Raise your hand

 The raise your hand strategy is well-known and practiced widely by people who do talking from any field. It is a simple and a call to action strategy. What it does is helps to engage people, more precisely, the audience with whoever giving the talk. We can call him the controller. He controls the crowd and their emotions. A well-practiced and experienced man can make people laugh or cry when he wants. That’s why they often let people laugh at the beginning by cracking some old jokes and making them emotionally attached to the end.

 To actively engage a group of people is difficult than an individual. Because attention diversifies and an individual in the audience gets a fraction of it. So, here the possibility is to make them concentrated, fully engaged. Everyone knows that when the number of people increases, the effect of it which it reaches fades. As a result, the core intention of spreading the notion becomes vain. Only vagueness exists. So what successful entrepreneurs and speakers do is that they apply call to action strategy. Raise your hand is one of them.

How they begin is they ask few questions which they know the majority will show up their hand and finally to a question which most people hesitantly pull their hands inside further. This is a good engaging mechanism and powerful too.

But learning about the different methods and concepts, they can actually make a better decision.

Do the purposeful work

People do start something as soon as they find interesting stuff. The curiosity behind what is in it is the driver. They see someone doing a particular thing the he never tried before. So a keen interest develops inside him and he eventually think about it for a while. If he sees it again the curiosity rises again and the urge to do it develops more seriously. As a result the temptation increases so rapidly eventually leaving him to do that. This is the base behind every new act. We see people doing things they never did before. But this is not the right way or specifically not the right mentality. Because without the understanding of what they are doing and in the absence of purposeful why, things won’t last. When the curiosity and entertainment ceases, it gets boring and frustrating. The reason is the factor that motivated him to perform this activity is no longer alive and he needs new injector which is not available. So the easiest option is to quit. To continue anything we must b...

Make a bright 'present'

 The best way to make best way is to make best present. It is no use fearing about what would happen to the unveiled future. Tomorrow doesn’t fold its way, I mean not technically but looking from a perspective of destiny leading life. Each moment spent is a forging sword for the future. Making a better future is certainly possible. The most certain way is make the present better. Present is the only medium where we can channel the energy. Energy could be channelled to any direction. Directions leads to the destiny. That’s why most successful people rely on present and advise us to do the same. You must have heard of you want do something new, do it now. Which is true in every sense. If you don’t act now, you won’t act forever. It is true in technical terms. There is nothing happening anywhere in the world other than now. Actions are only possible in the now. Every action that took and are about to take must manifest through now. It’s now or never.    The reason why most t...

Analyse and accept

It is very hard to articulate how the things unfold. It never leave like how we expected to happen. We can either get thrill from it from it for all the unexpected moves or we can shift ourselves in the dark with an aversion. We can actually make to different outcome from these two options. But only thing that highlights at the end is the effect it made it ourselves. One brings good and other, not necessarily bad, but nothing. It is same as not doing anything. Whenever we face with a situation, there is an equal probability to make it as we expected or it turns other way. Seeing that possibility before it happen will not certainly refrain it from happening, because whatever gonna happen is gonna happen. But those perception can mould our lives by accepting the situation. When we start to accept the things, we starts to analyze. When we start to analyze, we starts to improve by making good decisions. So whatever the outcome, even it is on our side, accepting and analyzing is useful. Tha...

Society can be a trap

There are lot of traps out there. Only after falling or getting out of that trap we realize that we were bondaged for a very long time. We were born into the society trap where everything is predefined. Everything is written and all we have to do is to obey them. We are not allowed to wander with our will and certainly not with any other rules. Predefined are the prime ones. When we look at those cultural scribings of activism, we could see that everything is limiting and designed to refrain is from our true potential. The hardest thing is not being unaware of this trap, it is being in the trap even after knowing you are in a trap. This makes us to think differently. Because we found something, probably, no one around found. It would be game changer for everyone. It could transform the society and culture, paving a more promising future for the generations to come. But what happen when we introduce this theory to those blind people is quite depressing. They mock and joke you, laugh a...
