Talent is what differentiates one from another. Everyone is created with his/her own unique talent. It is your talent that make you in life.

When one develops his/her talent, new things begin to come in. It is an error for one to hide his talent because the early to display it the better you become what you want to be. Our talents is our pride.

Cheers! Thanks for posting such a wonderful one.

We all have gifts from God. He gave them to us for a reason. To not use them for good is to insult our Creator. It’s an act of irreverence.

I usually missed many opportunities because of my shyness. They say my voice is good but I dont have the guts to join contests mainly because I am ah introvert. Just the thought of me performing in fsont of many people makes me tremble and nervous. I really want to showcase my talent too but shyness îs taking over me. 🙁

Just having talents is not good enough. My husband never used his talent as a baritone range singer. Most introverts never use their talents.

If you have talent must be hidden at any cast but talent remains hidden due to fears and no self confidence in all branches of life. We’re all born with talents that set us apart from the crowd, special traits that make us who we are and shape our life stories.

Whether your talent is singing, swimming, coming up with creative business ideas or being an excellent listener, you’ve got to cultivate and celebrate what makes you unique. Realizing your talents and having the confidence to share them will help you reach your full potential and feel more satisfied in life. If you want to learn how to feel confident about what makes you special.

Sometimes our natural talents get obscured when we live by others’ expectations of what we should be good at. If you’ve been living, working or going to school in an environment in which your talents aren’t acknowledged, you might be confused as to what they even are at this point. Remember that your talents are what make you you, and they can’t be dictated by anyone else. They’re part of your natural makeup.

The power to be great at something is inside you, but that doesn’t mean you’ll excel without practice. The most talented musicians in the world spend hours practicing every single day, exploring the depths of their abilities. It’s the same for any type of talent; you have the natural ability to exercise it, but you’ll have no idea how powerful your talent can be unless you practice, practice, practice. As you start feeling out your talent, confidence in your abilities will soon follow.

Stay in constant prayer indeed. A very wise advise. Some of us find it hard to carefully observe the realty in which we live. We prefer to discuss and debate about ideas rather than to analyze particular situations. Whether we teach or work miracles, these abilities and ministries given us for the good of the community do not assure us that we are in the grace of God. Nevertheless, God sees the way we use our talents and we commit sin if we keep them to ourselves.

Its quite unfortunate.

It is surprising that after so many years, only Russians are held guilty

Russians have not raised the issue for time being although they must be feeling too bad and shamed right now.

Discrimination is not restricted to Racism alone. In every walk of life people are given that treatment ostracising them from taking part in whatever people who do that, consider that they are not worthy of being there.
🙁

You say right hat racism is a curse on earth like poverty we all must eradicate it from the whole world but if the leaders are serious in this matter and the racism producers are politicians for political benefits and nothings else.

I have read recently that In Eastern and Central Europe, incidents of racism are becoming worryingly frequent while public condemnation is often not as loud as it should be. As recently as September, we have seen deeply alarming developments within the supposedly safe and politically correct borders of the European Union.

Anti-Roma protests, many of them violent, swept across Bulgaria like wildfire in the autumn as the capital city Sofia played host to a demonstration entitled ‘Gypsy crime: a threat to the state.’ Thousands attended as the tremors of pro-nationalist feeling were felt all the way to the Black Sea. The protests and public reaction towards the Roma was naturally a cause for great concern.

The politically undecided, the ruling powers, the fair-minded people of Europe. We all have a duty to stand up and speak out against racism, whoever it offends and wherever it takes place.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon delivered this powerful statement to mark the day, highlighting the real dangers of racism and the ways in which it can be allowed to fester in society.

Let us all hope that the dark clouds of racial prejudice will soon pass away, and that in some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over us with all their scintillating beauty.

At first glance anything looks impossible to achieve. But when giving it a second look it seems much easier

Life is not difficult not easy but it is a puzzle and life and death is its examination. Children are its question. Life is nothing but the harbinger of death no charm on earth but sorrows all around. A common adage is that you need to work harder and suffer more than anyone else if you want to achieve success.

From what I have learned from people who have accomplished big things in both their lives and careers, one of their most common “a-ha moments” was when they realized that working hard was not enough to succeed, and that often it was even a waste of time and energy.

Thinking from this perspective, I have collected 3 things that just are as important, or even more important, than hard work when it comes to achieving success.

Work on yourself 10 times as hard as you work on external elements, and you will feel that you are moving 10 times faster towards what you want.

Almost all the hard work you have to do to succeed is focused on replacing your routines and habits with the ones a successful person would have. By deliberately changing your procedures, you change the results you achieve, the value you provide, and the way you are seen by yourself and the rest of the world.

