It was the last inning in our all-star game, and we were losing 10 to 8. Our team had 2 outs and we couldn’t get the third. Our pitcher was doing bad, throwing all balls, while all of us in the field were tired, ready to fall asleep at any moment. There goes another walk. They score again.
Mckenna, I too wrote about the mindless monster and the negative effects it can have on someone. It's crazy to think about the lengths people will go to please someone and will overwork themselves to make sure others are happy. I believe that the only way to be truly happy is to make sure you're good first. The other aspect I agree with was your point on body language. That is something I need to work on a lot as well.

I have been doing some thinking about our conversation a few days ago and have concluded that I will take you up on the offer! I just sold my old bike and now have some money left over that I can use to pay for those seminars. I am going to see how soon I can get this done, I am going to look at the dates and send my form in. I will keep you posted on the status of things as they get processed.
Goal Number One I didn’t know it yet, but the way I viewed the game of lacrosse was about to change drastically. It was a normal day for me. I was in eighth grade, and I was getting ready for school.
The Ride Today, my family and I went to Kings Island and we made it through the exhausting car ride.. We walked into the park and we were started looking for somewhere for a roller coaster to ride like the small ,medium, big, and huge I wanted to go on a medium kind roller coaster. We roamed around a little going around checking all of the places to eat, little games to play, and the huge rides they have. I said to my dad “ There's a lot of places to eat here.” he and said “I wonder why it’s always packed too.”
Today was another busy but fulfilling day. I got checked off with my head-to-toe assessment. I followed my regular nurse, Nurse Clea. Since I mostly knew the routines of my patients, I started by doing rounds. I checked my patients one by one to see if they were stable and responsive.
Hidden Messages, Long-term Results I have always been an animal lover. Although my parents were, and still are, allergic to fur, I had a farm across the road from my house and many neighbors with animals. As a sassy four-year old, I had the mentality of “finders-keepers, loser-weepers” or “if I spot your animal and you're not nearby, consider it mine.” I liked to call it permanently borrowing, but others called it stealing. Starting as a young girl, I would test my abilities and creativity to see how many animals it would take until my mom went ballistic, and how many new hiding spaces I could find.
Joining the emotional dots An area that I feel I need to develop is my emotional intelligence, not just to benefit my organisations in future but also my response to changes, events and the world around me. When reflecting and discovering my social anxiety I also realised I suffer heavily from cognitive distortions, when something goes wrong either at work or in day to day life I will mentally jump to the worst possible conclusion no matter how seemingly small the problem is. It’s something that I am treating as a priority to work on as it causes me a lot of unnecessary distress and floods my head with negativity in times when I need to be thinking the most clearly.
Self-Evaluation on Counselling Session (One) Session start with a warmth greeting, by asking client ‘How can I address you?”, to be honest I felt nervous at the beginning of the session, too focus or particular on the name of client, client actually felt uncomfortable. I can just follow the flow and address whatever name client point out and start with small talk will be a good idea such as asking about his experience of travelling to the centre for his counselling session. Thereupon, I briefly explained the length of time of the session, confidentiality and the limitation. I believe that I deliver a clear message to the client.
“Ten Keys to Building Powerful Listening Skills” I believe I avoid interrupting while someone else is speaking. I can’t, say that I have always, had this skill, but it has become valuable, and resourceful. As the book states, not only is it impolite, to interrupt, but you also, miss what the speaker or your boss, is saying when you interrupt. When my children started school, and I returned to work, I would try to finish my boss’ sentences. I thought, I knew, what was on her mind, or what she was going to tell me to do.
There are many different forms of communication these include visual, verbal and non-verbal. It is important that people take a look at their own communication skills and how these can be improved. Communication allows us to see things from another point of view; therefore one can get rid of any personal biases. Listening is a gift that should be appreciated, it lets people know what is going on around them in their society, such as people’s problems and struggles. It is not until people start to listen to someone that they will be able to understand that person.
Effective relationships should be a common goal for all to strive for. The learner believes that there are four major signs that make us human; the need to love, the need to be loved, the need to be accepted and the need to be respected as an individual. None of these things can be accomplished alone, therefore, a relationship needs to be formed. The more effective the relationship the more these needs are able to be met. In the study of marriage and family we look into the areas that can either make or break relationships.
The Unseen I’m sitting in the car with my mom in the driver seat. Holding casual conversation, when she mentioned something about my sister, Khighla. She said that she had run away from home in Missouri and she hadn’t come home in a couple days. Giving her a worried look she reassured me that hopefully everything was okay and that she would be home soon if not that day. I went to bed that night crying.
Introduction Though Francis Bacon did not make a mention of the importance of the art of listening, it is still the primary soft skill without which the other communication skills, namely, speaking, reading and writing, may not be effective and successful. Undoubtedly, listening occupies most of our time. However, listening is not the end of communication. Mere listening to the words of wisdom is of no use unless the listener is guided and benefited by them. Failure to communicate the message properly or effectively or failure to receive the message well may result in a communication gap.
