The Tipping Point

Good afternoon, my peers,

A tipping point could simply refer to the time when something very important or very important changes in your life, which are irreversible take place. According to Cambridge Dictionary, “tipping point is the time at which a change or an effect cannot be stopped”. That is, the time after something has reached a gravity, so to speak, where you do not have any ways of preventing that change from being carried out. We all have had very important tipping points in our lives, so we have our own instances to explain what a tipping point is.

According to Malcolm Gladwell, who is the author of a widely acclaimed bestseller called ‘The Tipping Point’, “the tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crossed a threshold (a particular level), tips, and spreads like wildlife. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate.”

In this book, which looks at the social spread of fads, Malcolm Gladwell explores and brilliantly illuminates the tipping point phenomenon, which is already changing the way people throughout the world think about selling products and disseminating ideas. I have read some reviews on the book and the basis on which the book was written, and I have found it to be quite engaging. As soon as I get some free time, I will definitely research further on it and subsequently, read this great book. I believe it would be a great reading for all of you, so you should absolutely read it as well. It is safe to say that you will all learn a great deal from it.  

I also had the chance to watch a video where Malcolm Gladwell talks about his book, and I found it particularly interesting. He talks about this tipping point idea as a whole and how he got to where he is regarding this matter. It is great to see how he expresses himself and how passionate he is about this topic. I thoroughly enjoyed all of his ideas and the way he thinks.  

In any case, I would hate to spoil the video for you, so please go ahead and watch it for yourself. I hope you will learn a lot from it just the same way I have.

Hit play on the video below. 👇 Enjoy it!

Workplace privacy. Sources; from Internet.

          Technology allow employers to monitor many aspects of their employees' workplace activities. while employees may feel that such monitoring is a violation of their privacy rights,many types of monitoring are allowed under the law. A nayority of employers monitor their employees. They are motivated by concern over litigation and the increasing rol that electronic evidence plays in lawsuits and government agency investigations.           Almost everything you do on your office computer can be monitored. Such monitoring virtually unregulated, therefore ,unless company policy specifically state otherwise ( and even is not assured),your employes may listen , watch and read most of  your workplace communications. Courts often have found that when employees are using an employer's equipment, their expectation of privacy is limited.           I's important to be aware that your employer's promises regar...

The Bold and the Bashful

Hello, everyone, We all certainly have personality traits that distinguish us from each other. Unit three tells us about two very specific features, which are boldness and bashfulness. In my view, it is funny to see that people would talk about these two features as completely separated from each other to describe others. That is, I do not believe they can be used this way. We cannot use either of these adjectives to entirely describe a person because no one is one thing or the other in its entirety. That is to say, even the people you might consider that possess a great amount of boldness are somehow also bashful, and the same thing occurs with people who are bashful; they can also be bold depending on the circumstances. I was very curious about how these two terms were being employed since in my particular case, even though I am more of an introvert, I consider myself to be both bold and bashful. I am selectively one thing or the other, and the degree to which I can act in a...

🕊️Spiritual Renewal🕊️  Unit 6 ✝️To replenish my soul, to be closer to God, walk with him, and lead a better life you have to read or study the Bible, and when you do it, ask God to give you the wisdom to understand it, to understand the message, you can learn a verse each week or each month, You can make "cilicios" and fast, people do not like to fast or sometimes time is not enough, as we saw in unit 6. If they knew how important it is to fast, that it can help them both in the physical and spiritual lives, They did it; but the best thing of all is to pray, to connect with God, humble yourself before God, Tell him what is happening to you, talk to him, and don't be proud, be humble.✝️ Finally I want to share with you a link or a video about the prayer. Why it is important to pray, how do it, etc I love to pray and worship my God 😍 https://youtu.be/Cav8cJrqcco God Bless You!!!
