I'm going to be a junior in high school and I have overcome some obstacles in life that I believe some people would have given up on. I would really like to become a motivational speaker because I think that I could really reach kids because I am close their age. How would I go about becoming a motivational speaker now?

Like in a negative way? Like I think of me and my boyfriend being together at school, or saying in my mind that I love him [[yet when I told him in person I felt something in my chest]]. Or just even thinking of hanging out or him. Its weird tho, bc i can be happy with him and so giggly and natural holding hands. And when my friend had me on her "myspace" top 8 thing, it dropped too. And she's a really good friend!!

Is it doubt, not liking something, etc?

I have a dream that all the contestants in the appretice including me have made it to the finals and we are all waiting to have interviews (I know it doesn't work like this in real-life). I'm not nervous - as I know I have no chance of winning, due to my lack of skills. However, then I see a famous celeb who is a contestant and he is nervous and trying to concentrate because he knows he has a chance of winning. Then I start getting nervous and have to keep going to the bathroom, but then I remember that I have no chance of winning. As a result I start becoming too relaxed. When all the contestants are waiting in the snack room I warm some milk in the microwave, start drinking that alongside some water and then a moment later start laughing hysterically - my face even goes red because I 'm laughing so much, but I don't care. My behaviour has alerted some of the others in the room including the celebrity. Then the dream stops.

Can anyone interperate this dream please?

i familiar with how they 'feel' when ther occur but ive no idea about the mechanics of the emotion. are they under our direct control?
i dont believe my emotions are in control of me but it seems im not in control of them either. maybe anger or compassion are habits...help!

Thanks

We hear one fact & BOOM; we cam recall it at will. Other info we hear & 10 minutes later we don't remember ever hearing it before.
What determines if the info goes to long or short-term memory?

I wonder how? I'm always honest, & people who lie, steal, & cheat are considered more mature than me. In other words, people say I'm more childish than them, just because I'm sensitive & my feelings get hurt easily.

This morning, my mother gave me the "why are you not searching for someone to marry" conversation.

In the afternoon I bumped into a guy from an old job who basically told me that no one liked me at work and they always talked bad about me when I wasn't there.

The same night I went to a party and a guy I was having a conversation with asked me "So why can't you get a man?" left the party crying.

I can't believe all this has happend to me in one day. I feel like garbage. I am a really kind person, I volunteer, I take care of an elderly parent, I am trying to get into law school. I don't deserve all this.

What do I look for to find one of those types of things. Can the mind actually be stopped from yearning for someone, something?

Okay.
last night i had a dream my sister and i were in atlantic city and i walked into the ocean, but i couldnt get out cause i would go toward shore, and the wave would pull me back, then another wave would come, and the curl on it would go over top of me. and i couldnt get out of the ocean, and i thought i was going to drown. i had my cell in my hand and kpet it in the air so the water wouldnt get on it, but it was so rough, and going over top of me. the whole time my sister was just on the shore watching and laughing as if she didnt know i really couldnt get out and she didnt know i thought i was going to drown.

does that mean anything? i just thought it was so random and weird. thanks.

I've met some people who think that psychology is a blow-off field to study and doesn't deserve to be called a science. I tell them that there is the branch of neuropsychology to study, which is scientific and biologically-oriented. What else can I say to help them understand that this a valid field...my mind is blank right now this late at night....

is there any purpose in labelling your stereotype, religion, sexuality, style...etc.... i just want to do my own thing coz labelling causes stress and changes your inner character. do you think people are born with natural characters?

Or do people have unique personalities that are independent of their parents or siblings? How can one explain how a large family with many siblings can contain so many different personalities?

or the word ' again' they get me really angry and i feel like shouting at them to '' shut up''.....its also this way with clothing to, iam sensitive....if a person wears white, i hate it, if they have a white shirt on i get very annoyed and cant bear to be around them, and will do anything to get away from them....or i'll rebel and wear black or brown to oppose them...

whats causing me to be this way?

just before a person used the words '' all the time'' in her question, as part of the question, and i found myself seething in anger .....or if i here a person say 'again'' or ''all the time'' or if they wear white, ill get angry and want to oppose them, or do any thing in my power to get away from them..

I don't see what's wrong with sarcasm. I use it myself, but I don't deeply offend people. Some people are just irritable and can't take a sarcastic remark.
Do you think sarcasm is a good thing socially, spiritually, behaviorally, etc.??
