How much I know about you !!
Based on our interactions, I know the following about you.
• You have a great need for other people to like and admire you.
• You have a tendency to be critical of yourself.
• You have a great deal of unused capacity which you have not turned to your advantage.
• While you have some personality weaknesses, you are generally able to compensate for them.
• Disciplined and self-controlled outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure inside.
• At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing.
• You pride yourself as an independent thinker and do not accept others' statements without satisfactory proof.
• You have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others. • At times you are extroverted, affable and sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary and reserved.
• Some of your aspirations tend to be pretty unrealistic. Security is one of your major goals in life.

Deliberate practice improves our success in an interview
Practice is the act of carrying out an activity again and again, to gain mastery over an activity. Psychologist Professor Anders Ericsson coined the term deliberate practice. Talent is important but it is the deliberate practice which makes an ordinary man into extra-ordinary person.
Deliberate practice is purposeful and systematic. You need to have a specific goal, stay focussed, avoid distractions, follow a regular practice schedule, and step up the game in terms of tougher challenges, enable correct feedback to build and gain mastery. Breaking down a task and improving small chunks through regular practice with immediate and correct feedback helps hone the expertise. Deliberate practice is learning by doing and stepping into an uncomfortable zone.
