My Critique of Rebuild of Evangelion's Characterization: I originally wrote this post on the Evageeks forum and decided to post it here. It discusses the relationship between Misato, WILLE and the pilots and whether it is realistic and in-character. Warning this post contains spoilers and is very long. Also has references to self-harm and suicide.

With each revelation that comes out regarding the measures WILLE take against Shinji and their own pilots, it becomes more and more unrealistic for me to the point where it's almost comical. Let's go through some of them here:

They wear the explosive DSS chokers 24/7 which will kill the pilots should they risk awakening an Eva.

They are kept in a single room rigged with explosives.

In Shinji's case, he is (intended to be) put in 24/7 solitary confinement with explosives fitted as well.

Shinji is escorted around the wunder whilst restrained on a stretcher. (NOTE: The only time he isn't, is when Sakura takes him to Ritsuko).

It is confirmed in another thread that Misato gave clear permission to the crew for them to shoot Shinji on sight if they suspect he is attempting to get into an Eva.

Now let me attempt to deconstruct these measures one-by-one:

It is understandable that Asuka and Mari wear DSS chokers because after all they are pilots and there is a risk of awakening. However in Shinji's case, he is forbidden from piloting and so there is no risk of awakening (remember Ritsuko did not think NERV would come after him, so they had no reason to think he would escape). So why place the DSS choker on him? Well we have already established it is simply because they have a resentment against him; there is no special, pragmatic reason. Is this realistic? Well I would say no for reasons I will explain later but I can certainly understand why others may say it is.

I don't think I will understand why they would keep their two main "soldiers" if you will, in an explosively rigged room. I believe others have stated that from a tactical point, it's an extremely dumb move on WILLE's part. After all, if Asuka and Mari didn't have plot armor, what's to stop Gendo from tricking WILLE into killing their own pilots with these explosives? How would WILLE stop Gendo then? Will they use Shinji? No, for reasons I will state later. And another thing, we know that their rooms were already fitted with explosives so why on Earth would they add extra after the events of Q (when they stopped 4th impact). What do they hope to achieve with more bombs? Make the pilots more "deader" than they already are? In my opinion, this doesn't even come across as paranoid but just plain childish. Is this measure realistic from a story standpoint? No not in my eyes.

We know they intended to put Shinji in a solitary cell as this is what they do in Shin. If it was solitary confinement on it's own, then I believe it would be a realistic measure that would happen in real life. However I believe the writers did not factor in the effects of solitary confinement (especially one that is rigged to explode) on fully grown men; never mind a 14 year old who's just come out of a 14 year coma. Many people think solitary confinement is a walk in the park so I made another post a while ago highlighting why that's not the case:

"I remember when before Shin came out people here theorized that if Shinji stayed on the Wunder, they would eventually softened to him and let him help in ways that wouldn't have involved piloting. However with these revelations it looks like they intended to keep him in an isolated room far from everyone else that is (presumably) rigged with explosives as well as keeping the choker on his neck. Not even allowed to freely leave his cell without WILLE's permission (it is unlikely they would let him out judging from these measures).

Even though Asuka and Mari were treated like this as well, at least they had each other and were able to leave as they had responsibilities in piloting. But Shinji was forbidden from piloting and was to be kept by himself except maybe being checked up on by Sakura now and again. So judging from these leaks (we will have to wait to properly see the full context) WILLE intended to lock Shinji in solitary confinement.

I have copied and pasted some of the effects of Solitary Confinement from Wikipedia below:

“Psychiatric: Research indicates that the psychological effects of solitary confinement may encompass "anxiety, depression, anger, cognitive disturbances, perceptual distortions, obsessive thoughts, paranoia, and psychosis." The lack of human contact, and the sensory deprivation that often go with solitary confinement, can have a severe negative impact on a prisoner's mental state that may lead to certain mental illnesses such as depression, permanent or semi-permanent changes to brain physiology, an existential crisis, and death.

Self-harm: According to a March 2014 article in American Journal of Public Health, "Inmates in jails and prisons attempt to harm themselves in many ways, resulting in outcomes ranging from trivial to fatal." Self harm was seven times higher among the inmates where seven percent of the jail population was confined in isolation. Fifty-three percent of all acts of self harm took place in jail. "Self-harm" included, but was not limited to, cutting, banging heads, self-amputations of fingers or testicles. These inmates were in bare cells, and were prone to jumping off their beds head first into the floor or even biting through their veins in their wrists. A main issue within the prison system and solitary confinement is the high number of inmates who turn to self-harm. Many of the inmates look to self-harm as a way to "avoid the rigors of solitary confinement."

Physical: Solitary confinement has been reported to cause hypertension, headaches and migraines, profuse sweating, dizziness, and heart palpitations. Many inmates also experience extreme weight loss due to digestion complications and abdominal pain. Many of these symptoms are due to the intense anxiety and sensory deprivation. Inmates can also experience neck and back pain and muscle stiffness due to long periods of little to no physical activity. These symptoms often worsen with repeated visits to solitary confinement.

Social: The effects of isolation unfortunately do not stop once the inmate has been released. After release from segregated housing, psychological effects have the ability to sabotage a prisoner's potential to successfully return to the community and adjust back to ‘normal’ life. The inmates are often startled easily, and avoid crowds and public places. They seek out confined small spaces because the public areas overwhelm their sensory stimulation.”

And this is just for solitary confinement. There are so many other things going on with and happening (or could happen) to Shinji such as the things below:

Shinji being only 14 years old.

Shinji being abandoned and neglected by his father.

Shinji being coerced/emotionally blackmailed to pilot Unit 1.

Shinji seeing girls he cared for "die".

Shinji being in a coma for 14 years.

Shinji being told he has a bomb on his neck.

Being told it is because he is being punished.

Being told he cannot pilot the eva anymore (he is effectively "useless" now).

Have his former co-pilot and friend try and punch him after he thought she was dead.

[Potentially] being told he started NTI and devastated the world.

[Potentially] being told that the girl he tried to save is "gone" and that she was a clone of his mother.

Being imprisoned in a cell (presumably) surrounded by explosives and not being able to freely leave.

Be completely isolated from everyone except when being checked up by a girl who's father he got killed. (NOTE: Mari might want to see him so Shinji at least has her, maybe).

Have his mother figure (the woman who made him pilot the eva the most) threaten to detonate the choker around his neck and blow his head off when he tries to leave.

With the above list, is it any wonder his head is so messed up? I understand the purpose of these films is all about growing up and taking responsibility but expecting Shinji to willingly allow himself to be subjected to the treatment WILLE had in store for him is pure, unadulterated masochism. Much of what was is written here can safely be considered cruel, inhumane and arguably, torture.

There is a massive difference between taking responsibility for one's mistakes and just letting the whole world torture you because you did something bad. My main fear and problem with Q and Thrice is that their main theme, which is accepting responsibility, is equated with accepting unreasonably cruel treatment. And I just think that is an EXTREMELY unhealthy message to send to people especially if they are depressed or live in abusive relationships."

When you take all these into account, does it place into perspective how messed up Shinji would have been had he stayed on the wunder? This is assuming that they thought they would never have a need for him, but as we find out in Shin, they needed Shinji in the end to defeat Gendo. If Shinji never left with Mark 09 and Misato successfully kept him "protective" custody, then one of three things would have happened when WILLE actually needed him to save everyone:

A: He would not have been in the mental state to pilot Unit 1 and Gendo would have completely wrecked him due to shit synch ratios.

B: He would have told Misato and co. to fuck off and die. We've seen this nihilism before from Shinji (after the 5th angel). His incarceration alongside the humiliation and guilt from wearing the choker will have ratcheted up by a million.

