I think I have trouble with reading a book. Sometimes I did not understand complex sentences so I spent a lot of time for understanding sentences not whole story. Therefore, I could not understand whole story because concentrating only sentences p However, I found best way reading a book since ever midterm. I read the book two times. First, I read the book without dictionary and just circle word which I had not known. I also underline important sentence. Second, I concentrate on words. I search words and summarize story chapter by chapter. In addition, I have trouble with writing. I have to think logically. I have plans about next week.

reading reflection

I read an article about relationship between with people around me. According to “10 ways to Lose All Your Friends”, written by Jeff Haden (April 12, 2014), 10 ways or behaviors to lose friends exist. Firstly, you thoughtlessly waste other people’s time. Secondly, you ignore people outside your “level.” Thirdly, you ask for too much. Fourthly, you ignore people in genuine need. Fifthly, you ask a question so you can talk. Sixthly, you pull a “Do you know who I am?” Seventhly, you don’t dial it back. Eighthly, you mistake self-deprecation for permission. Ninthly, you humblebrag. Humblebrag is form that people brag their ability or good point without appearing of humility. Finally, you push your opinions.

This article’s title was interesting so I chose this article. It is a creative title. It attracted me. I think the first, second and tenth are worst. I often see people who waste other people’s time. I actually seem to this person. These people usually late an appointment or meeting. Nobody likes to wait someone in appointment.  I think second way is underestimating someone. I hate this behavior so I always be careful in this behavior. In conclusion, I think this article give advices how to success in interpersonal relation.

Time is money

I like a proverb because it gives me lesson. I remember the proverb: “Time is money.” This proverb means time is precious because time is never stops and it always passes. Everyone knows time can’t stop also passes quickly while we waste time. These days, I usually waste time because I do procrastination. Sometimes I can’t believe how quickly the time has gone. I made a goal about management of time. In addition, I wrote proverbs which contain importance of time on diary.

 I like another proverb. There is “A trouble shared is a trouble halved.” It means that if you have worry or trouble about something, it is better to share your worries instead of keep worries in your mind. I believe this proverb. When I’m sad, I can’t control my feeling so I get depression more and more. Moreover, I can’t overcome depression by myself. I usually share my problems with my family and friends. They understand me and give me advice. They always console me so I always get cheer and overcome depression. This proverb is true.

I think old proverb always true and give modern people lesson and learning. I believe we can learn more precious value from proverb.
