In my own research on strength-based parenting it is common for people to wrongly label this approach as a recipe for narcissism. Their argument seems to be that a child who knows their strengths will automatically view themselves as better than everyone else. It is argued that the self- assurance that comes with identifying and using their positive qualities will make a child arrogant. selfish and uncaring. Genuine confidence about one’s strengths is categorized as over-confidence; desirable self-knowledge is branded a excessive self-admiration.
why does this occur? It’s party because more is known about narcissism than strengths, While strengths psychology has largely stayed within the limit of academic journals or has been applied only within certain contexts such as the workplace, research on narcissism has made its way into the mass media and into our collective consciousness. The New York noted that narcissism is a favored\go-to\topic and that people everywhere are diagnosing others with it.
The fear that a strength-based approach will cause narcissism also occurs because we unknowingly fall prey to binary(非此即彼的) thinking. We mistakenly believe that one cannot be both confident and humble. We focus on Donald Trump and Kim Kardashian rather than Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Teresa. There’s no way that Gandhi and Mother Teresa could have achieved what they did without confidence in their strengths, and yet they are both pillars of modesty and selflessness

When we assume that strength-focus is the same as a self- focus, we fail to entertain the idea that people who know their strengths are actually, more likely to be pro-social and focus on helping others.

Red Meat
Do you walk round the shops thinking about what to slap on the barbecue, pause by the steaks, pick them up, put them back and then go in search of something healthier? In a restaurant do you order fish, even though you’d secretly prefer lamb?
If you believe the headlines, then eating meat will stop your heart, give you cancer, shorten your life and destroy the planet. 66 Red meat looks darker thanks higher levels of haemoglobin and myoglobin, which are the iron-and-oxygen-binding proteins you find in blood and muscle

One recent paper, Meat Consumption and Mortality tried to answer that question. It came to the—perhaps surprising—conclusion that eating moderate amounts of red meat had no effect on mortality, in fact it seemed to be protective. The lowest overall mortality rates in this study were among those people eating up to 80g a day, not those who shunned it. This particular paper was based on findings from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) 68
The researchers found that although there was a small increase in overall risk for those who ate over 160g day, there was also a higher death rate among people who ate no meat at all. 69 . This is understandable as meat is an important source of nutrients, such as protein, iron, zinc, several B vitamins, as well as vitamin A and essential fatty acids. In other words, vegans and vegetarians may not have been getting sufficient essential micronutrients.
70 The EPIC study found that eating processed meat, like sausages, bacon and ham, did have a negative effect on health. Over 40g a day (fewer than two slices of bacon) and deaths from heart disease and cancer began to climb. “In this population, reduction of processed meat consumption to less than 20g/day would prevent more than 3 per cent of all deaths, ”it said.
A. They concluded that a low-but not a zero-consumption of meat might be beneficial for health.
