GOTW: Let's share some Advice!

Great Game Mahi,

Thanks Saira!

Spoilt Children - Well, the important thing is not to let them reach that stage.  Psychologists say that it's great to have children let their way once in awhile, but it's also important to assert your authority sometimes.  By not giving them 5 candies everyday, you're not being unfair or harsh, You're just being normal and doing what's best for the kid.

Now even if you have reach the stage when there children are spoiled, then positive or negative reinforcement should work really well.  Positive reinforcement - give them something they like when they do something good.  Negative reinforcement - take away a privilege when they're not listing to you or giving others hard time.

Advice on Friendship-:

People are jealous of others because they're insecure.  Jealousy doesn't get you anywhere and it doesn't help you either.  But being happy for other does help you and makes you a better person.  Instead of thinking why does she have what I don't have? Think that you will try harder the next time and get it for yourself.  The MOST important thing is that in order to go up you don't need to pull everyone else down.  Just go up yourself and you'll be on the top and stay there for longer!

Advice on unwanted criticism:

I really need advice on being patient myself... Although my temper is pretty much under control, I can be pretty impatient at times.

Ok, so how to control your temper - Drink a Cold glass of water! Really, it makes all the difference! Second thing you can do is go away from the place that made your temper go up!  Just going away from the person/place really helps and you'll be a bit less angry.  Think about something good - that will not only make you patient but also make you happy as well. Remember, Temper is the only thing you can't get rid of by losing it!

Anyway, confront the person and ask them what they're problem is. (In nicer terms...) Once you find out why they're acting in a certain way, try fixing it. If it still doesn't work, leave it and try to ignore it. There will be people like that out there, but just keep in mind that five to ten years from then, will all these squabbles really matter?

Thanks, Aish, and very nice advice!

I would say it's great to expand your friends circle.  Even if you don't like a particular type of people, it's no harm in having them as your friends unless there's something that really really bothers you.  I would say accept their friendship - you learn from people even those that are really different from you.  They may not end up in your Best Friends list but you'll have different friends and it will be meaningful.
