You Can be Great If You Really Want To

Learning, Leadership and Problem solving: Life Through games. Part Two

Hasan Yahya, Ph.Ds

Part Two: From the Beatles, album “Abbey Road.” 1969. One part sings these words:   “Boy, you’re gonna carry that weight,  Carry that weight a long time” repeated twice. When you read these words, or hear the song, you decide that you will gonna carry that weight, all your life. But you will never  break down on new ideas. Life of individuals as well as life of nations are similar games dealing with biological, social, economic and political aspects of life. And you have to play your role in it. As one person, with various may be different roles you play in different times, places, and circumstances. As alone, or as a family member, or as a community member depends on others to live, or as a leader in some periods of your daily life, or sometimes of your day time or night time.  Any moment, you have to satisfy your needs, even while you are sleeping, eating, having sex, learning, or teaching, or traveling or leading or following other persons, or reacting to other person or persons actions. You will be involved somehow in life activities alone or else. You have no choice, because you are created for certain roles and you have to fulfill these roles according to the implied circumstances. Otherwise, you will live alone, bored all the time, which is close to be impossible after birth.

Stress can be damaging to all aspects of your life. It can make you irritable, unproductive, and even give you health problems later on in life. People have been learning how to deal with stress for decades now, and they’ve compiled all of their tips into a variety of guides for you to use. Many of these guides can be found online now for free, and if you suffer from stress in your life, then you should definitely check them out. One of the best ways to deal with stress is through stress management games, which help you relax even when there is a lot of stress present.

Counter Stress

Stress management games work because they don’t require people to completely change their lifestyles. You won’t be required to change any of your routines, and these stress management games are easy to play and pick up anywhere. Unlike other stress management programs, games work by countering the effects of a stressful environment instead of removing the source of stress, essentially achieving the same results ultimately. You can continue to work fifty hour weeks, but you’ll find that stress doesn’t bother you nearly as much when you use techniques to counter it.

Many stress management games are ones that you’re already familiar with. Board and video games are both great ways to relax, but you should stick with the casual ones and away from more competitive games, as the latter might simply a little more stress. However, another way way to defeat stress is through the use of Yoga or other meditative practices. These really make your body comfortable, and there are more choices than ever with the growing market for meditative materials.

Of course, the healthiest stress management games are the ones where you exercise, and not just because they tone your muscles and help you lose those extra pounds (though you’ll also appreciate those benefits when you’re done). Playing tennis, swimming, and golfing can all help you deal with stress, and you’ll also have fun doing them. However, exercises like weight lifting and running aren’t necessarily great stress management games because they place a lot of strain on your body, which can translate into stress. At the very least, you won’t find their benefits to be nearly as helpful as with more casual exercise games, but they’re still very helpful to keep you healthy. If you’re looking to counter stress in your life, then stress management games will help you have fun while doing that.

All of us are short of time, and most often if we want to advance our future prospects, getting educated alongside a job is the only option open to us. Microsoft authorised training could offer a solution.

Maybe you’d like to look for a person who’s got industry experience, who might give you help to sort out what sort of job would suit you, and what sort of tasks are correct for a person with your character and ability.

Training programs must be customised to suit your ability level and skills. So, having worked out the most fruitful career for you, your next requirement is the most suitable program that will get you into that job.

Always expect an authorised exam preparation system included in your course.

Students regularly can get thrown by practicing questions for their exams that aren’t recognised by the authorised examining boards. Sometimes, the phraseology is unfamiliar and you need to be ready for this.

Why don’t you verify your knowledge through tests and mock ups of exams to get you ready for the proper exam.

People attracted to this sort of work are often very practical, and aren’t really suited to the classroom environment, and endless reading of dry academic textbooks. If you’re thinking this sounds like you, try the newer style of interactive study, with on-screen demonstrations and labs.

Research into the way we learn shows that much more of what we learn in remembered when we use all our senses, and we get practically involved in what we’re studying.

Top of the range study programs now offer interactive CD and DVD ROM’s. Instructor-led tutorials will mean you’ll learn your subject through the expert demonstrations. Then you test your knowledge by utilising the practice lab’s and modules.

You really need to look at the type of training provided by each company you’re contemplating. It’s essential they incorporate video, demonstrations and various interactive elements.

It’s usually bad advice to go for purely on-line training. Because of the variable quality and reliability of your average broadband company, make sure you get disc based courseware (On CD or DVD).

A useful feature that several companies offer is a programme of Job Placement assistance. It’s intention is to help you find your first job in the industry. The need for this feature can be bigged up out of proportion though – it’s easy for eager sales people to overplay it. At the end of the day, the massive skills shortage in this country is what will make you attractive to employers.

Bring your CV up to date as soon as possible however (advice can be sought on this via your provider). Don’t procrastinate and leave it till the exams have actually been passed.

Having the possibility of an interview is far better than not even being known about. A surprising amount of junior positions are offered to students in the early stages of their course.

If it’s important to you to find work near your home, then it’s quite likely that a local (but specialised) recruitment consultancy might be of more use than the trainer’s recruitment division, as they’re far more likely to be familiar with the local job scene.

Just ensure you don’t conscientiously work through your course materials, and then just stop and imagine someone else is miraculously going to sort out your employment. Take responsibility for yourself and get out there. Invest as much focus into landing the right position as it took to pass the exams.

Wouldn’t it be great to know for sure that our jobs will remain safe and our work prospects are protected, but the growing reality for most sectors in the United Kingdom currently is that security may be a thing of the past.

But a fast growing sector, with huge staffing demands (as there is a massive shortfall of properly qualified workers), provides a market for lasting job security.

The computing Industry skills shortage throughout Great Britain clocks in at around twenty six percent, as shown by the 2006 e-Skills survey. Quite simply, we only have the national capacity to fill 3 out of every four jobs in IT.

This one idea in itself reveals why the UK is in need of a lot more people to join the industry.

While the market is growing at such a speed, is there any other market worth investigating for your new career.
