28.04 #8 MIND-MAP

I believe that creating a mind-map helps a lot in preparing for writing a speech. Because you can see all the subtopics of your problem and choose exactly the ones that you can and want to highlight in your speech. I will definitely choose a few subtopics.

28.04 #5 Persuasive speech

I chose the topic: "Why do we need feminism?"

1.  I want to talk about this topic because it is an actual problem in our modern world. Women often face disrespect and the influence of offensive stereotypes.
2. Because this is about respect for people and this topic is relevant for everyone not just women. We are all human beings regardless of gender.
3. Gender equality is very important.
4. The need to be understood. I want them to think seriously about this issue. To make them rethink something.

1. All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it
is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. Arthur
Schopenhauer (1788-1860)

2. He who has a "why" to live, can bear with almost any "how".
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900)

3. Whether you think that you can, or that you can't, you are usually
right. Henry Ford (1863-1947)

4. Sometimes it is not enough that we do our best; we must do what
is required. Sir Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

5. In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever new before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite. Paul Dirac (1902-1984)

6. I don't know why we are here, but I'm pretty sure that it is not in
order to enjoy ourselves. Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951)

7. Be nice to people on your way up, because you meet them on your
way down. Jimmy Durante (1893-1980)

8. The man who goes alone can start today but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready.

28.04 #3 CHALLENGE 2

2.  WRITE TO 3 RANDOM PEOPLE ON SOC. NET. SOMETHING NICE AND MOTIVATIONAL.

I decided to use the vk.com site for my 2d task.

I wrote to three random people,  they are complete strangers to me. I wrote to women only.

You can check the text of my messages and be sure that I wrote them.

I made some conclusions for myself:

1. When you write your own wishes it very little comes out because you don't know this person.

 You can copy a nice text from the Internet but then it will have a different effect. When you write a wish yourself you will feel real excitement because you wrote from your heart.

2. You don't do anything wrong when you write to a stranger.

It all depends on your attitude and self-esteem. You don't commit a crime when you write nice things to a person and you don't have to be afraid of it.

3. The answers may be different. In my case you can see it.

The person can thank you in return but for politeness. Or may say that when he is pleased.

And the other person may not respond to your message or be rude. But the main thing is always to keep calm.

Conclusion:

We really need the skill of social communication in modern life and in any profession. I took the first step to stop being afraid to write to strangers. I noticed that I'm not too scared to do it now.

28.04 #2 evaluating Julia's S speech

28.04 #1 sp c

It was told about social groups. They are small and large groups . We certainly fall into both categories.
Social influence is a very important aspect of life and is associated with power. I first heard about the power of reward, punishment, and information. I knew that we are confronted with it every day but I didn't know what it's called in terms.

22.04 JULIA'S SPEECH

22.04 - CHALLENGE 1

1. START TO COMMENT EACH OTHER

 I want to thank my groupmate Angelina. She shared a link to her blog with me and I was very happy to see it. Angelina takes a responsible approach to blog design, she has very beautiful posts and it's very nice to read someone's personal records.
    I felt a little excited when I wrote a comment. I wanted to convey my emotions and show how much I liked the blog.  This is the first time I have commented on my colleague's work in writing form. I tried to write a useful review and please Angelina, I really want her blog to be seen by my other colleagues and friends.

I think it was good for me and for her. We study together and we need the support of our group not only the support of the professor. I will continue to leave comments to Angelina and my groupmates.

22/04 - Social psychology

I was interested in this information. Indeed, we often encounter aggression in life. I have never heard of instrumental and hostile aggression that aims to achieve a different goal. And it became a discovery that aggression can increase with age and help a species survive.
Aggression, like conflict, has its stages. And if at the initial stage a person copes with emotions, he will stop the spread of aggression. When we are annoyed, we try to understand and reflect on why the person did not act in a different way. I have also noticed this in my own.

#15.04 - ex 5 Maxim

Evaluation 

   I think that Maxim spoke briefly and clearly about ways to overcome the stage fright.
But it would be better if the speech included the words bundles. Due to them the performance would be more structured.
  There were no sharp changes in intonation. I noticed calm manner of speech, that's very good! I would like Maxim to emphasize some words by stresses. I would like to add that I didn't have enough personal experience from Maxim about how he fights with stage fright. And I didn't have enough emotions. But this is my personal opinion.
   It is worth paying attention to the presentation of Maxim. It is made in calm colors and there is no unnecessary information on the slides. This is very competent.
   He was on time. The performance was not too long or too short.

15.04 - ex 3 list of advices which I liked

1. Take deep breaths, from the diaphragm. 
Regulating the breath cycle is the most accessible technique for changing the body’s kinesthetic
state.
also: meditation, trance inducement, alternate
nostril breathing and other yoga exercises. 
 As you force yourself to take a deep breath, the oxygen/carbon dioxide balance is restored, and the body interprets the big sigh as an “all clear” signal. As the stress levels begin to decline, so will the rest of the symptoms.

I really like this method because it allows me to control yourself, your emotions and your level of excitement. I tried to do this but I am still in the process of self-improvement.

2. Exercise. 
Most stage fright victims swear this is the best solution of all. Not only does exercise reduce stress and help deal with those large muscle contractions, it also produces endorphins. Regular excercise is best, of course, but even a workout the night before or morning of a big speech will help you stay relaxed.

Frequent conversations and participation in discussions in a foreign and native language will help me get out of my comfort zone and feel confident. 

3. Get your rest. 
For many business people, the presentation is just the most stressful event in an already stressed life. If you are already functioning at the borderline, you might lack the energy reserves you need to face a
presentation. Speeches are not something you only need to give once in a while. Your life in business will probably require you to make presentations of one kind or another on a regular basis. If you are going to be successful, you simply must make sure that your body is ready for the challenge.

This is a very useful skill in our modern world. Workaholics have a hard time because they often don't know how to rest like me. I also need to be able to relax correctly.

#15.04 - ex 2 symptom

* As a result of my stress, my blood pressure increases. The body provides rapid delivery of oxygen through the body in response to stress.
I'm worried a lot, my heart rate increases a lot, and because of this, I start making mistakes in my speech.
