HOW CAN I BATTLE MY NEGATIVE THINKING

  When you stop comparing yourself to others, you can accomplish great things, says wheelchair athlete Dean Furness. He shares how, after losing the use of his legs in an accident, he discovered a powerful new mindset focused on redefining his "personal average" and getting better little by little. I’ve lived most of my life comparing myself to others. At first, it was school and sports. But as I got older, I began comparing other metrics: job title, income level, house size, and worldly successes. The funny thing is, this is what most of us do at one time or another — and some of us do pretty often. It’s a sure-fire recipe for a drop in self-confidence and for unhappiness. It’s also not that useful. Next, I want to say something about me. When I was a child, I would run around the house in fear looking for my parents, but not looking closely enough to find that they were upstairs, or in the kitchen. I realize now that I never learned from those mistakes. I never looked harde

  TMA#1 Activity 1.8 Blog post     Algorithms in programming     What is an Algorithm?     An algorithm is a set of step by step instructions for solving a problem to achieve a result’. Algorithms    are especially important to computers because computers are general purpose machines for solving  problems. In order for a computer to be useful, we must give it a problem to solve and a technique for solving the problem. How does the algorithm in programming make working so easy?   The subject field of algorithms has grown so deep and wide that the theories and the basics that are laid down will help us attack any computational problem. There are so many efficient algorithms that are already published like binary search,  bubble sort , insertion sort,  merge sort ,  quick sort , Euclid’s algorithms to find the GCM,  Prim’s algorithms   to find the shortest path in the graph, etc. There are so many kinds of algorithms like – Brute force algorithms Which are straightforward trial and

Do you ever struggle with your negative thinking?                                        If you have a harsh inner critic or get caught in  worry, stress, anxiety, depressionor wrestle   with low self-worth, then you know some of the symptoms first hand.    Negative thinking patterns can have a strong and sometimes devastating impact on our relationships, our health, our work and our lives.                           How can you deal with negative thoughts? One way to deal with negative thoughts is to replace them with thoughts that make you feel  better. Let's say you just learned that you have a health problem. You might tell yourself  "My life will never be the way it used to be" or "This is the beginning of the end for me." That will probably make you feel pretty bad-and it will make your body weaker, just when you need it to be strong.            What else can you do to feel more positive? Sometimes negative thoughts are connected  to the way you live from d
