These quotations are very relevant to me, especially because I am a very expressive or kind of a talkative person. These reminded me that even how good or fancy I talk or say something, without backing it up with a clear action it is pointless. That is why it is better to just do more and talk less like the old saying tell us ‘Walk the talk’. Or the more I talk about something the more I should put a better effort in doing it. You would only prove a point if you back you words with definite and clear actions.
There’s more to that smile than just always being happy. I like to use the word joyful, because that happiness comes from deep within the soul. I may be eighteen, but I also have a child-like spirit. I am okay with being very excited about little things, and everything for that matter. I have strong morals, including there is only one life to live; life should be joyous.
The basic communication principle I apply to my personal life experience is knowing my audience and communicating a little at a time. I believe by knowing and interacting with a person before I just say what’s on my mind.I believe by knowing the person’s attitude and belief will help me be better prepared to answer questions they might want to ask me whenever we strike up a conversation. I also feel the results these results are a accurate description of my personality and communication style. I am a introverted person and I see this plays a factor when I talk to strangers. Yet, I do know how important and how good it can feel to connect with someone new.
I tend to listen more to what people have to say. This result was not new to me. Avoidance and dependent evidently are the areas that are causing me not to excel. Frankly, I find it hard to make connections with others because my continuous need to be perfect. I find that my closest and best relationships are those who have common values, way of living, and ideals about living life.
There were three from the list that stood out to me. The TCO’s that mention “analyze” really helped me to help change my communication behavior. They helped me to observe how other people interact during a conflict, or troubled time. The more I noticed that the models I chose did an excellent job conveying their emotions, the more I mocked the way they went about the situation. Each time a situation arose, I tried my best to act the
Keeping each week’s tasks and goals in mind probably improves my chances in being successful in life. Self-Assurance I rely on my drives to decide how to react appropriately to a situation, or an individual, or a crowd. Driven by my talents, I personally feel content too steady improvements I make as an individual throughout life. I have confidence in my talents and knowledge. Infrequently I trust myself enough to test my own endurance and swiftness.
I chose the article BECOMING A CRITIC OF YOUR THINKING by Dr. Linda Elder and Dr. Richard Paul. I felt the message was more straightforward and relatable than some of the other articles I read. This article struck me as a “how-to guide” to improve one’s critical thinking, which is something anyone could benefit from even if one is already a good thinker. I liked how the article first asks the reader how much they really know about their own daily thinking. It’s an interesting question, because as the article also states, most people probably think that “it just happens in their minds automatically,” and that we probably, for the most part, “take our thinking for granted.” I know I am guilty on both counts.
Equality 7-2521 says that “the guiding star is within me” and that it points to just one direction, and that direction is “me”. What is a guiding star supposed to do? It is told that it leads the way to the right direction. That right direction does not necessarily have to be used as in a driving direction or walking, but the roadmap to a successful life. Something I like to say when I have a new goal is that “We can accomplish anything, as long as we set our my mind to do

According to research, unlike IQ, EI can be gained through conscious efforts in interaction with others, through training and sometimes through peak experiences My Intelligence Quotient (IQ) has got me where I am today but now I need to acquire something called Emotional Intelligence (EI) as well.I am an extroverted persona and often I had often misinterpreted Extroverted social skills as Emotional Intelligence. However, I realized that EI refers to my ability to manage, monitor and regulate my emotions in a balanced and healthy manner in order to achieve my personal and business objectives. Based upon Salovey and Mayer(1990) I must ensure to use the four components of EI effectively. Self-awareness – take charge of both your positive and negative emotions Self-regulation– discover the interrelationships between emotions and gauge how they develop and mutate with time.
I knew from the moment I learned about this school, that's where I wanted to go. I felt they could help me succeed like I wanted and help me do great things. Others also knew this was a good choice, some former teachers always had saw my potential and knew I was going to do great, no matter how much trouble I’d gotten in. Despite the negative comments people told me, I didnt care what they thought. I used those comments to motivate myself, to want, to go even more, and prove them wrong.
