How To Read and Interpret Body Language Body language or nonverbal communication is a strong and often neglected form of communication. Although we instinctively use gestures to signal emotions, we are barely aware of it. Yet, we subconsciously react to these signals when we see them in others. Understanding body language and using that knowledge can give you a huge advantage over people who don’t pay attention. Bodycom has a short quiz that will give you an idea whether you’re instinctively able to read and interpret body language. So, what can you gain from being able to read nonverbal gestures?

The Business Chef: Gordon Ramsay Column by Janine Popick, Inc.com "Female CEOs" August 20, 2009 I'll admit it, I love watching any TV show with Gordon Ramsay in it, but "Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares" is my current favorite. He’s the antithesis of the stereotypical woman leader; he’s brazen and harsh. He swears like a sailor and belittles people. Not my style of leadership, but it makes for great TV. I like the show because he gets down into the inner workings of a small business and peels away the onion to find any issues that might be hampering the business from growing. So, I've outlined 6 things we can all learn from Gordon Ramsay, followed by a question you can ask yourself to see how you rate by his business strategy. #1 - It all starts with the customer. One of the first questions Chef asks the restaurant he is working with is how many people have reserved for the evening. Question: When was the last time you surveyed your customers to find out what they think about your business, your product or your service?
47 Mind-Blowing Psychology-Proven Facts You Should Know About Yourself - StumbleUpon I’ve decided to start a series called 100 Things You Should Know about People.

PsyBlog: Discover Your Character Strengths in 15 Minutes Take the ‘Values in Action Inventory of Strengths’ survey to identify your character strengths. The classic question psychologists get asked at parties when they reveal their profession is: “Are you analysing me?” A good answer for any psychologist who wants to be invited to more parties is: “Yes, and I find you to be a wonderful human being!” This helps underline the fact that stereotypically psychologists are obsessed with deficits and disorders. Just look at the title of the clinical psychologists’ and psychiatrists’ bible, the ‘Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders’, also known as ‘the DSM’. Doesn’t sound that warm and cuddly, does it? To help counter this prevailing tendency towards the negative, psychologists Christopher Peterson and Martin Seligman wanted to create an anti-DSM, a Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Positive strengths and virtues. Inventory of strengths To create the VIA, Peterson and Seligman (2005) came up with 6 virtues and 24 strengths.

Sampling Terminology « PreviousHomeNext » As with anything else in life you have to learn the language of an area if you're going to ever hope to use it. Here, I want to introduce several different terms for the major groups that are involved in a sampling process and the role that each group plays in the logic of sampling. The major question that motivates sampling in the first place is: "Who do you want to generalize to?" Or should it be: "To whom do you want to generalize?" In most social research we are interested in more than just the people who directly participate in our study. Once you've identified the theoretical and accessible populations, you have to do one more thing before you can actually draw a sample -- you have to get a list of the members of the accessible population. People often confuse what is meant by random selection with the idea of random assignment. Copyright �2006, William M.K.

How to know if someone is lying to you How to know if someone is lying to you Suppose that you went to a friend of yours with a smile on your face and then told him that you were sad, will he believe you? No, he would never believe you because he can see the smile on your face. In other words he noticed the inconsistency between your words and your facial expression. You might think that Nobody smiles when he is sad and you are right about that but I’m not talking about conscious inconsistencies; I’m talking about unconscious ones. Your subconscious mind controls many of your involuntary functions like that of breathing, sweating, heart-beating....etc. When someone attempts to lie he will usually control his facial expressions and his tone of voice but his unconscious mind will still control all other involuntary signals like his body language and respiration rate. These unconscious signals are the ones you can use to detect if that person is lying. Signs that Show if Someone Is Lying Lying Detection Final Note Did that help?
Alzheimer's Patient "Awakens" When Listening to Music From His Past To watch Henry—an elderly man who has spent over ten years in a nursing home, barely able to answer yes or no questions—come alive when listening to music from his past is a reminder of the powerful, inspiring, and affecting power of music. A new documentary, Alive Inside, follows the “awakening” that occurs when people suffering from memory loss and Alzheimer’s are given music they have a strong emotional connection to — often, music they grew up with. In the clip, Henry is barely responsive before one of his caretakers puts headphones on him and starts up one of his favorite tunes. Almost instantly, we see Henry swaying from side to side and singing, his eyes wide open. “The philosopher Kant once called music the ‘quickening art.’ And Henry is being quickened, he’s being brought to life,” says Dr. After his headphones are taken off, Henry answers questions about his favorite music, speaking excitedly and recalling memories.

Develop Willpower Details Category: Chuck Gallozzi Published on Sunday, 19 April 2009 19:46 Written by Chuck Gallozzi He who lives without discipline dies without honor If we are to be the master of our destiny, we need self-discipline, self-control, willpower, or self-mastery. However, not everyone wants to improve. All right, so we agree willpower is necessary, but how do we strengthen it? You can also deliberately do what you'd rather not. Suppose I were to place a 15-foot long by 2-foot wide plank, 6 inches above the ground and offer you $500 to walk across it, would you do so? Another hurdle for willpower to overcome is the extra effort that is needed when doing something unpleasant. We know what is best for us.
Overcoming Inferiority Complex Achievements and inferiority Any Attempt you take to achieve success or to become superior will certainly be of a great benefit to your life ,however, all of these achievements will act as a crust that covers the inferiority complex you suffer from instead of helping you get over it. Overcoming inferiority complex can never happen by collecting money, authority, power or social approval simply because any attempt that you take to gain self-worth based on materialistic achievements will result in the loss of this self worth as soon as you lose these achievements. The same thing exactly goes for affirmations that some people use to help them get rid of inferiority complex. The problem with affirmations is that they tend to help the person create a lie and live it without treating the underlying cause for his inferiority and that's why his feelings of inferiority will never disappear. Dealing with inferiority complex First of all you must determine the root cause for your inferiority.
