How To Help Struggling Students Go From Sinking To Soaring!

Experts estimate that 6 to 10 percent of the school-aged population in the United States is learning disabled and approximately 3 to 10 percent of the population as a whole is diagnosed with ADD. This growing problem impacts many areas of society and there is a growing need for effective solutions.

Parenting or teaching a child with ADD or learning difficulties can, no doubt, be an enormous challenge. It requires patience of you that you may not have thought you had; persistence that you may frequently have to call upon; and consistency that you may be learning along the way. Here are some tips to assist you in providing the best possible environment for your child to experience success both at home and at school.

Young people with ADD (like all of us) are doing the best they know how to do with what they have to work with. When they have more options available to them, they will make better choices. You, as the adult, are the teacher, which means that your child will model you. If you are flexible and open to learning new ways of thinking and behaving, your child will be open as well.

There is positive intention behind every behavior, no matter how hurtful or how bizarre the behavior may seem. In other words, there is a need on some level that is being met by doing what they?re doing. If we can look for what the purpose is behind the behavior or what need is getting met, then we can find other more constructive solutions to meeting that need. Always look for the positive intention behind behavior.

Step into their model of the world. Imagine, for instance, what it would feel like to drive in the rain without windshield wipers and how challenging it would be to simply keep everyone in the car safe, let alone maintain any sort of emotional balance (this is what it feels like in the mind of a person with ADD). When you communicate with them, see the communication through their eyes and through their model of the world rather than through yours; they will be much more open to what you have to say if you do.

Understand that young people with ADD operate in a world of images, so verbal and auditory communication is often the least important mode of communication to them. Words are very slow and difficult to process. Whenever you give a young person with ADD instructions, have him overlap the words into pictures in his mind and have him feel his body following the instructions. For instance, if you want him to do the dishes and then pack his backpack for school, have him SEE and FEEL doing the dishes and then packing his backpack.

Visual learning is the best way to learn academic subjects. Make sure they learn visually by making pictures in their mind of doing academic tasks like spelling words, vocabulary words and math facts. When they are reading, make sure they overlap pictures with the words they are reading. Using a visual learning strategy is more interesting, more effective, takes much less time and it?s just more fun.

Celebrate and appreciate what makes them unique. One of the biggest hurdles that young people with ADD or learning challenges face is the belief that they are ?stupid?, ?weird? or just ?don?t fit in?. The truth is that they are often a step away from brilliance and have the ability to see the world in ways that most of us simply can?t (think Albert Einstein, J.F.K., Cher and Robin Williams who all had learning disabilities) . Consistently looking for and recognizing their uniqueness and value will go a long way in overcoming this belief and raising their self-confidence.

Choosing a Comfortable Yet Flattering Bra

Choosing a Comfortable Yet Flattering Bra

 by: Wendy Yeager

Todays bra is not only designed to make you feel pretty and sexy, they are designed for comfort and practicality.

You can choose from an underwire bra for support or a bra without underwire. Need some help with adding a little extra to your bustline? Then choose a padded bra or a push up bra. Maybe youre lucky enough to have a little extra natural padding already. You could then choose from a minimizer bra.

Not shy and would like to show off your bustline? Try a bra that will show a little cleavage. You could even try an adhesive bra which can be adjusted so it wont show under any neckline.

Todays new fashions sometimes call for a bra with special straps. You could try an adjustable bra with straps which can be worn far out on the shoulders or removed to be used as a strapless bra. Maybe you like to wear halter tops. So, try a halter bra.

Of course sometimes you just want a bra to make you feel pretty. There are a wide variety of colors to choose: pink, lavender, white, black, red, etc. Also, why not try a bra with lace trim or ones made of silk or satin?

Most importantly, wear the bra that makes you feel most comfortable.

Martial Arts Creativity And Innovation Is King

 



Martial Arts - Creativity And Innovation Is KingSubmitted By: Lee Mainprize  

That?s right; creativity and innovation are two words that are closely connected to your school?s future profitability ?and to your personal sanity. To create a unique niche in your community ?a unique selling proposition for your business ?that keeps you far ahead of your competitors, you need to apply creativity to your methods and innovate like a man or woman-on-a-mission. To stay sane in a industry-gone-mad and to keep your wits about you through the mind-numbing repetitive nature of both the material and those damned business seminars the guys in the suits keep jamming down our collective throats, you have to be black-belt-creative and ingeniously-innovative.

