...Creative Professionals Do Your Research Before you even apply for a job, you should do some research into the company or business advertising. A few years ago this would have been a time consuming task, but now, with the popularity of "online marketing", all the information you need is just a few mouse clicks away. Before your interview, you should have a clear idea about the size of the company/business, the kind of work or clients they have and what role they would expect you to work in. Knowing a bit about the company or business that is interviewing you will always come in handy. There's nothing worse than being asked "so... do you know much about our business" when the answer is no! If you find out that the job you have an interview for isn't really what you're looking for, there's no harm in attending the interview anyway... practice makes perfect. Dress the Part Having conducted many interviews in the past, I can honestly say, leave the suit and tie at home. In creative fields a suit is too rigid and old fashioned and you don't want to appear that way. This doesn't mean that you should turn up in your jeans and sneakers either (unless you're a freelance Illustrator with an outstanding portfolio... they seem to be excluded). Try to dress a little bit better than what's expected from the staff, this way you will show that you're putting in some effort, but also that you're not a bad match for the workplace. If you're really stuck, try on your outfit the evening before...

...As the word 'teenagers' are mentioned, we will think that it is the most joyous part of our lives. It is true and cannot be denied. However, some of us, teenagers, never have a great moment during high school. Some may have peer problems or probably some stress. Basically teenager’s life in high school is like a self survival in the Amazon forest. The teenagers in high school usually scared of the first day of school because it is that day that will decide your life throughout high school for the upcoming five years. It is whether you will be famous or anonymous, bullied or praised and happy or stressful. This sort of things is familiar to most teenagers. According to that, teenagers love to take their stress away through eating sweets or heavy food, exercises, meditation and forcing ourselves to laugh. You may wonder why laughing is included. Laughing has been the best medicine for stress overtime. Scientifically, when we laugh or scream, alpha waves from our brain is released, hence relieving our minds free of stress. Don’t you think it is somehow familiar? It’s true; ‘Monster.inc.’ by Disney also uses this concept. Some of the huge problems with teenagers nowadays are how they handle their social life, social bonding with opposite sex, their health and achievements. I’ll pick one of these topics. Guess health do matters. So I’ll talk about it. Teenagers and health are strongly related. The most famous health problems among teenagers are obesity and diabetes. Teenagers...

One goal is to help yourself become aware of how you use your time as one resource in organizing, prioritizing, and succeeding in your studies in the context of competing activities of friends, work, family, etc. First: try our exercise in time management: How do you spend your time each day? Strategies on using time: These applications of time management have proven to be effective as good study habits. As we go through each strategy, jot down an idea of what each will look like for you: * Blocks of study time and breaks As your school term begins and your course schedule is set, develop and plan for, blocks of study time in a typical week. Blocks ideally are around 50 minutes, but perhaps you become restless after only 30 minutes? Some difficult material may require more frequent breaks. Shorten your study blocks if necessary-but don't forget to return to the task at hand! What you do during your break should give you an opportunity to have a snack, relax, or otherwise refresh or re-energize yourself. For example, place blocks of time when you are most productive: are you a morning person or a night owl? Jot down one best time block you can study. How long is it? What makes for a good break for you? Can you control the activity and return to your studies? * Dedicated study spaces Determine a place free from distraction (no cell phone or text messaging!) where you can maximize your concentration and be free of the distractions that friends or hobbies...

...several issues with each other and come to a conclusion best suited to all. No individual can perform alone. Tasks are accomplished at a much faster rate when the work load is shared among all and each one contributes in their best possible way. Nothing productive has ever come out of conflicts and disputes. They in turn lead to major rifts among employees and create stress at the workplace. Why to unnecessarily spoil relations with people? You never know when you might need the other person. Attitude plays an important role in improving the relationship among the individuals. Nothing is possible unless and until an individual has a positive attitude towards life. You might have excellent communication skills, might be an intelligent worker, but if you don’t have a positive attitude you would definitely fail to create an impression of yours. People would be reluctant to speak to you and you would be left all alone. An individual should never ever have a negative attitude at workplace. It is dangerous. Your organization pays you and in turn expects quality work from you, so why unnecessarily crib over things. It is always better to accept things with a smiling face. If your boss assigns you some task, it means that he finds you capable enough to handle the assignment. Consider yourself fortunate and the chosen one. Don’t make faces as your superior might feel bad and eventually lose his trust on you. Clear all your doubts with the person, who has delegated you the responsibility...

Individualization: I try to approach each or my patients, my patient’s family members, and my co-workers in a non-judgmental way. I like the challenge of trying to figure out what makes people “tick” or what motivates others. People have always told me that I Am really good at reading people. I enjoy finding out what makes each person unique and I enjoy learning how everyone is different. I think this is an invaluable skill as a nurse. Using kindness, tolerance, and empathy, I try to understand how each person can best receive information and then try to tailor my style or approach so that we can find a common ground or perhaps even a bond. I learned this skill early on in my nursing career as a psychiatric nurse but I have used it in every area I have worked in. I also try to use it with my co-workers. It’s an excellent skill to have in a team situation, I really enjoy getting everyone to work together. II. Strength: How has this strength manifested in your current practice (please be specific)?

I have been a part of so many incredible experiences and I am so lucky to be part of such a great health care team. I try to remember this every day. It makes me smile...

