It may be comforting to hear that antidepressant medications correct chemical imbalances in the brain just as insulin controls diabetes.

They look forward to less pressure from work and more opportunities to relax, but they are bored after a month or so. The fact is, you are the same person on the first day of retirement as you were on the last day of work. You have the same needs.

They help us tolerate pain— both physical and emotional—and they also seem to be involved in our ability to take personal responsibility for our actions. 

The third reason for opposition lay in the nature of many of the polymeric materials then known. Not only were they apparently ill-characterised, but they were also frequently non-crystal-line, existing as gums and resins. Just the sort of unpromising media, in fact, from which dextrous organic chemists had become used to extracting crystalline substances of well characterised physical and chemical properties.

Trevor s over-identification with his work meant that a major part of his sense of significance and self-worth had become bound up in his job. He dedicated very little time to activities outside work and saw his personal and social status in terms of his job label.

He had, as a result of these beliefs, become a slave to his work in order to feed his self-esteem, which had also had a negative impact on his relationships, social life and personal happiness.

People have many abilities and talents that they are unaware of or just do not use. As a motivator, the supervisor is responsible for bringing out those hidden abilities and talents and channeling them toward the goals, outcomes, behaviors, and objectives desired.
