Important Skills to Succeed in Modern World

Today, I’d like to write about my idea of skills that a person should have in order to succeed in the modern world.

First, communicating skills are important. It means that not only they should be able to speak some languages, but also they should be good at talking or listening. Although, now, it is often said that English skills are the most important, it is not enough. Without talking and listening skills, you cannot be good at communicate with someone from all over the world. In other words, the important communicating skills are not just to be able to speak many languages, but also to be good at talking and listening.

Second, the courtesy is important. In my opinion, even if you can communicate with many people, you cannot be succeed in the modern world without any manners. However, if you are polite, you are looked as a good person and you finally win the confidence. To be regarded as a reliable person is another important factor of getting along with many people. In short, the manner is as important as communication skills.

In conclusion, you should acquire so many skills if you want to succeed in the modern world. Globalization is going on now, and more and more people work over some countries. It seems to be difficult to make good relationship with many people from all over the world, but these skills are also important when you do it in Japan.

Does technology help our communication in family?

Today, our lives become more comfortable with development of technology. However, I disagree with the idea that technology helps us a better communication in family. Let me talk about why I think so.

First, many elders cannot master how to use technologies effectively. For example, my parents don't use smart phone still now. Moreover, they are not used to using e-mail to tell what they think correctly. For instance, I sometimes feel uncomfortable when I read some mail from my parents. Sometimes my mother misunderstood what I wanted to say in my e-mail and she became angry. This problem rarely occer with my frends, so this idea only apply to the communication with my family. In short, it is difficult for me to communicate with my family by using technologies, especially with my parents.

Second, I should value face-to-face communication with my family. If I always communicate with my family on e-mail or LINE, I think I don’t talk so much with my family at home. It means, I don’t have to talk with my family if I depend too much on e-mail or LINE. Of course, it is useful to use them, but in my case, I can see my family every day, so I should communicate with them face to face. In other words, technology make me drift away from face to face communication.

In conclusion, I don’t think technology make our family relationship better. It is sure that technology is very useful, but I think we should concern about whether the person who we want to communicate with are good at using them or not.

How I relax and enjoy my weekend

Everyone want to enjoy their weekends. Many of them, however, cannot relax or enjoy their weekend because they are too busy to rest. Now, I have a part time job on every Saturday, but I know how I can relax and enjoy. Let me talk about that.

 

First, in the morning, get up at 8 o’clock. During the weekdays, I cannot sleep enough, so I always get up little late. After that, open all windows in your room and clean the room whichever the room is clean or not. Cleaning your room in the morning make you refreshed.

 

Second, in the afternoon, do what you want to do. In my case, I practice the guitar, read comics or draw some pictures. Then, go to the gym at 3 p.m. to exercise. Exercising make you tired, but after a-few-hours exercise you must feel refreshed. In addition, when you feel tired, you can sleep well at night. I usually stay there for 2 hours, and go back home. After that, take a bath before you eat dinner. Thanks for this, you can use more free time after the dinner.

Third, at night, talk with your family. During the weekdays, I am too busy to talk with my family. Therefore, I spend time with my family on weekend. You must be happy when you are with your family. Then, all what you have to do is to go to bed early!

 

In conclusion, this is my way to relax and enjoy on weekend. Put simply, you should do what you cannot do during the weekdays.
