We all have been there, and it is a golden opportunity if you are at the other end of the line i.e. the one waiting for a new employee to join the workplace. It is your chance to make someone feel welcomed and a part of the team, the family. A welcoming party is not what we are suggesting here. You can not always go ahead and organize a party amid a working day. We have come up with a list of 10 Welcome Kit ideas for you to make the perfect first impression of your team and the work environment. You Are The Brand Kit - Welcoming a new employee to the office and making them feel like a cardinal part of the company is important for so many reasons. Throwing in some corporate essentials like t-shirts, pens, notebooks, company mugs, etc. will tell them the same. An employee should own personalized company freebies. ‘Get To Know Me’ Kit - The nervousness of the first day at work is even more absolute during lunch hours when the new member is trying to fit in. A diary or a handbook filled with fun facts about employees, their achievements, memorable moments at the office is a great way to introduce the employee to the team in more depth. It will also give a view of the work environment. Tech Kit - Giving a tech-comfort kit to your employee will prepare them for their workdays. With almost everything depending upon the technology, being Tech–smart is necessary. Make sure they settle in with portable chargers, earbuds, laptop stand, microfiber cloth, etc. All these will lead to a hassle-free, productive day for them. Office Essentials - No working desk looks complete without office essentials. Give your new employee a welcoming stationery kit with notebooks, pens, an organizer, a pen stand, etc. for a clutter-free office desk. Thrive and Bloom Kit - A small indoor plant is a beautiful welcome gift that says ‘we wish to see you thrive and bloom in this nurturing new environment’.

The notes taking habit is something you should encourage in your employees. The Mindfulness Kit - It is not just the physical health that matters, but also the mental health. Giving your employee a kit dedicated to mental health will make them feel cared for and calm. Add on some Planners, books, a gratitude journal & cards, a stress ball, some chocolates, a meditation music tape, essential oils, fragranced candles, etc. in the kit. A healthy employee will bring a healthy attitude to work. Snack-A-Little Kit - They say that the way to someone’s heart is through their stomach.

10 Must-Haves For Your Office Desk
The First 18-22 years of our lives are a preparatory period for us to make a living in this world in one way or the other. But do these years actually prepare us for a work-life? Amid all the important and beautiful places we visit in our lives, two places become a constant, HOME, and OFFICE. Our home is our comfort place. But, it is equally important to feel the same about our workplace. What would make it more welcoming, you ask? One way, we say is to make your tiny space more personal, comfortable, and also productive. Here’s a list of 10 things we believe you must have for your office desk: Stationery: A notebook and a pen are going to be the most important things on your work desk. Writing things down be it your tasks, plan, or important work-related details will always give you better clarity. Also, they come in handy in meetings. Desk Organizer: An organized work desk always boosts mood and productivity. Make sure your desk is not cluttered. Having a desk organizer and pen stand will keep your things protected and in place. A clean desk leads you to a chaos-less workday. Desk Calendar: Digital world is ruling at the moment but it has also become a distraction. We depend upon our phones for even the smallest of tasks. Having a desk calendar will prevent you from wasting time on your phone and also be helpful in terms of remembering important meeting dates or deadlines. Laptop Stand: You are likely to spend most of your office hours seated in front of your desk. It gives rise to a lot of health issues like Cervical pains, backaches, etc. Thus, maintaining a good posture becomes very important. A laptop stand comes into use when the table height is not appropriate for you. It will help you keep a good posture throughout the day. Ear-Plugs: Creativity is something that often requires soul-searching or well, just some alone time of thinking and perception. It is hard to achieve that in an office filled with co-workers. Noise-canceling earplugs can become your best friend at work. They’ll be there for you whenever you need some time to relax and ponder. Stress Ball: As fun as earning a living seems, it is also a stressful thing. There are a hundred things you face in your adult life, work or non-work related. Staying focused at work and being productive is harder than it looks. A stress ball is a small ball that you can squeeze. It helps in reducing stress and staying focused at the same time. A Weekly Pad: Have a weekly pad and make use of it by listing your To-Dos, quotes, ideas, etc. Make it the visual representation of your brain. Having a weekly plan is something we highly recommend. Photos: As much as anyone says that you should keep your personal and professional life separate, it is practically impossible to do so. What we can instead do is, embrace both and make the best out of it, for both. Having happy pictures or photos of your loved ones can instantly improve your mood and make you feel better, blessed, and motivated to work harder. Water Bottle and Snacks: Do not ever forget to carry a water bottle to work. It does not make you look childish. It makes you look responsible. Water keeps you hydrated, prevents headaches and other medical issues. Some water and snacks can energize you for the tasks at hand. You'll be less likely to feel exhauster and what’s that new slag? “Hangry” A Small Indoor Plant: The color green has a calming effect on us and flowers make us feel happy. Having a small indoor plant, say a succulent, jade, or Syngonium will also make your work desk look more personal, comforting, and inviting. Also, it is never bad to add some color to your life and your workplace. There you go. These are our picks of the 10 things we feel you ought to have on your office desk. If there’s something you want to add, feel free to tell us in the comments.

