<span style="color: #282625; font-size: 12pt;">Have you ever had the feeling that you missed someone so much, you didn't want to get up from bed. When thoughts of someone meet you smile and cry. When you wanted to go back in time and spend more days with that special person. When someone broke your heart, but you still find it difficult let them go. Letting go is the final stage of grieving over someone, weather dead or alive. Letting go allows you to give up the pain that you have held for long.

It means confronting your unpleasant emotions about the past and becoming comfortable with them. If you find it difficult to let go, here are 10 tips to help you. How to let go:</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Being a business writer, I need to communicate a lot with people on emails. Every time I get in touch with a prospective client, I run into an interesting phenomena – a lot of people sound GREAT until I email them and get a response in return to discover the quality of their writing is, shall we say, substandard. Even worse, such people manage to slip through the cracks and reach higher positions. Some mails are so badly written that I can’t even discern what the person actually wants?<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Given the importance of documentation and communication, aren’t writing skills necessary for employees, especially when facing customers? Why are those getting neglected? It is the “cellular phone” culture to blame?<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Yes, they do allow us to interact so quickly. Whatever it is, whether we require instant email, chat, internet, we can get it right where we are. I feel this has bred a new kind of laziness. No one wants to wait for anything. Most of the cell phone users don’t even wish to take the time to spell whole words (remember IDK, CU, TC…?). It isn't so much that some people feel short of communicating. They just wish to develop the old, appropriate ways of communicating. I am conscious of my rant which is a bit extreme, but I think about it sometime.

They fail to estimate the power of good words, right punctuations and properly constructed sentences while posting their web content, Ezine article, blog post content or an Ehow guide. What to know what most miss while finalizing their content?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Spelling, grammar and punctuation:</u></b> Basic but usually overlooked. When someone’s creating their <a href="http://writingroutes.com/">web content</a>, the easiest-to-avoid error can be their downfall.<span> </span>Hard to believe but there are thousands of websites with the web content that has 30-40 run-on sentences.<span> </span>You just don’t need to write the web content; you need to get it proofread as well to avoid this common content writing mistake.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Ever Changing voices:</u></b> Some writers make such an amateur shift from first person to third that it becomes almost impossible to read the web content. “We” to “I”, “you” to “his” or “I” to “them” breaks the consistency of the web content leaving the readers to scratch their heads as to who you are referring to.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Excessive hype:</u></b> Web content is written for a purpose, right?<span> </span>Maybe you wish to promote your newest fashion line. If you could have it your way, you might probably want to write everything little detail about the product. Just how great it is going to be, how plus size women need not feel to be left out, the exclusivity of fabric and so on.<span> </span>Caution: readers will at once shift from your web content if it is only promotional.<span> </span>Give them something from what they scan.<span> </span>There are millions of sales pitches lying out there and they don’t want to waste time reading one more.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Staying specific.</u></b><span> </span>Your reader wants info. They land on your <a href="http://writingroutes.com/">webcontent</a> article because of the promise its title does to deliver. But if you start-off writing too broadly without any sense of direction, as a common error to do while compiling the web content, they’ll soon loose interest in reading and will shift to other resource.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Complicating the content:</u></b> If you want to show your unusual talent of using ten different adjectives in one single sentence, write other things like novel, essays or case studies for that. Web content needs to be kept simple and straight.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Spelling conventions:</u></b> Every website demands to be written in the local dialect. If you can’t distinguished between spellings such as ‘colour’ and “color”, “cheque” and “check” or “materialise” and “materialize”, then you ought to hire a professional web content writer. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Need of the content:</u></b> Are your readers expected to take some action as soon as they hit on your page or your web content is just to give them weighty information? A news release is written differently than a promotional article which is unlike writing for kids. Unless you understand the precise requirement, you’ll not be able to write a good copy.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Weak headlines.</u></b> Unique and <a href="http://writingroutes.com/">creative headline</a> have gathered more interest in past and they will continue doing so in future. Using a keyword in the headline ensures the web content gets picked up by search engines quickly.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><b><u>Introductory paragraph.</u></b> Make it dull and see your readers crossing your web content, or make it compelling enough to entice visitor go through your entire page – choice is yours. Ideally, the introductory lines should give a sneak peek of what’s in store for the reader in rest of the article. Making it witty, catchy or funny will get your content good response.<iframe allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fpages%2FWriting-Routes%2F111030498955708&layout=button_count&show_faces=true&width=450&action=recommend&colorscheme=light&height=21" style="border: none; height: 21px; overflow: hidden; width: 450px;"></iframe></span></div>Nitima Soodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15475233496880000861noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432052791647318681.post-41700747244521676772011-09-20T12:46:00.000+05:302011-09-20T12:46:57.823+05:307 Ways to Enhance your Promo Writing<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">CBT </a>is a one-day <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">motorcycle training course</a> aimed at teaching the practitioner basics of riding a motorcycle. As a preliminary vehicular training course, it must be completed by anyone wishing to ride a motorcycle unaccompanied on the city roads. Upon completion, the training remains valid for 2 years. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">The CBT is based on 5 key elements which strongly influence a person’s acquiring the certification. Any person wishing to go for it needs to start with an eyesight test. As a candidate, you must be able to read a number plate containing figures and letters 79.4 mm or 3.1 inches high, from a minimum distance of 67 feet or 20.5 meters in a good daylight.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">Element B</a> calls for the right information of the bike or moped for which you wish to obtain the certificate. You must be aware of control positions, left and right handlebar controls, Instrument panel and the basic machine checks, including wheeling, stand, braking and starting and stopping the engine.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">Element C of CBT</a> contains clutch control, systematic gear changing, right braking, rear observation, indicating and maneuvering the machine, OSM/PSL routine, stopping and<span> </span>moving off from the curb, left and right turnings and the smooth maneuvering of ‘U’ turns. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">The next element is a classroom session that familiarizes the candidate about the dangers of riding on the road. This element is very important and stress if given on completing it satisfactorily before any formal road riding is undertaken. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">The Element E is all about road riding, with one other student, to put into practice everything that the candidate has learnt over the past elements. This requires demonstration of coping with the hazards safely by rightly maneuvering traffic lights, junctions, roundabouts, crossings, bends and other obstructions </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">CBT is short for <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">Compulsory Basic Training</a>. Unlike the common perception, it is not a test. For a person willing to get rid of commuting in the tubes and buses, a personal 50 cc scooter or 125 cc motorbike is definitely a good option.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">To start riding a scooter, moped or motorbike, CBT is the course you need to get certification in. Considered a continual assessment, the course length usually takes a full day to complete. A person meeting all the standard requirements of each element proceeds to next until the course is completed, at which point the CBT instructor issues the candidate’s <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">CBT certificate</a> (DL196). </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">You can take the <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">CBT </a>course on a 50 cc or 125 cc automatic scooter or geared motorbike. It can either be of your own or you can hire one from where you are doing the training.

