boat!”

The car slowly starts veering towards a massive concrete bridge. Thismakes him nervous, so he asks her, “Isn’t there anything you want?”

The wife at last replies in a quiet and controlled voice. “No, I’ve got everything I need,” she says.
“Oh, really,” he inquires, “so what have you got?”

Just before they slam into the wall at 65 mph, The wife turns to him and smiles. “The airbag.”

Moral of the Story:

Women are clever!!!

Don’t mess with them!!
