DARE
Conquer Shyness With A Challenge To Yourself
Copyright © 2005 Conceive and Believe

Timidity is quite a common experience, especially during uncommon times. It makes us feel hesitant, more often than not compelling us to second guess our thoughts and deeds. These anxious moments makes us withdraw ourselves from things that could only enrich our lives. No wonder there have been a lot of studies conducted throughout the years about this subject matter, by experts who have devoted their lives to find a solution for it.

Who are shy people anyway? They are those who go to the supermarket and are afraid even to talk with the sales person. They turn red before saying the first words and when they do they never say it load enough, so they have to repeat it. No matter how hard they try, it goes worse every time. The more they strive not to blush, the redder they become.

What about work, you’d probably ask? Well, indeed, shy people have to work as well. But they say shy persons never get bored, as they are always trying to observe the others and improve themselves.

This is why shy people have often been judged as an introspective lot, although they normally don’t dare to get in contact with many persons. Despite the fact that during their teenaged years, these people little to no social life, most of them grew up as great human resources manages or psychologists, precisely because being left outside the group, they could analyze the others better. Also they tend to choose careers that imply a lot of PR work, just because they need to prove themselves they can do it.

But there’s also another great thing about introverted people – they are, just like us, curious and, since they normally have nobody to ask, they start reading books or research on the internet. How many good-looking, successful and extroverted people do you think still read nowadays? As a result, shy persons have all the opportunities in the world to get good positions, in almost any field. They are hard working, they can keep their mouth shut and they can be loyal.

Furthermore, timid persons have started to rejoice such good fame lately that we, the daring should learn some lessons from. Did you know that they actually have more contact with the public than the rest of us normally do? That happens because shy people give others a feeling of serenity – they don’t seem capable of talking over somebody else’s private issues.

This may be sound ridiculous, but many actually believe that high heels were actually designed for shy women. They need to prove to themselves that they can stand above the rest. These kinds of persons are fighters, so if, by any chance, you are a member of this group, don’t be embarrassed! You belong to a group of the most motivated persons in the world! For the rest of us, I would say that being a little shy, from time to time, could bring out some nice results!

The bottom line is this: you will never be able to triumph if you would refuse to dare. So dare… and live life that way it is meant to be lived!

Can there be two careers under the same roof?

Thursday, June 30th, 2005

MARITAL DIFFERENCES
Can there be two careers under the same roof?

What’s the number one cause for failed marriages these days? Infidelity? Perhaps, but I’m thinking more of something that can be rooted to the couple themselves? Finances? Close, but there should be something more than just a clash of budgetary concerns. Careers? Ahhh, now we’re talking.

It has become practical these days that both spouses engage in their respective careers to better provide for the needs of the family. On paper, this seems to be an ideal scenario. However, in practice, this setup seems to cause more trouble than benefits.

Sadly, there is a certain category of persons who are so involved with their careers, that they become absolutely rigid and inflexible, when it comes to a relationship. These people, nurturing hefty professional ambitions, have in common a series of qualities which make them so needed at work: they are always ready for competition, they have leadership qualities, but they can also follow rules and regulations. They live an exciting life and since they don’t have to compromise too much at work, they feel unable to negotiate things in a relation.

The way to make a love story work between two professionals is, without a doubt, practicing RESPECT! We finally live in a world where both men and women are equal, so we should all respect the other’s professional aspirations and share the responsibilities demanded by the household.

When you get involved with a professionally oriented person, try to understand that the job that person has is more than a regular one. It often involves working extra hours, bringing home work related materials that need to be read, traveling and participating in all sorts of events.

The greatest problem this kind of couples has to confront with is lack of time. That is why they have to keep in mind to try to make any second spent together a memorable one. Another key element is teamwork: all the responsibilities around the house must be shared, but also, each must be ready to solve something the other can’t do.

Here is some advice, regarding the rules that make a relationship work:

Try to learn and to be the best when it comes to organizing and scheduling the things you need to do.

At least once a week or once every two weeks plan a night out. It will help you remember that life is more than work and household responsibilities.

Although you have very little time to do the things you want, keep in mind to dedicate some of it only to yourself.

When you feel you can’t keep up with everything: taking care of the children, cooking, doing great at work, mowing the lawn, etc. Ask for help: turn to your parents, hire somebody a few hours a week, at least from time to time.

Keep in mind that communication is essential. Take advantage of every second you guys are together, in order to remind your partner how much she or he means to you.

Try to get rid of stress in any other place than home: instead of arguing with everybody, go to the gym!

Marriage is more than just a union between a man and a woman. It is a union of lives, of love, of quirks, of peeves, of eccentricities, of dreams, and of ways. Marriage is all about making these enjoinments work. Marriage is all about understanding.

Find the strength to BE yourself

Wednesday, May 18th, 2005

It occurred to you more than once to meet someone and before becomign acquainted with them, to realize that you simply didn’t like him or her, no matter how hard you tried. There are a lot of old beliefs, which say that somone we simply can’t stand, mirror, in fact, a bad or weak point of our own self or personality, which we totally reject.

