Your Brain Doesn't Know How & It's Not Your Fault

Your Brain Doesn't Know How & It's Not Your Fault A typical human brain is functioning on low capacity. Although the idea that a normal brain only uses 10% of its capacity is a myth, it is true that most people's brains are not functioning properly. For example, studies show that the brains of many people, when confronted with a problem, will actually switch gears and start working less! Instead of switching to logic and "work mode," the brain switches to patterns of frustration and emotion. Most people have simply not learned to "turn on" these higher cognitive abilities when the time is right. Most people are unfamiliar with the states of intense concentration and laser-like focus that come so easily to the great thinkers of our time. To correct this problem, researchers endeavored to recreate the brainwave patterns of overachieving, successful individuals - the most intelligent 1% of the population. What they found is truly remarkable. By helping

Self Confidence what is told in detail

Self Confidence Self-confidence is a character trait that is essential for success in any career. It can also be argued that a life experience without self-confidence leads a person to miss out on valuable opportunities. Think about the people in your life who exhibit quality self-confidence. These people are generally fun to be around, possess many friends and are often successful in their choice of career. It is a mistake of many people to believe that you either have self-confidence or you don’t. Just like any skill that can be learned and improved upon, your sense of self-confidence can also be improved. Employers are interested in self-confident individuals as they are more apt to produce high-quality work under pressure. A self-confident person believes in his or her strengths and abilities and does not become overwhelmed by low self-esteem and doubt. People who exhibit self-confidence do not seek the approval of others but are ambitious and seek challenges. Self-confidence artic

10 basic points of good discipline for child

10 basic points of good discipline for child guidance Children are not born knowing the rules of life. They learn to be good men and women by first learning to be good boys and girls. Expect mistakes, tantrums, pouting, and crying. How you respond is an important part of how they learn. 1.Good discipline is not punishment Discipline and punishment are different. Punishment is supposed to make a person choose not to repeat bad behaviour. By using punishment, especially physical punishment, children learn how the powerful make rules and the weaker must go along with it, or else. They might learn to avoid being honest about mistakes or to divert the blame on to others (“it’s not my fault”). Because young children do not choose to misbehave, they can feel like failures if punished over and over. 2. Good discipline teachesPunishment teaches what is wrong, but does not help a child learn what is right. The goal of discipline is to teach. It teaches self-control and socially acceptable behav

"Well that's not an crime", said the judge! "How early were you doing this shopping?" "Before the store opened", answered the prisoner.

Mobile phone information :

An IMEI number- The International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number is an international identity number used to uniquely identify a mobile phone. The 15-digit IMEI number is an electronic fingerprint transmitted every time a phone is used, which reveals the identity of the mobile handset. How can I find out my IMEI number? IMEI numbers are independent of the phone number and are usually written underneath the battery or on the back of the handset. Mobile phone users can also check their 15 digit IMEI number by dialling *#06# on their mobile handset. Mobile phone owners should make a note of their IMEI number and keep the details in a safe place. If u lost your mobile, send an e-mail to cop@vsnl.net with the following info. Your name: Address: Phone model: Make: Last used No.: E-mail for communication: Missed date: IMEI No.: "No need to go to police station" Source: THE HINDU, 13.5.06

Make your presence felt

Speaking with confidence can be learnt - here are five tips ............................................................................................... EXECUTIVE presence may be hard to define, but most people know it when they see it. Do you have it? If you think you don't, or if you would like to increase your credibility and confidence, consider the following tips: 1. Your gestures can support or sabotage what you say Gestures and mannerisms can either convince your audience of your sincerity or antagonise them. Imagine yourself in an airport, with conversations going on all around you, and you are engaged in a farewell to a friend. All of a sudden, the man and woman next to you begin to wave their arms dramatically, their fingers urgently punching the air. Immediately, your attention is diverted from your own conversation to this couple. Why is it that their words do not distract you, but their gestures do? That is the power of gestures and mannerisms. Often, gestures spea

Deliver on what you promise

If you keep your promises to clients, you earn their trust and increase your business .................................................................................................. How many people promise to get back to you with that quote, order, report or anything else for that matter and actually do it? Many people do not deliver on their promises. They do not realise that they lose people’s trust and their credibility goes down the drain. This leads to the loss of goodwill too. Would you refer business to them and feel confident that they can look after an important client or be responsible for finalising a special project? Smooth sailing A few months ago, I decided to finally buy a home entertainment system. I don’t like to waste time visiting the relevant stores and having to sift through conflicting opinions as to what would suit my needs. So I rang a local retailer and asked if he knew someone who could come to my home and then make suitable recommendations. I was referred

