It’s time to get excited about what your house can be. Frustration may have started you on the road to change, but excitement will take you even farther than you ever dreamed you could go. You can’t go with your everyday life as passes by, where you haven’t gone in your dreams. When you start daydreaming when there’s nothing to do. Thinking things in details and after thinking sometimes this is where you start to think of a plan. You can stimulate your dreaming by looking around at the lives of your friends and relatives you admire the most, the ones who really seem to have their act together. Think back on how your mother did things. If that’s the life you want for yourself. Read decorating magazines. You can look for house brochures where you can see house models for open houses. Try to see, feel smell what you want your house to be.

Combining colors in particular ways can convey subtle nuances of meaning. An analogous color scheme uses colors that are adjacent on the cob:
wheel, such as green, blue-green, and blue. Although this type of cobo’ scheme shows the differences among the components represented, it also suggests their connection and compatibility. For example, a pie graph could use analogous colors to represent the students, faculty, and administration c.f a university. The different colors suggest that these parts are indeed separate but the analogous color scheme and the inclusion of these parts within circle imply that they belong together. In this subtle way, the presentation aid itself makes the statement that the components of a university ought t:
work together.

A complementary color scheme uses colors that are opposites on tt color wheel, such as red and green. Complementary color schemes suggest tension and opposition among elements in a speech. Because they heighten the sense of drama, they may enliven informative speaking and encourage change in persuasive speaking.
The colors you use for text should always stand out from the background of your presentation aid. With poster board, it is best to use a white or cream- colored board and strong primary colors such as red, blue, and green, for contrast. For slides or projections, a light background can create glare. Therefore. you might want to use a strong primary color for the background and have the text or other graphic elements printed in white. Color contrast is especially important for computer-generated slides and transparencies, because the colors may wash out and appear less distinct when projected than they & when seen on a monitor. Colors like pink, light blue, and pale yellow may nx be strong enough for good graphic emphasis in any type of presentation aid.

To prepare hand-made charts, graphs, or other poster and flip-chart aids, begin with a rough draft that allows you to see how your aid will look when It is finished. If you will be using poster board, prepare your draft on cheaper paper of the same size. With a light pencil, mark off the margins to fraction your aid. Divide your planning sheet into four equal sections to help you balance the placement of material. Use a wide-tipped felt-tip marker to sketch in your design and words. Now step back to view your presentation aid from about the same distance as the back row of your audience. Will your most distant listeners be able to read the words without straining? Is everything spelled correctly? Is your eye drawn immediately to the most important elements in the poster? Have you positioned your material so that it will be most effective? Is the poster balanced, or does it look lopsided? Once you are satisfied with your rough draft of the aid, construct the final product using stick-on letters and numbers.

Don’t try to crowd too much information into a single presentation aid. Are your margins and borders large enough to provide ample “white space”? Is there anything you can eliminate? If the poster looks cluttered, consider making a series of presentation aids instead of just one.
If you use computer-generated graphics to produce slides, transparencies, or handouts, experiment with several different designs. Don’t get so caught up with what the program can do that you try to incorporate everything into a single presentation aid. If you do, you will wind up with something that is so “busy” that it will detract from your message, rather than enhance it. Be consistent in the use of background color and fonts. Simplicity should be your rule of thumb.

Man is social being and as such his personality is viewed from the society and culture where he belongs. A society represents a geographical aggregate and had boundaries, similar government or a group of persons in meaningful interaction and engaged in social relationships. The key concept in the study of society is that of folkways. Folkways describe the way in which folks-modern or primitive people- act and can react as they go about their everyday business of living. When fears from the welfare of society have cast its spell over folkways, they become mores. Mores are fixed customs that have the force law.
Personality is the individualizing traits of man which includes knowledge, belief, arts, laws, morals, customs, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as member of society
