    In a nutshell, here are seven-steps for an effective problem-solving process.

    1. Identify the issues.

    • Be clear about what the problem is.

    2. Understand everyone’s interests

     

    • This is a critical step that is usually missing.
    • Interests are the needs that you want satisfied by any given solution. We often ignore our true interests as we become attached to one particular solution.

     

    3. List the possible solutions (options)

    • This is the time to do some brainstorming. There may be lots of room for creativity.

    4. Evaluate the options.

    • What are the pluses and minuses? Honestly!

    5. Select an option or options.

    • What’s the best option, in the balance?

    6. Document the agreement(s).

    • Don’t rely on memory.
    • Writing it down will help you think through all the details and implications.

    7. Agree on contingencies, monitoring, and evaluation.

    • Conditions may change. Make contingency agreements about foreseeable future circumstances (If-then!).
    • How will you monitor compliance and follow-through?

    Beauty, they say, is in the eyes of the beholder, so is love. To love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer, but to suffer is to suffer. Falling in love is one of the best things a man could go through. Love is a selfless activity that involves going out of one’s way to see to the satisfaction of the other partner. Loving is a relative feeling that is strictly restricted to every individual.

    As earlier said, falling in love means different to different people with different partners at different times and seasons. Falling in love is a delicate essential of life that need to carefully considered before making the decision. People fall in love at first sight or built-up relationship. There is no rule of thumb to the perfect way people fall in love. It is rather imperative to know what works best for you before plunging into the pool of love.

    Mind you, there are things to put in check in order to fall in love;

    1. Communication: to constantly be in love with your partner, constant communication is key and cannot be compromised.
    2. Supporting and maintaining your partner’s interest: It is mindful of a partner to always be a support system to their partner’s desires, intentions and aspiration.
    3. Treating your partner with kindness: You should learn to have a kind and gentle heart towards your partner. Always be forgiving, forgetful of offence and mild at heart.
    4. Sharing experience: there are times conversation could get monotonous and live or past experience could spark a trickle of life into the conversation.

    Keeping these few tips can help you fall in love, factoring in your special personalities.

    The most important thing in any relationship is communication. Without communication, trust issues can develop. Without talking, you eventually lose touch with your significant other even when you live with them. It’s ironic really because there aren’t words to describe how important it is to communicate. Even something as simple as a well-timed question can save your relationship. Here are some powerful questions that could do just that.

    According to Joseph Hindy [LifeHacks] here are the best questions to ask in such a period.

    • What made you feel good about yourself today?
    • What has been making you feel alone and unworthy?
    • What have I done recently that helped you feel loved and appreciated?
    • What scares you about our relationship?
    • How much have you loved yourself lately?
    • What can I do better?
    • Is there anything we need to talk about?

    I hope this helps someone in need

  4. I believe you are talking about "deja vu". Have you been in a new place, but felt, as if you had been there before?

    I believe you are talking about “deja vu”.

    Have you been in a new place, but felt, as if you had been there before?

    Did you meet someone for the first time, but had the feeling that you have met him before?

    Have you been in a totally new situation, yet, felt it was familiar, and that you have experienced it in the past?

    Experiences like these are called deja vu.

    The term “deja vu”, originates from the French, meaning “already seen”, and describes the experience of feeling that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously.

    The experience of deja vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity. There is a strong sense that one has experienced, or have been in the same situation or place in the past.

    It is said that the experience of deja vu seems to be very common, and that 70% of people report having experienced it at least once in their lives.

    The term deja vu was first used by Emile Boirac (1851-1917), who was a French psychic researcher.

    Another big concern is about technologies replacing people and eliminating jobs. Most schools are adopting e-learning and other forms of artificial intelligence forms of as to meet up with their academic calendars.
    The biggest question is: will Artificial Intelligence take away jobs, leaving hundreds of people jobless?

    Work automation is estimated to threaten about 800 million jobs worldwide – but in return, it will create even more.
    The main point to keep in mind is that technology will replace tasks, but not the actual jobs. The development of technology is aimed at improving the work processes and making them more accurate, faster, and hassle-free.

    While technologies can replace people, who are doing mundane jobs, they also give the opportunity to learn new skills and apply them in the new digitized environment. So, the invasion of technology can be seen as a chance to re-organize the work processes and assign human talents to more sophisticated and complex tasks.

  6. This is a dicey question to answer about fat people; mostly, people with a round face, fist and wrist belong to the group of fat people. They are a very special kind of people.

