    You either have it, or you don’t— a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?

    Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.

    “Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around. Says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”

    Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:

l         If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.

l         If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.

l         Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town. Streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.    

  Now you need never get lost again!

We're all faced with challenges at work, at school or even at home. We cannot avoid them, so we feel stressed. To deal with them, what we can do is to think positively, because positive thinking will help you find happiness and success in life. Being happy can fill you with light that will change not only your own life, but also the way you view the world as well. Therefore, it's necessary for us to develop a positive thinking attitude and choose to be happy today.

    Then how can we develop this very important and useful habit? Here are some useful tips that can help you

Take care of yourself, because a healthy body makes for a healthy mind. Eating well, exercising regularly and getting enough rest will help you take on the difficulties you face every day.

There will always be good times and bad times in life. Letting yourself know all the happy times and the good things that have happened will help you deal with the challenges that come your way.

Expressing your love to your friends, your family members, or even your pets through physical contact can immediately make you feel better and can greatly help in developing a positive thinking attitude.

Don't worry about something that may or may not happen in the future. We can never really predict what will happen in the coming days; the important thing is to live in the present moment and make full use of it.

Loneliness may bring negative thoughts. You can avoid being lonely by surrounding yourself with people who are positive and happy, as you'll soon find their happiness and positive energy affect you as well.