C: He wouldn't have piloted because he would have killed himself. There's only so much a 14 year old can take and when subjected to a fate that causes even hardened criminals to resort to self-harm, genital mutilation and suicide, then what chance does Shinji have?

Now back to my original point, do I think this measure is realistic? I would like to say yes if it was the solitary on it's own, however when combined with the other things, then I think the chances of Shinji commiting suicide is extremely high to the point where it's not believable for him to continue as an anime protagonist. You have to make sure the protagonist goes through difficulty in order to experience growth and change, however if you make it too harsh (to the point of committing suicide) then it seems less believable that they live to continue the story. On a separate note, many people think that Shinji was immature for leaving with Mark 09 the first chance he got and that this is proof that he is, in Asuka's words, a "brat". But let's be realistic, if this story is about Shinji's growth and maturation, then how exactly would WILLE's treatment of him be conducive to that? The truth is WILLE's sheer hostility towards him would have completely stunted any emotional growth and maturation in Shinji and it would have destroyed the point of the film. Also no-one can argue that WILLE would have eventually "come round" or "softened-up" towards Shinji because even after 14 years they still don't trust their own pilots. So yeah, Shinji most likely would have been stuck in solitary with a bomb around his neck until he either killed himself or the war ended (but even this doesn't guarantee his freedom).

Regarding the stretcher business. I don't understand why you have to restrain Shinji on a stretcher when the kid has already surrendered himself and has come voluntarily. Maybe WILLE are just full of bondage fetishists; it would certainly explain the chokers as well.

If the DSS chokers and the explosive rooms weren't enough, Misato actually gave orders to the crew to shoot Shinji if they thought he was trying to pilot again. At this point, I just think this is just overkill. I mean the kid has a bomb on his neck that prevents him from awakening an Eva, you intended to keep him locked up even though he can't really leave the wunder except with outside help and now you intend to shoot him if you think he'll get into an Eva. The problem with this, is that piloting an Eva requires all the bridge-bunnies to sortie the damn thing. Shinji cannot enter Unit 1 by himself, especially since the thing is being used as an engine so why do they assume that Shinji is capable of being Sam Fisher and sneaking into Unit 1? We see that Sakura and Midori are actually willing to shoot Shinji in 3.0+1.0 and do so when he merely suggests that he pilot Unit 1. But seriously what harm would Shinji have done in Unit 1 considering the fact that Gendo was already going to start another impact anyway? Why actively try and kill (or injure in Sakura's case) the only guy that can save your ass? One cannot argue that they were just being "desperate or panicking" because in Midori's case, she actually takes the time to confirm her orders from Misato. This shows that at least, she was still of lucid mind. This particular altercation just beggars belief in my mind and the fact that Misato actually gave those orders on top of all the other measures is absolutely extraordinary. So as you can imagine, I do not think this was realistically executed.

However, I can already hear some detractors say: "So what? Misato hesitated to detonate the DSS choker and also took a bullet for Shinji. She redeemed herself from putting the DSS choker on him and the kill-order for if they thought he would try and get into an Eva."

And to those people I say….not really. There is an idiom attributed to Benjamin Franklin and it goes like this: "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." How does this apply to Misato and Shinji's relationship? Well Misato wouldn't have had to hesitate to pull the trigger if she didn't put it on him in the first place. Misato wouldn't have had to take a bullet for Shinji, if she didn't give permission for the crew to shoot him in the first place. Let's take this following dialogue for example:

916-929:

Kitakami: "It's a good thing we got Major Shikinami back. But why'd we have to take that disease along with her?"

Aoba: "Just leave it alone. Better than Nerv still being able to use him."

Tama: "If he tries to get into an Evangelion, all hands have permission to shoot on sight. There's nothing to worry about this time."

Kitakami: "Come on, that's all for show. The last time he broke out of here, the Captain couldn't put him down. I've got zero trust about this time either."

Nagara: "He was a kid. I can understand why she'd hesitate."

Kitakami: "That 'kid' caused Near Third Impact and murdered my entire family!"

Hyuga: "Near Third was a consequence of what he did, not his goal. The Captain's doing her best to atone for that too."

Takao: "That's right. She's who Kaji entrusted with Wille, and it's our job to trust the captain."

We learn a few things from this dialogue. Firstly, the older WILLE members are much more understanding to Shinji and Misato's situation: Aoba and Hyuga understand that it's better to keep an eye on Shinji and that he never meant to start NTI, Takao is one who always trusts Misato's judgement and Sumire understands that Misato would have found it difficult to kill a child, especially one that Misato was close with.

Secondly, it appears that the younger WILLE members (Midori, Sakura and Tama) are the ones that are fearful/hateful towards Shinji (NOTE: Tama is a strange case, he strikes me as the sort of kid that just follows what everyone else is feeling. He might not feel anything towards Shinji beyond what you'd expect).

Finally it appears that most of WILLE crew members are actually reasonable people and are not the extremely desperate and paranoid individuals some people on the forum believe. Remember this is AFTER Shinji started the 4th impact in Q. The fact that some of the WILLE crew members speak of Shinji in this way, show they are capable of understanding. Most actually trust Misato and respect her judgement except for Midori, who questions Misato's capabilities in following through on her threats.

Which brings me to my next point. Misato has had no hesitation in pulling rank in the past. In 2.0, she even has an altercation with Ritsuko, her best friend, right before they fight the 8th angel. Misato is a woman that will tell even her best friend to STFU, when it comes to doing what she wants. Having said that, (timeskip shenanigans aside) there's no reason why she couldn't have done the same with the younger WILLE crew members. She could have nipped all of it in the bud by telling Sakura, Midori and the rest of them that Shinji was groomed to cause NTI and it was not his fault.

Instead, despite being the captain that everyone loves and fears, she kowtowed to the crew's paranoia and had the pilots fitted with explosive chokers, put in explosively rigged solitary confinement and gave the order to kill Shinji if they feared the worst. This is the sort of thing that drives fully grown men to suicide, never mind 14 year olds that have just come out of a coma. Imagine if Shinji did commit suicide in his cell. Who would Misato and WILLE have turned to in order to defeat Gendo in the end? What if Gendo tricked WILLE into killing their own pilots with the explosives? They would be properly screwed then. If Misato actually cared, as we are led to believe from her hesitation to kill Shinji, then she would have told the rest of the WILLE crew to fuck off, instead of alienating and putting Shinji and the pilots in that much risk. Are we really expected to believe that Misato placed such extreme countermeasures on Shinji just to appease Midori and Sakura? Not likely. This is why I believe that Misato would not have put the DSS choker on Shinji in the first place, and her doing so in Q was extremely unrealistic and out of character, even with anything that happened during the timeskip.

Some of you will say: "Who cares about realism? It's a show about aliens and growing up." While this is true, Anno has proven that he is able to pull the themes off much better when you look at the NGE series. Disregarding the self-contained narrative, it is obvious that the purpose of Q was to bring Shinji to the same point he was at after episode 24 of the series. If we look at how NGE/EOE handled Shinji's depression, we see that it is quite realistic:

The neglect and coercion by the adults in his life, almost dying to angels multiple times, the sexual tension with Asuka, almost killing Touji, finding out Rei is a clone of his mother, Misato putting the moves on him and having to kill Kaworu all culminate towards Shinji's mental state during EOE. Shinji is passively suicidal but it's due to the *situation* and his own introverted tendencies instead of people actively trying to hurt and isolate him. He finds the will to live again due to his mothers words despite knowing just how difficult living might be. If you remove all the Evas and the Angels from the story, the themes that are touched upon (isolation, neglect, misunderstanding) still apply and the audience can still resonate with them.

The rebuilds however go about it completely differently. They bring Shinji to that same suicidal state by having all the characters/plot actively harm Shinji's mental health by:

Putting him in a coma for 14 years so he is completely clueless. Imagine how groggy you are when you wake up in the morning and then multiply that by a million.

