Drumul spre succes

crinamorpho

De multe ori acest drum nu este deloc drept, lin. Drumul spre succes este plin de gropi, urcușuri, eșec, bolovani și așa de prin tufiș mai iese câte un șerpișor.

În 2010 am plecat spre drumul meu, la vârsta de 14 ani, un număr minor și fără buzunare, dar cu vise mărețe și curaj. În timp ce prietenii mei erau la 25km depărtare fiecare cu familia, rutina lor zilnica, viața de seara sau noapte, eu eram într-o cameră cu alți colegi de liceu, o baie comună și cu tema la mate, engleza încă neterminată.

Mi-am atins obiectivele prin muncă și zicala ”never give up” dacă azi o fost greu, mâine va fi mai bine. Educația și munca te scot din sărăcie, îți deschid larg ochii, îți dai seama ce-i viața și ce se întâmplă în jurul tău pe o scală mai largă, nu doar pe câțiva km.

În 2014 am terminat liceul. In 2017 am absolvit facultatea. Acum mi-am atins obiectivele cu care am plecat din comunitatea mea in luna Septembrie, anul 2010.

Succesul a fost educația pe care am primit-o de a lungul anilor, pot să mă angajez cu o diplomă de licență, am cunoștințele necesare și mai mult, știu ce înseamnă să fi o femeie independentă.

Munca, educația, ai ieșit din zona ta de confort rezultă în a avea succesul pe care ți-l dorești mai ales când aparții de o comunitatea dezavantajată.

Sunt multe de scris, multe de povestit, tot ce citiți mai sus sunt doar câteva rânduri dintr-o carte cu zeci de pagini.

#children, english language, phrase, worries

”No worries”

crinamorpho

I hear this phrase at least 100 times a day.

I live in the UK, it’s true. Before coming here, I never heard anyone ending a phone conversation with the phrase ”no worries, mate”. It’s simply annoying to hear so many times a day no worries, no worries and no worries… why British people are so worried all the time?

Excuse my sarcasm!

Accordingly to Wikipedia ”The phrase has influenced a similar phrase used in the Tok Piskin language in Papua New Guinea. Its usage became more common in British English after increased usage in Australian soap operas that aired on television in the United Kingdom. Linguistics experts are uncertain how the phrase became utilized in American English; theories include its use by Steve Irwin on the television program The Crocodile Hunter.

Personally, I do not ”swallow” the word worries, it’s not so positive. It’s funny how people are telling each ”no worries” Like do not worry mate, I got this, let me worry, you sit there on your chair, relax, let me be the ”no worries superhero”.

Once again, excuse my sarcasm! Now let’s go back to work, mate.

No worries!

Hakuna Matata!

Inclusive Education

crinamorpho

Inclusion in education refers to all students being able to access and gain equal opportunities to education and learning.

Inclusive education is the most effective way to give all pupils a fair chance to go to school, learn and develop the skills they need to thrive. It means real learning opportunities for groups who have traditionally been excluded, not only children with disabilities, but speakers of minority languages too.

Some of the benefits of inclusive practice include:

  • Teaching pupils about diversity and equality.
  • Improving, encouraging friendships between diverse children (Diversity)
  • Promoting parental confidence that their children are being accepted and can be successful in the school setting.#

An estimated 240 million children worldwide live with disabilities. Like all children, children with disabilities have ambitions and dreams for their futures. Like all children, they need quality education to develop their skills and realize their full potential.

Yet, children with disabilities are often overlooked in policymaking, limiting their access to education and their ability to participate in social, economic and political life. Worldwide, these children are among the most likely to be out of school. They face persistent barriers to education stemming from discrimination, stigma and the routine failure of decision makers to incorporate disability in school services – Source UNICEF

Happy Earth Day

crinamorpho

”The earth is what we all have in common” there is no other option, people. We are ”stuck” here so we bettter take care of our planet earth.

The first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970, when a US senator from Wisconsin organized a natonal demonstration to raise awareness about environmental issues.

More than a million species are at risk of extinction

According to some experts, we are in the midst of the planet’s sixth mass extinction, which is primarily caused by human activities.

Extinction is a natural occurrence, claiming roughly five species a day, but it’s estimated that hundreds of plant and animal species now face extinction daily.

That’s approximately 1,000 times the natural rate; by the middle of the century, 30 to 50% of all species on the planet will have vanished (www.nationalworld.com).

Climate change impacts human life

This may seem obvious, but with so much focus on the effects climate change has on habitats and the vast array of species that inhabit them, it can be easy to forget the immediate impact on human life it has too.

