Do you like change? How do you feel about the changes? Changes can be gradual, from climate change to aging, and changes in the surrounding environment. Change is always there. We may be too familiar with our surroundings to notice changes. The public even ignores warnings from professionals until disaster strikes. As we all know, humans have a history of 5,000 years. History tells us to avoid repeating the same mistakes. Because our ancestors have established systems that work well and have always worked. More precisely, they preserved the basic rules and created the foundation.

As information consumers, we have a role to play in embracing a more nuanced point of view. When we read books, listen to music, or watch videos, we learn to recognize complexity as a signal of credibility. We can favor content and sources that present many sides of an issue rather than just one or two. Psychologists find that people will ignore or even deny the existence of a problem if they're not fond of the solution.

Do you dare to express your opinion in public? Do you think it's immature to express your feelings to others? How do you react when you're the odd one out? Can you accept different opinions but still stick to your goals? What would you do if you were the only one who thought differently than everyone else? A friend of mine has been in this situation before. She felt uncomfortable when her behavior was always questioned. She even felt lonely and fell into the abyss of depression for a long time. She became sensitive and easily nervous. She even stayed away from people for long periods.

Have you ever served different scales of companies including traditional trading companies, small-sized startups, and international suppliers? They have their own ways of doing business. A salesperson not only represents a company but also accumulates a good reputation for its company. Salespersons are on the frontline but aren't soldiers. Sales do things depending on the situation. They aren't soldiers who act without thinking. A salesperson is like a strategist. How to win the game efficiently and effectively is a big question.

As we grow up, it's not easy to learn new things, or pay more attention to the small things, and our surroundings, and we become cautious. It's easy to lose the patience to get to know others and delve deeply into the same field. When it comes to an unfamiliar field, overcoming it isn't easy.

As we all know, conflict is inevitable when dealing with other people. Everyone is unique and grows up in a different context. How to persuade others, or create a win-win event, just like performing a stand-up show. A good debate is not a war. This is not a tug of war. This is more of an unchoreographed dance, with no different steps agreed upon with a partner. If you try too hard to lead, your partner will resist. If you adjust your movements to hers and let her do the same, you'll be more likely to keep up.

Can you endure dead air when there are gaps in conversation? A hesitation or pause is often seen as unbearably awkward and something to actively avoid. These tiny habits actually have cultural differences. According to the research, doctor-patient interactions in Japan contain more silent than in America. A similar comfort with silence exists in Nordic countries. Finns place greater value on listening, modesty and privacy than Americans and many Western Europeans. In the book, the author indicated the pause on the order of seconds. If there is a long pause during a conversation.

We do not have very good hearing, although humans are the most intelligent creatures in the world. Animals have better hearing than humans. Animals are so sensitive that they can even hear climate changes and natural phenomena. However, humans are particularly good at distinguishing and categorizing sounds and, perhaps most importantly, attributing meaning to what we hear.

Feeling nervous? Take a travel pill! Do you like traveling? Do you know that travel can be great medicine when you’re sick or struggling? There is an old saying about the mind-body theory. People get sick when they are in a negative state. Human beings have their magnetic field, which changes according to their moods. Without a good mood, there is no healthy body. So, if you're feeling uneasy, drop what you're doing and go on your little trip.

I always believe that the end is a new start. Without closure, you won’t force yourself to move forward. No matter how difficult and painful the process was, it was over. Experience allows us to hone our minds and become more independent before taking on greater challenges. Too many stories come to an abrupt end without a cherished goodbye or a happy ending.  There is no need to be sensitive or sentimental. Patience, persistence, and perseverance are key points when it comes to success.
