Pollyannaish drivel
June 1, 2017
Question
This Pollyannaish drivel reminds me of the adage, "Cheer up things could be worse"
"So I cheered up."
"And sure enough, things got worse."
Stephen - USA (28068)
Answer
The way I remember the adage was: I was feeling down and depressed, when I heard this voice saying, "Cheer up, things could be worse." So I cheered up, and sure enough, things got worse." The first part is important.
That is a humorous view on a philosophy concerning your attitude. I believe a positive viewpoint is better than a negative one. Of course, each person can have his or her own philosophy.

Reaching for a goal that seems impossible
August 26, 2015
Question
how do one reach for a goal that seems impossible?
Abiola - Nigeria (26334)
Answer
When you set a goal to get or achieve something difficult, it is important to consider what is required to achieve that goal. You can then break the goal into smaller goals that you can achieve on the way to the greater goal.
For example, if you wanted to get an important job, you would have look at the requirements for such a position. You may need a certain education or recommendations. You would also need persistence in your application.
As you go along achieving the smaller goals, you can congratulate yourself in getting closer to your main objective.
Best wishes on achieving your goals.

Wants lifestyle with sports and academic life
November 13, 2014
Question
I want to have a lifestyle where I want to balance sports and academic life.
arunachalam - India (25531)
Answer
Certainly, while you are going to school, you can be involved in sports as well as your academic life. In fact, it is a good combination, as long as the sports does not overshadow the studies.
After leaving school, you can still balance sports and work. If you are a teacher, the work can be academic activities. Many people get involved in sports and physical activities after work. Of course, it is also possible to become a coach, where you combine the two.
Best wishes for having a great lifestyle.

Correct Make-a-Wish wording
May 19, 2014
Question
Just a comment on the content that you have on your site.
"One solution to this problem is to look at the Make-a-Wish Foundation. This is an organization that tries to satisfy the last big wish of terminally ill children."
Terminally-ill is NO LONGER correct verbiage. "We grant the wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy"
Just thought you might want to have that corrected on your site.
Thank you!

Answer
Thanks for your feedback. I corrected the wording in Make a Wish for the Rest of Your Life.

I am not consistent with anything
May 15, 2014
Question
I am not consistent with anything in my life:
--reliability
--being on time
--exercise
--eating habits
--basically everything
Need immediate change.
Regards,
Joe - USA (24962)
Answer
It is good that you are aware of areas that need improvement in your life. Many people just go along making the same old mistakes. You have a good list of things to work on.
Being reliable means that you are good for your word and do what is promised. When you are unreliable, you are putting the other person on the spot. If you can't do something, don't promise. If something comes up, be considerate and let the other person know.
Realize that the person who is habitually late is being inconsiderate and saying that his time is more important. However, many people just always seem to be late for everything. My cousin and her husband were like that, so they set their clocks 20 minutes fast so that they would be on time. It seemed silly, but it worked for them.
The best type of exercise is the type that is fun. Get involved in playing some games or doing exercising of some sort with a friend or in a group. It isn't such a drudgery then.
Try to eat healthy foods at dinner time and avoid sugary, salty, and fatty snacks.
Make a list of the things you want to improve on:
-- Be reliable and on time, so people can count on you
-- Do enjoyable exercises several times a week, and eat healthy foods.
The fact that you want to improve is a first major step. Best wishes in succeeding in your goals. I'm sure you have it in you.

How do I get started as a speaker?
February 15, 2014
Question
How do I get started as a speaker minus resources eg books what can I do?
chelete - Zambia (24520)
Answer
First, you need to have a subject to speak about. It should be something of interest to others. See Succeed in Speech Writing for ideas.
Try to write a speech that takes 5 minutes to read. That is a good start.
Also see Succeed in Public Speaking for more information.
Try to attend speeches in your area to see how others do it. Also, seek opportunities to give your speech to small groups at work, around your community, and such.
I hope this helps you start on becoming a speaker. Best wishes.
Success Secrets
Want to achieve but I am shy and timid
February 4, 2014
Question
Good day Sir/Ma. I want to achieve my goals, but my problem is that am too shy. I can't withstand the crowd.. I dont have confidence on myself, and i didn't finish school... Please advice me both on how i can eradicate timidity. Bright is the name.
bright - Nigeria (24490)
Answer
You may be shy about approaching and talking to strangers, but I am sure you are not shy when talking to your family and friends. You can have the same confidence in talking to strangers by being yourself.
Do not try to impress others who may affect your goals. Instead, observe them to know something to talk about. Then ask the other person a question about his or her interests. Even something simple as, "What do you think of this weather?" can start a conversation. Then talk about the other person's interests.
It is good to be prepared to tell about yourself, if asked. You can tell what you do or enjoy.
To gain confidence, think of all the things you have achieved. And when you do something, give yourself praise. Say to yourself, "Goo job, Bright." This will help increase your confidence.
Finally, note that the best sales people are not those who talk a lot. Instead, the best ones are those who listen to the customer and ask questions. Some may say they are timid, but they do the best job.
I hope these ideas help you become the champion you are destined to become.
PS: Make an effort to study to complete your education.