Want some help in revving up your creative engines? May I start the process by pointing out an example of what I?m writing about? Good. Allow me to introduce you to the UBBT. Afterwards, since I made mention of ?sanity,? I?m going to offer my opinion about the martial arts industry in general ?and why I think the UK and Europe may very well be ahead ?not behind --of the U.S. when it comes to the business of the martial arts.

The Ultimate Black Belt Test (UBBT)

The UBBT is way, way out in left field. It?s almost a complete redesign of the what, where, how, when, and why of black belt testing ?and it?s not meant only for black belts, it?s meant to crack the ice on all levels of belt testing, as I think there?s a lot of room for improvement in everything to do with martial arts training, intent, mission, and method. The program?s chock full of innovative new ideas; here are few you may find interesting (a partial list):

1. Belt testing should transpire over a longer period of time. Instead of taking a belt test on a given day, a student could take a test everyday for a month ?or, preferably, longer. Instead of an instructor pointing to a well done kata, he or she now tells the story of the 500 repetitions of the kata the student did to achieve his or her rank. The story is now the journey ?instead of the destination.

Embrace the idea that your test is today! Every day! Why wait to peak? Why wait for some date in the future to live with absolute intensity and passion and drive and awareness? For that matter, why isn?t today as meaningful or important or vital as the day you test for your black belt? That?s the new concept ?and one you can embrace and implement, like, now!

2. Accomplishments are meant to be quantified. Students do hundreds and sometimes thousands of repetitive behaviors and techniques as a part their training and testing process. Why not take credit for the reps? Why not make a certain number of reps a requirement? If a student did a kata five times a day for 90 days, that would be 450 repetitions! Why not make 450 reps of a kata a requirement for testing? Why not give the student a journal to record their reps, something they can also use to document the journey they take --as they labor to learn the lessons that practice so willingly instructs them in?

Participants in the UBBT do 50,000 push-ups and 1000 reps of a single kata as a part of their test. Which, at first glance sounds like a lot, but ends up being just 150 push ups a day and three measly reps of a kata a day for a year. No big deal! But hey, 50,000 and 1000 reps of a kata --bragging rights! But beyond the physical attainment of it, do you know what this teaches the average student about accomplishment? It teaches them the power of incremental steps toward big, big goals. Why not quantify your student?s accomplishments? It?s an idea whose time has come.

3. Half to two-thirds of a student?s belt testing requirements should occur outside of your school. If you?re requiring your students to quantify their training as a part of their test, then why not bring other behaviors ?outside of your dojo --into the process too? Five ?acts of kindness? a day adds up to 450 in 90 days. What if you required 100 home-chores between tests for kids under 18-years of age? Parents would love you. If you required ?ten personal victories? (another UBBT requirement) for adults, or any number for that matter that would be practical between belt tests, imagine what accomplishments you could take partial credit for.

4. Journaling is the bomb. If you visit the UBBT website and visit the JOURNAL pages. There are currently more than 3000 journal entries made by participants in this project. This is how people have gotten to know each other. This is how people who aren?t in the test have been able to follow the progress and journey of participants. This is how the media has kept an eye on the test.

The new viewpoint of the testing process, and for that matter martial arts school membership in general, is that your students aren?t signing up for a course or a membership or a class ?they?re on a heroic journey. The hero?s journey, as described by author Joseph Campbell, is The Exodus, The Epiphany, and The Return. Haven?t read Joseph Campbell? Time to hit the book store.

What would happen if your black belt candidates each made an on-line journal entry once a week, for six-months to a year prior to their black belt test? How many of their classmates or co-workers would read them? It?s the perfect way to pull all sorts of people into the testing process, by sharing the experience with them. Before this journaling process began in the UBBT, a lot of family, friends, classmates, and co-workers were left in the dark about what a black belt candidate goes thru when preparing for a test. Not any more! And another bonus to journaling; after their year of training, many of the UBBT participants have expressed appreciation for being left with an entire year of their life documented in weekly ?and sometimes daily ?journal entries.

