Self Development

SELF DEVELOPMENT:

Why do we choose to accept a first impression?

It seems that we have grown up with accepting them and therefore it becomes a habitual act. This accepting a habitual act alone proves how many other aspects of our life can be clouded by judgements made from assumptions.

Is accepting a first impression actually the first impression? More often than not it is the second impression. The first impression is a gut feeling that we discard incorrectly.

How to Solve Problems

 SOLVING PROBLEMS:
 
 We solve problems by dipping into our knowledge and experience and producing an answer.
 
 Most adults will have the chance of experience as it happens directly in front of them each day. As for knowledge few choose to gather any more; as a consequence they will always be disadvantaged.
 
 To search for knowledge need not be tiresome, in a day of MEASURE there is always room for study.

100 WAYS TO IMPROVE
YOUR SELF-ESTEEM

First it is important to understand the exact meaning of ‘Self-Esteem’. The Oxford English Dictionary definition is:

Solving Problems

SOLVING PROBLEMS:

For you; what is a problem? Is a problem just another noose around your neck, or is it a blessing in disguise?

Obama's Victory - Good or Bad?