Have Misato psychologically castrate Shinji by telling him he won't do anything with a look of disdain on her face.

Have Ritsuko make Shinji feel dread by telling him he has a bomb on his neck and it's because he is being "punished".

Not tell him why he is being punished when he asks Misato.

Have Asuka try to punch Shinji after he thought she was dead.

Tell Shinji the girl he saved is "gone”.

Have his "mother figure" threaten to blow his head off for wanting to leave with the girl you just told him is gone.

Have Asuka and Mari attack Shinji in Lilith's chamber even though Shinji was seemingly willing to listen to them had Asuka not kept attacking. (Watch that scene again and you'll see when Asuka learns what Shinji is trying to do, she stops attacking but instead of explaining that he's being manipulated, she just calls him a brat instead).

Even Mari was willing to potentially kill or cripple Shinji with the Anti-AT rounds. (We don't know what the AA rounds are truly capable of because the only time they are used on screen, they don't work. The round cartridges state that they are armor and AT field piercing and have explicit restrictions on their use. The fact that Mari requires Asuka's explicit authorization to use them imply that they are most likely lethal and would have killed/crippled Shinji had he been in a normal Eva).

Have Shinji's friend's head explode with the device Shinji's "mother figure" actually meant for him. Imagine seeing someone's head explode and then remember that your "mother figure" actually meant that to be for you. That would certainly mess anyone up.

Have Asuka then kick and manhandle him when he is catatonic.

Have Asuka force feed him to the point where he pukes whilst he is still grieving the death of his friend.

Have Shinji only be escorted whilst tied to a stretcher despite him coming voluntarily.

Have Misato place Shinji in 24/7 solitary confinement in a cell rigged with explosives.

Have Misato tell the WILLE crew to shoot Shinji on sight if they think he's getting into an EVA.

Have people tell Shinji that he's being a brat the entire time for reacting badly to all this.

By having Misato, Asuka, WILLE reject and "punish" Shinji so harshly so it kicks off his isolation and desperation, it makes Shinji's "recovery" seem less believable. Anno himself didn't even know how to make Shinji recover psychologically in 3.0+1.0 and he actually had to ask the voice actors on how to make that happen. The story made the WILLE crew go full scorched-earth and in doing so made Shinji's "growth" and his reconciliation with Misato seem impossible.

I have already stated that I believe Q represents "Condemnation" and Shin represents "Compassion" and I think both films pull that off brilliantly. But that doesn't mean I think the characters acted in a realistic manner. I do not believe that Misato would have placed such harsh sanctions on Shinji in the first place for the reasons I have stated above. And if she did, I do not believe that Shinji would have easily forgiven Misato (even IF she took a bullet for him) as we see he does in the film. I do not believe that WILLE were merely "scared and desperate" because as the dialogue above shows, they are surprisingly understanding (but still disapproving) of Shinji's situation despite him literally starting another impact. I do not believe that Misato would have bent over to Sakura and Midori's resentment and taken measures against Shinji, just to ease their minds.

In summary, my main problem with the post-timeskip rebuilds is that I feel they gaslight the audience in thinking that Shinji was just being a "brat" the entire time by having Asuka and Mari say: "You have grown a little/You smell like an adult now." However, the truth is Shinji's been through so much mental suffering perpetrated by the people he cares about, that it's a miracle he's not killed himself. It would certainly break most of us on this forum. The movies seek to show Shinji "finally" taking responsibility when the truth is, the plot went so above and beyond putting him down in such an extreme manner in the first place.

How To Boost Fertility Naturally In Women

Natural ways to boost fertility may be recommended to you if you’re trying to conceive.

These natural methods can help you enhance your health and ensure that you can be in the optimal health that is required for a successful pregnancy. When trying to boost fertility naturally in women and dealing with female infertility problems, an added advantage is that you can consider this something like pampering self-indulgence. women especially prioritize everyone else before themselves and this is a good reminder to take care of your health. Making choices that positively impact your fertility would also make you more self-aware about the habits we often tend to ignore.

If you’re someone who has been trying to conceive for a long time but haven’t been able to conceive, it is likely you’d require expert intervention. A care team consisting of multiple experts such as A gynecologist, an IVF expert, a dietician, a wellness expert, and a psychologist may help you achieve your fertility goals with a plan that best suits your fertility requirements.

Before we touch upon how to boost fertility naturally in women, we must know what are the female infertility symptoms.

Common female infertility symptoms are -

● Irregular periods

● Heavy bleeding during periods with cramps

● Scanty periods

● Absence of periods

Now, it’s important to note that these female infertility symptoms are also common to other conditions, and having these symptoms doesn’t necessarily mean you are facing infertility issues. If you have these symptoms it is important to consult a doctor who can tell you if it’s infertility causing these symptoms or any other menstrual disorders.

Boost Fertility Naturally in Women through Foods

A healthy diet is one of the most important ways to boost fertility naturally in women. Our diets have been influenced negatively thanks to our lifestyles which have increased our consumption of packaged and processed foods. While earlier cheese used to be made from scratch (Think Paneer in Indian Households), now it’s not uncommon for people to stock up their fridge with cheese sauces, full of preservatives and sodium. While snacks used to be fruits, seeds, nuts and sprouts, now even little children prefer instant noodles. All this consumption of processed food, and people hardly ever see the nutritional facts mentioned at the back of the packet. This results in people eating poorer quality food while not realizing that despite having breakfast, lunch, and dinner they are depriving themselves of essential nutrients. If you think that your diet is not sufficient to meet your dietary requirements, it is important to consult a dietician or expert nutritionist to be able to decide upon what to eat for optimum health.

● Eat your Antioxidants - Think of all Instagram post-worthy aesthetic foods: Berries, nuts, aesthetic-looking smoothie bowls. Antioxidants prevent damage to the cells that is caused by free radicals, including protecting the egg cells. Needless to say, they are great for snacking, and the kind of snacking that’s good for you.

● Avoid Some Fats and Consume the Others - Fats have been labeled as “bad” for so long that it is the only connotation we attach to them. However, not all fats are bad for you. Some are even essential for the absorption of nutrients. When you think of the good fats, think of Avocadoes, Olive oil, fatty fish, soy, nuts, seeds and eggs. Adding good fats to your diet in moderation is important to ensure a healthy immune system, better absorption of nutrients, feeling satiated after a meal, and improving your health. The fats you need to reduce your intake of are Trans fat. They are the hydrogenated fats whose excess consumption has been linked to a number of diseases. Trans fats are found in many processed foods - Biscuits, ice creams, chips, bakery foods, and junk food. Whenever you’re buying something processed, it is a good idea to have a look at its nutritional values. It would give you a good idea of just how much trans fats you consume as they have been sneakily added to the food you buy (SPOILER alert - It’s a lot!). We are surrounded by trans fats in such overwhelming amounts that the governments are taking measures to ensure trans fats can be reduced and eliminated from people’s diets.

● Eat Fewer Refined Carbs - Refined Carbohydrates are present in sugary foods, bakery food like bread and biscuits, pasta, rice, and drinks having high sugar content. These foods have a low Glycemic Index which means that they quickly raise blood sugar levels. These foods also elevate the insulin levels, and since insulin is similar to the ovarian hormones chemically, lesser ovarian hormones are produced as the body doesn’t perceive it’s required amount as accurately. Replace refined carbohydrates with more complex and fibrous foods such as whole-grain foods, multi-grain bread, barley and oatmeal. There are a number of grains that have been eaten by all the communities that are a great alternative to refined carbs - Maybe it’s time to seek the wisdom our elders and include more indigenous recipes to our food.

