Skills that are rarely taught but are extremely useful!

in #life6 years ago

1. How to cope with grief

 Going along with that it would be nice if other people could be taught how to properly deal with a person who is grieving.It would be nice if people knew that there isn’t a time limit for grief. Don’t tell a grieving person that it’s been x month or x years and they should get over it. It doesn’t work like that. 


2.  How to take criticism 

 My god I wouldn't be who I am today if my mentor didn`t do this.I do fuck ups he then comes to me later and explain how i fucked up.All this while never making me feel like shit for once. 

3. How to calm down:

 Anger management in general.  People do get dangerously angry... That was my toughest one to get control of in my teenage years..But I'm speaking more of a general inner calmness.. free from constant unconscious attacks of anxiety, jealousy, stress, irrational fears, sadness, etc. 

4. Managing relationships

 Judging from the decades-long high divorce rates, I think it's safe to say parents haven't done a good job at teaching this for several generations.

5. Day planning 

 You may not be able to build your dream day, but if you plan your day to be productive, manageable and fun? Well then you’re going to be much better off. 

6. Asking for help

 If you need it, it’s not weakness. It’s confidence and attempting to control your situation, which shows you’re not willingly going to let something beat you. Never be ashamed of seeking help.This goes for all kinds of things like drugs, depression, or debt management down to small stuff like learning how to parallel park. If you don’t know, or need assistance, ask!

nice, upvoted

sorry to say but sir you are not correct at some places...
Relationship breaks or joins doesn't bring parents in between... It totally depends upon the couple.

Don't believe, don't be afraid, don't ask

I do not know why you've been blacklisted, but this post is what more people need to see. We are quickly forgetting what it means to be decent and empathy is at an all-time low.

Did you know that empathy is not a quality we naturally have, like compassion? It is something we need to be taught, usually by example - and with both parents working, it is rarely kids are learning it.

I might get hung for saying this but...what may be saving us are the cartoons and movies for little children where the characters teach empathy. Animes by Ghilbi studios are great at this - if you have not seen it, check 'Grave of Fireflies'.

Empathy has nothing to do with Political Correctness - PC only demands, never offers, and is only a tool for communism.

I am blacklisted because I posted the same content on my Reddit account and then on steemit. This bot has flagged me because of plagiarism. Now, I am posting only on steemit and I am not finding any way to get myself out of that blacklist!

They do not offer a way for you to contact them and explain why they are wrong.

Someone who is very knowledgeable about this side of steemit, is @patrice. Contact her and show her what happened and ask for her help - she just might be able to.

I am coming across a number of good posters who have the same message on their posts and you were the first to bother to reply. I hope she can either help or guide to to the right place for help.

PSS: I found this link which might help:

Thanks a lot. I will try to contact :)

I agree with each and everything you said. I conveyed the same message but you used better words :)
