PDF file have few slides for young professionals who have just started their career or for teachers and training facilitators covering Goal Setting and Time Management under the main heading of "Self Management"
Teachers need practical and and quick-to-implement strategies to teach self-management to children. Many people are familiar with self-management through Walter Mischel's Marshmallow test. (Some people call it self-control or self-regulation.)
Self-management is a key enabler for all learning (for children and adults!) whether for academic subjects, other content areas, or skills like playing a musical instrument. Self-management allows students to follow through on plans to complete assignments, study for tests, and manage their emotions to stay focused in class.
This presentation is one small piece of a growth mindset toolkit for educators (and parents) developed by Transforming Education. For more information, please visit: http://transformingeducation.org/growth-mindset-toolkit/
Self management is a recent concept in pulmonary rehabilitation. this concept uses patient's ability to manage their self with no direct interaction with their healthcare provider.
For Young professionals on 'Self-Management' skills for excelling in life. A brief study by Dr. Balasubramanian, Psychologist, Thought Leader, Transformation Coach and CEO of www.visionunlimited.in 9840027810. Just copy or download for your use.
Teachers need practical and quick-to-implement strategies to encourage their students to develop a growth mindset. Students with a growth mindset believe that ability can change as a result of effort, perseverance, and practice (“Math is hard, but if I keep trying, I can get better at it.”). Students with a growth mindset see mistakes as ways to learn, embrace challenges, and persist in the face of setbacks.
Students with a fixed mindset believe that their own intelligence and talent are innate traits that don’t change (“I just can’t learn math.”). These students typically worry about not looking smart, get upset by mistakes, and give up sooner on tough tasks.
High-performing students and low-performing students may have either mindset. Whether or not students are aware of their mindset, a broad body of research has shown that what they believe about their own intelligence can affect their effort, engagement, motivation, and achievement as measured by test scores, school grades, passing rate in post-secondary education, and other metrics.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

Income Limits: Applicants must meet income guidelines, which vary by region and household size.
Primary Residence: The home must be used as the borrower's primary residence.

what is the future of Pi Network currency.DOT TECH
The future of the Pi cryptocurrency is uncertain, and its success will depend on several factors. Pi is a relatively new cryptocurrency that aims to be user-friendly and accessible to a wide audience. Here are a few key considerations for its future:
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram if u want to sell PI COINS.
1. Mainnet Launch: As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Pi was still in the testnet phase. Its success will depend on a successful transition to a mainnet, where actual transactions can take place.
2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.
how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?
Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.

Resume
• Real GDP growth slowed down due to problems with access to electricity caused by the destruction of manoeuvrable electricity generation by Russian drones and missiles.
• Exports and imports continued growing due to better logistics through the Ukrainian sea corridor and road. Polish farmers and drivers stopped blocking borders at the end of April.
• In April, both the Tax and Customs Services over-executed the revenue plan. Moreover, the NBU transferred twice the planned profit to the budget.
• The European side approved the Ukraine Plan, which the government adopted to determine indicators for the Ukraine Facility. That approval will allow Ukraine to receive a EUR 1.9 bn loan from the EU in May. At the same time, the EU provided Ukraine with a EUR 1.5 bn loan in April, as the government fulfilled five indicators under the Ukraine Plan.
• The USA has finally approved an aid package for Ukraine, which includes USD 7.8 bn of budget support; however, the conditions and timing of the assistance are still unknown.
• As in March, annual consumer inflation amounted to 3.2% yoy in April.
• At the April monetary policy meeting, the NBU again reduced the key policy rate from 14.5% to 13.5% per annum.
• Over the past four weeks, the hryvnia exchange rate has stabilized in the UAH 39-40 per USD range.