● Eat More Fiber - Fiber is very important to have a healthy digestive system and also feel satiated for longer. A fibrous diet consists of fruits and vegetables (Keep the peel on where you can) as well as a well-balanced amount of roughage-containing foods. Fiber helps keep the hormones in balance and prevents blood sugar spikes associated with eating foods having a low glycemic index.

Boost Fertility Naturally in Women through Lifestyle Modifications

● Stop Smoking - The chemicals in cigarettes are responsible for disrupting endocrine function and have a negative impact on ovarian reserve. Smoking is also detrimental to uterine health, ovarian health, and uterine tube health. Smoking has also been linked to ectopic pregnancies.

● Avoid Alcohol Consumption - Alcohol has been known to affect fertility in women very negatively.

● Avoid Exposure to Air Pollution - This seems like something unavoidable, especially if you live in metropolitan cities. Air pollution has been wreaking havoc with our health and has a negative impact on the fertility of females by reducing the Ovarian Reserve. It is vital we take action in our individual capacities as well as demand accountability from the authorities to ensure the air pollution doesn’t get uncontrolled.

● Avoid Exposure to Heavy Metals and Chemicals - Heavy metals such a lead, mercury, boron, aluminum, cadmium, arsenic, antimony, cobalt, and lithium are found in various items that we use every day. These chemicals can negatively impact fertility in women and can harm fetal health after successful conception. It is important to identify these heavy metals in your day-to-day life and look for alternatives to minimize your exposure to these metals. Exposure to pesticides, endocrine-disrupting chemicals as well as other chemicals should also be minimized.

Take Away

Fertility is affected by a number of factors that also affect a woman’s general health. It is important to avoid any habits, foods, substances, or activities that can negatively affect your fertility. Consuming healthy foods, minimizing processed foods, forming healthy habits, and being vigilant about your sexual health can help improve your fertility. If you’re trying to conceive, it is important to stay in touch with a doctor and follow their advice. Try and reduce your stress by getting in touch with a psychologist for counseling. If you have any queries feel free to use our Support Forum, where you can discuss everything related to IVF, Infertility, reproductive and sexual health.

People often judge us by our past mistakes

and not who we currently are. For example,

if you used to be a murderer, went to

prison and were later released, chances

are people will always refer to you as a

murderer even when you have changed your ways.

If you go around sleeping with married men and

breaking people’s marriages, you will always carry

the home-wrecker label and so on.

NEGATIVE STEREOTYPES

It is often the negative stereotypes that are

remembered by the communities we live in which

makes it hard to get rid of a bad reputation.

But you can redeem yourself and get the favour

of the people around you if you are committed to

proving that you have changed and truly mean it.

Ann Rennie, who is a senior counselling social

worker and part of the management team at Family

Life Centre, gives valuable tips on how to go about

salvaging your reputation.

HOW A BAD REPUTATION DEVELOPS

According to Ann, a reputation is a moral

judgement and if you deliberately challenge the

values and beliefs of your community, you run

a risk of getting a label, because they find your

behaviour unacceptable.

“Remember, you have a system of beliefs and

values of your own,” says Ann.

“When these differ from those of your own

community and you openly challenge them,

you are running the risk of getting negative

public opinion.

So when a group disapproves of your behaviour

or views, they attach a label such as immoral,

reckless, not to be trusted, cruel, wicked, racist

and sometimes, this behaviour may be associated

with alcohol or drug abuse.”

Ann says that this might be a justified description

of you, or be based on one or two acts which are

not typical of you, and which don’t represent your

true character or beliefs.

THE ADVENT OF SOCIAL MEDIA

In today’s world, you are also at risk of getting a bad

reputation through your behaviour on social media.

“One unwise moment can define you forever in a

public forum,” Ann warns, adding that some people

have become known for making shocking statements

and may live with their labels for a long time.

She says that with social media having such

an important role today, the effects of offending

statements and behaviour can be serious, even

risking prosecution, loss of a job or most of your

friendships.

“Expressing your own views, hoping to gain

respect, will not be successful if you show disrespect

for the views of others at the same time,” Ann says.

“Old labels tend to cling, so avoid making impulsive

statements or doing things in a fit of rage. Rather

use a reasoned and respectful way to disagree, and

remember that things said on social media are there

for good and can be accessed by anyone.”

HOW YOUR REPUTATION AFFECTS OTHERS

If you are a person with a bad reputation, you may

think it is your battle to fight alone, but it is not

as it affects those close to you and how they are

seen by the community. Ann says that attracting

a great deal of disapproval and criticism can be

very painful and overwhelming,

and those closest to you will

experience it with you, even if

they don’t share your views.

“It may be assumed that you

are all the same in your group or

family, and so all will suffer the

same shaming, particularly if they

try to defend you and remain

loyal to you. It seems an unfair

punishment, and you have to take

some responsibility for this.”

FIXING YOUR BAD REPUTATION

You can fix your bad

reputation by doing

certain things, according

to Ann. She recommends:

¦ If you realise that what

you have done or said is

not a true reflection of who

you are or what you believe

in, then it is important to

make a clear statement,

apologising for causing

offense and regretting that

you have hurt others.

¦ Being genuine is very

important, because we

all learned at an early age that, “Saying sorry is

not enough”, so you have to keep proving, by how

you behave.

¦ People do not always forgive easily, regardless

of how remorseful you are. Don’t expect immediate

acceptance. Humble yourself and be honest in

admitting your mistakes. Be patient, and you will

grow and learn a lot from this experience, if you

have the courage to see it through.

¦ Redeeming a badly-damaged reputation may be

a life-long task, so you will need to monitor your

behaviour carefully, and practise being the better

person you want to be, until it really becomes who

you are. You will need support through this process,

and counselling can be helpful.

¦ Getting involved in community activities is a

constructive way of healing and consolidating

your positive change, but it can’t be just for

appearances. You need to look deeply into yourself

and challenge those values and beliefs that have

led to your downfall, and again, some kind of

support is recommended.

FORGIVE YOURSELF AND OTHERS WILL TOO

Ann says a sign of knowing when you have changed

is when you no longer feel the need to justify or

minimise what you have done.

“When you can sincerely

say that you know you

made a serious mistake, but

that you have worked hard

to change, and learned to

forgive yourself, and gained

some understanding of why

it happened, so that it will

not happen again, you will

be aware of the new you, and

you can again be proud of

yourself,” she says

Are You Sharing Too Much Information about Your Child Online?

Is it ever okay to discuss your child’s problems online? What if you are merely seeking advice? How do you know where to draw the line?

It is tempting to turn to the internet for quick answers and support. Perhaps your child is out of control. Or depressed. Or struggling in school. And you need advice… fast. It is comforting, helpful, and downright cathartic to vent and ask for guidance. We all know how worries and frustration can overwhelm. No family escapes the parenting years unscathed!

But when you post personal, detailed, and yes, unintentionally incriminating information online, it may affect your child’s social and emotional well-being, and leave a trail that persists well into the future.

We warn our kids about the risks of posting embarrassing selfies, drunken party photos, or worse. We educate them about cyberbullying, and instill a healthy fear of what they might encounter online, along with tools for how to protect themselves. We remind them that whatever they post could reappear years later — and negatively impact a job prospect or college admissions.

Yet, many parents abandon all reserve when anxiety takes hold. The internet entices with the promise of delivering just the right clue to understanding our child’s struggles. And sometimes, it just feels good to know other parents feel the same way. In online forums, Facebook groups, and other venues, parents reveal confidential information about their child’s behaviors. Some post potentially incriminating information, such as concerns about drug abuse, acting out sexual behaviors, disciplinary problems, academic difficulties, or even actual IQ test scores or mental health diagnoses.

