Apps can represent much more than a fun game or distraction. There are quite a few productivity apps out there that can help us carry out daily tasks more efficiently. Let’s delve in to 20 of them: 1. Microsoft Office for Mobile Devices Those who love using Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint on their laptops will find it supremely convenient to gain the ability to create, alter and share the same documents and spreadsheets via their tablets and phones. The only drawback is that to use the full power of these apps, they cost $10.66 monthly — but it’s a fee well worth paying. 2. Dial My Calls Send a voice or text message to a list of phone numbers in seconds.  Save time on redundant calls by having this app send your message to everyone for you. 3. When I Work This app is the answer to scheduling your employees. Find out which of your workers are scheduled to work, where you need to fill in spaces in the schedule when you’re s...

Jon Schultz  Mfanyabiashara mmoja ameamua kutumia ‘fursa’ aliyoiona kupitia janga la Ebola linalosumbua maeneo mbalimbali ya dunia kwa sasa, kwa kuuza domain ya www.ebola.com kwa pesa nyingi. Jon Schultz anaiuza domain hiyo kwa $ 150,000 sawa na zaidi ya shilingi milioni 250. Jamaa huyo anayejiita ‘domain entrepreneur’ aliinunua domain hiyo miaka minne iliyopita (2008) kwa $13,500 sawa na zaidi ya shilingi milioni 22, na amedai kuwa alikuwa akisubiri wakati muafaka wa kuiuza. “Ebola.com would be a great domain for a pharmaceutical company working on a vaccine or cure, a company selling pandemic or disaster-preparedness supplies, or a medical company wishing to provide information and advertise services” Schultz aliiambia CNBC. Kwa mujibu wa Daily Mail, Schultz piz anamiliki domain zingine kama H1N1.com, birdflu.com, terror.com, PotassiumIodide.com, fukushima.com.

Have you considered how your posture, facial expressions, and other physical movements can impact on your career? If not, it may be time to take a closer look at what your body language says about you as a professional. Body language plays a crucial role in an individual’s success, regardless of his or her industry or position. Although their implementation and effects often seem subtle, positioning and movements work together to communicate specific attributes about a person. Thanks to the effective (or not so effective) use of body language, an unqualified professional can rise through the ranks, while the best minds in their fields may languish in middle management. Fortunately, anyone can learn how to leverage body language to their advantage, achieving better rapport and reputation among their colleagues. Career-Boosting Qualities Communicated by Body Language When it comes to influence in business, many factors contribute to how others perceive you. Choice ...

Look carefully, and you’ll notice that many of the most successful people in all walks of life — including Woody Allen, Alan Greenspan, and Condoleezza Rice — are musicians or former musicians. Why are there so many musicians present at the top of so many industries? Is it just a coincidence? As a musician myself, here’s what I think: 1. Musicians aren’t afraid to suck. Success has been linked with a high tolerance for stepping out of one’s comfort zone and being unafraid to make mistakes while taking a big learning curve. There are few things quite as painful as listening to a beginning musician. However, both musicians and entrepreneurs know that they don’t remain beginners forever. 2. Musicians stick with their instrument long enough to get good at it. Success has also been linked with hanging in there and seeing a venture through thick and thin to its completion. Mastering a musical instrument doesn’t happen overnight. Depending on the instrument, it can ...

  Being a strong, independent girl is harder than it used to be. For many girls, being considered strong and independent is a hard task, particularly in a world where more young people and graduates than ever are being driven back into living with their families, and into being underemployed (if they can find work at all). However, the definition of what it truly means to be a strong, independent woman has changed. Not every woman has her own apartment overlooking the city, or a string of adventurous lovers, or a high-powered job. Strong, independent girls are not defined by their circumstances; whether they’re from an Ivy League family or the first in their family to ever attend college or graduate high school, a strong, independent girl can find the best in her situation and work hard at improving it while retaining her sense of inner strength and ethical values. Stuck as how to become one of these strong, independent girls? Read below to check out what to avoid i...

If you love traveling, especially on the open road, then you probably appreciate a nice motorhome. The luxury of having your own vehicle with a bathroom, a kitchen, and all the other amenities that your house has makes adventuring in the wilds that much more enjoyable. Having space to lie down and legroom to stretch is a design feature that most RV drivers take for granted; the downtrodden students in their tiny, over-crowded Toyota with a 4-person tent packed into the trunk are likely at least a little envious. Recent years have seen a rise of bus-converted luxury motorhomes, transformations of buses into state-of-the-art mansions on wheels. While it’s true that most of the added features of these pristine machines certainly aren’t necessary, they’re definitely enviable. If you’re lucky enough to have the cash to burn and don’t want to leave your luxuries at home while enjoying a road trip, why not indulge in some extravagant motorhome comforts? And who ...

  You know the scene. You work a 16-hour day and you are stressed out. The fear of losing your job prevents you from refusing more work, projects and responsibilities. But what is the result? You are at high risk of suffering from depression, stress-related illnesses and your relationships suffer. You have set a dangerous precedent and your company may assume this is your normal workload. One study by the UK mental health charity,  Mind , found that more than 60% of those surveyed felt that management was of no help at all. The sad fact is that many line managers haven’t a clue as how to manage their employees. Your manager is not going to change but you are! Time to call a halt. Here are 9 ways to say no to work stress. ‘You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.’ – Christopher Columbus 1. You must make a choice The work will not decrease. In fact, you can expect a tsunami and your boss will still be just...
