It’s decided: decisive people no more accurate than self-doubters。

Research finds only difference between so-called action-oriented and state-oriented people is confidence

By Nicola Davis

It’s a trait best seen in the eager pub quizzer – a tendency to leap to an answer without a shadow of a doubt.

Now researchers have suggested that while people who have little difficulty making decisions are more confident in their choices, they are no more accurate than those who feel more torn.

Writing in the journal Plos One, researchers revealed how they conducted experiments to explore potential differences between people who tend to be decisive, known as action-oriented people, and those who struggle to commit to a choice, known as state-oriented people.

“What we found is that confidence was the only thing that was different,” said Dr Wojciech Zajkowski, the first author of the research, who is now based at the Riken social decision science laboratory in Japan.

The #1 Fear of why people are affraid to speak English

Привет всем! 
Сегодня поговорим о путешествиях.
Все люди любят путешествовать.
Итак, вы приехали в русскоговорящую страну и вам нужно сориентироваться в незнакомой обстановке.
Как общаться с иностранным населением? 
Поговорим об аэропорте. 

Новые слова: 
Трап самолёта - a plane ladder;
Самолёт приземлился в аэропорту. - The plane landed at the airport.
Табло - a scoreboard
Рейс - a flight 
Номер рейса - flight number
Багажная лента - a luggage tape;
ТаксОметр - a taximeter;
Пункт обмена (денег) - (money) exchange office; 
Выход на парковку - an exit to parking

Новые фразы: 
Как обратиться к незнакомому человеку, чтобы что-то у него спросить? 
1 вариант: "Извините за беспокойство!"
2 вариант: "Будьте добры!"
3 вариант: "Скажите, пожалуйста!"

Итак, можно задать вопрос так: 
"Скажите, пожалуйста, где я могу найти свой багаж? Мой рейс номер  _______."

Когда вы не можете найти свой багаж: "Извините, я не вижу свой багаж! Или я не могу найти свой багаж! Вы можете мне помочь?"

Если вы хотите обменять свои деньги на рубли: "Извините за беспокойство, где я могу обменять доллары на рубли?"

Как говорить с таксистом? 
"Добрый день! Сколько будет стоить доехать до отеля Черемушки?"

Попросите таксиста помочь вам с багажом: 
"Помогите, пожалуйста, положить багаж в багажник." 
Багажник - это место для багажа в машине. 

Когда вы сядете в такси, будьте внимательны и спросите: "Извините, вы включили таксОметр?"

Хорошей вам поездки!

 Great Claus and Little Claus - LEARN ENGLISH WITH STORY 

Are you feeling a knot of anxiety in your stomach every time company news breaks? Are you worried about potential layoffs or restructuring? Job insecurity can be a real drag on your well-being and career growth. I understand your concerns. Here are some key signs to watch for that might indicate it's time to explore new opportunities:

Is your company experiencing constant downsizing, hiring freezes, or departmental mergers? These frequent changes can create a stressful atmosphere and signal potential instability.

Does your manager avoid discussing future goals or your role in the company's direction? A lack of transparency regarding career paths and long-term plans can be a red flag.

Are there limited opportunities for professional development? Is there a culture of stagnation and a lack of encouragement for upskilling or reskilling? A dead-end job can hinder your long-term career aspirations.

Do you feel underutilized or constantly passed over for challenging projects? Is your skillset not being leveraged effectively? Feeling undervalued can be demotivating and impact your sense of purpose.

Is your job impacting your mental or physical health? Are you experiencing burnout, anxiety, or decreased work-life balance? Prioritizing your well-being is crucial, and a toxic work environment might require a change.

 Leaving a job is a significant decision.  Before making the leap, consider:

Do you have an emergency fund to cover expenses during a job search?
Research current trends and opportunities in your field.
What kind of work environment and opportunities do you seek?