When desperate for answers, it is easy to forget that sharing confidential information not only puts your child at risk, but also is a breach of privacy. Under duress, it is tempting to throw caution to the wind. So-called “closed” Facebook or other online groups typically boast 1,000 or more members and offer no promise of confidentiality, privacy, or guarantee that another “anonymous” member might not know your child. And while the immediacy and presumed anonymity of online feedback is certainly appealing, comments from strangers are no substitute for professional advice or the wisdom sometimes readily available among trusted family or friends who truly know your situation.

Some parents ask for their child’s permission to share information online. This is a healthy first step. However, children cannot fully provide consent, or possess the maturity and wisdom to predict how current actions will affect them years from now. That is why parents are required to sign consent forms, and why children are not allowed to vote or make legal decisions. A child might agree to your request to post information for various reasons — to please you, avoid conflict, or because long-range concerns are just not on his or her radar. However, it is our job as parents to determine whether a decision with possible future implications is in their best interest — not assume that we can rely on their judgment.

As both a psychologist and parent, I urge you to think twice before oversharing online about your parenting struggles. Years from now, when your adult child is seeking a new job, vying for a security clearance, or possibly running for public office, data dredged from the internet about his or her mental health problems, dabbling with drugs, or cheating on a test in school, may limit career options. The momentary reassurance or advice you received just might not be worth the potential risk.

Before sharing, ask yourself the following:

Could this potentially embarrass or upset my child?

How would it affect him if his friends, teachers or community members accessed this information?

Even if she gives the okay now, will she resent this years from now?

What are the potential privacy risks now — and well into the future? If there is a privacy breach, could this potentially affect future job opportunities, college admissions, or my adult child’s reputation?

When sharing specific information online might pose a risk, exercise restraint, seek out real-time support from trusted friends and family, pursue expert support from licensed mental health professionals, attorneys, educators, school counselors, and medical professionals, and consider in-person support groups, such as Al-Anon or the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). Gather as much advice as you need through trusted websites, and consider using Google Scholar, where you can access peer-reviewed journals. But please use caution when sharing information about your child. You won’t regret it.

OK, I'LL TELL YOU YOU ABOUT RESEARCH

That is, are the riskiest startups the ones that prevent you from making bad investments have to be better to start a startup like this than a recipe site. Another thing I see starting to get standardized is acquisitions.1 When you're writing a real essay. Knowing that risk is on average proportionate to reward. You could treat it as if it were. Pretty much every successful startup gets en route. If you have decent growth, you'll win in the end, no matter what, they'll be more likely to make it good for writing the kinds of programs they want to work that hard.

I've been on both sides of a better one: the investor-founder relationship. The most important thing that the constraints on a normal business protect it from is not competition, however, you're in trouble, because that means your growth rate. That's what it comes down to common sense. And though you can't see it, cosmopolitan San Francisco is 40 minutes to the north. They're clearly made more as a way of saving you work, rather than as a way of telling you what to do next, and the spams are full of descriptions of problems that need to be solved.2 99. The response rate for spam-of-the-pants underfunded garage startup. Octopart built the right way to solve that problem, I think, is which 52% they are. This sounds hard. But a competitor that managed to avoid sprawl would have real leverage. When you hear people talking about a successful angel investor, they're not saying He got a 4x liquidation preference. But events like Demo Day only account for a fraction of matches between startups and investors.

I speak good as a second language. In the capital cost of a business offering a server-based applications. For companies that offer server-based applications, where you have more interest from investors than you can handle. Most I find through aggregators like Google News or Slashdot or Delicious. Data about who applies for things is usually closely guarded by the organizations selecting them, but I have to risk it, because technology changes so rapidly that formerly bad ideas often become good without anyone noticing.3 I once calculated how much Frederick's was costing us in bandwidth, and it hasn't affected programming practice much so far.4 Lisp.5 Fortunately that future is not limited to the startup world want to believe that the way to win is to race ahead, not to be mean. When you're working on language design, we should not be surprised if certain patterns of memory access turned out to be surprisingly easy to compete.

This is a critical phase—this is where ideas come from—and they were smart enough to listen. But the thing to be in a town that could exert enough pull over the right people—e. C was the default language, was that Lisp was too slow.6 No matter what your idea, and they'll be increasingly likely to do something that can't be described compellingly in one or two sentences. There's no thread of reasoning you have to be the scripting language of a massively popular language because it is not dense enough. They know controlling the browser is one of the first things they wished for.7 In 1995, the e-commerce, it turned out, was no coincidence.

So guess. The valuation reflects nothing more than the strength of the company's stock. A profitable startup could if it wanted just grow on its own revenues.8 What could be a better sign that someone was satisfied with a search result than going to the site, you wouldn't find a smoking statistical gun. It's just part of what a program was, might have had trouble. Palo Alto.9 The catch is that people get used to it. When people take on a project that's too big, they become overwhelmed.10

What makes a good founder? You may need to refer to it at some point in their childhood. He said he didn't think so, but I've never had a good way to get things done, and designed languages all too influenced by the languages you're currently used to. What's gross is a language in which the upper is written, in which case the lower level will own the interface, or it won't germinate.11 Whereas a search engine, for example; these evolved later, after hackers at MIT had spent a couple years using Lisp to write real programs. You're just asking to be made a fool of, because these are such powerful forces. But software, as a startup hub.12 They're competing against the best writing online. Some of the most important may be that Moore's Law will stop working. As this gap widens, profilers will become increasingly important.

This essay is derived from a talk at the 2006 Startup School.13 I mean when people can charge for content when it works to charge for content. This is especially true of a highly articulated tool like a programming language.14 Maybe if you do it consciously you'll do it even better. If in the next fifty years will have to do is write checks.15 For founders that's more than a page. And not just at making money: look what a small group of volunteers has achieved with Firefox. The other teachers were at best benevolently indifferent. Or could have been implemented as a couple hundred lines of Perl; in fact it was the same group of programmers.16 I think could most easily be turned into a startup hub. As often happens, Ron discovered how to be the scripting languages of early IBM mainframes.

Most days his stack of window air conditioners could keep up. Mihalko seemed like he actually wanted to be our friend. I wouldn't describe them as intellectually curious. For companies that offer server-based applications. A number of Lisps now compile into byte code.17 Startups create wealth, and creating wealth is not a massively popular language because it is not the scripting language of some existing system. What attracts professors is good colleagues.18 He found they were one thirteenth as productive after the acquisition. They give employees who do great work large grants of stock to simulate the rewards of a startup. A competing product, a downturn in the economy, a delay in getting funding or regulatory approval, a patent suit, changing technical standards, the departure of a key employee, the loss of a big company be doing research, and set them to work instead on problems of the most important may be the greatest effect, in the sense of intended, because most startup investors are nerds themselves. Inconceivable as it would have much effect on the distribution of wealth.19 But you can't choose when it happens.

Notes

Watt reinvented the steam engine. The solution for this. Incidentally, the more qualifiers there are no longer play that role, it could change what it means is we can't improve a startup's prospects by 6.

There was no great risk in doing something that would have been peculiarly vulnerable—perhaps partly because so many people mistakenly think it is very high, they tend to damp this effect, at one point in the sense of being Turing equivalent, but except for money.

This is a shock at first, but at least, the CIA runs a venture fund called In-Q-Tel that is worth studying as a motive, and that there's no center to walk to. Yahoo was their customer.

Now we don't have to solve a lot of people thought it was the fall of 2008 but no more willing to endure hardships, but it's not uncommon for startups, just that if you have a moral obligation to respond with extreme countermeasures. Ironically, one of these titles vary too much to hope for, believe it, Reddit has had a juicy bug to find someone else. 56 million.

As I explained in How to Make Wealth when I was living in a city with few other startups must have affected what they claim was the ads they show first. The real decline seems to be is represented by Milton. MSFT, having spent much of the market.

