Reflaction of trigger video,



Why the women starring at the man?

The lady with her child looked at the man in suspicious way. She doubted that the man is thief and bringing some money or drugs or any suspicious items in his bags.

The man in the video looks as an Asian with has black beard and he is walking very calm and slowly. He is wearing his traditional cloths. He doesn't look anybody.  He is carrying one black bag.

As per about my view about the next  , I think that man with the bag has something wrong such as drugs, stolen money, and I guess that the cop might arrest the Asian man but the Criminal would be the other man shown in the video.

REFLECTION OF THE TRIGGER VIDEO - DAVID.S

1.She looked at the man in negative way. The man came by the  sub way & She taught something bad about     the man and  she starred at the man, after seeing his face & looking his big bag. she thought  that he is            bringing some unwanted things. The Man walked slowly. He looked at her and she got afraid.

2.1  The first man was looking good.I saw his body language which was not good. He was walking fast by           looking around.

2.2   The second man was looking calm.There were more expectation in his eyes and face.


3.    I thought that the polices came to catch the first Man. Because he was walking fast with fear.The way he        entered is something different.

Reflection of The Trigger Video

In the trigger video, the lady with her daughter looks suspicious about the man. Mainly because of his looks. The man in the video seems to be an Indian and he looks calm and pleasant. He is wearing his traditional attire. He doesn't bother about the looks of the lady. And to talk about my opinion about the next move, I think it is something in relation with the man we had first seen in the video because he was quite quick in his steps. I guess that the cop might catch hold the Indian but the defaulter would be the other man shown in the video.

Look At Life Differently


Hello!

We all have heard time and again about motivation and power of it, the stories below might interest you.


1. Everyone has a Story in Life


A 24 year old boy seeing out from the train’s window shouted…
“Dad, look the trees are going behind!”
Dad smiled and a young couple sitting nearby, looked at the 24 year old’s childish behavior with pity,
suddenly he again exclaimed…
“Dad, look the clouds are running with us!”
The couple couldn't resist and said to the old man…
“Why don’t you take your son to a good doctor?”
The old man smiled and said…
“I did and we are just coming from the hospital, my son was blind from birth, he just got his eyes today.

Every single person on the planet has a story. Don’t judge people before you truly know them. The truth might surprise you.

2. Shake off your problems


A man's favorite donkey falls into a deep precipice; 
He can't pull it out no matter how hard he tries; 
He therefore decides to bury it alive. 

Soil is poured onto the donkey from above. 
The donkey feels the load, shakes it off, and steps on it; 
More soil is poured. 

It shakes it off and steps up; 
The more the load was poured, the higher it rose; 
By noon, the donkey was grazing in green pastures. 

After much shaking off (of problems) 
And stepping up (learning from them), 
One will graze in GREEN PASTURES.

3. The Elephant Rope


As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,” trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

The man was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were.

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

4. Potatoes, eggs, and coffee beans


Once upon a time a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn’t know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed.

Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes in one pot, eggs in the second pot, and ground coffee beans in the third pot.

He then let them sit and boil, without saying a word to his daughter. The daughter, moaned and impatiently waited, wondering what he was doing.

After twenty minutes he turned off the burners. He took the potatoes out of the pot and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl.

He then ladled the coffee out and placed it in a cup. Turning to her he asked. “Daughter, what do you see?”

“Potatoes, eggs, and coffee,” she hastily replied.

“Look closer,” he said, “and touch the potatoes.” She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to sip the coffee. Its rich aroma brought a smile to her face.

“Father, what does this mean?” she asked.

He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and coffee beans had each faced the same adversity– the boiling water.

However, each one reacted differently.

The potato went in strong, hard, and unrelenting, but in boiling water, it became soft and weak.

The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid interior until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard.

However, the ground coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new.

“Which are you,” he asked his daughter. “When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a potato, an egg, or a coffee bean? “

Moral:
In life, things happen around us, things happen to us, but the only thing that truly matters is what happens within us.

A POUND OF BUTTER


There was a farmer who sold a pound of butter to the baker. One day the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting a pound and he found that he was not. This angered him and he took the farmer to court. The judge asked the farmer if he was using any measure. The farmer replied, amour Honor, I am primitive. I don't have a proper measure, but I do have a scale." The judge asked, "Then how do you weigh the butter?" The farmer replied "Your Honor, long before the baker started buying butter from me, I have been buying a pound loaf of bread from him. Every day when the baker brings the bread, I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter. If anyone is to be blamed, it is the baker."