    This is a dicey question to answer about fat people; mostly, people with a round face, fist and wrist belong to the group of fat people. They are a very special kind of people. But there are few facts about them I would like to mention. Being fat is something I really look forward to, but, the stress involved is not worthy of emulation.

    First, unapologetically, fat people do not like doing things that would inconvenient them. They are not cut-out for rigorous exercise and strenuous activity. They always like to be stationary and by inferring, kind of lazy. Reading is one of their parallel traits. They do not like to read

    Also, fat people are the lovable kind of humans. They know how to get people to do things they want. In business, a smart fat person makes a good salesman/woman. They know too well how to compel and make people do things they want.

    In conclusion, they love to eat. A fat person can do anything for his/her pleasure. They could go extra miles to ensure they are happy and healthy. In addition, fat people are very generous, they are not tight-fisted. These are the few things I can say about fat people.

    I responded to the initial query and I happen to face the same problem as you faced. It’s quite unfortunate that PeerBlock was not efficient anymore.

    I had to try out other solutions and the best use a proxy like BTGuard. It funnels all your BitTorrent traffic through another server, thus keeping your IP address hidden from anyone connecting to your BitTorrent swarm.

    Even if you’re downloading a torrent that’s being tracked, they’ll see BTGuard’s IP, not yours, and BTGuard doesn’t keep any logs of their service, meaning they won’t trace that IP address back to you.

    If you want to keep your browsing speed from being throttled, you can try enabling encryption in your BitTorrent client. If this doesn’t give you the desired result, BTGuard provides an encryption program along with its proxy service that can hide your traffic better than uTorrent and other clients, to ensure you don’t get throttled.

    These options are proven and have been tested over the past few days.

    First, you are creating a problem for them. They must always make conscious effort to maintain online security no matter how to insignificant their task online is.

    It’s bad if someone steals your password or credit card information, but a lot of people are a lot more apathetic about what they put on Facebook, their personal blog, or anywhere else.

    Your data is worth protecting, though, whether you think so or not. Not only does that data give companies and governments more power to track you, but it can make it easier for someone to steal your identity, even if it doesn’t seem like it. Plus, you never know where that data may end up one day, and who might see it (potential employers, for instance).

    Some stuff is more important, of course, but don’t let the little stuff slide just because you don’t think anyone will care. Somebody probably does.

    Stay Safe Online!..

    Oh well, I do not see a big deal in what comparison does to one, but, I have some reservations against it.

    The Writ has it that “…those that compare themselves are not wise…” A couple of years ago, I stumbled on a quote that reads “Do not try to be someone else, the best you would be is second fiddle to that person” Trying to compare yourself with others steals and kills the joy you have. I am not saying one should not have role models or mentors, do not get me wrong. The only challenge here is forgetting who you are as a result of comparing your life with others who are better positioned than you are. In choosing people to pattern your life after, it is imperative to be logical, thoughtful and clinical with your decision.

    Also, your personality is a big deal that should not be silenced when choosing to be a Warren Buffet or a Bill Gate. It is very important to consider your traits, characteristics and personalities when patterning one’s life with others. Do not do this blindly, it might get really messy if you do not consider your options before taking a plunge into comparing yourself with others.

    Let us start with the description of the players. Sancho plays for Dortmund, having been promoted from the academy of Manchester City. He is a very clinical winger, who knows how to make assists, run into defenders, make successful take-ons, score goals as well, and very pacy. I strongly believe the fast style of play of City would fit him and step up his game. Playing for Dortmund cannot be compared to playing in the EPL, regardless, we cannot rule Sancho being a success at any EPL team. Coutinho, on the other hand, has proven to be a success at Liverpool. He was very instrumental in Klopp’s squad. His freekick, R2 shots, passes, moves, dribbles were what caught the eye of Barcelone to make over 70 million pounds move for him. Coutinho has not been able to adapt to life in Barcelona. I believe he was not given the time he needed to settle into Barce kind of play. As a result, he got loaned to Bayern Munich, which he still struggles to fit in. These guys are the headline of transfer news in the world of football.

    Reports have it that Chelsea wants to sign both players in the summer. Chelsea is trying to build a team from scratch. With their new acquired Ziyach, I think Coutinho would fit into Chelsea more because the team need a creative midfielder, which I believe Coutinho is the answer to. A 75million pounds proposed move of Coutinho to Chelsea is being criticized as a result of the pandemic.

    Sancho could either move to Chelsea or Manchester United for a record fee definitely. I think he would be needed more at United than Chelsea who I do not see benching their highly-rated Hudson-Odoi and Pulisic. So, United would be a suitable option for Sancho.
