LANGUAGE BARRIERS in Personal Development
Language is a tradition that is almost as old as time. It is often used as the most common forms of communication, even since ancient times, where early cavemen talked to each other, first with a series of grunts and facial and body movements, and then developing later on to rudimentary alphabets and phrases, and continuing to develop on the same level as civilization flourished. 59

Self Confidence
How To Build Your
Self Confidence LEARN TO ACCEPT YOURSELF
T
he very first step is to accept yourself – lovingly. No person in the world in perfect so why bother and shed tears over your imperfectness. We might have something that someone else may lack and someone else might be endowed with the qualities, which we lack. This incompleteness makes us go out and seek companions who make us feel loved, wanted and complete. Oh what a great feeling! Would we experience it if we were inside the cocoon of our perfection? Never! So accept yourself the way you are. It will free your mind of a heavy baggage of unnecessary worries. You will instantly feel light and cheerful.