How To Start And Maintain Your Travel Journal For 2022
Travel. “Trav.el, Tra-vel “ : to move from one place to another : to go on a trip or journey, to go to a place and especially one that is far away Traveling is no more just going from one place or having a trip. It has become a new way of life. Traveling rejuvenates us. It gives us the break, the peace we much require. It is often said that our mind needs new images and that is why it is always suggested to take walks in nature and discover new parks and roads that will refresh our mind. Traveling takes this to the next level. It gives our mind new visuals, surroundings, new experiences, a chance to learn about new customs, religions, taste different foods, make new companions, enhance our creativity and allow us to know ourselves better. In short, it broadens our horizons. What are Travel Journals? Travel Journal is a collection of your adventures, memories, learnings, new experiences that you gain during your travel. It is a diary/ notebook filled with the life you have lived or want to live on a trip. It may include: Planning of a journey aka places you want to visit, things you want to try at those places, etc. Pictures from your travels A collection of things like air/bus/train tickets, food bills, stamps, etc Sketches, painting you made of places/buildings A detailed experience- what all you did, how it felt, what did you learn, etc Reflections- Log your personal growth How to start your Travel Journal in 2022? Journaling should not be a wearying task to you. It needs to come naturally. You may already have a travel journal but fail to maintain it. There are things you can do to get to the point of finding happiness and peace in maintaining a travel journal. The first step is to prepare you for this. Get Yourself a Journal - If you want to inspire yourself to begin this journey, might as well get your hands on that pretty journal you have your eyes on. You can also convert a notebook or a diary into your travel journal. Pens, colors, etc- Keep pens, colors, painting colors, etc in handy. Choose whatever works for you. Camera- You can use your phone’s camera to click pictures of places, buildings, food, your companions, random things, etc throughout your travels and later print them out to paste in your travel journal. Stamps/Stickers/Washi tapes/Printables- These things make your journal look more aesthetic and pretty. It is not mandatory to buy these. Begin your journal and see if you need to add more things to your journal. Don’t invest in something you won’t use. That is it. This is all you need to begin your Travel Journal. A pen, a notebook, and some inspiration go a long way. It is never too late to take up journaling. How can you successfully maintain a Travel Journal? Here are a few tips that will help you get a hold of Travel journaling and keep you motivated: Journal what you plan to do and learn on a trip. Have a basic layout. Write about what you think the trip would be like. This in turn will also excite you. Keep your journal in your handbag so that you can journal whenever and wherever you feel like it. This will keep you regular in your entries. Journal often. It shouldn’t feel like a task. Rather it should make you feel peaceful. Writing things down, drawing, etc makes us calmer. Choose a certain theme or aesthetics to go with if you wish to. But if you want to go free and pour your soul into this journal the way you like it, then go ahead. Write about how things made you feel, about people you met, describe things in detail if you feel like. The goal of Journals is to engage you in a reflective activity. Paste photos, stamps, bills, tickets, draw sketches, etc. to bring your journal to life. Also, it will look so pretty and you’d just want to keep journaling for the rest of your life. Journal at the end of the day. The memories of the day are fresh in your mind so whenever you get to your room to lay down, take out your journal and write it all down. After the trip, when you come home, settle down and take out your journal and start pasting those photos, write about how the journey affected you, what made you super happy or disappointed you. This reflection after a trip is very important. Go ahead and make a tour guide. Flaunt this baby whenever someone needs help planning a trip. Look back at these times sometimes, to re-live those memories, to remember things and people that you might have forgotten. Journal about places you want to travel to in 2022 and keep checking them off from the list with each trip. Lastly, Plan your next trip. But also, leave space for the unplanned fun because the unplanned moments are what make life worth living. Journaling is a stress-relieving activity that you must include in your daily routine, be it in any form. So, go ahead and begin this journey. In a year, see how it has changed you and come back to this blog and tell us how it went for you.
