do these foods have, and why do you think that you like these particular
flavours?
The food I like to eat most is tea leaves salad which contains equal of chili and lime
which discover a sour taste as well as a savory taste. Tea leaf salad typically consists
of fermented tea leaves mixed with a variety of ingredients to create a unique and
flavorful combination. Since it includes a variety of crunchy beans which make the
best combination for the food that gives an earthy and tangy flavour. The earthy
flavour of the beans complements the tanginess of the lime and the spiciness of the
chili, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.

Critical Thinking Slide
1. Hypnosis
With the use of hypnosis, people can have direct access to their subconscious mind.
This is accomplished by practicing focused breathing and deep relaxation techniques
that help to quiet and control the conscious mind. As a result, people may experience
an altered level of awareness that is characterized by greater relaxation, enhanced
focus, and improved concentration. The conscious mind is calmed under hypnosis,
enabling access to the subconscious mind and potentially altering behaviour, beliefs,
and perceptions. People can use hypnosis to examine their most personal feelings,
memories, and thoughts, which helps them feel better mentally and generally.

1. Consider your own personality and those of people you know. What traits do
you enjoy in other people and what traits do you dislike?
2. Consider some of the people who have had an important fluence on you. What
were the personality characteristic of these people that made them so
influential?
The people who have had the most influence on me is my mother and my
grandmother because both of them have same personalities of agreeableness and
extroversion. They're like social butterflies, always bringing people together and
making sure everyone feels welcome. I can't even begin to count the number of times
they've taught me valuable life lessons and pushed me to be a better person. They've
taught me so much about kindness and connecting with others, and I couldn't be more
grateful for their influence in my life.
3. Give some examples of how emotional intelligence (or the lack of it) influences
your everyday life and the lives of other people you know.
A person with great emotional intelligence may have developed useful stress-
reduction techniques. They are more likely to maintain composure, evaluate things
objectively, and develop constructive coping mechanisms for stress. On the other
hand, those with low emotional intelligence may find it challenging to control their
emotions, which can increase stress levels and make it challenging to come up with
workable solutions.
I have a sister in my family, who often struggles with managing stress. She has a low
level of emotional intelligence, which means she has difficulty recognizing and
understanding her own emotions. As a result, she often becomes overwhelmed by
stress, leading to emotional outbursts and negative impacts on her well-being. This lack
of emotional intelligence not only affects her own life, but it also creates tension and
unease for those around her, as they often have to navigate through her emotional
volatility.
I've seen that people with high emotional intelligence typically have relationships
that are better and healthier. Alex, a good friend of mine, is incredibly emotional
intelligent. They are able to emotionally connect with others, actively listen, and
comprehend various viewpoints. They are able to build stronger relationships and
keep enduring friendships as a result. Because of their high emotional intelligence,
they can resolve disputes amicably and provide assistance when required, improving
the lives of those around them.
Well, if I started getting paid for my time volunteering at a homeless shelter, my attitude
might change in a couple of ways. First of all, I might feel more motivated and
committed to showing up regularly because now I have a financial incentive to do so.
Money can be a powerful motivator for many people, and knowing that I'll be
compensated for my time might make me feel more invested in my work.
On the other hand, I might also imagine a possible drawback. Without any expectation
of financial reward, generosity and the desire to have a beneficial impact are frequently
the driving forces behind volunteering. There's a possibility that if I started getting paid,
my motivation would change away from the sincere desire to help people and more
towards the money benefit. Instead of being a volunteer effort motivated by empathy
and compassion, it can turn into more of a job.
