Sallam Doostane Doreh,

Happy Monday! I know you're looking forward to this thursday as one of our dorehees recommended for doreh slogan:

"So what else are you going to do on a thursday!" :)

This thursday Fariba Mehranfar will continue her talk on "Psychology of Achievement" by "Brian Tracy". In part one we learned about Building a Positive Self-Concept. On thursday, she will focus on "Superior Human Relations". I will attach Fariba's email which contains more details about her topic.

Thanks Fariba for putting this together. Please read on to get the address. Shahram, thanks for volunteering :)

Psychology of achievement includes the following topics:

• Building a Positive Self-Concept
• Accepting responsibility and taking charge of your life
• Programming for success
• Goal setting and goal achieving
• Creative problem solving and decision making
• Superior human relations

Above 6 items are considered to be the 6 keys to personal power.

I have already talked about topic number 1, Building a Positive Self-Concept, in previous sessions. This week I am going to talk about topic number 6, Superior human relations.

In summary, this topic includes the following discussions:

a. Correct way(s) to impress other people

b. How to make friends and be friend

c. What is a healthy personality

• 4. How do the following behaviors effect people around us:
  • Smile
  • Approval
  • Admiration
  • Critisizem
  • Attention (Good ways of listening to others)
• 5. Problems with todays relationships and how should we handle it:
  • Lack of commitment
  • Changing the other person
  • Jealousy
  • Self pity
  • Negative expectations
  • Incompatibility
• 6. Basic principals of relationship
  • Similar self-concept attract
  • Liking and respecting is more important than LOVE
  • Opposite attract, but only in temperament
  • Same values
• 7. Role of parenting
  • Make your love unconditional
  • Physical Contact (holding, caressing)
  • Eye contact
  • Focused attention
• 8. Others

*** I will talk about all these topics (or some as time allows) I hope it helps me and you both when we discuss it.

- The information that I will be presenting to you is all based on what I have learned from tapes, books and seminars by a very well-respected, well-known psychologist named "Brian Tracy".

(I have not attended his seminars, but I have listened to his tapes and have read some of his books)

Thanks

Fariba
