YAML front matter in Typora

     I was looking for ways to add a cover page, header, and footer in Markdown and just figured out how we do it in Typora Markdown editor. It is easy. Set the header and footer using YAML Front Matter. The YAML front matter must be the first thing in the file and must be valid YAML, set between triple-dashed lines.  Source: https://support.typora.io/ The following is an example for setting the document title, header, and footer using YAML: --- title: Agile Technical Documentation header: A Quick Guide for Agile Technical Documentation footer: ${pageNo} --- Apart from this, you need to make a few PDF export settings.

     There is one thing universal about successful managers. They keep increasing the performance benchmark every time. It applies to an athletic coach who wants to make his trainee globally competitive. I have worked under cruelly kind managers who are very ruthless in getting the tasks done. They push you to improve your competency and skills every day. You may have had a tough time working under this manager, and still, it is not something to be resented. Weathers the pressures work? We start looking for ways to do things better when the competitive edge is so narrow, and even a marginal improvement in something will give you an edge over your competitors. I had my dilemmas over if harsh managers are good or bad. A good manager sets difficult but attainable benchmarks and allows members to execute tasks with relative autonomy. There is no use flogging a dead horse. Spend time grooming the people who are motivated to do their best. I have spent time with people who do not have enough