@asuny. I too want to see many joining here. This is a site that has paid twice and I am sure they will the the third time.
We should give this site time as they are still in the process of ironing out and producing a state of the art site.

I also hope to see some new faces here, hopefully that they will write, not just joining forums and asking for friendship.

I am glad to say that Literacybase had been a blessing to me since blogjob is at a “frozen” status right now.

My experience at this site has been positive. But I have not been here for very long. Here is one of the reasons why some don’t want to sign up for Literacy Base. They feel that they don’t have control over their content. However, the terms are spelled out. So if you don’t agree with The Agreement, then you should not join. It states plainly at the bottom of the page: “All rights reserved by LiteracyBase”. If you’re OK with that, then join! It’s a nice community. 🙂

it is true that when some people don’t get what they wanted, they expect others not to get it either, which you may call it “selfishness and jealousy”

If one had achieved success through hardship, believing in himself while others looked down on him before, these people are so jealous that he had succeeded and still couldn’t apprehend that looking down on him didn’t work out.

I can prove what you say is true… I am going to write an item about it. We in Jamaica actually tested the racism….

When you talk of racism Apartheid comes to mind and this I suppose was confined to South Africa. It does not exist any more but individually people practice it here and there. Why just the colour in every walk of life there is this segregation for different reasons.

It is difficult to change the attitude of privileged people who are used to defaming, exploiting and cheating others for personal gain or hatred. Discrimination and racism is prevalent worldwide

indeed it is unfair for a nation to treat the color of a person skin different, same goes with religion.
racism is everywhere, not only in the western countries but in asian countries too.
Though I can’t mention country name, I can tell you that the majority of the same religion treated other minority religion with unjustified laws and rules.

It is quality and not quantity that is important when it comes to having people around us. If you look at FB accounts there you will find some with countless friends but they are not friend but just a number.

he most important aspect of connecting with other businesses is the element of positivity; it is far easier to be dragged down by someone’s discouragement or apathy than it is for you to raise them up to your level, so try to cut off or ignore any negative influences. There are some who try to build things and there are others to try to tear them down: don’t let those telling you something cannot be done stop you from doing it.

Enthusiasm is contagious, and being around other businesses with the same high levels of drive and ambition that you strive towards can only increase your motivation and inspire a little healthy competition; a company doesn’t have to be in the same sector or industry as you to be like-minded, they just need to have a similar attitude. If you’re a start-up business, it’s no bad thing to associate with other start-ups and SME’s, but what are their goals for the future?

Are their aims simply to run a successful local business? If you’re dreaming on a bigger scale than that, don’t be afraid to communicate with companies bigger than yours and receive invaluable advice on how they got to where they are.

Inspiration isn’t just a one way street, either. Eventually, when you are experiencing success and having your ideas heard, you can start to influence others and allow them to discuss their goals, too. Encouraging someone and giving them great advice now could reap plenty of rewards in the future. Building a network of support, for you and others, means you have a source of support and innovation as well as a place to shout about your company’s accomplishments.

Picking wheat from chaff and managing one’s life is what you have so aptly described in your blog. It takes time to do that as good analysis is required before shutting off that which interferes with one’s peace.

Madness is nothing but the uncontrolled state of mind in a negative way at home and out of home. There are two types of madness caused by bad situation and madness caused by evil spirit. Both are dangerous for men and women.

The main cause of madness is that madness, in our culture, is defined by visibility. From the popular press to TV soaps and films, the depiction of madness always borders on the extreme: violent outbursts, fits, hallucinations. But what if madness is not exactly what we think it to be? What if it is the rule rather than the exception?

Madness may be treated in such ways as
A mental illness, like many chronic illnesses, requires ongoing treatment. Fortunately, much progress has been made in the last two decades in treating mental illnesses. As a result, many mental conditions can be effectively treated with one or a combination of the following therapies:

Medication.
Psychotherapy.
Group therapy.
Day treatment or partial hospital treatment.
Specific therapies, such as cognitive-behavior therapy and behavior modification.
Other treatments available include:

Alternative therapies, such as water therapy, massage, and biofeedback.
Creative therapies, such as art therapy, music therapy, or play therapy.
Hypnotherapy.
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS).

For those who thrive with people around them it is not easy to shun some away. But it becomes necessary as by and by they realise that it is quantity and not quantity that one should aim for. I am one of those who always liked people around me. It took me a while and today my world has shrunk and have few real people in my life. My virtual world is expanding.

What if we are the negative people? should we block ourselves too? .I think before blocking anyone in our lives, we should atleast offer them help that they are keeping within themselves. If they refuse or if they did not learn something from us, maybe that’s the time that we should block them from our lives. Spread the love and positivity to them. Let us share our happiness so they may also live at peace. God bless!