What is the moral of the story? We get back in life what we give to others. Whenever you take an action, ask yourself this question: Am I giving fair value for the wages or money I hope to make? Honesty and dishonesty become a habit. Some people practice dishonesty and can lie with a straight face. Others lie so much that they don't even know what the truth is anymore. But who are they deceiving? Themselves

value


Value-A well known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?"
Hands started going up.
He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this." He proceeded to crumple the dollar bill up.
He then asked, "Who still wants it?"Still the hands were up in the air.
"Well," he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.
He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty. "Now who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.
"My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20. Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.
We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. You are special - Don't ever forget it!

FACILITATOR SKILLS AND TIPS

FACILITATOR SKILLS AND TIPS


Here are a few more points to remember that will help to maximize your role as a facilitator:

DON'T MEMORIZE A SCRIPT

Even with a well-prepared agenda and key points you must make, you need to be flexible and natural. If people sense that you are reading memorized lines, they will feel like they are being talked down to, and won't respond freely.

WATCH THE GROUP'S BODY LANGUAGE

Are people shifting in their seats? Are they bored? Tired? Looking confused? If folks seem restless or in a haze, you may need to take a break, or speed up or slow down the pace of the meeting. And if you see confused looks on too many faces, you may need to stop and check in with the group, to make sure that everyone knows where you are in the agenda and that the group is with you.

ALWAYS CHECK BACK WITH THE GROUP

Be careful about deciding where the meeting should go. Check back after each major part of the process to see if there are questions and that everyone understands and agrees with decisions that were made.

SUMMARIZE AND PAUSE

When you finish a point or a part of the meeting process, sum up what was done and decided, and pause for questions and comments before moving on. Learn to "feel out" how long to pause -- too short, and people don't really have time to ask questions; too long, and folks will start to get uncomfortable from the silence.

BE AWARE OF YOUR OWN BEHAVIOR

Take a break to calm down if you feel nervous or are losing control. Watch that you're not repeating yourself, saying "ah" between each word, or speaking too fast. Watch your voice and physical manner. (Are you standing too close to folks so they feel intimidated, making eye contact so people feel engaged?) How you act makes an impact on how participants feel.

OCCUPY YOUR HANDS

Hold onto a marker, chalk, or the back of a chair. Don't play with the change in your pocket!

WATCH YOUR SPEECH

Be careful you are not offending or alienating anyone in the group. Use swear words at your own risk!

USE BODY LANGUAGE OF OUR OWN

Using body language to control the dynamics in the room can be a great tool. Moving up close to a shy, quiet participant and asking them to speak may make them feel more willing, because they can look at you instead of the big group and feel less intimidated. Also, walking around engages people in the process. Don't just stand in front of the room for the entire meeting.

DON'T TALK TO THE NEWSPRINT, BLACKBOARD OR WALLS--THEY CAN'T TALK BACK!

Always wait until you have stopped writing and are facing the group to talk.

Job Opportunities - Some Tips - David.S

                                                       Job Opportunities [ For Trainees ]

 Dear Trainees,

            Job will never come to you, you need to search it. There are different modes for searching job opportunities according to your qualification.  You can search jobs in the newspaper, business magazines, and employment bulletins. You can also search jobs through the Internet and E-mail facilities.  Before searching for jobs you should prioritize the jobs.  Do not aim for only one job but at least aim for five jobs according to your qualification.  Do not always aim for full time jobs but also aim for part time job where you can learn more, get to know the people more and can get an experience of jobs.  Remember one thing “all jobs are noble.”
            Understanding the advertisements in the newspaper is a hard task, because the prospectus changes from company to company. Here are some tips: -


  • Get to know the salary or the wages first and compare it with your monthly expenses.
  • Get to know the increments, stipend, allowances, benefits and incentives.
  • Get to know the responsibilities of the job, the qualifications needed and the rules and regulations of the company.
  • Compare your qualification with the need qualification
  • Have a special look at the advertisements that ask for experience.
  • Always think about the future when you want to take a job.

Do not always aim for white collar job, always use the entry point and get promoted to good job.  In order to get promoted update your qualifications aiming always higher.  If you want to retain your job in the company, try to:


  1. Put your heart and soul will full intellectual capacities into your work.
  2. Try to get the hobs that give more incentives which will encourage you.
  3. Always look out for the opportunities to grow do not stick to one portfolio through out your life.
  4. The automatic promotion system is outdated, now search for promotion.
  5. Keep in mind the allowances given to you by the company. 
  6. Always keep a good rapport with the higher authorities as well as co-workers.
  7. Don’t aim for salary but for job-satisfaction.
