Why Accepting Change Is Important to Your Professional Success?
Whether you like it or not, change is a necessary part of today's business climate. Those employees who accept change will succeed, while those fearing change may head for the unemployment line. So how can we make this normal change as positive and beneficial as possible?
What's wrong with change?
Employers want their workers to change when necessary. The main reason is fear, though none of us agree that we doubt our ability to accept new ideas, use new technology, or adapt to new organizations.
Employees often view change differently from their supervisors. This is why communication is so vital in many cases. Lack of communication will cause problems in personal relationships. Unfortunately, fear prevents them from expressing their ideas and opinions.
The positive side of change.
One of the most positive aspects of change is that it is never boring. If we want passion back in our work, we must be willing to change. We can learn how to work with a team and take on new responsibilities and change not just your attitude to change but some of your ideas and goals.
Embrace upcoming changes.
Many people are content to live their present safe lives and want no change. Comfort and high position? If those are what you desire, then you will probably soon be out of a job. If, instead, you want challenge and welcome change, you will always be successful and popular in your job.
The art of growing dwarf trees, or "bonsai"(盆景) as their Japanese planters call them, is increasing in popularity in the United States. Growing bonsai can make a fascinating hobby for anyone who enjoys plants and creating beautiful effects with them.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}.
In growing bonsai, in fact, one must be careful in choosing the type of tree, as the growing conditions are unusual.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}.Varieties of pines with small needles and hardwood trunks are especially suitable.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#}This is necessary because the major growth of bonsai is kept confined(被限制) to the tree's trunk and leaves, not its root system-a process quite unlike what is done with other plants.
Another thing the bonsai-grower must do is to trim (修整) the roots and branches of the tree periodically (定期地). Unless this is done, the plants will not have the proper proportions(比例) and will look unnatural.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}
The last thing one must do is to be careful to keep the tree well-watered. Because bonsai are grown in smaller-than-usual containers, they often need more water than ordinary houseplants do.
As can be seen from the above, the art of bonsai-growing is one which requires a certain amount of time and effort.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}Imagine having such a tree in your living room and passing it down through several generations of your family. That is exactly what bonsai-growing is all about: establishing a tradition of beauty which lasts for years and years and is a symbol of the beauties of the natural world.
A. Then one must be careful in choosing the size of the container. B. How can we meet the goal of making such a kind of art? C. Why do so many people take a fancy to the art of bonsai-growing. D. But one must get well prepared before starting bonsai-growing. E. The satisfactions that growing bonsai brings can be great, however. F. The ideal for bonsai plants are trees just like normal trees in everything but size. G. Not all species of trees can be made into bonsai. |
A. Eat Healthy Portion Sizes B. Switch to Healthy Whole Grains C. The secret to healthy shopping is to plan ahead D. The changes they make end up being short term E. Avoid boiling vegetables until they're drained of colour F. Limit your nutritional intake will only make you feel tired G. We should form the habit of preparing meals from unprocessed foods |
Many people who struggle with their health or weight say they've tried every diet or food plan under the sun, without any long-term success. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Their old eating habits soon return, leaving them disheartened and frustrated. The key to success lies in developing healthy eating habits. Here are a few eating habits that you should follow.
①Eat Healthy Unprocessed Food. Many of the packaged foods we buy today are aimed at convenience but they're not that healthy. They often contain high amounts of preservatives, man-made colourings and other added chemicals. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.
②{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Whole grains offer far more nutrients and fibre than their refined "white" varieties. On the taste side, whole grains have more texture, flavour and nuttiness than refined ones. It is a fast and simple way to improve your eating habits.
③Change to Healthy Cooking Methods. The more you "do" to your food, the less it does for you. So avoid things like deep-frying, which drenches your food in unnecessary calories. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. This will sap them of nutrients.
④Plan Your Healthy Shopping. It's too easy to eat takeaway if there's nothing in the fridge or put together something naughty when it's filled with unhealthy foods. But if your fridge and pantry are stocked with healthy options you'll be able to make better choices when you're hungry. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.