The UBBT?s website details many other creative concepts for belt testing (and subsequently training, teaching, and school promotion). My recommendation is to study it carefully ?with an open mind. While you may not embrace every aspect of the program, there are many concepts in it you can use to improve your testing process and your school. Oh, and did I mention, all these ideas are free!

My next UBBT is going to feature 30 black belts from around the world, armed with 30 video cameras. We?ll be filming our training for a whole year ?and creating a documentary film with an Academy Award winning documentary filmmaker. Sweet!

My Opinion about the Martial Arts Industry and Martial Arts in the U.K.

Well, let me try to put this delicately, without stepping on anyone?s toes: I think the martial arts business world ought to get its butt kicked, without mercy. Of course, I?m speaking figuratively, as I?m a non-violent type, but really ?this industry is in need of a good thrashing. We?ve got masters who are anything but, over-controlling associations; un-sustainable and unhealthy business methods; inadequate instructor education; unreasonably high student attrition; and an emphasis on contract amount, gross income, and money that?s completely out-of-balance with any sort of emotional or spiritual ?martial arts? development. In my opinion, as an industry, we promise a boat load of benefits, but more often that not we end up delivering a thimble full of our potential.

There?s no better example of what?s wrong with the martial arts industry than taking any popular martial arts publication and opening it side-by-side with any popular yoga magazine. In one, every article discusses some aspect of spirituality and consciousness training, in the other the word ?spiritual? is, for the most part, non-existent. What happened to us? How did we let the yoga industry steal our unique selling proposition? Since when did yoga capture the market on spiritual and emotional growth? And when did the martial arts world become all about cage-fighting, physical techniques and/or ways to throw birthday parties, run after-school programs, and upgrade students to ?leadership courses??

I have often heard it said that schools in the UK are 10 to 20 years behind schools in the U.S. Well, that?s just not true. Why don?t you all just skip the crass commercialism, skip the stupidity of high-pressure sales, skip the cheesy promotional ideas, skip the lame collection policies, and skip the great American pastime of chasing the dollar and thinking that bigger is always better. We don?t, in general, know how to do it over here in the States and better that any other country. What puts you ahead of the game is that you can learn from our mistakes --and then you won?t have to go through this demeaning period of selling out for profit that?s causing more than a good deal of damage to our image. In fact, many of us are rapidly moving away from the ?business? aspects of school management and seeking, once again, to find a kind of mastery and enlightenment in our martial arts journey.

The systems and the business of our industry are important and essential, as is brushing one?s teeth. You have to brush your teeth to stay healthy; but we all know that we don?t LIVE to clean our teeth. We live for purpose and meaning and intent and passion.

I would like to suggest that you skip a lot of the martial arts industry?s standard methods of operation, even if they seem attractive at first glance, and use your creativity to craft methods that you feel are sound. Go with your gut instincts, not necessarily what?s working for some bloke in a suit half-way around the world. If you innovate now, instead of following the pack, I predict it wouldn?t be long before folks in the States are coming to your seminars to learn the art of martial arts business.

Am I Really A StrollerMonger?

Am I Really A Stroller-Monger?

 by: David Leonhardt

I was reading A Modern Infant Armada, a humor column in Maclean's Magazine written by a fellow humor columnist. Writing about it now is a bit like a painter painting another painter or a singer singing about another singer (but it not like a cook cooking another cook.).

David Russell (yes, another humor columnist named David) laughs at his neighbor for parking both cars in the driveway to make room in the garage for four strollers for just one child. I laughed with him. Four strollers for just one baby is ridiculous, right?

However, David Russell becomes a parent himself, a condition that afflicts many unsuspecting homo sapiens, and he concludes that a call to his neighbor is warranted: I need to see if he can help me get a fleet rate.

Traitor! I cried out. Stroller monger!

Who's a traitor? my wife asked as she walked in the room. And just what is a stroller monger.