According to a 2018 study published in The Lancet, rising temperatures, along with an increase in the number of people living in cities and an ageing population, have resulted in a rise in heat-related mortality.

BRAȘOV

crinamorpho

Orașul Brașov a fost fondat de către Cavalerii Teutonici în anul 1211, asta înseamnă exact 811 ani în urmă.

Iubesc acest oraș, de fiecare dată când mă reîntorc acasă în Brașov sunt extrem de fericită, petrec ore în Piața sfatului pe la cafenele. Pe Republicii de asemenea, foarte populat de turiști și Brașoveni care se bucură de un pahar de vin sau un papanaș după ce au savurat o ciorba gătită în tihnă.

Ieri am fost în Brasov, azi sunt în Tilbury (Essex).

Când ați fost ultima dată în Brașov?

Tell Me About a Time When You Had to Deal With Conflict On the Job

crinamorpho

It’s your time to show them that you are the SUPERHERO of the story.


I can’t agree with the recruitment process some companies are using. With this question, the interviewer wants to understand if you are the Superman, Superwoman they need in their company.

Here are some examples


”When I started work in my previous role, I was keen (desperate) to make a positive impression. During the first team meeting I attended, I started putting forward some ideas that would help the team, but a senior member of staff kept talking over me. He was dismissive of my suggestions.
Whilst, I do not like conflict, I believe it needs to be sorted out quickly for the sake of the team. I saw it as my responsibility to try and resolve the conflict and to build a good relationship.


HERE IS THE SUPERHERO in action. After the meeting, I went over to speak to him in private. I calmly asked him if I had done anything to upset him. I said I could not understand why he kept talking over me during the meeting. I went on to explain that I was here to help the team and that I wanted to learn from other people more experienced than me, such as himself.
The result is that he appeared shocked that I had challenged him about the conflict, and he apologized for coming across the way he had done during the meeting.


Do you wanna hire a fictional character or a human being?
This question should be rephrased or cancelled from the recruitment list of all these employers. Why should I share my past and personal experience with someone I do not know. NONSENSE.


What if, instead of asking that question, you ask the individual, what is the best way to solve a conflict?

Pure Kindness

crinamorpho

Kindness is grace.

Kindness comes from the Old English word ‘kyndnes’ meaning ‘nation’ or ‘produce, increase’. The word is further derived from the Middle English word ‘kindenes’ meaning ‘noble deeds’ or ‘courtesy’. The first recorded use of the word kindness was in the 14th century.

We are humans, and therefore, we make mistakes. We can be kind in our response to ourselves and others when those mistakes occur. This means thinking before speaking, forgiving before seeking revenge, isn’t this a verse from the bible?

Kindness is — and always will be — one of the most beautiful acts for good that exists in the entire world. But remember being kind is a choice we all make as individuals.

If you are a parent you might consider teaching your baby pure kindness from an early age. Encouraging kindness in the early grades helps children increases happiness and decreases stress. 

The book Happy Hippo and Kind Goose can be a perfect tool for your kids to understand the values of being kind, having a good friendship and happiness comes as a gift.

Child neglect

crinamorpho

If a baby is malnourished, neural cells can become weak or damaged and this can cause lowered brain function. If a child has little interaction with their caregiver, it can change how emotional and verbal pathways develop and impact their ability to learn. This may have consequences for brain functioning in later life.

Our brains develop from before birth and into adulthood

What happens in a child or young person’s life during these periods can have a significant effect on their brain development.

Positive experiences throughout childhood help to build healthy brains, while experiencing childhood trauma and abuse can harm a child’s brain development (Shonkoff et al, 2015)

Happy 2022

“Kindness, kindness, kindness.

I want to make a New year’s prayer, not a resolution. I’m praying for courage.”
― Susan Sontag

I do not believe in the famous saying ”new year, new me” you know why? Oh well, because nothing can be new about us, we are still the same we were 1 day ago, on the 31st of December. 24 hours can’t make you all new.
We are getting too excited about the 1st of January, full of ideas thinking that this year will be different in a good, better way. But wait 1 minute, HOW?


Why a new year can give us a bag full of inspiration, ideas, excitement, and a new notebook to write in!?
We do forget something, planning our year with Jesus, our God. Being more Thankful, praying more often, and writing our new plans, ideas, challenge for the new year in god’s notebook.
Let’s not disappoint ourselves with our new year, new me by trying very hard and then at the end of the year to get depressed. Be wise and smart!
Start your morning with a prayer, and coffee/tea then everything will settle down.
