...Intuitor, Thinker, Feeler, Senser: Which One Are You Talking To? The same message hits different people in different ways. But if you understand personality styles, you can tailor messages to fit. You’re excited and can’t wait to tell your team the good news: Your department has been asked to put together an ambitious product development plan. It’s a great opportunity to showcase the diverse talents of your team and increase your unit’s visibility in the company. So you gather everyone together and deliver the news. But your announcement falls flat. A few people seem engaged, but the enthusiasm you expected just isn’t there. What’s going on? Paradoxically, the problem may lie in one of your team’s strengths—its diversity. The team members all heard the same words, but they didn’t all hear the same message. The good news is that it’s fairly easy to get over such a communication disconnect. The key lies in understanding personality styles and honing your communications accordingly. The psychologist Carl Jung observed that people have certain psychological habits and preferences that influence how they process information, make decisions, and communicate with one another. By understanding different personality styles, you can tailor your own communication style to suit those of the people around you. Result: You convey your message in a way that will be most easily understood by listeners—and cut down on the risk of miscommunication. “Those people who read the style of the individuals...

...teach us. Learning is not only exclusive inside the classroom or in school. We even learn most in our daily experiences. But is it more effective or best to give focus on the positive actions and ignoring the negative ones? I believe that giving focus or attention to negative ones is as important as giving focus on the positive ones. As parents we are considered as the first teachers of our children, we teach our children the learning that we have learned while growing up. Our children and so as we as parents are not perfect, as we do good thing we also commit mistakes and so as our children. It is important that we let them know if what they are doing is right or wrong, because as parents we have this responsibility to our children to guide them become a better person. They look up to us as their role model, and most of them want to follow our foot step. If we will only focus on praising their good deeds or actions, how would they know that not doing bad is as important as doing good. For example, if you caught your child stealing money and you ignore this without even letting him/her know that it is wrong to steal he/she will not know it and he will grow up believing and knowing that stealing is okay and right to do but if the time you caught him stealing and you let him know that it is not good or correct to steal, he will grow up knowing that it is not right thing to do, the act of stealing will not be repeated. This is also the same to educators. As educators we...

...discussions of method-and-theory-in-general; so much of it interrupts his proper studies. It is much better, he believes, to have one account by a working student of how he is going about his work than a dozen 'codifications of procedure' by specialists who as often as not have never done much work of consequence. Only by conversations in which experienced thinkers exchange information about their actual ways of working can a useful sense of method and theory be imparted to the beginning student. I feel it useful, therefore, to report in some detail how I go about my craft. This is necessarily a personal statement, but it is written with the hope that others, especially those beginning independent work, will make it less personal by the facts of their own experience. 1 It is best to begin, I think, by reminding you, the beginning student, that the most admirable thinkers within the scholarly community you have chosen to join do not split their work from their lives. They seem to take both too seriously to allow such dissociation, and they want to use each for the enrichment of the other. Of course, such a split is the prevailing convention among men in general, deriving, I suppose, from the hollowness of the work which men in general now do. But you will have recognized that as a scholar you have the exceptional opportunity of designing away of living which will encourage the habits of good workmanship. Scholarship is a choice of how to live as well as a choice of career; whether...

No, I came some time ago: and I have been in the Agora looking for you, and wondering that I could not find you. Euc. But I was not in the city. Terp. Where then? Euc. As I was going down to the harbour, I met Theaetetus-he was being carried up to Athens from the army at Corinth. Terp. Was he alive or dead? Euc. He was scarcely alive, for he has been badly wounded; but he was suffering even more from the sickness which has broken out in the army. Terp. The dysentery, you mean? Euc. Yes. Terp. Alas! what a loss he will be! Euc. Yes, Terpsion, he is a noble fellow; only to-day I heard some people highly praising his behaviour in this very battle. Terp. No wonder; I should rather be surprised at hearing anything else of him. But why did he go on, instead of stopping at Megara? Euc. He wanted to get home: although I entreated and advised him to remain he would not listen to me; so I set him on his way, and turned back, and then I remembered what Socrates had said of him, and thought how remarkably this, like all his predictions, had been fulfilled. I believe that he had seen him a little before his own death, when Theaetetus was a youth, and he had a memorable conversation with him, which he repeated to me when I came to Athens; he was full of admiration of his genius, and said that...

...The benefits of Meditation 4 The Need for Protection 5 An Aura Protection Excercise 6 How does one meditate? 7 Helpful Hints 8 Seeing Images and Colours 9 Conclusion For Thomas and Phoebenale ONE WHAT IS MEDITATION? I entered Silence a thousand times before I saw the face of True Silence. Meditation is a natural state of mind. It is purely a mental activity. The main goal in meditation is to establish contact with the Divine within - the awakening of the Divine Consciousness within. The main point in meditation is for the activated life-force to do its purification work. Meditation is not a practice which one can grasp and become proficient overnight. You have made a beginning in meditation the very first instance that you close your eyes to make contact with the Divine within. Once you have learned to turn inward to make contact with the Divine within, you become the beholder of Its activity and expression so that you can draw your good from the Divine within. As people awaken generally, more and more are viewing meditation scientifically rather than as a mysterious exercise practised by so-called mystics. Do not be discouraged even if you seem to be making no progress in the early stage of meditation. With practice and perseverance, you can progress and may even master the art of meditation in due course. Regardless of how many years you have been practising meditation, you will find that it is a wonderful, personal, on-going adventure with unlimited possibilities. Meditation...