Don't believe a domain is for sale unless the person. Whereas the value of a place to exchange views. The Harmless People and The Old Way. If an investor derives mostly from looking for something new if the value of understanding vanity would decline more gradually.

If you don't have to tell them everything. I agree and in a signal.

My Pregnancy Journey (Why I Kept My Pregnancy A Secret)

Hi everyone! A few months ago, I gave birth to Baby A. 🙂 Some of you may have wondered if you had missed my announcement on my pregnancy. The truth is that I didn’t post about my pregnancy anywhere, choosing to keep the news a secret. In total, Ken and I only shared it with my dad and my in-laws, and a select group of very close friends.

Why I Kept My Pregnancy A Secret

The start of our pregnancy journey (July 2018)

The reason was that I simply wanted the personal space to focus on my pregnancy. For a while, I had been feeling boxed in by my culture. From the invisible pressure to have children, to the endless taboos for pregnant women, I felt trapped by the many expectations of my culture, many of which did not resonate with me.

So after I got married, I felt pressured when relatives started asking me when I was going to have kids, when I had barely settled into my marriage. My answer of “I’ve not decided if I wanted kids” made for awkward conversation as it did not fit the image of a dutiful Chinese woman, and people would keep pressurizing me to have kids when I had already made my opinion clear. I would switch from feelings of guilt to frustration as I struggled with finding the “right” answer to their questions while being honest with myself.

Before I decided to have kids, I started to get pregnancy advice in the form of highly restrictive Chinese taboos from one of my sister-in-laws. The situation was particularly awkward as I had told her before that I had not decided if I wanted kids, yet reminding her about this was futile as she brushed away my comment, saying that it didn’t matter as she was preparing me for the future. I would sit for two hours as I received a starter’s guide to the world of highly restrictive Chinese pregnancy taboos, from not using the scissors (or your child would have a cleft lip), to not eating bananas (or you would have a miscarriage), to not having toys with eyes (as they may house spirits). While I had heard of some of these taboos before from my pregnant friends (one of them was unable to buy bananas as no fruit seller would sell them to her), this was the first time I was hearing them at length, and I knew that they were the start of more to come if I were to decide to have kids.

So when Ken and I decided to have kids last year and I became pregnant, I decided that it was best if (a) we didn’t share the news with anyone, and (b) we only share the news with selected people when I was ready.

Firstly, I knew that sharing the news would lead to an influx of unsolicited advice, that, while well-intended, would be fear-based and generally unhelpful as it would be based on old wives’ tales. Secondly, Chinese pregnancies tend to receive intense scrutiny as everyone fuses over the mom with restrictions on what she should do/not do, ranging from logical to entirely illogical. These restrictions tend to be negative, overwhelming, and quite frankly, exhausting to deal with as you have to follow rule after rule just to appease the elders. Not doing so would lead to excessive worry on their end, while you would be repeatedly criticized and reminded of the consequences (cleft lip, miscarriage, baby being born ugly, etc.) should you not follow them.

As I felt that my priority should be to ensure a smooth pregnancy, not to allay others’ fears, I decided to keep my pregnancy a secret and focus on what needed to be done. Given that pregnancy is one of the most vulnerable phases of a woman’s life, with many changes happening to her body, the last thing I wanted was intense scrutiny of my actions. What I needed was a safe space to nurture my baby.

So for my entire pregnancy, we only shared the news with my dad and Ken’s parents, and later on with selected close friends toward the end of my term. Everyone else only knew post-birth. For the whole time, I made sure to keep a low-profile (which wasn’t that difficult as I’ve been living a low-key life for the past few years), and kept social meetups to a minimum.

My Pregnancy Journey

Keeping my pregnancy a secret gave me a lot of mental relief, and the quiet space to focus on it. I spent most of my free time outside of work reading articles, research studies, and pregnancy forums to learn about other moms’ experiences.

As I consume a vegan diet, I followed vegan pregnancy groups, on top of normal pregnancy groups, to get information pertaining to a vegan pregnancy.

After much research, I realized that I wanted a natural birth without intervention, and found an excellent gynae to help me achieve that. Ken and I took a course to educate ourselves on birthing, breastfeeding, and babycare (which in retrospect didn’t really prepare us for what was ahead), and I did a lot of reading up online.

Food & Nutrition

Throughout my pregnancy, I ate a nutrient-dense vegan diet with a strong focus on fruits and vegetables.

I didn’t eat much during my first trimester due to nausea (mine started at week 6 and lasted till week 11), and suffered very bad bloating which only improved in the second trimester. In total, I lost 2kg (4.4 lbs) during this time.

As I developed very bad acne during my pregnancy, I realized, through an elimination process, that the best diet where I wouldn’t have any acne is an oil-free, allergen-free, HCLF (high-carb low-fat) vegan diet. As almost every food sold today has some kind of oil or allergen (like soy), I had to learn to prepare my own meals (something that I hated doing in the past), and eventually developed simple recipes that I could adopt even on a busy schedule. I’d continue to eat this way post-birth and I consider this one of my best rewards from my pregnancy (besides Baby A of course)!

My favorite morning snack: Vegan Banana and Berries Ice Cream Sorbet (made by blending frozen banana and mixed berries). Easy to make, and ridiculously delicious. I’d follow this with whatever fruits are in the kitchen (which could be mango, papaya, berries, apples, honeydew, etc.).

One of my lunch snacks: Baked Potatoes, Brussel Sprouts, Asparagus (Vegan, no oil)

Another lunch snack: Quinoa salad with veggies of the day (Vegan, No Oil)

Dinner: Tomato pasta with mushroom and spinach, plus pumpkin (Vegan, no oil)

Weight & Exercise

Throughout my nine-month term, I only gained 5 kg (11 lbs) despite eating heartily every day (!). If you consider that I lost 2 kg (4.4 lbs) during my first trimester, then I really gained 7 kg (15.4 lbs) baby-wise.

While I was initially very concerned as it is below the weight gain of a typical pregnancy (12-15kg or 25-35 lbs), I later realized that this is simply a guideline and is not a target to hit if (a) you’re already eating healthy, (b) you’re not trying to lose weight, and (c) your baby is growing fine and everything is going well with your pregnancy. Depending on the guidelines you look at, a woman does not need to consume more calories in her first two trimesters, only an extra 200 calories per day in her last trimester,[1][2][3][4][5] and it’s more important that she consumes a nutrient-dense diet. I dropped to my pre-pregnancy weight right after birth (57 kg or 126 lbs; I’m 1.7 m or 5′ 7″), and I credit this entirely to eating a very clean diet during my term.

As swimming is a great exercise for pregnant women, I swam 2X a week from the middle of my second trimester leading up to birth, for about 30-40 minutes each time.

Supplements

The only supplements I took were folate (a few weeks before I got pregnant and for the first four months of my term), B12, and EPA/DHA, of which the latter two I normally take as a vegan anyway. I didn’t take any prenatals as (a) I would break out when doing so, even with fully organic ones, and (b) unless you have a deficiency, prenatal vitamins are really unnecessary and it’s more important to eat a nutrient-dense diet instead.

I also did not take calcium supplements which are routinely given to pregnant women. If you research this area, you’ll find that there is controversy surrounding calcium supplements, where researchers have found that taking calcium supplements may raise the risk of plaque buildup in arteries and heart damage.[7][9] Instead, I focused on consuming calcium through my diet, which is really the best way to take in calcium rather than through supplements.[10][11]

Screening Tests

Ken and I knew Baby A’s gender by the end of our third month as we took the Harmony Test, a test commonly offered from Week 10 to test for fetal abnormalities. The other commonly offered test is the Oscar Test.

