connecting any device with an on and off switch to the Internet (and/or to each other). This includes everything from cellphones, coffee makers, washing machines, headphones, lamps, wearable devices and almost anything else you can think of.
What is clear is that Machine to Machine connectivity is quickly becoming the norm rather than the exception. The human factor is no longer needed to facilitate this communication. The autonomy of machines is gaining traction to the benefit of humans. The life-enhancing automation from the Internet of Things is helping to increase human efficiency every day. https://www.sensorsmag.com/components/four-ways-internet-things-can-impact-lives

How Will Internet of Things Affect Human Relationships
written by Donald Carson January 26, 2017
Context-Based Smart Communication
Internet of Things will not only affect businesses, marketing, health and home convenience, it will also bring a lot of new stuff on the table for human relationships. IoT devices are here to transform our entire lifestyles, which revolve around relationships and connection with other humans. Here’s how IoT will affect human relationships.
IoT software like social media: Facebook, YouTube Live, GroupMe. Devices like Alexa, Google Home, FitBit, BlueSmart Suitcase, Samsung Refrigerator, Glass, Snap Spectacles, Vuzix Blade will help people to connect on a deeper level. Imagine this scenario: a patient is sitting in front of his doctor, explaining the status of his health and symptoms, while the doctor, who is wearing a smart augmented reality-based glasses, is watching the patient’s medical history and previous meeting’s notes, without breaking the eye contact and listening to the patient’s talk. Internet of Things and Augmented Reality will help humans to keep the context refreshed, which will help them to refine and improve their communication. Looking at your smartphone’s screen while sitting in a coffee shop with your friends or family breaks the resonance and gives a negative vibe. Internet of Things will take care of that. Smart Glasses can play social media apps, YouTube videos and everything your smartphone does. You will be able to maintain an eye contact with others all the time and also stay connected during conversations.
CRM
Customer Relationship Management is another domain where Internet of Things will have a huge impact. With the help of Big Data, data from social media and connected devices, companies and individuals will be able to know more about customers and connect with them smartly. Philip’s smart Sonicare toothbrush is an example of this. This GPS enabled toothbrush keeps record of the user’s routine and locations and can also relay data to user’s dentist. So every time you go to your dentist, you will not hear the annoying question about whether your brushed or not.
More Time for Humans to Connect
Perhaps the biggest benefit of IoT devices for human relationships will be the time humans will be able to spend with each other without worrying about small chores like laundry, doing dishes, house cleaning, booking flights, scheduling meetings, setting reminders, maintaining temperatures and home security. Smart home systems like Amazon Echo and Google Home are already proving this point. Instead of taking everything in your hand, delegate daily tasks to IoT devices, and spend time with your loved ones. Families will be able to go to vacations without worrying about security of their homes and property.

3 Things You Need To Make Excellent Career Choices
1) Always Be Networking
Whether you consider yourself to be an expert networking professional or someone who is still working on that skill, networking is a critical part of your career success. Practice makes perfect, and taking every opportunity to practice will make you a pro before you even know it. While the skills you will need to be good at networking do come naturally to some, but they are also skills that are easy to learn. The basics include communicating well about your professional experience and your goals, being friendly and memorable to the people you speak with, and most of all listening to what your networking partner has to say as well. You never know where your next big break will come from so make sure you are always looking for opportunities to make meaningful professional connections, wherever you are.
2) Keep Learning New Skills
Professional development is something that can be very important to your long-term career growth. Industries are always changing, technology in particular seems to be making big differences across generations of workers. For those not able or willing to keep up with the latest trends or information are sure to fall behind. Seek out learning opportunities. Read books, listen to podcasts, take an online course, enroll in a certificate program. Whatever level of ongoing education you have time and space for in your life, do that. Because every year a new class graduates with the latest skills and a deep knowledge base that may disrupt your entire industry. Stay on your toes, keep your mind engaged, and keep learning new skills to remain relevant and competitive in your industry.
3) Don’t Be Afraid to Try Something New
Sometimes we get too comfortable in our jobs. We come to know the work well, are confident in our ability to do the job, know the people well, and feel we are important to the success of the company we work for. But if you stay in the same job without room to grow in responsibility or impact, then you are inevitably selling yourself short. Sometimes people are afraid to take the leap, leave their job and try something new, and are inevitably disappointed by the very career they have built for themselves. Don’t avoid a challenge just because it’s going to be different. Rise to the occasion. Test your own limits. Look for the work that energizes you every day, and if you can’t find that job, create it.

COMMUNITY:
1. Maximize Individuals’ Strengths
Community leaders often work with volunteers. They may be elected by members of the community, assigned to work with a group, or they simply step forward and want to help. In any case, community leaders rarely have the luxury of choosing who they work with. Your job involves being able to identify the strengths and interests of each person on your leadership team and maximize those talents and skills in a way that keeps your team engaged in the work. Your fellow leaders need to feel that they are making a meaningful contribution to the group, the community and the work.
2. Practice Stewardship
This is about getting people to take responsibility for their physical space and surroundings. This includes natural areas, structures and spaces. Stewardship means working together to protect, preserve and take care of your community. This involves renewing, repairing, rebuilding and constantly reviewing your physical community to ensure that it is healthy, strong and well-maintained.
3. Work as a Team
Let’s face it, community leadership is slow work. It is much less efficient than, say, military leadership, where underlings simply obey the orders of their superior officers. Community leadership means that one person does not do it all.
It can be useful to teach your leadership team the difference between efficiency and effectiveness. An efficient leader will take a task away from someone who is not completing their work in a timely manner. An effective leader will ensure that the person gets the support they need to complete the task. Effectiveness often takes more time than efficiency. Community leadership is about building relationships and working together. Being patient with one another and supporting one another process builds capacity and relationships. But be forewarned, this takes much more time than simply being efficient.