I resisted the obvious answer that a stroller monger is somebody who mongs strollers. David Russell. He says that one stroller is enough for any child, but then he decides to buy an entire fleet.

Say, we could have saved a bundle if we had applied for a fleet rate, my wife mused.

What? We don't have four strollers.

My wife smiled. It was a sweet smile you could just fall in love with...if you did not know that it meant, Oh yes we do!

We do not.

My wife took out her counting fingers. First there is the car seat, she said, pressing down the first finger. We snap it into the stroller base whenever we go anywhere.

OK, that's one.

Then there is the SUV, she said, pressing down on a second finger. The SUV is a full sized stroller. We bought it when we were still squeezing it on a downtown apartment. With no storage space, it stood in the entrance area, blocking our path to the kitchen and any hope of escaping if the place caught fire. The SUV is the Hummer of strollers.

OK, that is a stroller, I will grant you. But that's just two.

We also have the fold-up stroller, my wife said, pressing down a third finger.

But she's not even using it yet.

She will soon and we have it now, my wife pointed out. Then there is the old fold-up stroller we kept as a backup. That makes four.

You can't count duplicates. That's double counting.

It takes double the space, my wife insisted. We have four strollers.

I stared in silence. Slowly it sunk in. Yes, there were two Davids who were humor columnists, but there were also two Davids who were stroller-mongers.

Uh-oh. My wife was smiling again. She was watched for just the right moment to strike. Our baby has more seats in this house than anybody else has.

That's ridiculous. No sooner had the words left my mouth than I remembered the boomerang rule. Words like ridiculous, ludicrous, silly, stupid and big mouth usually apply only to the person who speaks them.

My wife rhymed off our seats, Three on the couch, two chairs in the living room, six in the kitchen, one in the bathroom and one at each of our desks. Plus the three red chairs Little Lady has in the living room. That makes 17.

Ha! I knew it couldn't be true.

Then came that deadly sweet smile again, the smile that said, Take my hand while I lead you around the house to see why you should think first and shout 'Aha!' later.

In the kitchen stood the high chair and the sit-in play saucer. In her office sat the rocking chair that never rocked and the bouncy chair that never bounced. There was the swing seat, and there were two cushion seats for sitting upright on the floor. She opened the door to the enclosed porch, and there were the four strollers and the car seat she would soon be using.

That makes 12, my wife tallied. We each have fewer than six.

I thought really hard. Aha! I said again, proudly pointing out that this time I had thought first and shouted 'Aha!' later.. We have three chairs on the balcony, and six on the patio. There are also six folding chairs for the fire pit.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and there was no reason to forget all the outdoors furniture at a time like this. Unfortunately, there was no reason to forget arithmetic, either. Our baby still had the most seats in the house and outside the house, too.

Uh, do toilet seats count?

My wife smiled her sweet smile again, a smile that could only mean, So, stroller monger, what do you have to say for yourself now?

I knew that another humor columnist named David had just been labeled a traitor. Meekly, I mumbled. Lawn tractor seat?

Profit of Investing in Real Estate

The stock markets have crashed and recovered and then crashed again. Similarly for commodities like silver and gold. The overall trend for silver and gold is positive though . Also stock market indices too over the years look positive. But that's an index, only if you buy the right stocks do you get the benefit. Essentially the risks, with an investment like stocks, are huge. Moreover less risky instruments like Mutual Funds have huge entry and exit fees.

Real Estate is the one investment from which you can get a steady income, and at the same time enjoy a steady appreciation. This specially holds good if you buy apartments close to IT parks, railways/metro stations in any big city, close to any place of commercial or industrial activity. A rental income is an assured monthly income with little hassles, all things going right.

It's also a usable investment. You can feel it, touch it, live in it, rent it out.

Currently real estate prices are increasing literally on a daily basis. This is definitely not a trend that is sustainable. If you plan to realistically invest in the real estate market, please ensure that you have a timeframe of a few years. The current real estate increases are hugely attributed to the buying power of IT professionals and their willingness to pay a premium for any piece of property. Places like Kerala too have show steep escalations and the main reason is the money flowing in from the Middle East. Even though Keralites believe that the land prices there are now higher than what they should be, on comparing to cities like Bangalore, Kerala is still very under priced. Similarly for Pune. Land prices in Pune are seriously undervalued compared to Bangalore. In 2005 you could purchase land in Kondhva for around 300 Rs per sq feet and land in Bhugaon close to the IT Park for 400 Rs per sq feet. The prices have increased a 100% within a year. It's still cheap compared to Bangalore !!