In other words, if you dislike about yourself the fact that you are frightened to speak in public and you are trying to change that, you will probably hate 9or even despise people who have a simialr problem to yours. However, once you solve this problem, your feelings about this person, might turn into compassion for the subject and you may find yourself wanting to help them instead of hating them.

Always keep in mind that, in order to love yourself, you have to create and maintain a perfect alignment between your inner and outer world, meaning between your soul and your body, between your thoughts and actions, between yourself alone and yourself in the company of others. Who are you in a great question to ask yourself regularly.

We all agree that our inner self, our souls, reflect greatly on what we do in the outside world, which is why experts strongly encourage you to meditate on how to achieve harmony within yourself. Here are also some things to remember and attepmt to practice:

Try to forgive more, because no one is perfect and everybody makes mistakes at some time or another. Accept the errors that people around you commit, but don’t forget about your own mistakes. Remember that it takes a very strong person to have the power to admit having done something condemnable and even if, at the beginning, the others might blame you, be sure that, after a while, they will appreciate your honesty. Honesty is definitely the best policy.

Get more attached to the persons around you and say a strong no to the isolation. Scientists confirm that human beings are happier and feel more accomplished with themselves when living in society, surrounded by other. So, you shouldn’t be frightened to make more friends. If you are wondering how you can do that, we recommend you start by listening more to other people’s problems, stop being egocentric and offer your help, whenever you’re given the opportunity. The feeling of being useful to the others, will result into a feeling of quiet and peacefulness with your own person.

Although everyday life gives you plenty of reasons to be angry and affected by stress, keep in mind that defeating these feelings will make stronger and thinking in a positive manner, by trying to discover the good aspects in any less desirable situation, will get you through problems.

As the human being should be, as we stated before, a perfect harmony between our souls and our bodies, don’t forget to take care of you physical appearance, as well. I you are not satisfied with the way you look, do not hesitate to do something about it. If your problem cannot be solved by any possible means, then you must start to love yourself exactly as you are. As soon as you do that, by finding the peacefulness and the joy of being alive, you’ll discover the same kind of feelings also in the eyes of the ones surrounding you.

In conclusion: Experts tell us to never be afraid to ask for guidance and support whenever needed, because by doing that you do something for yourself, you let the others teach you how to improve yourself, which will always result in making you feel accomplished and most importantly comfortable within your own heart and soul.

Parental Relationships and how to improve them

Sunday, May 15th, 2005

It is true that they give us birth and they raise us, but after a while, who hasn’t gone through a period when they felt their parents kept messing up things? Even though your thirty you mom still calls to see what you’ve eaten, to tell you it’s cold outside and you should put an extra coat or to remind you to close all the windows before going on vacation.

Some parents definitely find it difficult to let go, especially mothers. Cutting the apron strings isn’t easy either from the perspective of the children of parents who cannot let go with love.

Little by little, all the extra care they show towards us gets to annoy us tremendously. At the beginning, we try to keep it to ourselves, so that we don’t bother anybody, then, we try to avoid visits and telephone calls, just to make sure we won’t start a scandal. Nevertheless, the more we try to stay away from any uncomfortable talks, the pushier our parents get.

The question arising is how to find equilibrium? How to escape the daily phone calls, which provide you with unnecessary advice, without making your parents feel bad, rejected or misunderstood.

Depending, obviously, on the parents, there are a few strategies that you can try. For example, if you know your mother is going to call you at 8 am sharp, in order to tell you what the weather is like outside and what you should wear that day, ring her up five minutes earlier than she would normally call. Act natural, like you didn’t plan in detail the call. Ask her how she slept, how the dog is and inform her on the weather. Tell her you just watched the weather forecast ten minutes ago and she should definitely wear warm clothes, in case she goes shopping. First, she’ll have the impression she forgot to call at the regular hour and inform you about the weather, but then she will start thinking that you follow her advice and you check the forecast before leaving for work.

We always have to remember that, although we grew up, our parents keep on seeing in us children in need to receive help and advice. That is why, they constantly try to be present in our lives and protect us, in the way they consider best.

But, in spite of all the good intentions, an over caring parent can be a problem to anybody. So what do we do when the only hobby our parents have, is to go on taking care of the poor 30 years old child, meaning your own person? If no method, like proving we are capable of handling things by our own, works, than you definitely have to start finding another hobby for your parents. It might take a while, but you can’t give up! Keep our mind open and think about options like: getting them another pet; subscribe them to dancing club which organizes daily meetings – this way they’ll be busy, healthy and also tired and they might give you a break; call their friends and invite them to pay them visits more often etc.

You’ll see that reaching the purpose is much easier than you expect, but be sure that, after a while, you will accept those phone calls, so don’t make the mistake to totally break the relations with your parents!