WHY ARE PERSONALIZED CORPORATE GIFTS IMPORTANT?
Since the existence of life in this universe, Gifts have been a way of showing love, respect, care, and value. We give our loved ones presents on various occasions and festivals to show them that we value their presence in our life. The same is now adopted at workplaces. We practically spend most of our lives with our co-workers, employees, employer and business partners, etc. It is only natural to show them we care and value them. And what better way than to make things a little personal? A simple imprint of a logo can make the gift much more personal and important in one’s life. To convince you about the same, we have come up with 5 reasons why personalized corporate gifts are important: Brand-Customer Relations - Every relationship in this entire world needs cherishing and nurturing. When you give your clients a personalized gift, it conveys that you are Thankful for their support and value your relations with them. It is a simple and sweet gesture on your behalf which helps improve your relations with your client and keep them coming back for more. Everybody wants to be given some attention. If you are doing it, you are earning their trust. Brand Awareness/Marketing: We are sure you own at least one pen/keychain/diary from a brand or company that you did not know existed before you got hold of their Corporate gift or probably won it at some festival. We have been there too. Personalized corporate gifts not only can be given to clients but also used as a way of marketing your brand. “To be seen and noticed” is what companies/brands want. Give your employees the push: When we said everyone loves gifts, I thought a little more about employees. Sure, it is lovely to be appreciated by a brand you are a regular customer of. But, to work and be valued is another thing. One little personalized gift can do wonders here. When a person feels valued for their hard work and gets recognized for the same, it pushes them to put then best into their work. It makes the workspace more positive and better. Also to simply own things with the brand logo/image you work at speaks for itself. A way to save some money: When we talk about corporate gifts, it is something that helps us in the long run. Most corporate gifts are bought on a large scale and hence save us money. We can target all our prospects at the same time. Keeping some extras at hand is never harmful when it is about gifting. Personalized corporate gifts also ensure a better work environment and also a more satisfied employee. This in turn affirms their stay at the company, saving you money on training new employees. Also, happier clients will come back time and again, and endorse the brand which will get you more business. A way to give back: No matter how statistical and practical you get in your business life, nothing gives your more contentment than giving back to your community. Your employees, clients, and supporters are a family to you. And they need to be acknowledged and appreciated. A personalized corporate gift is the way to do it. Giving back will bring your more joy and success in your life and business. These are some of the reasons we believe personalized corporate gifts are important. Do not underestimate the grandeur a thing as simple as the brand logo can bring to a gift. Also, leave a personalized message for your next corporate gift to make it more homely.
