Worth Noting:
- The cool and respectful person you are aware of for many days may tend to misbehave in public when he gets drank as alcohol has interfered with the normal functioning of his brain; do not fight hard to defend whatever could be said about his behaviour when drunk.
- Claiming you know him as a level headed person is applicable but when sober. It is not a surprise that if you met him after intoxication when you are dressed in unfamiliar manner to how he knows you he may too treat you the same way he has done to those complaining about him.
Even the simple act which we describe as ‘seeing someone we know’ is, to some extent, an intellectual process. We pack the physical outline of the creature we see with all the ideas we already formed about him, and in the complete picture of him which we compose in our minds those ideas have certainly the principal place.
In the end they come to fill out so completely the curve of his cheeks, to follow so exactly the line of his nose, they blend so harmoniously in the sound of his voice that these seem to be no more than a transparent envelope, so that each time we see the face or hear the voice it is our own ideas of him which we recognize and to which we listen……………Marcel Proust, Swann’s Way.
Listening to young kids speak in some languages which you have trained them and also trained other adults but had proven hard for the latter to understand despite concerted efforts to train, you may wonder what is wrong with these adults.
If you are subjected to similar situations do not be surprised that you may find yourself in a similar situation that is being challenged by kids yet you are much focused in learning. Probably how you were initially formatted language wise will affect your ability to understand the new language. Should it be close in writing and pronunciation to the languages that you know you will have a simple time to understand them.
When you meet with someone and he fails to talk to you especially while in rush or in unfamiliar location do not be quick to judge him claiming that he has ignored you perhaps he may be absent minded, you may be dressed in a way that he cannot easily identify you. Be live to the fact that correctly identifying a person requires some soberness and concentration.

If you use a certain object or software yet you do not have an exact name that you use to refer to it do not be surprised that those you train with it may be asked in an interview whether they know about that specific object or software and reply no since the name provided to them is not familiar with them.
There are people who you meet for the first time and upon being introduced to them they take keen interest in you. You wonder why they have become friendly or hostile towards you but this is due to the stories they have heard about you in the past which they use as basis of judging you.
You may hear some of them wishing to enquire more about you. This is so when they have heard motivating stories about you so they wish to hear more about you as firsthand information whereas those who have got negative stories about you will try to avoid you at all cost no matter how good the deal you are offering to them is.
Whenever interacting with other people behave well. Whenever they see you, hear about you, think of you or someone related to you both by blood or lookalike they will be having a predetermined opinion based on your previous interactions with them.
