Despite the preponderance of video devices that are proliferating everywhere and the popularity of YouTube, I much prefer to use a still camera to capture and record my memories. They say “a picture is worth a thousand words,” which is true. But a picture also trumps the overused and lengthy videos that people shoot, collect and try to entice you to watch. Photographs are much more meaningful. They capture a moment in time and give you the ability to study and imagine what it must have been like at that particular moment. A friend who is a portrait photographer in Berkshire says that good photography is about honing your intuition and to correctly anticipate an event.
Although videos have their place in society and are entertaining and useful in small doses, a few carefully selected photographs can span a moment or a lifetime. They are compact, but filled with richness. I never go anywhere without my camera. And yes, although my phone has a built-in device for capturing photos, I much prefer a full-featured, stand-along camera that can provide me with a large enough file to crop and enlarge and share with family and friends. I still have my 35mm equipment, which I treasure. But unfortunately that era is gone. So it’s now digital all the way. |

There are many aspiring actors and actresses and not all of them make it to the lime light. I have a friend who is like that she has even decided to major in theater so that she can be more credible which a very smart idea is. She loves her classes and we have noticed an improvement in her acting which is tremendous. One time she tried auditioning for a major play but she was not taken. This depressed her a lot and we looked for ways of cheering her up. As I was surfing through the internet I read somewhere that a good iron smith can easily make the star that resembles the star of fame. So we decided to order one of her as a gift for her. It was a good example of gifts for friends. So we had the iron smith write her name on the star and had it delivered to her. When she got it, we all knew it because her moods lightened up and she was very ecstatic because of the same. |

Coaching can be done by many different people. You can manage to do coaching yourself if the field in question is familiar to you. There are those who get income from training sessions they offer, but if you follow keenly they do not have the right documents which show they have been trained in this field and they are qualified to give you training sessions. As for leadership coaching, you will have no other choice but to seek a professional coach who knows what they are doing and they are in fact qualified for the job. If not, you may end up spending money for a training session that was not even helpful at all. For most leadership certificates, the government has to approve of them and if yours was given by a trainer who is not registered under the law, then the whole session will have been in vain. You need to receive the right leadership coaching from the right trainer, so that the legal document you will hold after the sessions are complete will be recognized by the government and you will have gained from the sessions your self. |
