I was a little upset that Rahim Khan didn't tell Amir that he knew what happened to Hassan. He only said that "there is a way to be good again". I felt that the movie didn't properly portray Amir's guilt over this situation, especially since it was such an important aspect in his life - it shaped the man he became. Also, I felt Amir's time with Sohrab before heading back to America was too brief and too easy. In the novel, they really struggled with many things - the adoption process, Sohrab trusting Amir and most importantly, Sohrab's attempted suicide.
However, there is a danger in thinking that we can always overcome problems that come up. The ironic fact is that life is not a smooth road. Hence, we need to be realistic about it. Setting a goal that is obviously impossible to achieve will end up frustrating us to the point where we give up on our goals or worse, we can’t move on with our lives. We need an option, and being optimistic may give us false promises or facades to see one thing and create inability to be resilient with the other available options.
You obviously cannot just give in to all demands an employee might make however and you have to discuss options in depth and try and find suitable outcomes to benefit both parties. It also needs to be considered that not everyone responds the same to motivational methods. All the things I have talked about so far are taking what may be considered a softer approach but this won’t work with everybody. Some employees respond to a harder line of performance management and aren’t interested in things such as on-going training
I know continuing to be depressed will not help my situation. I expect to learn how to think more outside the box, how to analyze every detail and make the best decision for me and my family and
Regretting past experiences will not help them adjust. “Thinking positively and avoiding negative thoughts is a good strategy when trying to handle stress in just about any circumstance.” Santrock (2006) Cognitive restructuring is the process of replacing the thoughts, ideas and beliefs that maintain an individual’s problems. It can be used to get people to think more positively and optimistically. I think the teen that had the disruptive past needs more self-control at this point in his life. He needs to have an internal locus of control, or believe that his behaviors are responsible for what happens to him in his life.
What is your reality? In my own reality, I can honestly say I am not perfect. I strive to be the best I can be, and I am determined not to have anything get in the way of me reaching my life goals and becoming successful. When I was younger, I have heard that out in the “real” world, I will understand what it is to be an adult and take responsibility. I see reality being the point in time when one has gained responsibilities that may lead to many consequences, whether they are good or bad.
However, simply prioritising achievements over potential denies the fact past achievements may not be a holistic revelation of one’s true capabilities. Since people are constantly making progress, we should embrace every possibility of their future by placing trust in their potential. While what people have accomplished in the past reveals some of their abilities and hence heralds what they will be achieving in the future, it is myopic to arbitrate their later development based on their past experience. Due to stereotypes, many tend to concentrate too much on one’s past deeds and neglect one’s potential. This is sheer short-sightedness.
The term 'memory' refers to a power or process of reproducing or recalling what has been learned and retained, especially through associative mechanisms. Memories both act as a help and a obstacle to the success of someone. Although some contend that people who get too tied to the past are unable to move on to future, in order to move up the ladder of success and achievement, one must come to terms with our past and integrate it into his or her future. Indeed, memories are enormously critical in realizing one's future goals because they prevent people making the same mistake they have done before and let them improve in the future through both failures and experiences. To begin with, one may not repeat the errors of the past by recalling his or her remembrance.
Buying a new car can always be a hard thing. I know for me I have only bought one car so far in my life but it was a bit difficult. I got lucky and was able to go with my sister’s boyfriend who is a car sales men to help me find one and make sure that I got the most for my money. Therefore along the process of finding one he made sure that I understood the car industry. So that I don’t think in the mind set of I shouldn’t be spending this much and how some car companies don’t look how much a car will cost you in the long run of having it.
Does this make them immature or lucky? Too many adults lose the ability to see the world through a child’s eyes; and this may be part of what causes some of the issues faced by adults. The older generation is indeed wise and has a lot to offer a middle aged person, or young adult as well as teenagers and adolescents. As we enter into late adulthood it is indeed vital to try and stay as healthy and as active as possible. This is important as this will help during the experiences and changes that life brings, some uncontrollable and unpredictable.