High incomes of IT employees, a bull run on the stock market and foreign repatriations have made the Indian real estate market a little volatile at this point. But a country with a billion people and still growing will always have a housing issue, and any investment in the housing market can never go wrong. Real estate; whether land or houses will always sell at a premium.

For most people who live in 3 storeyed apartments that are over 20 years old, builders have offered schemes where current apartment owners sell the land and building to the builder, in return for a bigger apartment. The builder constructs a high rise there and recovers his cost from the fact that in a building where there were 12 apartments, there are now 60. This is a win-win situation. Builders get prime land in the city and the apartment owners get an upgraded apartment that has a lot more market value.

Rents too have been on the increase. Apartments close to work places or transportation hubs rent well. Since most tenants are professionals, owners need not worry about tenants staying for long periods and then refusing to vacate.

Interest rates in India are much much higher than in the US. There it's about 6%, we're close to 9%. Realistically you can expect property to appreciate between 10-15% every year. Holds true more for land. For housing the property price increase usually depends on increase in costs of raw material like steel and cement.

Do not always look at real estate just as an investment. A house is always a great place to live in. For first timers, do not look at real estate as an investment, but a home to go to.

Living The Laid Back Life In Tennessee

Tennessee is a great destination for the avid vacationer and the couple or family looking to get away to a more rural lifestyle. Of course if you are into the big city life, Tennessee can accommodate you for that as well.

Eastern Tennessee is one of the foremost vacation destinations in the Southeastern United States with cities such as Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and of course the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Smoky Mountain National Park is the most visited National Park in the United States with more than 9 million visitors every year and Cades Cove is the most popular destination within the park. Cades Cove offers a look back to what life was like for the early settlers during the 19th century. A 10 mile loop road around the Cove is the highlight of a visit here.

The park also includes more than 800 miles of hiking trails for everyone from a casual nature walk to backcountry rock climbing.

Gatlinburg is the main town that services the National Park and if you aren't camping in the park you are probably staying in Gatlinburg. An interesting little known fact about Gatlinburg is that ten times as many people lodge in Gatlinburg every night as live there. Gatlinburg and the surrounding area boasts accommodations for more than 30,000 people. Some of the more popular places to stay are in log cabins with incredible mountain views or in a secluded wooded cabin away from everything. There isn't anything that will give you more of a sense of the rural and relaxing lifestyle than to vacation in a log cabin.

Gatlinburg's sister city, Pigeon Forge, offers many attractions and hotels on the main road through town. Go-karts and the Dollywood theme park are the more popular attractions. Pigeon Forge also boasts one of the largest outlet malls in the south for the person that can never get enough shopping.

Tennessee has a rich history that includes many major battles fought in the Civil War. If you are a civil war buff you can visit such historic sites as Chattanooga National Military Park, Fort Donelson National Military Park, Shiloh National Military Park, Stones River National Military Park and the Andrew Johnson National Historic Site as well as others.

If you would like to live in Tennessee and still be close to the mountains, but away from the tourist areas, then Knoxville is your city. With a population of 180,000 and great home prices you can be within 45 minutes of the Smokies and enjoy everything the city has to offer.

And if you do enjoy the amenities of the big city life then Memphis will surely accommodate you. The Memphis metropolitan area has a population over 1.2 million and offers everything you could want in a big city. It is famous for music and has produced several genres of well know music such as the blues, rock n roll and gospel. Some of the more famous Memphis musicians are B.B. King, Johnny Cash and of course the King of Rock n Roll, Elvis Presley.

Tennessee offers a little bit of everything for almost every one. Come and enjoy a great vacation or choose Tennessee as your permanent address.

Alan LeStourgeon writes about several areas of the country on his Melbourne and Palm Bay web site where you can get more information about the Tennessee lifestyle and search Tennessee MLS listings for a new home.

