Introduction




Ironically, but this post, which should be the first is actually the third here… So I have tried the system for my own and I think it’s really useful and fun. I hope that we well get ability to chat with our friends, who have their bloggers here too, and I will get more information about the most important things from them…

Profession I have chosen is so exciting, that I can’t believe that it is really happening to me…I’m talking about how interesting science can be… I never knew that it could be so fun going to classes or listening lectures. Now, I can spend hours listening about humans, relationships, our abilities and other things… I believe that having this kind of knowledge will help me in my future life, creating my own firm or in everyday life…

Making my English as good as possible I’m also creating my future. So now I am on my way, and I hope everything will succeed …

Emotional literacy



Emotional literacy

The ability to recognize, handle and appropriately express our emotions and feelings is what we call emotional literacy. Some of us are doing it better than others, but it is normal. It is not just because people react differently to the same thing, the reason is that some of them are better in working with computers, for example, and in this case, the others can easily express everything they want to.

Emotional literacy is necessary even in the childhood, because kids must be developed in this way as well. If they were able to express their emotions or needs, they would have a high level of interpersonal skills, which are required in job. Understanding emotional literacy is a key helping young people develop self- esteem. Nevertheless, we should try to understand what kind of feelings and thoughts have our friends too.



In teamwork and in our private life it is important to feel safe, useful and understood. Moreover, we can not go far without love, support and other basic needs. Life will not be fulfilled without our friends, relatives or even neighbours, so we must treat them right that the feedback would be nice. I am not saying that the feelings we are shown must be just positive as happiness, love, appreciation, but the negatives too. We have to learn, how to show our anger, boredom or rejection without hurting others.

I have made some few tests about how good I am in expressing my emotions, but the results showed that I (as we all do) have a lot of space to perfection.
