GREAT COMMUNICATION SKILLS

When you realize the difference between good communication skills and the "Good for nothing communication skills", it will be easier for you to become a good communicator.
Communication is probably the one skill which made us distinct amongst the animals. Along with our ability to think, it has brought progress in the world. Since we are born with superb in built tools for communication, we often think we are born with good communication skills too.


Wonder why? Just because we have been doing it all our life..


It is true that from childhood you have been given verbal and non verbal inexplicit instructions on how to behave and talk to people. In spite of this, how many of us interrupt while others speak? On the other hand, how many of us can confidently say we are good in handling interruption?


We have been taught to speak to people rather than speak with them




In my experiments during the wandering days, I discovered that not only are these the default values passed on from generation to another; there was no proof that these were the best methods to use.


Most of them can't even be called good communication skills.
For example, while we are talking to others, seldom do we stop and ask ourselves what is it that I am trying to communicate? There is no definite goal for most of our conversations. From the childhood, we are taught that those who can talk faster are usually sharper than others. (Good communication skills?)




Whenever you are expressing a thought to someone, it is a good idea if you have an overall picture of what are you trying to convey.




If you have picture or a sound in mind that you want to convey, it will be much easier to achieve your goal. To start practicing good communication skills, start using this principle today! This is not applicable just for people, every business also should trains it employees on business communication skills so they can be represented in an appropriate manner in the market place.




Remember, it is not just the words that do the job; it's a lot of other things too..

How To Make Tissue Paper Flowers

Step 1: Cut sheets
Cut five sheets of tissue paper to the same size. The bigger the sheets, the bigger the flowers.


Tip :Mix two or more colors of paper to make really cool-looking flowers.


Step 2: Stack sheets
Stack the sheets one on top of the other so they overlap exactly.


Cut both ends of the paper into points or scallops to make your flowers more interesting and varied.


Step 3: Fold stack
Fold the stack of tissue paper like an accordion; first to one side, then to the other. Make sure the folds are even.


Step 4: Make stem
Bend a pipe cleaner three inches from its top and wrap it tightly around the center of the folded accordion. Twist the short end of the pipe cleaner around the long end so that it holds the paper together. This is your stem.


Step 5: Fluff sheets
Make your flower bloom by gently separating the sheets of tissue paper and fluffing them out. After you’ve made several flowers, arrange them in a vase and make them the centerpiece for dinner tonight.

SEEKING GREAT FRIENDSHIP?

Friendship is a great asset in life. Most people who dont have some sort of friendship with someone will be miserable.


Friendship is a key part of life. never throw away your friends for anyone or anything. If you do you will be miserable and alone your whole life.A friend in need, is a friend indeed' is a popular saying, given that people become friends when they need something from you. While this can sometimes be true,the feedback is also significant. When you are in need, then you find out who are your real friends.


When we ask some friends for help, they responded with concern. They listened without asking anything in return. They asked how they could help. These were real friends.


Others, who we also believed to be friends of the same part, responded first with selfish concerns. They asked if it was infectious in any way or that might somehow think twice to help. Fairweather friends are those who are most likely to appear when they are in need, when you are not in need. Real friends don't care about your need. They will help where they can and know that it's ok if they can only offer a little sympathy.


Those who were friends when all was well suddenly show their true colors.True friends will open hands for others anytime, anymhere.

Delicious Cake made in Malay

Hye friends......

Today, i want to talk about something that is related to pastry and bakery field which offered by most of instituition in Malaysia nowadays. But my focus here is, how many of the malay generations interested in learn how to make a cake and how many of them have the determination to stay in this field since there are many competence from chinese. Am i right? If we are aware of our environment, we would realised that most of the cake shop were owned by Chinese. An example of the Chinese cake shop is King's Bakery. This shop was well-known in our community. Even Malay people go there to buy cake and other type of cake.And the only one cake shop owned by Malay's is Gharizah Bakery which located at Seremban, Negeri Sembilan.
From that, we can see that not all Malay people success in pastry and bakery field. My older sister, 24 years old, she had taken pastry and bakery courses at Giatmara Pandan Indah, Selangor for one years. Now, she's trying to sell variety of cake and biscuit from home. And she plan to rent a shop for selling her product. Hope she will success in her career. If u have anything to comment about5 this issue, plese do so.
Thank you guys....

FAMILY AND COUPLE. WHO IS MORE IMPORTANT TO TEENAGERS NOWADAYS?

It is a nature of human if they want to loving someone and to be loved. What i mean here is someone that is other than parents and friends. Of course it must be our couples, am i right? Sometimes, people or teenagers willing to run away from home and follow their couples everytime they have problems with thier parents.And sometimes they tend to spend more time with their couples rather than spend their precious time with family.They are also willing to burn their parents money by buying presents for their lover one.Is it worth to do that kind of thing? But people doesn't realize about it. What i'm trying to say here is teenagers nowadays make couples as their priority. They worth their couples more than their parents that have taken care of them since child. So, what do you think about this issue? For me, it's never ending. You can freely share your opinion and ideas regarding this issue..