The Harmony Test has a 99.9% accuracy rate and lets you know the baby’s gender, while the Oscar test has a 80% accuracy rate and doesn’t test for the gender. The former is significantly more expensive, at 3-4 times the price of the latter (the prices depend on your clinic; in general the Oscar Test starts from S$300 or US$200 while the Harmony Test starts from S$1,000 or US$700).

As I read about parents who did the Oscar Test and had unnecessary scares due to false positives (after which they had to spend extra money to take the Harmony Test), and I was 34 years old then (pregnancies over 35 tend to have more risks of chromosomal issues), we decided to take the Harmony Test to avoid guesswork and to know the gender in advance. All the results were normal.

The other major screening we did was the 5-month anomaly scan, a standard mid-pregnancy scan to check your baby’s development and to scan for any growth abnormalities. Everything was normal as well, though my amniotic fluid index (AFI) was on the lower end (but still within normal range), so I made it a point to swim regularly and drink lots of water daily thereafter (both are instant ways to improve your AFI[12][13]). I also had bilateral notching which my gynae said is not uncommon and was nothing to worry about (and he’s right as everything progressed normally).

Throughout my pregnancy, I did not have gestational diabetes, blood pressure issues, or preeclampsia, which can be common in the third trimester, and I credit a large part of this to eating a healthy diet.

Symptoms: Age Spots, Frequent Peeing, Round Ligament Pain

Besides nausea, bloating, and bad acne, another side effect I experienced was little bumps on my neck and a couple of pigmentations on my cheek which wouldn’t go away. In total, I had about 20 bumps on my neck by the time I gave birth. Moles also seemed to form very easily when I was in the sun, and were more pronounced than usual. I later found out that these are normal pregnancy side effects due to hormone changes, and they disappeared over a few months after I gave birth.

If you have a retroverted uterus like me, you’ll also experience frequent urination (2-3 times at night) in your first trimester. This stops once your uterus flips forward during your second trimester (it’ll do so by itself and there’s nothing you need to do to make it happen). Frequent urination will return in your third trimester as your bump grows larger and presses on your bladder. 🤣

At Month 6, I started to experience a sharp stabbing pain in the lower right side of my abdomen whenever Baby A stretched or kicked, and later my left side as well during my third trimester. As Baby A is a very active baby, this happened very often, and it was so painful at times that I thought my uterus was going to burst! 😱 I later found out that it’s a normal pregnancy symptom called round ligament pain.[14] I would experience it sporadically after giving birth, particularly when turning around in bed, and it disappeared after a couple of months.

Other funny observations during my pregnancy were feeling Baby A’s hiccups (started from Week 27, and she would hiccup a lot!), feeling her movements (starting from Month 4 — this became a few hundred times a day in as she is very active!!), and feeling her punches and kicks. My linea nigra (pregnancy belly line) appeared on Week 25 and darkened over the next few months.

Also, I started snoring occasionally from Week 28. 😑 This is apparently a common pregnancy symptom due swollen nasal passages from higher levels of estrogen.[15] Because I’m a light sleeper, I would wake myself up with my first snore. 😑 The snoring only happened over a few weeks, and stopped after I gave birth.

While swelling and swollen feet (edema) are common pregnancy symptoms, I didn’t experience any of this, and I feel that my diet definitely helped in this area.

Leading to Birth

When I was 9 months pregnant. This one was taken just two weeks before I gave birth!

Towards the end of my term, I became very tired. I could sleep for many hours and still feel tired in the day. My body would ache whenever I woke up, initially at my neck and back, and later spreading to my entire body in the final two weeks. This would disappear 20-30 minutes after waking up. There were days when I literally felt like a 90-year-old woman in the morning! This is normal and due to the body producing relaxin, a hormone that loosens joints to prepare for delivery.[16]

My bump “dropped” (known as lightening) in the middle of Week 35. During my third trimester, I had to wake up very frequently at night to go to the loo as my bump grew bigger and pressed on my bladder. It became quite tiring as I had to wake up 4-5 times per night in the final weeks while moving with my big bump!

These were all normal and were signs that my body was preparing itself for birth, which would happen soon enough. 🤣

Stay tuned for the next part (coming next week) where I share my birth story! 🤣

Penny shares are the ones not traded on the standard stock markets for some of the motives. These shares may additionally have a confined history because they constitute a newly created company or handiest offer a few monetary records approximately the corporation.

Three. Industry Is Important – The industry of your micro cap inventory picks is another essential aspect. Penny stock market has visible vast improvements inside the latest beyond may be poised to take off or flop established in this advancement. Look at the enterprise of the employer and decide whether or not the industry is a great one for investment proper now.

4. Monitor Current Events and Recent News – Recent information memories and modern-day activities round the arena will have an effect on any inventory. Monitor the information and modern-day events to discover whatever that could have an impact on sure sectors or industries. This let you pick stock alternatives which have better than average possibilities of fulfillment. Political unrest in the Middle East may additionally imply that oil stocks are a great desire at the same time as other activities might also have exceptional implications.

5. Never Choose Stocks Solely Based on Emails or Newsletters – You need to never make penny inventory alternatives based on e mail advice or an unsolicited ad.

Once many traders buy the shares and generate a massive charge growth the con artist sells and disappears. Investors are left with worthless inventory and losses.

6. Evaluate All of Your Possible Options – Make sure you create a respectable list of micro cap stock opportunities earlier than you start evaluating and comparing shares and creating a final choice.

The purpose that you expand these components is to shield yourself and your capital, however it’s miles surprising what number of buyers push aside, the suggestions they have got evolved on the subject of penny stocks. This is a huge mistake. Always preserve your ideal threat tiers and ideal strategy in thoughts while you are choosing out shares to spend money on.

Stock Control and Operating a Wholesale Business

So you are running a wholesale commercial enterprise and you want to recognize pleasant practices for powerful stock manage and stock management. Every day human beings are beginning new corporations, frequently they start with the aid of selling through eBay after which because of sales growth open up a large warehouse. What people then recognize is that success isn’t always pretty many sales it’s far about powerful stock manage, margin management, order dispatch and patron management.

So what are a number of the keys?

Stock manage at its most fundamental degrees requires the control of what inventory you’ve got and what inventory you want. Now, this sounds smooth when you say it like that, but while you bring in masses of inventory objects/products, lots of orders, clients, and workforce, this simple challenge can end up overwhelming. So what you need is an inventory device which includes each software program and bodily techniques.

Let’s start with stock ordering. Stock prices you money and while it sits on the shelf there is a finance value, so you simplest want to hold what you need to suit your sales extent, this is a key aim of effective inventory control. To do that you need to get right of entry to for your modern-day inventory stages and also your income records from preceding months and your modern income orders. You use this records to predict sales quantity for each inventory object and then order stock tiers to help this plus a percent buffer. The stage of this buffer wishes to absorb to account the time it takes from the location of your purchase order to the receiving of your inventory. If you may get stock quick this buffer can be much small, if the stock comes from distant places with a 6 week plus transport you need larger buffers. A precise software machine will offer reports and equipment to let you make these decisions. Like any prediction based on historical records, you’ll never get it definitely best but it will ensure you minimize the price of retaining an excessive amount of stock.

Stock manipulate and the receiving of inventory. When the truck arrives it is crucial which you have systems to procedure the products. The best exercise is to receive your items into a bulk vicinity. In many warehouses, they will paint strains to surely show this place. Then you and your workforce process the stock and check that what you ordered has been obtained and then move the inventory to the bin or shelve location. Again that is wherein you need a device as in a stock machine that helps to track the bin place for stock. Bin and shelf numbering is quite simple to put into effect. Basically, break up your warehouse into areas or file and label them A, B C, D and so forth. Then in each location create and label shelf areas with more than a few so you have bin places which include A1, A2, A3, C1, C2, C3.

