I want to write my own book related to Soft Skills (Psychological),i have the source in my hand?

Really i don’t have money to invest in my book. can i successfully release my book with the help of some publications who concentrates on quality of matter rather than money?

You can
1. get an agent,
2. submit your manuscript to publishers yourself, or
3. self publish. (ofcourse u don have neough money to invest. so , better u go for agent)

An agent is a good way to go if your really interested in making money because agents know what will sell and how to sell it.

If you decide to submit the manuscript to publishers yourself, check out a few publishers and find those who publish your type of writing. Some publishers are specialized, others aren’t. Check their websites for submission guidelines and be prepared to submit a cover letter with the manuscript.

If you self publish you can do it yourself on your computer or pay a company to do it for you. The easiest way to get professional quality publishing by self publishing is to publish through lulu.com where you submit your manuscript and they print off copies as they’re sold.

Throughout the process, the website writing.com can help you a lot. You can find people to review your writing and lots of information on the process of publishing.

Good luck.

What are some methods to aid in improving time management skills?

As much or as little detail as you’d like, or even links to online topics. Thanks!

One of my English teachers once did an excerise in which she made us all put down the things that we are busy with during one day: school, sleep, work, homework, exercise, hanging out with friends/family. She also wrote down an estimate time for each thing. Maybe you can do something similar:

Make a list of everything you must do in your typical day, such as the things mentioned above. And try to fit them together like a puzzle, in order to get them all done. Set aside the appropriate time for each activity. It may be hard at first, but give it a shot. After you stick to this "time management schedule" soon you will get used to it and may not rely on it as much.

Some websites to check out:

You can figure out the rest from there.


i am facilitating a summer camp for ages 4-12. themed, christian leadership development. are there grants?


Your best bet would be private grants. Though summer is coming soon and I doubt if you could write a proposal that quickly and submit it to the foundations. You may want to try for next year.

For private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center’s Foundation Grants for Individuals Online http://gtionline.fdncenter.org . It’s a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) and their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices."

The Foundation Center has a database of private foundations who give grants to non profits. If you are registered as a non profit you can try their database for organizations http://www.fdncenter.org


How are leadership and control different? How are planning and control different?

How are leadership and control different? How are planning and control different? How are structure and control different?

The difference is a guide and a dictator, freedom of choice and forced will upon others.


How are human relations and interpersonal skills practiced in classrooms?


You just need to think how all the people in a classroom interact – including the teacher. Who talks when? Why doesn’t everyone speak at once? And what does that teach us about relating to others? Are the relations between people in a classroom physical or verbal? What things go right (or wrong) in a classroom and what does that tell you about the social skills of those people?


What books/workshops do you suggest to increase my Communication Skills in an informal setting?

I want to increase my communication skills in an Informal Setting especially when with a large group of Friends,or with a distant Uncle. It is not that I am awful in dealing those kind of situations but I would like myself to be much more confident and more expressive.

Any books or Workshops or Videos idea are welcome.

I attended a workshop conducted my a gentleman named Michael Hargrove a few years back that proved to be very beneficial in the career I was working in. He conducted a 1-day workshop that covered not only verbal communication skills, but also body language, mannerisms, facial expressions & tone. His training seminar also touched on the ways that different personality types respond when speaking and processing their thoughts before responding to verbal prompts. Communication and human interaction is SO MUCH MORE involved than just a persons words. Although I was there for the benefit of my automotive sales career, I believe Mr. Hargrove conducts these success seminars for other vocational fields as well, if he doesn’t he should! He is somebody I’d google up and look into….GOOD LUCK!