Have talent, will travel

Packaging your transferable skills is key to making a successful career switch ............................................................................................... ASIA countries are currently enjoying record employment growth. With the buzzing economy, you might be thinking this is a good time to consider taking that career change. While it is daunting, making an industry or career change today is not as extraordinary as you might think. A recent study conducted by human resource management company DBM revealed that one in two people who find themselves in a career transition change their industry or job function successfully. The biggest challenge to changing careers is identifying your transferable skills and learning how to package them to appeal to an employer in a different industry. There are several key considerations to keep in mind when contemplating a career change: 1 Plan for a longer job search Changing industries requires research, which requires time. Assess

Focus your energies

Propel your business to greater success by steering your operations in a definite direction and communicating your intentions clearly to your employees ............................................................................................... FROM boardrooms to lunchrooms across the corporate world, the discussions are almost always the same. In the lunchrooms, the question is: "Who are we and where are we going?" In the boardrooms, the question is: "Where are we going and how do we get there?" In either case, the results are the same - direction drift. After over 35 years of working with clients in dozens of industries with sales ranging from one million to several billion dollars, I have come to the conclusion that this is one of the biggest challenges facing corporations today. The consequences of direction drift are many, but they can be summarised into five: " A lack of communicated direction contributes to poor employee performance and productivity.

Successful card tricks

Far from being just a namecard-exchanging exercise, a networking event can yield valuable contacts, pointers and ideas .................................................................................................. SOME people seem to think the success of an event can be measured by the number of business cards they take away from it. The truth is, it is better to make real connections with fewer people, rather than to pride yourself on a collection of cards that you may never use. These simple steps will help you to use your business cards effectively and tell what to do next with the cards that you collect at a networking event. Always carry your business card That means both in and out of business hours - even at social and sporting events. You never know when someone may need your services. Never hand out cards with incorrect or crossed-out information It is not professional. Information crossed out may give the appearance that you are disorganised or do not pay attention to de

Reach for the sky

There is nothing you cannot do if you set your mind to it ............................................................................................... HAVE you ever thought about what you could do if you really decided to? I'm not merely talking about your skills, education and talents. I'm talking about what is really possible for you. It's possible that you can do virtually anything. Not alone, not without new information, but certainly within your ultimate grasp. Now many people would say to me: "Jim, be realistic. Some things are just not possible." To them I say, a realist is simply a pessimist who doesn't want to admit it. I've never heard a "realist" take an optimistic posture on any topic. They always say: "Let's be realistic" and then go on to explain why your idea can't be done. Imagine a realist saying: "Realistically, we don't yet know what the possibilities are. This could be easier than we think!"

Self-development begins with you

In Cindy's world, nothing good ever happens to her, the rain only falls in her part of town and there is a conspiracy to keep her from succeeding. The interesting thing about Cindy is that she is intelligent, articulate and has lots of potential. The problem is that she will never realise her true potential if she does not change her attitudes and beliefs about who is responsible for her development. She constantly blames the organisation she works with for not "training her more", she blames the government for taking all of her expendable income (through taxes) so she cannot go back to school, and she blames her family for taking up all of her time so she can never get anything done. The one person who Cindy never blames is Cindy, and as a result she never improves in any facets of her life. Unfortunately, many of us see the world this way. When we consider personal or professional development, it is too easy to blame external factors for our own shortcomings. The realit

How peak performers take control of their lives

Here are 10 mental game success strategies that peak performers use in self-management. 1 Know what motivates you. Top producers know what makes them tick. They know what it takes to get the creative, competitive juices flowing. They know how to tap their passion and create the energy needed for a project. They assess what motivates them and then seek opportunities to match those energies. 2 Be aware of your options. People who race through their day are like a race-car driver. The view around them is a blur. Slow down to notice your options and sense new opportunities. You create this clear focus by starting each day and each task with a quiet time that realigns you with your purpose, mission and values. 3 Train yourself to act promptly. Reflection, planning and strategising are essential. When the time comes to act, the peak performer goes for it enthusiastically - he pulls out all the stops. 4 Realise that you never arrive. Listen to high achievers and they all say that they wish th
