The word self-mentoring explains it is an achiever willing to take the initiative while accepting responsibility for their own development by devoting time to navigate within the culture of the environment in order to make the most of opportunity to strengthen competencies needed to enhance job performance and career progression.

Self-mentoring to getting promoted from the inside out. For most of our years, we expect someone to tell us what to do next- guide us to the next steps. But do you know, it is just our mindset. You do not need anyone to tell you what your next plan is. You need to push yourself from leaning back to pursue your dreams.

It has been discovered that bullying is not only limited to teenagers. In fact more and more people are reporting bullies at workplaces. According to a 2010 survey conducted by the Workplace Bullying Institute, 35% of the American workforce (or 53.5 million people) has directly experienced bullying--or “repeated mistreatment by one or more employees that takes the form of verbal abuse, threats, intimidation, humiliation or sabotage of work performance"--while an additional 15% said they have witnessed bullying at work. Approximately 72% of those bullies are bosses. Which means, bullying at workplace can occur between boss and an employee or among co-workers but it is most difficult to deal with a bullying situation by a boss since the boss is responsible for your advancement within the organisation.

“It’s not personal, it’s business” is a memorable quote from the classic Meg Ryan film “You’ve Got Mail”. A film that captures the very real problem of how, and when, to separate your personal feelings from your business decisions.

Personal and professional are two different spheres and the separation of personal and professional is as important for a healthy lifestyle just as the separation of church and state is to a happy democracy. But this has been a really common problem that a lot of entrepreneurs and business owners have, is that, their work lives and their personal lives tend to mix together. People need to look at separation from two perspectives: inner and outer. A separation needs to be made in our minds as to where the boundaries between work and home are, and to recognise where it is acceptable for those boundaries to mix (and where it is not too).