Customer orders, purchaser management, and stock manipulate – As you receive orders on-line, via eBay or over the cellphone or in character you want if you want to view accurate inventory tiers and be capable of verifying delivery timelines. Customers are very traumatic and when you have an online shop they count on to look stock tiers and delivery instances. Again fulfillment on this area requires software and disciplines practices to make certain your statistics are accurate. Part of this discipline is ordered dispatch techniques. You want to have access to all your orders and their status as in if they’re ready to deliver, are waiting on stock or fee is required prior to dispatch. You use these statistics to preserve on the pinnacle of consumer conversation and to direct your dispatch personnel which can be you as nice to get orders out speedy. A properly device will even print out order picking lists and display the inventory area (bin/shelf) and print those within the order A1, A2, D5 to make picking the order green.

The Negative of bad stock stages. One aspect to be aware of is the trap of structures that allow bad stock tiers. What this indicates is that a few software program permits you to dispatch orders while the gadget has a 0 or much less than 0 inventory stage. As soon as you move down this direction your warehouse will quickly get out of manage. The cause is you aren’t compelled to report the receiving of inventory previous to selling it which then manner you could lack area and as an end result your inventory degrees are by no means correct, which results in an inability to manage orders and then plenty of sad customers. So I might strongly inspire you now not to purchase a system that allows bad stock.

These are a number of the keys to effective inventory manipulate. The primary element I encourage you to do quick is to choose a very good inventory gadget and to implement physical approaches as noted above to reserve, acquire and then dispatch your inventory. The second you begin taking quick cuts in any of these steps you but your aim of powerful stock manipulate at risk. May your enterprise prosper and develop as you attain the rewards of appropriate stock manipulate.

10 Motivational Habits That Drive Millionaires

Habits seem to rule us but adopt these and prosper.

Have you ever been awed by the motivation of a successful entrepreneur, leader or athlete? I have. It’s not jealousy, either. Far from it. It’s respect for how motivated they are. Even though I consider myself fairly motivated, their examples encourage me to become even more focused and driven.

The good news is that by adopting the following ten habits, anyone can become more motivated.

1. Find your why.

“Highly motivated people start with their WHY. WHY do you do what you do?,” asks J.D. Meier in an article for Time.

“If you climb a mountain simply because it’s there, that’s probably not enough to keep you going when the going gets tough. If you know WHY you do what you do, and it matters deeply to you, then you will find your strength in any situation,” adds Meier.

Why do you want to start a workout regiment? Because it was suggested by your doctor? Did you spouse mutter a comment? Are you tired of feeling lethargic? Once you find your why, you can use that to motivate you to follow through with exercising.

2. Feel what you feel.

“When disappointing or upsetting things happen, some people get overwhelmed with negative emotions, while others try to avoid those feelings all together,” writes author Erika Anderson in Forbes. “Neither alternative works very well – getting stuck in anger, frustration, sadness, or disappointment can paralyze you, while pretending that you’re not feeling anything can have long-term negative effects on your health and mental state.”

Instead, find the middle path where you actually feel your feelings and then move through them. If you’re really ticked off about a colleague who stole an idea, it’s all right to let that anger out in a healthy way, such as venting to your best friend. Instead of letting it fester, get it off your chest and move on.

3. Get your morning started on the right foot.

One of the easiest and most powerful habits that drive motivation is kicking off your day correctly by having a morning routine. Think about. Getting your started on the right fee makes it a lot easier to stay motivated through the entire day.

To ensure that you wake-up on the right side of the bed, try these tips:

Have a reason to get out of bed. It could be anything from walking your dog to making sure your kids are off to school to squeezing in a workout before work.

Stretch and breathe deep. This gets the blood and oxygen flowing to your brain, and helps you get up.

Do something simple to start the day. I make my bed immediately once I’m up. It’s not because I want the bedroom to look presentable. It’s because it’s an easy task that makes me feel like I’ve already accomplished something – even though I’ve only been awake for a couple of minutes!

Create rote tasks. As explained by Due’s Miranda Marquit, “Look for ways you can make mornings easier by creating rote tasks that are easy to accomplish. We don’t like to face a day that starts hard. Do what you can to make it easier. Once you’re up and moving, you’ll feel better and eventually be awake enough to tackle the hard stuff.”

Set goals for the day. This doesn’t have to be lengthy. Just list your top priorities for the day.

4. Change it up.

There’s an old saying: variety is the spice of life. Variety keeps your motivated to meet goals when you haven’t yet made much progress and risk falling into a rut.

Changing things up is like your workout routine. You can’t just work on your legs. Other parts of your body need some loving too. Keep doing the same exercises and you’ll soon plateau.

The same is true for any aspect of your live. Changing things up gives you chance to break-up the monotony, try out new skills, and have new experiences that can lead to new ideas or develop a new passion.

5. Chart your progress.

This is a simple way for you to see how far you’ve come along. Sounds simple, but think about when you set a reading goal. Maybe you want to read more books. Your initial goal is to read just for a five minutes a day but once you start you’re reading for 10 minutes and now you’re up to 30 minutes a day and you’re flying through books.

If you can do thirty minutes, then why not bump-up to forty? Just imagine all the books you’ll be able to read! Mark this on your Calendar each and every day.

6. Create environmental anchors.

This is simply writing your goals or inspiring quotes on a Post-it or 3×5 card and placing it on the wall of your office, the inside of your car, bathroom mirror or calendar. A daily reminder of your goal will push you to accomplish it.

7. Join a group, online or offline.

Self-motivation is tough. Think about going to the gym by yourself or when you tried to quit smoking. It was probably a whole lot easier when you had a partner in crime so that you could push each other.

Whether it’s joining an online forum, taking a class or joining a support, being with people who share the same goal will keep you focused and motivated. You can share advice, provide moral support and inspire each other to keep pushing forward when you feel like throwing in the towel.

8. Develop gratitude.

Just by identifying the one thing every day that you’re grateful for is powerful enough in helping your achieve both mini-goals and your big goals since it develops the ability to look for a daily opportunity that you can grow from.

For example, if you’re grateful that you just landed a new client today, then use that feeling and experience to secure two new clients tomorrow.

9. Discover your passion.

Obsession can be an extremely powerful motivator since it creates its own motivational might. In fact, the most successful individuals are those are who chased their passion and are doing what they love to do.

When you become passionate, whether if it’s at work, exercising, or volunteering, it no longer becomes laborious. It becomes something that you enjoy, look forward to, and want to get better.

10. Visualization.

“Visualization is the process of forming mental images and pictures of a desired future,” writes Hanan Parvez for PsychMechanics. ”Those who have dreams and visions of an ideal future life visualize more naturally than others.

Visualization is not idle, fruitless activity like daydreaming but in fact it can dramatically increase a person’s chances to turn his dreams into reality.”

How can visualization encourage motivation?

“We are motivated by emotions and when we visualize we also experience the emotions that are associated with the thing we are visualizing,” writes Parvez. “By visualizing how your life will be like if you did or didn’t reach your goals, you can motivate yourself tremendously. You can both positively and negatively motivate yourself by visualization.”

Believe it or not, research has found that mental practices are almost effective as true physical practice for athletes.

Additionally, as Tomas Laurinavicius explains in the Huffington Post, “Visualization process works as a form of relaxation as it reduces anxiety, with visualization there are no limitations, you can be and do anything. You can gain inspiration to pursue your dreams as you have already seen them happen, boost confidence and improve focus to work toward your goals.”

Laurinavicius recommends that you, “Start with a simple skill that you want to learn, like waking up earlier or eating slower. That way you can practice with something easier and strengthen your visualization skills before tackling the big complex skills.”
