  Work belongs to one of the most important preconditions for individual self-fulfillment in the people’s life. Our occupation and career are inextricably linked to our self-awareness as a significant member of society. The psychologists affirm that this significance is the core need for people to feel full-fledged and happy.  Indeed, how many times a life we ask ourselves “who we are?” and “what is our social value?” Not once, is not it? Moreover, day by day we make tremendous efforts to get an incredibly satisfactory answer to them one day in future. One can say that it is the only right way to live a decent life and it sounds a rather convincing.  However, there are other questions we should answer honestly “do we have a life beyond our office?” and “how much time do we spend with our families?” We can bet that you would not be able to remark the border between these two spheres of your life and when you succeed in this the answer will unlikely be in favor of family. It was not beca

 WHAT IS INDECENT DRESSING?

  The relationships that we have in our lives help to form who we are as a person; who we surround ourselves with speaks mountains about us, and  to  us. Our friends represent who we wish to become, who we identify with, and who we care about. It's very common, though, for us to get involved in friendships that are not beneficial or perhaps even healthy for us. Some people will call themselves your friend, but they can be detrimental to you. When you find the right friends, however, the tried and true friends, it just feels  right . They are there for you to lean on and vice versa. True, supportive friends become family. These friendships just feel right and take very little effort to uphold. What Are Characteristics Of A Supportive Friend? Usually, the most supportive friends are those that start in the casual friend category, and over time grows and deepens. A supportive friend is someone who understands who you are and what you need. You will quickly learn that they will be with

  Four usages of Luck 1. Luck as superstition This is typified by the belief that future good or bad luck can be influenced by such things as: actions that one might do deliberately (blowing out all the candles of a birthday cake) or  accidentally  (breaking a mirror) or that happen near you (black cat) or even by abstract associations (the number 13); or possession of talismanic objects. Here I have used American examples but all cultures have their own superstitions. What makes such beliefs be superstition, of course, is that one can't point to any causal connection. I mentioned "future events", but believing that past bad luck was caused by a hex would be another superstition. 2. Retrospective luck A short definition of (good) luck is when the outcome of a chance event is favorable to the individual under consideration. Most of us, looking at our individual past experiences, would find instances where we consider we were lucky or unlucky, and this is what I mean by &qu

Increasing your awareness levels means that you are consciously paying attention to what is going on around you most of the time.

  A “forced friendship” is basically where you act like you are friends with someone who does not put any effort into acting likewise. It tends to happen when you really really want to be friends with someone but they are indifferent or hostile to the notion of being friends with you. You don’t do it by just recognizing when someone does not want to be your friend and moving on. 4 Signs You're Forcing the Friendship Don’t force what’s not meant to be. Most of us like getting to know different people and some might even want to be accepted by all. There comes a point where sometimes it seems forced.

  Personal space in a relationship means you're taking time to put yourself first and do things that are just for you—choices that will make you feel great about yourself, putting you in a better mindset to take care of your relationship. The trick is to get the balance right. If your partner says they need space in your relationship, something has gone a little wrong either with the partnership or just in their own life. So, whether you’ve been together for two months or 20 years, you need to take it seriously. The good news is that it’s an easy enough problem to fix as long as you can balance giving them space with making sure that you don’t drift apart. If you do it right, you may find that having a little distance makes you feel more grateful for each other and, ultimately, brings you closer together. Why Do They Need Space? The first thing to do is talk to your partner about why they need space. Even if you feel defensive or strange about it, remember that it’s a totally norma

  Personality traits reflect people’s characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Personality traits imply consistency and stability—someone who scores high on a specific trait like Extraversion is expected to be sociable in different situations and over time. Thus, trait psychology rests on the idea that people differ from one another in terms of where they stand on a set of basic trait dimensions that persist over time and across situations. The most widely used system of traits is called the Five-Factor Model. This system includes five broad traits that can be remembered with the acronym OCEAN: Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism. Each of the major traits from the Big Five can be divided into facets to give a more fine-grained analysis of someone's personality. In addition, some trait theorists argue that there are other traits that cannot be completely captured by the Five-Factor Model. Critics of the trait concept argue t