Why Personalization is the new trend in Corporate Gifting
Gifts have been a manner of expressing love, respect, care, and worth in our universe since the beginning of time. We give gifts to our loved ones at special events and festivals to show them how much we appreciate their presence in our lives. Workplaces are starting to follow suit. We spend the majority of our time with our coworkers, employees, employers, business partners, and so on. It's only natural to show them how much we value and care for them. What better way to make things more personal than to make them a little more personal? A simple logo imprint can make a gift much more personal and meaningful in one's life. To persuade you of the importance of bespoke business gifts, we've compiled a list of five reasons: Customer-Brand Relationships - Every relationship in the world deserves to be cherished and nurtured. Giving your clients a customized present shows them how much you appreciate their support and how much you cherish your relationship with them. It's a small but kind effort on your part that improves your client's relationship with you and keeps them coming back for more. Everyone wants to be paid attention to. You are earning their trust if you are doing it. Brand Awareness/Marketing: We're confident you have at least one pen, keychain, or diary from a brand or company you had no idea existed until you received it as a corporate gift or won it at a festival. We've all been there. Personalized corporate gifts can be used not only to thank clients but also to promote your business. Companies or brands want to "be seen and noticed." Give your employees a push: When we remarked that everyone enjoys receiving gifts, I began to think about my own employees. Sure, it's nice to be acknowledged by a company you use on a regular basis. Working and being valued, on the other hand, is a different story. A small personalized present might go a long way in this situation. When someone feels valued for their hard work and is recognized for it, it motivates them to put up their best effort. It improves and improves the working environment. Also, merely owning goods with the logo/image of the company you work for speaks for itself. A means to save money: When it comes to corporate presents, we're talking about something that will benefit us in the long run. The majority of corporate presents are purchased in bulk, which saves us money. We have the ability to target all of our prospects at the same time. When it comes to gifting, having some extras on hand is never a bad idea. Personalized business gifts also contribute to a more positive work atmosphere and happier employees. As a result, they are more likely to stay with the company, saving you money on training new staff. Also, satisfied customers are more likely to return and promote the brand, resulting in increased sales. A means to give back: Nothing offers you more satisfaction than giving back to your community, no matter how statistical and practical your professional life becomes. You consider your employees, clients, and supporters to be family. They also deserve to be recognized and respected. The best way to do it is with a bespoke business gift. Giving back will bring you more happiness and success in your personal and professional life. These are some of the reasons why we think personalized business gifts are so valuable. Do not underestimate the impact that something as basic as a brand logo can have on a present. So get out there and make a place for pens, diaries and everything else your business and its followers believe in. For your next corporate gift, don't forget to include a personalized note. It will only add to its coziness.

5 Habits To Make WFH Easier
Since March 2020, our work life has pretty much become the One Direction hiatus we never went back from. COVID-19 brought life to a pause and to survive we did the best we could. The lockdown paved way for the “Work from Home” culture to reach the masses. For the first few months, people sure thought it was fun, waking up 15 minutes before work hours, not having to wear formals (wearing a shirt over your shorts or PJs for occasional meetings, SO IN FASHION, right ? *blink blink*) among many other perks. But, it is not as easy as it sounds. For starters, there are just so many distractions like TV, phones, kids, and of course the BED. The chaos happened when people couldn’t separate work from their personal life. When our bedrooms became our offices and our bed became our work desk, things were likely to go down. There was no room left for Personal space. With this blog, we are hoping that you will find a Work from Home balance and it will improve your life. Here’s a list of 5 habits that will make WFH easier for you: Have A Designated Work SpaceThe comfort of your bed might be calling to you every second of the day but, having a designated workspace can do wonders for you. Invest in a comfortable work chair and desk for this will help you stay more on it than your bed. Once you do that, you’ll be taking the first step towards a balance WFH life. You could also get a desk lamp to illuminate your workspace if required. Invest in Weekly Planners