Active Listening

Hear what people are really saying

Listening is one of the most important skills you can have. How well you listen has a major impact on your job effectiveness, and on the quality of your relationships with others.

We listen to obtain information. 
We listen to understand. 
We listen for enjoyment. 
We listen to learn.

Given all this listening we do, you would think we'd be good at it!

In fact most of us are not. Depending on the study being quoted, we remember between 25% and 50% of what we hear. That means that when you talk to your boss, colleagues, customers or spouse for 10 minutes, they pay attention to less than half of the conversation. This is dismal!

Turn it around and it reveals that when you are receiving directions or being presented with information, you aren't hearing the whole message either. You hope the important parts are captured in your 25-50%, but what if they're not?

Clearly, listening is a skill that we can all benefit from improving. By becoming a better listener, you will improve your productivity, as well as your ability to influence, persuade and negotiate. What's more, you'll avoid conflict and misunderstandings. All of these are necessary for workplace success!

Qualities of a Good student !!

Today’s students are tomorrow’s leaders of a country and the qualities of the student clearly determine the students’ bright future and carrier path. So, who is a good student? What are the qualities of a good student? Historically, the term ‘student’ referred anyone who learns something. However, the recent definition of a “student” is anyone who attends school, college, or university.

Here are some of the qualities :

Attitude: Basically, a good student possesses the ability and willingness to learn new subjects even the subjects are not interesting.

Academic skills: Acquiring academic skills is the most important quality of a good student. Ability to read comprehensively, to write effectively, to speak fluently, and to communicate clearly are the key areas in which a good student must be proficient. Having a good handle in all these areas will make a student to shine in a class.

Ability: A good student has the ability to apply the results of his or her learning in to a creative way and achieve the goals.

Perceptiveness: How well a student can interpret and perceive meanings from a conversation greatly determines the quality of a good. A good student always perceives right meaning from conversations, but an average student often misunderstands the original thoughts of a speaker or writer and derives a wrong conclusion.

Self-Discipline: Discipline in managing the time is an important factor that every good student must possess. Often times, delaying the tasks, such as writing assignments, reading text books, etc, may negatively impact the ability of a student to achieve the goals.

Understanding rather than memorizing concepts: A lot of surveys suggest students must understand the concepts rather than just memorizing them. The memorized facts and theories will stay in students’ memory until they leave school, college, or university. Once out of school, the students will totally forget the core concepts that they learned. Therefore, it is essential a good student understand the concepts.

Important five steps to *study*

How to Study and Make the Most of Your Time

Effective study skills must be practiced in order for you to improve. It is not enough to simply "think about" studying; you have to actually do it, and in the process use information from what you do to get better. This is the central idea of this page. All that follows depends on this single concept. There is a saying that goes like this: "Practice doesn't make perfect; perfect practice makes perfect." If you want to be an achiever, take this saying to heart.

The value of a schedule

Before you even begin to think about the process of studying, you must develop a schedule. If you don't have a schedule or plan for studying, then you will not have any way of allocating your valuable time when the unexpected comes up. A good, well thought out schedule can be a lifesaver. It's up to you to learn how develop a schedule that meets your needs, revise it if necessary, and most important, follow it.

A schedule saves time

All schedules should be made with the idea that they can be revised. A good schedule keeps you from wandering off course. A good schedule, if properly managed, assigns time where time is needed, but you've got to want to do it!

Making every hour count

A schedule should take into account every class, laboratory, lecture, social event, and other work in which you engage. There are givens such as classes and so on that have to be incorporated. You must focus on the other "free time" available and how you will use it. Make a weekly schedule and block off the 24 hour day in one hour increments. Indicate times for classes, labs, lectures, social, and work time. Also block off a period for sleeping each day. With what is left over, plan time for study. This gives you a rough road map of the time available. Of course, you can revise your schedule as circumstances warrant.

When to study

The problem of when to study is critical. A good rule of thumb is that studying should be carried out only when you are rested, alert, and have planned for it. Last minute studying just before a class is usually a waste of time.

good luck for all

why do women cry so easily??

A little girl asked her mother, Why are you crying
Because I'm a woman, she told her
I don't understand, she said. her Mom just hugged her and said, And you never will
Later the little girl asked her father, Why does mother seem to cry
for no reason 
All women cry for no reason, was all her dad could say
The girl still didn't get an answer! so she only had her old grandfather to ask
The little girl asked her grandfather , why do women cry so easily
The grandfather said, when God made women, she had to be special. 
God made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet ! gentle enough to give comfort
God gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children
God gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up,
and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining
God gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly
God gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart
God gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, 
but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly
And finally, God gave her a tear to shed. This is hers exclusively to use whenever it is needed
You see my daughter the beauty of a woman is not in the
clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair
The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to
her heart - the place where love resides .