Before You Jump in the Free Agent Pool!

Before you Jump Into the Free Agent Pool!
by Linda Blew Carlson

A free agent used to be a sports figure, or entertainer whose contract had run out and was looking for a new one. But with the change in our economy and the survival mode that companies have switched to, a vast number of people have entered the arena of free agents. Recent books and articles claim we are becoming a Free Agent Nation, within a Free Agent Economy.

Are you ready to join the millions who have chosen to become free agents? If you have or are planning to change your work life and want more choice in what you do and how you do it, you need to consider two things. How good are you at working with others? Do you know what you naturally do best?

If you can answer these two questions quickly, think about whether these are skills you have learned or whether they come naturally. Many people think that being trained to do something well is good enough; others will buy this knowledge or skill from them. That may be true or it may be short lived. There isn't much today that you can learn that will not become obsolete about the time you learn it. People aren't very flexible when they learn a skill. They learn how to do it best and lack the flexibility to adapt when the skill is no longer required. How do you stay flexible? Identify what you were born to do and you easily adapt to changes!

Being a successful free agent depends heavily on people skills. The Income part depends on your being able to cut directly through the defenses of people who are inundated with info the minute they get out of bed in the morning. It is pretty unrealistic to think you will get enough work to support yourself by relying on others to tell someone else how good you are. So brushing up on your people skills is essential.

There are some great resources for you, the prospective free agent. For instance Dan Pink in his new book defines what you are feeling right now. He says that people by the thousands each day are fleeing the organization to become free agents. He says; This person is the independent worker who operates on his or her terms, untethered to a large organization, serving multiple clients and customers instead of a single boss. This is good information. You need to know where you fit in the scheme of things.

Toni Lonier wants to give free agents the tools they will need to succeed. Barbara Reinhold recognizes the personal fears and gives advice and resources to deal with them. Sara Horowitz has developed a place where free agents can get similar and sometimes better benefits than organizations offer. This takes care of the basics. But no one has asked or answered the really important questions yet. How good are you at working with others, really? Do you know what you naturally do best? (This is usually very different from what you have been trained to do.)

Many free agents recognize that going it alone does not mean being alone. A recent issue of INC. has its cover page devoted to an example of going solo and teaming. Newer web sites do recognize the need for building teams that share projects and personal support. These sites talk about the need to get along well with others, and how to make significant contributions to the team. But just getting along with others doesn't mean you know how to get the best performance from them, or yourself for that matter.

So, what we have going today, is a growing understanding of the role of the free agent. We also have an expanding amount of information generated by people who are free agents themselves to help us. We have existing groups and new ones forming that will share and support us. What is missing?

Recent ground breaking research, provides answers for the two questions you must face, before you really stand a strong chance of making it as a free agent. It explains how to get others to give willing cooperation consistently. It explains what you have as in-born skills, that not only showcase your learned skills, but also come to your rescue when you need help.

It is important that you create and environment for yourself that removes the uncomfortable stress you have felt in organizations, and provides the greatest opportunity for your success, while being yourself. That means you need to maximize your strengths and minimize your liabilities. It also means that you can capitalize on your natural skills and be able to help others do the same. This new research gives you the ability to do all of this, along with the insight into how to form powerful teams, that quickly gain recognition for outstanding performance.

There are two simple steps to take before becoming a free agent. First, I suggest you go to the web site at http://www.styleworks4u.com and get information that will make establishing your free agent status faster and easier. It will give you an opportunity to take some free assessments that will identify what you are naturally good at. This is the starting point.

The authors books mentioned above, and many others, can be secured at any major library, or from most of the major Internet book sellers. Also a couple of key sites to get information on free agents and business are: www.fastcompany.com and www.business2.com. As you surf the search engines and directories, you will find many excellent sites and web pages. When you make the jump into the free agent pool - give yourself the very real chance for success!

Linda Carlson is President of Focus I. Inc. and has been a free agent all her life. She is dedicated to helping others work freely and powerfully. Her bio and story can be found at; http://www.styleworks4u.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi/about/index.html
