I think I am Samsung...

         

         Having used iPhone and Blackberry,

Finding phones became a worry.

After Blackberry folded, Nokia plummeted,

iPhones seemed the only one merited.

Then iPhone became the alpha of pride and prestige,

The price point and value seemed a bit vestige.

For an all-time online person, the charge duration became omnipotent,

The fancy camera, security, and flashy curves seemed unimportant.

After much thought and frugal serendipity, Samsung was chosen,

Then eventually after relearning the use of mobile, an awakening had risen.

The flexibility was as much as a Chinese make and the usability of an Apple,

Slowly it dawned on me that sometimes the mid-path is often supple.

I tread the path of center, the tech not political, oh, time's up, my phone has rung,

Although I hope that Google, Nokia conjures up better, for now, I am Samsung.

Explaining Digital Marketing to Professionals on LinkedIn.

- Digital marketing, like managing salary expectations, requires regular and consistent spending, which is favored by native ad algorithms.

- Just as highly qualified and in-demand skills command higher bids, increasing your ad spend can attract more and better leads and prospects.

- If the look, presentation, and appeal of your ads are top-notch, you're more likely to attract prudent and long-term candidates and leaders.

- However, when a candidate shows up for the interview like engaging with your ad, if your offer and the experience fall short, the best prospects won't convert as intended.

Consistency in quality and spending, akin to great work ethic and values, is highly appreciated in digital marketing.

Promises of unrealistic perks are often blacklisted or downgraded by boosting platforms.

Staying updated with the latest advancements is crucial; otherwise, your ads are likely to underperform.

Lessons My Mother Taught Me That Still Guide My Everyday Life & Work


Mothers have a profound impact on shaping our character and values. These lessons have proven to be invaluable in facing challenges, maintaining relationships, and striving for personal and professional growth.

1. Start with the Easiest, and It Gets Easier: Begin tasks with the easiest part, and as you build momentum, even the most challenging endeavours become manageable.

2. Respect and Learn from Your Opponents: Give your best until the very end, respect opponents who have outdone you, and congratulate them regardless of the result.

3. Embrace Wholehearted Commitment: Dedicate yourself fully to tasks, projects, and relationships, as half-hearted efforts rarely yield satisfactory results.

4. Focus on the Present, Give Your Full Attention: Be fully present when spending time with someone, actively listening and engaging in the present moment.

5. Silence is an Opportunity to Learn: Practise active listening and use moments of silence to absorb knowledge, analyse information, and internalise lessons.

6. Surround Yourself with Those Better Than You: Seek the company of individuals who excel in areas where you aspire to improve, and support and share knowledge with others.

7. Make Every Committed "Yes" Count: Prioritise commitments that align with your values and goals, and deliver on promises made.

8. Aim for the Highest Peak without Lowering Others: Set ambitious goals without bringing others down, maintaining empathy, kindness, and respect for others.

9. Stand Out without Proving Yourself to Others: Be authentic, express your ideas confidently, and make a meaningful impact without feeling the need to prove yourself to others.

Conclusion: While these are just a few lessons, I invite you to share your own insights and experiences. All the best on your journey of growth and development.
