Many of us would agree to the fact that real business can only be made with sheer elegance and some level of sophistication, that doesn’t mean you got to have costly products for selling in business or make look your business outlet look ultra modern. A certain level of sophistication and true serving is all it takes to achieve a feeling of graciousness in the business. We might have ourselves noticed and even experienced how we got attracted towards some stylish product even if we went for buying something else or how we increased our budget to buy a particular product. It’s a human nature to get attracted towards good things in life and good things don’t come easy, they aren’t difficult too but a true sense of taste and presence of mind makes it all coming at your doorsteps.

To attain a level of elegance in your business products or business outlet you don’t need to spend some billion dollar money in to getting the right professionals or interior designers, just understand the true taste of elegance, lets discuss few elements which creates elegance. Elegance, the term itself mean a lot when we use it for describing any product, or feel the interiors or luxury feeling of seeing the elegance of matters. You would notice its all worthwhile after spending a

little money from your savings to achieve that level of sophistication.

  1. Symmetry is one necessary element for creating elegance, that doesn’t necessarily mean that each side of the object has to look similar. Sometimes it’s so difficult to find symmetry in a design, or an object or a product. Symmetry here means simply the pattern that is self-replicating and self-similar patterns that makes it so decent.
  2. Seduction is another important element for elegance in a design of the object, in the object itself, in its use, in its functionality or simply sound seducing when put up somewhere. The main thing here is to achieve the seductive feeling and also to create curiosity amongst people to know more about the product functions and styles.
  3. Some people are of the opinion to keep adding things to attain elegance but that is not the case if you are really looking to have elegance, have subtraction as the main ingredient that you would be using in your business. I have seen so many examples where people decreased their styling in a product or removed excessive accessory in the

    business and how it quickly attracted people of all genres.

  4. To have elegance throughout the life cycle of a product it should be presentable and worth remembering even after ages, it should have the power of sustainability. No matter, whatever the condition, it should be able to sustain it in the markets throughout. That is true elegance.

If you have good taste for finest things in life, you will not need any lessons or advice to create elegance in business. The true sense of style comes from your inner self after all what you term as STYLE was as well created by someone else, the difference is that you just liked it and you think its stylish. Make your own style and rock your business!

Be Aware Of The Same Rhythmic Words!

Read this, “She sells sea shells on the Sea Shore”, how does it feel to speak all this words at one go in a sentence, some might have tumbled upon or some might have even read it half way and then repeated the sentence. It’s a common phenomena where we often come across such words which are mind confusing, although the sounds might be the same, the words mean different, spellings are different, grammatically they are used in different contexts and so on. The language English have many such words in its dictionary, even if you are a highly English literate person, you are sure to make the mistakes in selecting the perfect use of such words. These words actually change the whole meaning to what the author is trying to say in his/her writings.

same rhythmic wordsAs per the research, it’s a human nature that while reading a word in a sentence a person browses through the whole sentence so as to mentally prepare the mind of spelling out the next few words, it often happens while someone is writing, there is often misuse of similar types of words like then-than, this-these, she-sea, to-too, sells-shells, etc. even if the reader might come across such mistakes, in 99% of cases, he wouldn’t be able to make out the mistake the reason being it sounds so similar with actual meanings of the sentences. Today, we are going to discuss few of these misspelt words in English dictionary and try to find out how to make our English better.

Then-Than – these are the most misused words I have come across, the word “then” is used for reference to time or to portray something that results in some action. Most of the time you might have noticed the word “then” is used after “and”,

the example of such sequence is, “he robbed the bag and then he entered the departmental store”. The word “than” is used to replace instead of or meaning a preference, the example is, “I had rather party with my friends than my enemies”. The correct proofreading in your document will help you make use of the correct “then” or “than”, you have to think wisely.

This-These – the word “this” is mostly used to state a particular object or a thing, mostly used for singular objects and “these” are used to state a group of, or the herd, or more than few things together.

For example: 1) this bag belongs to me, 2) are these books yours? The words this and these are quite confusing to spell, when it comes to spoken words but that largely depends on the writer how he wants to say something, the correct usage will never lead to any confusion.

She-Sea – there are very confused names in English language, to study English grammatically is not an easy job, especially when it gets difficult to pronounce the words sounding so similar having different meanings. The above words, she and sea might not be difficult for a person who speaks English but for non English speakers, it might coz a serious sleep of tongue, do you agree with me?

The examples are: 1) she is my best friend; 2) I could see the vast treasure below inside the sea.

To-Too – it is simple the word “too” refers to the number 2, this word is used to imply as something similar or same types. It also means something which is in excess. The word “to” is used normally as to speak of some action, of giving, taking, bringing, going, etc. it is the most often used word, the examples are: 1) you gave me too much of drinks yesterday night, 2) I am going to market.

Sells-Shells – just one glance and you would understand the difference between the two words but they are often misused in the type of example I stated at the starting of my blog. Both of these words are simple to understand although meanings takes you to another world of English diction,

the examples are: 1) he sells cookies by the roadside, 2) the hard core shells are being sold at the outlet.

Affect-Effect – these are the most difficult for people to interpret and use them in sentences, each of these words are used differently as noun and a verb. When the word “effect” is used as a noun, it means result and when used as a verb means bring about. The word “Affect” means to influence,

the examples are: 1) your suggestion was very effective as it affected many lives, 2) the challenge might effect or serve a good reason for working of the whole company.

Farther-further – the word “farther” means a distance and the word “further” refers to quantity or time, for example: 1) how much farther do we walk? 2) You can do your further studies abroad, 3) try to get further knowledge on your degree.

Cents-Since-Sense – cents are the coins, since is used for saying the time reference and sense means intelligence or feelings,

the examples are: 1) how many cents you want? 2) I can do anything, since you are here 3) do you have any common sense?

The above mentioned are just few of the words which are often misused and as a result there is a huge communication gap between people and often there are mistakes and misunderstandings happening. But with perfect knowledge and use of words as required, you can make your sentences perfect.

I propose to my readers, to send in more such words which might be helpful to other people online.