...things that are not fitted in your personality, and things that were not written in your life on earth. Thinking every day of what you want or what you really don’t need. Sometimes we wish things that we know we can’t have. We have to accept that not all people or even you were destined in what you want to be. There are millions of purposes for why it’s not meant for you. The unexpected never is and that’s life. No one could predict. No one could change what’s done. Every second past was part of our history. Every breath you take is something affect in your environment. Every time you make them happy was a moment for them. Your goals and plans are not the things that God will give to you. There’s always reason why. We can’t ask nor knew about it. Things that are not meant for you have a replacement. Replacement that is better in your future. So you don’t need to depress yourself on what’s not destined to you. Never give up on what you started for. There is one thing for you that you need to be patient for you to achieve it. Don’t just think that when you’re out of time or out of your mind you give it up. Try harder than you try. Try the best of best. Try to work on it. Don’t just let your goals see you crying for it. Sometimes in our life, God is trying to test us how your faith works to him. He makes us depressed and tired of trying and trying. As long as you can, try and try until you reached what you want. But remember, there are always things that are not really meant...

...stressful time of your life. Please keep in mind that even though you may hit a few bumps in the road, you will always be able to turn all the hard times into helpful, long-lasting memories. First thing to remember about stepping foot onto the college campus is to keep CALM. Try your hardest not to psych yourself out because you are living in a new environment on your own. College is a wonderful thing, so try not to look at it as being intimidating. That may be hard to do at first, but you are definitely not the only one who will be going through such a nerve racking experience. Always keep your head up and take each day one step at a time. A few good experiences of mine have been meeting and surrounding myself with the right people. You will notice that there is no such thing as a “clique”, which may be the best thing for someone who is meeting new people for the first time. Another great thing that has gotten me through such a difficult 4 months is the extra help we as athletes receive. I spent most of my time at the academic center, and that is probably the best tip I could give you. The academic center is a miracle, along with all the amazing people that work in there; you will never get steered in the wrong direction. I thought that having to adapt to a new team, and an all-girls team at that would be the biggest challenge going into college, but it has been the best experience of my life. You will come to find that these girls are going to be like your second family and...

...and during which both speak and listen from time to time. The effective interview: A job interview is a systematic, purposeful conversation. Your goal is to show the employer that you have the skills, background, and ability to do the job and that you can successfully fit into the company and its culture. It is also your opportunity to gather information about the job, the company, and future career opportunities to determine whether the job and the company are right for you. After your cover letter and résumé, the interview is your best opportunity to impress the employer. You can accomplish this by using effective interviewing skills. The best way to do this is to: Be Prepared It is very important to prepare for the interview by researching the job opening and the company. The more you know, the better. Try to find out when the interview is scheduled, what to expect, how long you will be there, and whether you will be speaking to one person or more. Interview Professionalism Arrive early, approximately 5-10 minutes. Leave some extra time to re-read your résumé, settle down, and be ready for the interview. Dress appropriately based on the environment of the job opening. Be Organized Bring extra copies of your résumé, and have names, addresses, and telephone numbers of references (in case the employer asks).

...very important aspect of life. Once you learn to properly manage your time, you will be able to accomplish a lot more in a typical day. Your life will become less stressful since you will be able focus on the things which are most important to you rather than things that are considered unimportant. Unimportant things tend to just waste your precious time (Hearn, 1)) Since our lives only consist of 24 hours, we need to be able to plan and schedule things that need to be done efficiently. In order to make an effective schedule, it is important to know what needs to be done and where we need to be. As stated by Wendy Hearn (1999-2011), “Time management is about you and how you would like to spend it.” Our daily activities need to be prioritized. We need to decide what is important to us not to others. This will make our lives more productive and a lot less stressful. You will even start to feel more in control of your life. Time Management is going to change you life for the better. Decide on a plan and label the things that you need done by the four D’s of time management. These are Do it, Delegate it, Dump it, and defer it. Everything on your to do list can be classified under one of these labels(Hearn, p.2). A poorly planed schedule will waste your time so, be careful when categorizing your daily tasks. “Make sure to write down all appointments, get together, and meetings and try your best to finish all important task immediately to avoid procrastinating“...

...Divorce or dissolution of marriage is a legal process in which a judge or other authority dissolves the bonds of matrimony existing between two persons, thus restoring them to the marital status of being single. A divorce does not declare a marriage null and void, as in an annulment, but rather declares that a fully consummated marriage is irretrievably broken and that it should be dissolved, allowing the parties to marry other individuals. Divorce laws vary considerably around the world. Divorce is not permitted in some countries, such as in Malta and in the Philippines, though an annulment is permitted. The legal process for divorce may also involve issues of spousal support, child custody, child support, distribution of property and division of debt, though these matters are usually only ancillary or consequential to the dissolution of the marriage. In some jurisdictions divorce does not require a party to claim fault of their partner that leads to the breakdown of marriage. But even in jurisdictions which have adopted the "no fault" principle in divorce proceedings, a court may still take into account the behaviour of the parties when dividing property, debts, evaluating custody, and support. In most jurisdictions, a divorce must be certified by a court of law to become effective. The terms of the divorce are usually determined by the court, though they may take into account prenuptial agreements or postnuptial agreements, or simply ratify terms that the spouses may have...
