During the winter vacation I went on a trip, that was wonderful because I tried something I have never experienced before. One morning when we were walking along the beach, enjoyed sunshine, someone strongly advised that we went water skiing. However, we didn’t dare to face the challenge because that seemed dangerous to do it. My friends all encouraged me, so I finally joined in them. At last, I couldn’t stop screaming in fright. Later I felt that it was an amazement filling with fun. From an experience I learned that we should be brave enough to try something new. Only in this way we find a better self to meet any challenge.

If you need to interview someone for an article but you have never interviewed before, it can be frightening. Here are some tips for preparing for and conducting a successful interview.
1. If the person is a known author or speaker, take the time to read or listened to his/her work, or at least get familiar with his/her most recent or most important work. If the interview will cover events, review whatever is known publicly about those events..
Being a recording device(录音设备). You can use your phone or an audio recorder. In this way you needn’t struggle to write things down. 2. And this will make it easier to include direct quotes when you start writing.
Remember to make it a conversation rather than a list of questions. Prepared questions are just a guideline. 3.. You can also try to ask your interviewee about his/her personal thoughts and reactions to events and people they deal with.
Appropriate feedback(反馈) is also important. Feel free to say words that show you are listening, like “yeah” and “Mmmm”. 4. You can also give more facial feedback like smiling.
5. If the interviewee changes suddenly from one line of thought to another, lead them back to the area you are focusing on. Guide the interview but don’t keep interrupting with many questions.
A. Politely ask if you can interview them.
B. Do your homework before you pick up the phone.
C. Then you can focus all your attention on the interview.
D. Consider how all the questions can be asked in a short time.
E. Nodding your head can be an encouragement to the interviewee.
F. In order to get the information you need, you should guide the interview.
G. You can try to ask questions based on what they have said to you in previous responses.
Have you ever been faced with trying to stay positive when others around you are negative? A negative person can bring you down and throw your positive plans out of the window. Whether you deal with a family member, friend or co-worker who is negative, there are things you can do to remain positive in the face of negativity?
Whatever you do, don’t argue with a negative person. Arguing only adds fuel to the fire. I have noticed when my children are crabby, it is best to avoid trying to convince them to analyze and adjust their attitude. As soon as I take the approach of being in opposition to them, the situation gets worse before it gets better. Sometimes the best thing to do is remain silent and let negativity pass.
You know how difficult it can be to give love and positive attention to negative people. Unfortunately, that is often exactly what they need. A negative person is usually afraid he is unlovable. How do you show love when someone is negative? You must listen to what he is trying to tell you. Acknowledge the feelings he has by saying something like, “You sound very angry right now.” How might you help a negative person? Offer a hug even if you get rejected. A negative person often has difficulty accepting love from others.
If you have negative people on your life who are affecting your mental and physical health, you need to decide whether or not you want these people in your life. Some people are so negative that you have no other choice but to remove them from your life. However, some people, such as your children, are difficult to remove from your life, in this case, professional counseling(咨询) may be the answer.