<div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">Compulsory Basic Training</a> was launched on 1 December 1990, making it compulsory for all new provisional licence holders of automatic scooters, geared motorbikes or plain mopeds to complete it before riding on the road. In CBT, exception has been given to those who have passed a comprehensive moped test since December 1990. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Holders of full car licence who have qualified after 1 February 2001 are also required to complete a CBT course before riding a two wheeler on the road. Contrary to a popular belief, the compulsory basic Training is not an exam, and there is no test. It is only a<a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/"> course of training</a> that an individual is required to complete satisfactorily before riding a moped, scooter or motorbike. This basic training has proved to be a great success in achieving the aim it was designed for – improving road safety and lessened accidents involving two wheelers’ riders. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">CBT </a>requires a provisional licence holder to undergo the course of on-site and on-road training. On the completition of this course, they are issued a 'Certificate of Completion of an Approved Training Course' (DL196). This validates the provisional entitlement on their license and permits that to on their vehicle on the road, while displaying an ‘L’ on their number plate.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><br />

<div class="MsoNormal"></div><div class="MsoNormal">Though many people find riding a motorcycle a fun activity but it is a potentially fatal street machine as well. Every city seeks to create secure street conditions for its motorists. To promote <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">motorcycle safety</a> for all <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">London</a>, Manchester and other UK drivers, the city council has approved some motorcycle safety training courses that are also approved by the internationally fames <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">Motorcycle Safety Foundation</a>.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">London’s Motorcycle Safety Program</a> provides a good incentive for those people who complete their motorcycle safety training. Those who do effectively finish a <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">motorcycle training course</a> can also get a waiver on the second part of the London motorcycle license test. This come in addition to the benefit of learning the safe way to operate and ride a motorcycle. For most people, this waiver implies saving of time and hassle of borrowing a registered and safe motorcycle for the driving test.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Also note that there approved <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">London motorcycle classes</a> offer a motorcycle and helmet for their participants. Therefore if you don’t have a bike, you can get it from them for the safety training.</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">For those of you, who see the benefit of this training; take out time to visit the London Motorcycle Safety Program at <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/</a>. Once there, hover over the basic menu options and select "Locations" that are near you. You then click find the course that will then link you to the enrolle"Find a RiderCourse" link to get to the Motorcycle Safety Foundation's RiderCourse Enrollment System. Note that there are two types of courses. You can simply take the Basic RiderCourse (BRC) motorcycle safety training to get your waiver. </div><br />