and StationeryPlanning your week or the day prior can make WFH easier for you. It will help you stay focused on tasks at hand rather than wasting time on chores that you can do after work hours. Get yourself the appropriate stationery like Mixed colour index cards, Post-it sticky cube notes, re-usable white pad, highlighters, pens, pencils etc. Always Keep Your Desk OrganizedOrganizers may not seem necessary to you but storing your pens, pencils, files, notepads, planner etc. in an organized manner will only make things more comfortable for you. You can choose different organizers for your desk like File organizers, folders, tidy desk organizers, Trio Expanding Cheque File, memo tray, pen stands etc. A neat and organized desk is more inviting. Time ManagementReaching out for your phone to check the time or calendar often leads to a wastage of time. And we all know what happens once you hold your phone. Time flies… Having desk clocks and calendars can help you be more productive throughout the day. You will not reach out for your phone every now and then. Time management is a big issue while working from home. A thing as simple as this can improve time management for you. Use Tools to Improve Your PostureOnce again, this is a minor change in your WFH life but very predominant. It’s a step to cut those invisible strings your bed seems to pull you with. An entire day of working on a desk can be tedious thus, the more comfort you bring to the workspace, the easier it is for you to stay on it for a longer time. We all know a big part of adulting is random body aches, but this way you’ll probably keep some of them at bay. So, just go ahead and include these habits in your daily WFH life. You’ll soon see the change in the quality of your work and your personal life. Do not forget to pour yourself a cup of coffee or tea to start your workday. And this goes without saying “Move and stretch every now and then”. We care about you. Happy working!

Japanese Stationery: 5 Reasons Why We Love It
Japanese stationery is acknowledged as among the greatest in the world. While Japan constantly innovates to manufacture some of the best stationery on the market, many people are still perplexed as to why it is so popular. In Japan, stationery is a way of life. Japan provides the greatest quality stationery for consumers, owing to its long-standing culture of seeing penmanship. Here are 5 top reasons why Japanese stationery has our hearts: QualitySince the 6th century, Japanese Calligraphy has been a popular tradition. Handwriting is considered an art form in Japan, and as children grow older, they develop a much greater appreciation for fine writing instruments. Japan has always laid great on the quality of its writing, which necessitated the use of the best instruments to convey its ideas. Thus, Japanese stationery offers the highest level of quality for people who wish to concentrate on having the greatest writing experience possible. Click Here to view a few of the premium quality Japanese writing instruments available in India. Affordable One of the biggest illusions that we, as customers, have is that the higher the quality of the product is, the higher the price would be. Japanese stationery manufacturers burst this myth with their affordable yet ‘made to last’ products. Japanese stationery isn't synonymous with low-cost, badly manufactured goods. In fact, the everyday collection or better known as the pocket-friendly stationery offered is just as good, if not better, as the mainstream international brands. Try using the Tecflow Gel Ink Pen by Kaco and decide if you see yourself inclined towards Japanese stationery. DesignOf course, given that we're discussing Japan, it'd be a mistake not to consider the 'kawaii factor.' In Japan, creativity is highly valued. We all know that standard pens and sticky notes will get the job done, but the adorable stationery will keep you motivated and creative throughout your long days of study and work. The various prints, patterns and designs will surely make you scream “cute!” out of excitement! Moreover, their innovation alongside creativity gave birth to some of the most aesthetically pleasing stationeries like the Pure Coloured Pens by Kaco. InnovationJapan is well-known for its technological advancements and innovation; this applies to stationery manufacturing industries as well. Customers expect novel and fresh stationery, whether it's a notebook, pen, journal, or plain paper. Thus, the manufacturers set out to produce more unique, inventive, and functional products. When you handle a piece of Japanese stationery, you're holding an instrument that's been precisely constructed to provide you with the best possible experience. One such example is the Glue Tape by Plus Japan that practically eliminates drying time and the need for the glue stick. Sophisticated Premium StationeryPremium Japanese stationery companies are known for their long-lasting products that never go out of style. They provide aesthetically pleasing timeless, gender-neutral, and top-notch quality products. The premium stationery that they offer writes like a dream, quality at an affordable price, with a sophisticated and elegant appearance.
