A yes-person is normally someone who says "yes" to everything; a request, a job, an opportunity, or an event. Some people think that saying "yes" to everything comes with risks. Things are good at first but might go wrong later. But, for me, saying "yes" has brought chances rather than worries.
Here is a good example to show the power of saying "yes" and is effect on my life. My boss once asked me to give a speech to a large group of people. I had never done public speaking before, but I knew that I speech just fine. My boss was so pleased that he trusted me with more important tasks since then.
Looking back on my work experiences I think about what would have happened if I had said "no" to some challenging tasks. Maybe I would never have made so much progress in my job. Saying "yes" has allowed me to move up at work, and I have grown from it
Saying "yes" to something that you might be uncomfortable with, like a task that is outside your comfort zone, can have positive results. Some times, you just need to give it a try. Actually if you want to get anywhere in life, you can' t be lazy and closed off. It's really that simple.
Have you ever draw n pictures on your notebooks when you are siting in class? If so, your teacher might have told you to stop. Many people think doodling (胡写乱画) may stop you paying attention to what you are doing. But it might be just the opposite.
One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear. In 2009, researchers asked two groups of people to listen to a phone message. One group was encouraged to doodle, but the other was not. Neither group knew that they would be asked to remember information from the message. But the group that doodled remembered29% more.
Other people suggest other uses for doodling. Jesse Prinz, a professor who studies doodling, says it can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to d raw might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you will have a fresh idea and get an answer more quickly.
An author named Sunni Brown wrote a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. She admits that people see doodling as doing nothing but she wants to change that. In fact, she owns a business that helps companies improve management effectiveness through doodling.
Brown believes doodling is helpful because it includes more than one way of learning. You learn in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading and writing. The more ways you use, the better you learn. And when you doodle while listening to a lecture, you are using all four.
You might think that being good at drawing is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it doesn't matter what the picture looks like. Even if you are not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need to focus, pick up a pen and doodle away.
Plant-based ice creams have become a good summer choice these days. If you doubt it, you may go to a local store and count all the ice creams that do not use cows' milk. Actually, plant-based ice cream sales have a 300% increase since 2018.
