من استعداد ندارم I have no talent!!

من استعداد ندارم
استعداد الزاما به مفهوم خلق يك شاهكار هنري نيست . توجه نشان دادن به ديگران
هم يك استعداد است . آموختن و پرسش نيكو هم يك استعداد است حل مسئله ، مديريت و فرزند پروري هم ، استعداد است . متاسفانه ما غالبا استعدادهاي خود را دست كم مي گيريم . احساس رضايت خاطر ، از تكامل يافتن استعدادهاي خدادادي خود شما بدست مي آيد و نه از حسرت خوردن بر استعدادهاي ديگران . اكثر كساني كه خود را بي استعداد مي دانند هرگز كارهاي مختلف را امتحان نكرده اند . لازم به ذكر است كه استعداد اگر چه مفيد است و بزرگترين نعمت خدادادي است ولي همه چيز نيست . وقتي مردم درباره موفقيتهاي يك ورزشكار حرف مي زنند غالبا از استعدادهاي خارق العاده او سخن مي گويند . اما وقتي پاي صحبت خود آن قهرمان مي نشينيم ، او از تمرين هاي خستگي ناپذيرش مي گويد و مي داند كه وجه تمايز ميان او و ديگران ، كار سخت ، مداومت و پشتكار و نگرش او بوده است.آدمهاي ناموفق و ناظران خارجي ، تاكيد فراواني روي استعداد دارند . از نظر آنها نبود استعداد ، بهانه خوبي براي دست روي دست گذاشتن و تنبلي كردن است . اگر يك ويژگي مشترك و برجسته بزرگ در تمام هنرمندان بزرگ ، دانشمندان ، ستارگان ورزشي و مغزهاي اقتصادي وجود داشته باشد ،بدون ترديد آن ويژگي استعداد آنها نيست ، بلكه تمركز آنهاست .

وقتي فهميديد كه به دنبال چه چيزي هستيد آن وقت ديگر تنها كاري كه باقي مي ماند ، متمركز كردن نيروهاست . هيچ كس نمي تواند همه كارها را به تنهايي و يكباره انجام دهد. هيچكس نمي تواند هم نهنگها را نجات دهد ، هم بيماران را شفا ببخشد و هم لايه ازن را ترميم كند.! بهتر است براي بقيه بشريت هم كاري باقي بگذاريم.!استعدادهاي خود را بپذيريم و براي آنها ارزش قائل باشيد . با پرسش و سؤال مستمر به آموختن ادامه دهيد . كار سخت ، مداومت و پشتكار و اتخاذ نگرشي معقول و تعلقي به كار و زندگي قطعا شما را فردي موفق خواهد كرد . وقتي بدانيد دنبال چي هستيد و باغ آرزوهايتان زيبا تصوير شده باشد تنها كارتان متمركز كردن تمام قوا جهت رسيدن به آن خواهد بود.

I have no talent!!Being talented is not necessary mean to create a masterpiece. Even pay attention to others is a aptitude itself. Learning and asking right questions is a talent. Problem solving, management and up bringing children is a talent as well. Unfortunately, we always underestimate our talents .Being satisfy and happy comes from your God-given talents development not feeling jealous to others abilities. Most people who presume they are not talented; they have not tested different things in life. It should be noted that although talent is one of the most important blessings from God, but it is not everything.When people talk about a successful athletic, they always talk about his\her extraordinary talent. But if we listen to his idea, he will maintain all his hard effort and practice of being successful . He knows the only reason he is different from others, is his persistent and rigid effort in that sport.Unsuccessful people always emphasis on talent as the most important element of being successful in life.From their point of view, not having a specific talent is a good excuse to not be lazy and not attempt in life.If there is a common characteristic in all artist, scientist, athletics and successful businessmen, it is not their talent but their concentration for their success.When you understand, what you are looking for in life, all it remains, is just concentrate all your energy to get it. Nobody can do everything by himself at the same time. Nobody can rescue all Wales and help sick people and at the same time work on ozone problem. We had better to leave something for other people to do as well!!!

Dances of Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan was once one of the Soviet Caucasian republics. Today it is an autonomous state, which has drawn international attention due to its rich oil reserves. A large number of Azeris also live in northwestern Iran in the region of the city Tabriz. The women's dances of the Caucuses are characterized by lovely hand and arm gestures and often by tiny steps, which danced under a floor length skirt, create the illusion that the dancer is floating. The dances - sometimes sad, sometimes fiery - are always lyrical and express the natural pride of the Azeri women. The solo and group dances were originally simple dances, danced at weddings and other festivities. In the ex Soviet Union they were developed into artistic stage dances.
