Education from Altındağ Municipality that enlightens the women of Altındağ... Women from Altındağ who are members of Women's Education and Culture Centers came together at the seminar called "Anatomy of a Crow". In the seminar held by psychologist Burcu Bal, the problem-solving skills of crows were emphasized and how this skill could be adapted to human life. In the seminar, information was given about topics such as "the crow solving the 8-stage experiment, crow philosophy, crows and thinkers, obstacles in problem solving skills, problem solving steps, application, conflict management, causes of conflict, stages of conflict, misconceptions about conflict, positive results of conflicts, effective and ineffective methods in conflict resolution, definition, creating solution suggestions, choosing the appropriate solution and relationship strategies." The seminar was greatly appreciated by the women of Altındağ. “THE MOST IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THOSE WHO ARE SUCCESSFUL AND THOSE WHO FAIL, IS THAT ONE CONTINUES ON THE ROAD” Emphasizing that crows are creatures that can solve a problem they encounter without giving up, Psychologist Burcu Bal gave important information about problem solving to the women of Altındağ. Bal said: "When we compare the crow with people, we often see that people give up. Even though the problems we encounter in daily life are not simple, we should not be afraid when we fail. The important thing is to continue until we reach our goal. Because failure is a natural part of the problem-solving process. When a person is not afraid of failure, he can evaluate the process more healthily and find his way. If there were no failures, we would not learn to take a new step. We should not forget that every problem has an exit. The important thing is to focus on the path we follow. People are often the problem "The most important difference between someone who is successful and someone who is unsuccessful is that they keep going." “OUR SKILLS TO SOLVE OUR PROBLEMS HAVE IMPROVED MORE” Stating that she was very impressed by the seminar, Women's Education and Culture Center member Sevil Öztürk said, "I am 35 years old and as a person of our age, we experience situations such as general collapse and inability to solve problems. Even if we wanted to take such seminars, we could not receive them. But thanks to our Municipality, we can attend such an awareness-raising seminar. I was someone who had difficulty in realizing and solving my problems, but now our problem-solving skills have improved. We stopped running away from the problems and discovered how to solve those problems. From now on, I will be ambitious like a crow and struggle until I achieve success." "With my problems..." he said. Another participant, Muhteber Can, said: "I am 65 years old. This service offered to women is truly excellent... I had a somewhat aggressive personality, but thanks to this seminar, I will now approach the problems more calmly. I was very impressed by how Kargan did not give up on his goal and achieved a solution in 8 steps and succeeded, and it was a very inspiring example for us. This seminar shed light especially on our people who have not discovered themselves and do not know much about psychology. I would like to express my gratitude to Mayor Tiryaki for this opportunity he has given us. May God bless him." he said.
