Когато се замисля за някои неща, които българите правим различно от всички останали, започвам да осъзнавам колко странни изглеждаме всъщност. Затова днес реших да говоря по тази тема или - Колко странни са българите всъщност? 🥴

Job Interview / An Important Event Preparation - How To Boost Your Confidence and Productivity?


How many times have you felt insecure about yourself? A lack of confidence often can’t be seen from the outside, but it can create a mental burden that is hard to carry. 

To lift this weight off your shoulders and become more confident, you must deal with what’s on your mind and learn how to accept yourself.


One way to achieve this is to use positive affirmations for confidence.

Affirmations are short, positive statements that reinforce your beliefs or combat negative feelings. They can be spoken aloud or printed on cards to read when you need a boost. There are a lot of ways to use them, and it ultimately depends on your individual needs.

Why Affirmations Are Important for Confidence

People tend to look at themselves negatively. Unfortunately, many people feel like they aren’t good enough or like they can’t do something they’ve wanted to do for a long time. This isn’t just a problem for children and teenagers; lack of confidence can start early and continue through adulthood.

Identifying a lack of confidence is often challenging because it’s typically not something you can see from the outside. In most cases, it feels like a crippling weight that prevents your true personality from showing.

If that burden becomes too heavy, the lack of confidence can trigger some physical issues. Anxiety, shortness of breath, stress, sweating, and other symptoms can often be traced back to feelings of insecurity.

Listen to the podcast to be inspired to use positive affirmations daily. It helps people all over the world to feel more confident, at ease with themselves, to feel excited about life...

If you are preparing for an important meeting that will be held in English or fear of speaking to your partners / colleagues / clients - book a class with me so we can find practical soutions now.

To Your Success,
Anatoly

暗い暗い夜が 風呂敷のような影をひろげて
野原や森を包みにやって来ましたが、
雪はあまり白いので、包んでも包んでも
白く浮びあがっていました。
親子の銀狐は洞穴から出ました。子供の方は
お母さんのお腹の下へはいりこんで、
そこからまんまるな目をぱちぱちさせながら、
あっちやこっちを見ながら歩いて行きました。
やがて行手に ぽっつり あかりが一つ
見え始めました。それを子供の狐がみつけて、
「母ちゃん、お星さまは、
　あんな低いところにも落ちてるのねえ」
とききました。
「あれはお星さまじゃないのよ」
と言って、その時 母さん狐の足は
すくんでしまいました。
「あれは町の灯なんだよ」

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天继续和大家聊一聊一些有趣的颜色短语。颜色我们一般用“深”和“浅”来形容。例如，浅蓝色，light blue，深蓝色，dark blue。如果一件衣服的颜色很多，或者很亮，我们可以说这件衣服颜色很鲜艳。“给点儿颜色看看”你知道是什么意思吗？它的意思是“让对方知道你的厉害，使对方感到害怕。”例如“他总是欺负我的好朋友，今天我要给他点儿颜色看看。”
我们来看看黑色有什么有意思的用法。第一个，黑心，一个人的心是黑色的，说明他的心很坏。例如“他是一个黑心商人，为了赚钱竟然卖过期的食品。”第二个，黑车。黑车不只是黑色的车，还有一个意思是“不合法经营的出租车”。如果一个人不小心上了黑车，那是很危险的。第三个，“拉黑”，拉到黑名单。如果你的微信上有一个朋友，你不想再收到他的信息，那你可以把他拉黑。最后一个，“黑脸”。如果我们说：“他黑着脸”，意思是他很不高兴。
接着我们来看看白色。第一个，小白，我们说一个人是小白，意思是他没有经验。例如“我刚接触这个工作，还是个小白，要向各位多多学习。”第二个，“白”加动词或者形容词。例如，“我去他公司找他，结果他不在，我白跑一趟了。”“本来以为他能陪我过生日，结果他要加班，我白高兴一场。这里的“白”是没有结果的意思。
哪个用法你觉得最有意思呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
