May 29, 2007
Here are my activities i really enjoy
I like playing game so much ( the kind of adventure ).
I like seeing a movie ( the kind of investigation )
I like giving advice to others because i have read alot of books since i was child. Each books all relate to self-improvement and management;anyway, in the meaning of each books always prove me advice and the theory of the famous person in the world such as Napoleon and so on...., which show me how to be an effective manager or a good person. And what i like the most are the advice and the the theory of the famous person. Other activity is discussing or working as a group. i like working as a group or discussing with my friends, especially when my teacher give us a topic or do research about something. i reallly like this activity. Moreover, i'm good at speaking. i speak alot when i stay at home or with my family, but when i'm with others beside my family or my close friends i seldom speak, espicially when i'm at school, i seldom speak to others, so my classmate or my teacher consider me as a gentle student in the class; anyway, when i have a presentation or stand in front of others, i'm always afraid to speak to them, but i can do it well or get the high score anyway. Regarding to my goal, i want to be a manager, but i don't konw what kind of manager i should be because of many kinds of mananger such as hotel and resturant manger, office manager, marking manager etc...;moreover, i want to join conference, workshop or meeting, or i can work at abroad. In brief, i myself want to have reputation, a good position in society espicially i want to be a good manager that make an contritubtion or share what i have to others espicially in my career in order to get better. So could you tell me what kind of manager i should be or subject that i have to choose to study.
I hope you can give me a good idea

Answer
It is good that you are able to write down many of the things you enjoy doing, your skills, and what you would like to do.
Reading books is a strong skill and a way to greatly increase your knowledge. Reading about how others lived their lives can be inspiring.
In order to advance in a job to become a manager, it is good to have presentation skills. Even if you feel nervous giving talks and presentations, learning to do that effectively is important. It is good to take a course in presentation and speaking to help you.
Taking courses in business and business administration will help you become a manager. But you usually will need to work your way up in a specific company or business in order to become a manager. You really should enjoy the business activity for you to be an effective manager in it.
Although becoming a manager is a long-range goal, you really need to decide on a skill and area of work. It has to be an area that you enjoy and even love. What is your very favorite class? What jobs relates to working in that area?
For example, a person who wanted to be a hotel manager should really be interested in the hospitality business along with all the behind-the-scenes activities in running a hotel.
A good idea is to think of manager jobs you might be interested in and getting a chance to talk to managers in those fields. Often they would be glad to explain what they do and how they got their jobs and such. It is almost like reading a success book, except you are talking to real people. But note that it is sometimes scary to approach such people. So start near home.
Keep your list.
Update it.
Divide it into three sections: what you like to do, what you are good at, and jobs you might want to get.
I hope these ideas help.

Hello Sir,
Recently i came across breakoff with my girl friend. In our relationship for last 3 yrs life was really bitter for me. As i have problem trusting her. It was because of some various unwanted situation which i came across. Now everything is finish and i have lost many of my close friend because of this relationship.

Answer
Breaking up with someone you have been going with for a while is difficult. But now it is time to learn from the experience and move in with your life. If your problem trusting her was because of things she did, then it is good you finally parted. But if it was because you were jealous, then that is a trait you must control, or it will ruin other relationships.
It will take time to win back your friends. But you should contact them and apologize for drifting apart. Ask if you can see them again and make amends.
Although it is nice if you can break up with a girlfriend in a friendly manner, it seldom works that way. Someone will always be hurt. Also, being friends with an ex-girlfriend only works if you slowly drifted apart. Be friendly, but do not expect to be friends again.
I hope you will be able to renew your old friendships. It will never be the same, but you can try to get back with them. Also, you can start moving on with your activities and enjoying life again.