There’s a huge difference between purchasing a poorly fitted <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">motorcycle</a> helmet that may lead a rider to untimely death and a properly fitting helmet that can save the rider’s life in case of any emergency.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Here are some tips you can keep handy while purchasing a new helmet, compiled by the instructors of a <b><i><u><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">leading motorcycle traininginstitute</a></u></i></b> of London</span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The first rule of buying a <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">motorcycle</a> helmet is to try it first. Most people take an incorrect decision of buying just on the looks of the helmet. A good helmet not only fits the rider’s head perfectly but also save the person from getting hurt in case of emergencies. The main ways to determine the fit of the motorcycle includes symmetry, shape, color and durability. </span></div><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The second rule of buying a <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/">perfect motorcycle</a> helmet is to rate it on the comfort ability factor. When trying the helmet before buying, keep it on for at least 5-7 minutes and if after taking it out there is any redness on your face, neck or head, that piece is not for you.</span></div><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The third most important rule of buying a new helmet is to look out for its certifications. Since by nature riding a motorcycle is a thrilling activity, it is important to buy a helmet of a good make. Also, make sure that it is certified by the Department of Transportation as meeting basic safety standards and is also carries Snell certification. Both these certifications assure that the motorcycle helmets that are approved with these certifications meet minimum safety standards. </span></div><br />

Fraction of this license requirement also includes taking a <strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" target="_blank">mandatory motorcycle license class</a></span></em></strong>. This becomes important for teenage motorcycle riders seeking a license and ride permit. For those above 18, the common practice involves driving motorcycle test only, for which they are applicable only after attending a <strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" target="_blank">motorcycle license class</a></span></em></strong>.<br />
<br />
If you are interested in <strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" target="_blank">learning motorcycle</a></span></em></strong>, the best way to begin is by knowing the latest motorcycle training requirements of your city. As stated above, not all the applicants are required to undergo through same process. The most consistent thing a participant will find among motorcycle training requirements is what most approved bike training classes have on their curriculum.<br />
<br />
The next step to qualify for the licence is to find the <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" target="_blank"><strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;">motorcycle training agency</span></em></strong> </a>that issues motorcycle licenses and driving permits. Searching such establishments online is fairly easy and can be done by logging on to any search engine and entering terms like “motorcycle training UK” or “motorcycle class in London”. More information can also be gathered from your nearby driver's license office as well.</div>Nitima Soodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15475233496880000861noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432052791647318681.post-40225075558237451762011-07-18T20:49:00.002+05:302011-07-18T20:49:56.151+05:30Motorcycle Training for BeginnersRiding a <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">motorcycle</a></span> is unlike driving a car. Since these are two-wheeled vehicles, they can easily topple if stopped suddenly. A moving motorcycle is led by gyroscopic forces, something which is very unique to all two-wheeled machines. Only a skilled motorcyclist must be allowed to handle a bike and for this reason, governments of different countries have made it a point to allow only those people to ride who have a license. In a nutshell, every motorcycle enthusiastic must learn to art to steer, brake and change the gears of this machine.<br />
Even after the careful monitoring by the administration, biking constitutes over 45% of serious accidents on UK roads. Most of these are caused due to partial negligence by the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">motorcycle</a></span> rider or others not looking carefully enough at the road. Riding defensively is the basic of any vehicle driving. For anyone interested in getting the licence to become a motorcyclist and ride without “L” plates on UK roads, there are some steps that are required to be followed.<br />
<br />
After <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">getting a provisional licence</a>, the person needs to take <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">CBT (Compulsory Basic Training)</a> and buy, hire or borrow a learner bike and helmet etc. The motorcyclist is also required to buy self and vehicle’s insurance and after that, he or she can start practicing on the roads for the test. One of the most useful practices to learn new driving is to go through books that describe highway and other road codes. Once a person is familiar with those, learning to ride the <a href="http://www.northlondon-mct.co.uk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">motorcycle</a> becomes an easy process.<br />
After practicing, the person is expected to undertake and clear the theory test, followed by practical in the presence of an expert rider. Once both the tests are cleared, you are free to remove “L” plates and ride freely within the country.Nitima Soodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15475233496880000861noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7432052791647318681.post-79277697880205982292011-05-08T23:23:00.001+05:302011-05-09T17:31:17.550+05:30Transform Your Business Using Outsourcing<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%;">For most companies, the verdict to outsource is a plain question of advantage.