IV.Devising a self-management
plan
10/15/14 2
3. I. Defining Self-Management
Self-management: using behavior
modification procedures to change
one’s own behavior.
Why “self-management” and not “self-control”
or “will power”?
10/15/14 3
4. I. Defining Self-Management
“Behave today, to manage behavior
tomorrow.”
“Take action now, to prevent problems later.”
“A little effort now, for a larger gain later.”
All these statements are suggestive of self-management.
10/15/14 4
5. I. Defining Self-Management
Self-management involves a controlling
behavior and a controlled behavior
Controlling behavior what the person does now.
Managing antecedents and consequences.
Controlled behavior refers to the behavior the
person wants to manage in the future.
Learning new behaviors.
10/15/14 5
6. II. Defining Self-Management
Problems
Behavioral deficits refers to the failure to
perform the desirable behavior.
Generally, the undesirable outcome is delayed.
The more immediate reinforcement is, typically,
smaller than the delayed reinforcement.
Typical of behaviors considered “impulsive.”
Self-management goal: Increase the
behavioral level so it is no longer a deficit.
10/15/14 6
7. II. Defining Self-Management
Problems
Behavioral excess refers to the consistent
performance of the undesirable behavior.
Generally, the undesirable outcome is delayed,
albeit uncertain, negative impact.
The more immediate punisher is, typically, smaller
than the delayed ill effects.
Typically involves more immediate reinforcement
(immediate “gratification”; impulsivity)
Typical of behaviors considered “unhealthy.”
10/15/14 7
8. III. Self-Management
Strategies
Basically, self-management involves
the individual:
identifying and defining the target
behavior.
using behavior modification procedure(s)
to develop alternative behavior(s).
10/15/14 8
9. III. Self-Management
Strategies
Seven steps are involved:
1. Goal setting.
2. Self-monitoring.
3. Antecedent manipulations.
4. Behavioral contracting.
5. Using consequences (reinforcers & punishers).
6. Social support.
7. Self-instructions and self-praise.
10/15/14 9
10. III. Self-Management
Strategies
1.Goal setting.
Writing down
the target behavior
criterion level
time frame.
May produce reactivity effects.
Take advantage of reactivity effects.
Goal setting typically ineffective by itself.
10/15/14 10
11. III. Self-Management
Strategies
• Set goals that are:
achievable.
especially true early in change program.
Goal achievement=conditioned reinforcer.
10/15/14 11
12. III. Self-Management
Strategies
2. Self-monitoring.
Observing one’s own behavior.
Often combined with goal setting.
Produces reactivity effects.
10/15/14 12
13. III. Self-Management
Strategies
3. Antecedent manipulations.
Involved in all self-management
interventions.
Six strategies.
Three strategies for increasing desirable
behavior:
Presenting SD.
Arranging EOs.
Decreasing response effort.
10/15/14 13
14. III. Self-Management
Strategies
Three strategies for decreasing
undesirable behavior:
Removing SD.
Removing EOs.
Increasing response effort.
10/15/14 14
15. III. Self-Management
Strategies
4. Behavioral contracting.
A written document that:
specifies the target behavior
arranges contingent consequences
in a specified time period.
Self-management enters the picture when:
the controlling behavior (writing the contract) attempts
to manage the controlled behavior (target behavior).
10/15/14 15
16. III. Self-Management
Strategies
A contract can be written and implemented by:
oneself, or
a contract manager.
Reinforce the manager’s behavior!
• Danger!
Short-circuiting the contract.
Either cheating on the reinforcers, or
avoiding the punishers.
10/15/14 16
17. III. Self-Management
Strategies
5. Using consequences (reinforcers &
punishers).
Contingency management sans the contract.
Positive/negative reinforcement.
Positive/negative punishment.
Advantage: no other person is required.
Disadvantage: Short-circuiting.
10/15/14 17
18. III. Self-Management
Strategies
• Short-circuiting solution:
Have another person implement the
consequences.
Reinforce the other person’s behavior.
Difficulties:
Others may be unwilling.
Conflicts can arise.
10/15/14 18
19. III. Self-Management
Strategies
6. Social support.
Occurs when significant others provide:
the context (SDs) for the behavior;
the consequences for the behavior.
Useful in preventing short-circuiting.
Include, as much as possible, in self-management
interventions.
10/15/14 19
20. III. Self-Management
Strategies
Self-management enters the picture
when:
The person arranges (controlling behavior) for
social support to impact the target behavior
(controlled behavior).
10/15/14 20
21. III. Self-Management
Strategies
7. Self-instructions and self-praise.
Behavior can be influenced by specific
self-talk.
Self-instructions involve instructing/telling
oneself
what to do and
how to do it.
Self-praise involves positive evaluations of one’s desirable
performance.
Performance need not, initially, be perfect.
10/15/14 21
22. III. Self-Management
Strategies
• To use self-instructions:
Identify the self-statements.
Identify the time and place when they are
to be used.
Rehearse/role-play their use in detail.
Use them after they are mastered.
10/15/14 22
23. III. Self-Management
Strategies
• To use self-praise:
Identify the self-praise statements.
Identify the behavior and level of
performance.
Rehearse/role-play their use in detail.
Use them after they are mastered.
Avoid using negative statements.

25. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
1. Deciding to use self-management.
Person is dissatisfied.
Wonders/imagines how behavior could be
different.
Becomes motivated to take action.
Anticipates positive outcomes.

26. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
2. Defining the target and competing
behaviors.
Define the target behavior(s), so
it can be recorded, so
an appropriate self-management strategy can
be used.
Define the competing behavior(s), so
a behavioral deficit can be increased, or
a behavioral excess can be decreased.

27. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
3.Goal-setting.
Determine the level of the target behavior.
Write it down.
Specify intermediate steps, if necessary.
Make it public (commitment to change).
10/15/14 27
28. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
4. Self-monitoring.
Develop and implement a self-monitoring plan.
Immediately record each occurrence of the target
behavior.
1-2 weeks to establish baseline.
Behavior must be stable prior to implementing self-management
plan.
Continue monitoring throughout intervention.
Permits evaluation of effectiveness.

29. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
5. Functional assessment.
Concurrent with self-monitoring,
conduct a FA.
Identify antecedents and consequences.
For both target and competing behaviors.
10/15/14 29
30. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
6. Selecting the appropriate strategy.
Selected based on FA.
Use/manipulate antecedent strategies that
compete with target behavior.
Presenting SD.
Arranging EOs.
Decreasing response effort.
Removing SD.
Removing EOs.
Increasing response effort.
10/15/14 30
31. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
Use/manipulate consequent strategies.
To decrease undesirable and increase
behavior:
eliminate reinforcers.
arrange punishers.
reinforce alternative behaviors.
eliminate punishment contingencies for
alternative behaviors.
Use BST procedures to teach alternative
behaviors.

32. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
To increase desirable and decrease
undesirable behavior:
arrange reinforcers.
eliminate punishers.
eliminate reinforcers for alternative behaviors.
arrange punishment contingencies for alternative
behaviors.
Use BST procedures to teach alternative
behaviors.

33. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
7. Evaluating the change.
Collect data throughout intervention.
Behavior changing in desired direction:
Continue with program.
Behavior not changing in desired
direction: Re-evaluate program.

34. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
8. Re-evaluating self-management
strategies.
Two types of problems.
1. Procedures are not implemented correctly.
Beyond person’s skill level, use different
procedures.
2. Inappropriate self-management strategy.
Procedures are implemented correctly.
Examine FA for what you should do.
10/15/14 34
35. IV. Devising A Self-
Management Plan
9. Maintenance strategies.
Goal is being achieved.
Ideally, the natural contingencies will take
over.
In the meantime:
Continue goal-setting.
Self-monitoring.
Particularly important as it provides the requisite
feedback.
