Acceptance…
Child Speak – I need for you adult, to enter into my world and show interest in me. Stop what you are doing. Be with me.
Acceptance in human psychology is a person’s assent to the reality of a situation, recognizing a process or condition without attempting to change it, protest or exit. The concept is close in meaning to ‘acquiescence’, derived from the Latin ‘acquiēscere’ (to find rest in).
This was a new experience for me folks! I love and adore my job and know it inside out and upside down, BUT I was then asked to talk about elements of what I do on camera! Why is it the most confident and able of us can be reduced to a gibbering wreck as soon as a camera is pointed at us? Must work on nerves!
Would love to hear your thoughts on our work (tips for speaking on camera are also most welcome ha!)
Be well 🙂
Tabula Rasa, a Latin term meaning blank slate
Suggesting that the mind begins as a blank slate. According to this notion, everything that we are and all of our knowledge is determined by our experience
I recently read and article written by Dr Kathryn Asbury, discussing her new book ‘G is for genes’ where the nature v nurture debate was explored. The nature versus nurture debate is one of the oldest issues in psychology. The debate centres on the relative contributions of genetic inheritance and environmental factors to human development. Some philosophers such as Plato and Descartes suggested that certain things are inborn, or that they simply occur naturally regardless of environmental influences.
As an educator I have seen the influences of both throughout my career, but would love to know what others feel on this matter…
Be well 🙂
