Why Rejection hurts so much - Growth Mindset

  Why does Rejection hurt so much? https://ideas.ted.com/why-rejection-hurts-so-much-and-what-to-do-about-it/ The one thing before reading the article I picked I had already confirmed one thing which I already knew was the pain of rejection. I had felt rejection myself in my life, for example, there was a job interview I had one time but I didn't end up getting the job because of a lack of a certain skill in a field and that is an example of rejection. There were a few things I had learned from reading this article, instead of being all negative about rejection and looking at it from a pessimistic point of view but we can see it from a positive side for example :  Think of it as a lesson learnt for next time Look at it as the glass half full and not half empty The things we can do to combat rejection are:  Have zero tolerance for self-criticism  Revive your self worth  Boost your feelings of connections One thing I am curious to explore is applying these exercis...

Class Assignments : My First Impressions

  Class Assignments: My Impressions  From what I read from what the class assignments are going to be like. I saw we are given weekly tasks to do and some core assignments for Multimedia Development 1. I like the idea of where you can do the assignments at any time. You can do all your tasks and assignments in one go or you can split it up day by day and you will have plenty more time to do things for assignments in college. The assignments I am intrigued by are the Unity3D tasks, this is something that is completely out of my comfort zone but I am willing to take on the challenges and the tasks at hand and learn more as I go on through the weeks to come.  Another thing that I love about this is the Blog comments and Twitter tasks, this can give us the opportunity to get to know one another and help each other out on certain topics. I love the interactive aspect of it where we can communicate.  I also love that they added the feature where if you feel like you are mi...

Time Strategies

 Time Strategies Time management in its simplest terms means, it is the process of planning and exercising conscious control of time spent on specific tasks,  especially to increase effectiveness, efficiency and productivity.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_management https://corporatefinanceinstitute.com/resources/careers/soft-skills/time-management-list-tips/ In my own opinion and doing my research, I have found some articles which I found quite interesting and quite inciteful.  One of the first articles I read was the one I found on the blog page on Trello.  Trello Article :  https://blog.trello.com/the-psychology-of-checklists-why-setting-small-goals-motivates-us-to-accomplish-bigger-things?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=linkedin&utm_campaign=checklists And in this article, they were explaining how you can use checklists, SMART Goals and using small bite-sized tasks to complete bigger projects. This article was quite useful and these methods wer...

Technology Tools

  Technology Tools  Seeing the technology tools that we will be using and the different types of technical skills we will be working on is honestly exciting.  There are a few tools that I am familiar with such as Blogger the tool that I am writing all my blogs in, there are also some that I find that is something out of my comfort zone such as Unity3D. I'm not much of a games developer but if I am able to learn the fundamentals of the software and make a basic but not too complicated game I feel like I would learn a lot from it. The tools that I am excited about using is Canvas, Spark and Cheezburger.   Mainly because this is used for graphics and one of my strong points is graphic design so  I am excited to see what these have to offer.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Spark   

Introduction to a Future Success

  Introduction to myself :)  This is me Nasim Slavotic :) Hello! My name is Nasim Slavotic, I am 20 years old and I am now a 2nd-year student in TUDublin Blanchardstown doing Creative Digital Media. I am from Dublin and I work part-time in my dad's butcher shop here in Blanchardstown in Coolmine near the post office.  What are my hobbies?  In my free time, I like to go to the gym. Also, I like to go out and take pictures with my camera and make videos on my Youtube channel (NaSiM101) which I took a break from for a while from the pandemic but I do love to brainstorm new ideas for videos and discover new trending things. I also love going out with my friends but now I am starting to go back out again since the pandemic had closed everything before but now everything is coming back to normal slowly but surely. When I'm bored I like to head on Photoshop and Illustrator and just make whatever comes in my mind.  https://pxhere.com/en/photo/1621191 Favourite Foods...

Growth Mindset

 Growth Mindset  The Growth Mindset means many different things to me such as growing :  Spiritually  Financially  Emotionally  Physically  Mentally  There are so many aspects within that allows us to grow and thats what I think that is a great thing about being human. Which is being able to grow and evolve into something bigger than what we already are. We are given a choice everyday to be able to better ourselves and thats what I think is a huge blessing. Here are few examples how you can evolve your growth mindset.  Physically  People can evolve physically by changing up their diet to be more healthier to add more fruits and vegetables, more lean meat , more water and being able to go to the gym for at least 3-5 times a week. This way you are not only taking care of yourself physically but you are also taking care of yourself mentally. Because when you workout and finish a workout you trigger a healthy dose of dopamine because you are...

My Favourite Game

 My Favourite Game  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_of_Duty:_Black_Ops_Cold_War   Call of Duty Black Ops : Cold War  One of my favourite games I enjoy playing is Call of Duty Black Ops : Cold War on the Playstation 4. One of the reasons why I enjoy playing this game is because I mainly grew up playing the classic Call of Duty games such as Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and 3   , Call of Duty Black Ops 1 and 2. I made the loads of memories playing these games and Cold War kind of brings back that nostalgic feeling of these games especially Black Ops 1 + 2. The Call of Duty games from 2009 up to 2015 where really amazing games but since 2016 it kind of went down hill in terms of how the games run , how the mechanics are made , the storyline and the multiplayer experiences. This game really hits home in some ways, not only do the mechanics in this game feel very realistic and it is quite competitive other than the previous games. They implemented a few old schoo...
