...of your way to help the people around you and make a difference in their life. I decided to choose this topic because every now and then I see that sometimes we are either giving too much or not enough. In general, this topic is very important to me; one of my life goals is to give whatever I can to anyone in need. I always make myself available to friends, family, and/or even strangers. There is a satisfying feeling when you know you are making a difference in someone’s life. Helping others can change your whole outlook on life for ever. Helping the people you love is such an honor. There is no one better to help you out than someone you care about deeply (2011, April 3). I believe that we are supposed to do whatever we need to for our family. For example, my sister, shelby, was recently in a car accident and I did everything I could for her. The accident was not her fault, but she was the one left with a totaled car and two hand injuries. I had to help her get dressed, take showers, cutting up her food, etc. She was so devastated that she could not do anything herself, so I gladly gave her all of my time and more. As a family, we should always stick together and help each other until for some reason we cannot anymore. There is such abundance love when helping out the people you care about. It is a blessing in disguise helping out people who are strangers to you. Sometimes we are a little skeptical to offer our assistance to people we hardly know, but you never know what...

...greatest selling tool you will have is a love for what you are selling and the belief that your company is the best. I can tell you a love for what you are doing will help you do it every day and if you believe in what you are selling you can make others belief it and then they will by it and on the smallest level just having the confidence can make you stand out verses others. This first part of the training will be the orientation. After going over the products a little, the company, and safety rules we will start to get the trainees ready to learn and the first thing will be to get them their uniform and get changed. After they have changed I feel it is important to talk to the trainee get to know them and each other, find out what they do, things that they like and things that they do not like and try to add things in about how that relates to their new job and why it is important; this can help get the new trainees interested and ready to learn which is important because you cannot force anyone to learn they must be ready and willing to. This should take the first part of day one. Now of the second half of the day we will do some more classroom training and some programmed instruction in which we will break down the different part of the job and going over each. So the first thing to go over is the customer because this is the start and end of their job, when a customer walks into the store they are all the sales people need to focus on.

...ladies and gentleman. It gives me a great pleasure to welcome all of you to this open day of Brainy Montessori in this morning. I’m ----------------- the founder of Brainy Montessori. I’m here to talk about “What does it take to be a good parent?” Before we go further, let me explain a bit what Brainy Montessori is. Brainy Montessori has been designed to teach children count, writing and reading and so on. The Montessori method of education is developed by Dr. Maria Montessori is a child centered education approach based on observation from birth to adult. It is being tested 100 years ago. According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, parent defines as a person who is a father or mother or a person who has a child. Parent also defines as to be or act as a parent to someone. Another definition is any organism that produces or generate another like parent cell or parent DNA. While, according oxford dictionary parent define as an animal or plant which new ones are derived. But, for me parent defines as a person who love their children unconditionally, always be by the children’s sides, understand their children. Someone who stands for them when they need someone, someone who will help them to solve problems. Someone who will teach or show them right or wrong, correct their mistakes. Back to the topic, raising kids is one of the toughest and most fulfilling jobs in the world. Most of the parents want to do the best in raising and teaching their children. Being a parent is not...

...somebody had called in sick for work and they had asked you to fill in for them, would you? We as a society get asked this question multiple times throughout our lives, this statement would be known as “the bystander effect”. Fundamentally, the bystander effect is most likely to occur when a group of people witness a situation, where a person is in distress and requires assistance. According to the theoretical model of diffusion of responsibility, people are less likely to intervene and come to the assistance of someone because they feel less responsible (Garcia, Weaver, Darley, & Moskowitz, 2002). If you witnessed an accident that happened right in front of you, would you drop the something that you are doing to go help? Some people would say yes, and some would say no. There is no right or wrong answer to this, but people think that “yes”, you should drop whatever it is that you are doing and go and help that person or persons that are in trouble. This is the “Bystander Effect”. Psychologists have done studies showing that you as a person, whether or not you should interfere would be determined by on the number of bystanders that were present of the incident. When an emergency situation transpires, witnesses are more than likely going to react a little differently whereas just in an “accident”. The difference between and accident and an emergency is pretty simple and basic, emergency is when somebody would be in desperate need of assistance and an accident is something that didn’t...

...You are the parent of a 16-year-old boy. You come home and find the door ajar. Inside, you discover your son’s friend looking in a kitchen drawer. He says he is trying to leave your son a note. On the counter next to him is a lock pick and some of your jewelry. The boy smells of marijuana. You tell the boy to leave immediately and he does. Do you call the police, call the boy’s parents, tell your son, or do something else? Write a 1,400- to 2,100-word paper, explaining your response. Format your paper consistent withAPA guidelines. I am the parent of a boy who is 16 years old. One day I came home to find that his friend was inside our home when no one was home. The door was ajar and I walked inside to find a friend of my son going through a drawer in our kitchen. He told me that he was simply trying to leave a note for my son, but on the counter beside him lays a lock pick and some of my jewelry. My son’s friend has the scent of marijuana all over him and when I tell him that it would be best if he leaves my home he does so without incident. This scenario requires very serious consideration. This is a child who is a friend of my son. In order to determine the best course of action many things need to be taken into consideration. The decision that I make could have drastic implications for this child’s life and could alter the course of his future forever. Should I call the police? Do I tell the child’s parents? Should I tell my son? What other options should...

...Marion Miller | 7/15/2012 | | The program I have decided to create is a program that helps families that have been hurt by the violence created by drug and alcohol addiction or use. I have seen this happen to parts of even my family and it is not easy to deal with. I have seen even my sister and my nephew hurt by her husband drinking and drug use it has been very hard. Especially when my sister does not do anything about it, because she is scared or wants to deal with it herself. Therefore, I believe this program would be a great success. Especially in the area, I live in many people deal with drug and alcohol abuse in my area. What is the problem? The problem being addressed is drug and alcohol and drug abuse and how many people get violent while on one or the other or both. While they are under the influence, they can hurt the people they love and maybe one they do not even know if they decide to drive while under the influence. The main drug of choice out where I live is meth and pot and people have gone so far as to break into other homes to steal to get money to support their habit. Those who get violent from drinking one even stabbed his pregnant wife and almost killed her and the baby. What are the demographics? The demographic here is disabled veteran and families with children as well as retired people and drug dealers. All of these live in just my area and you can walk just down the road and get almost any kind of drug including meth, and we are a small...

...make sure you know yourself because knowing what your goals are and how to accomplish them and to know what resources are available will help you succeed. Going back to school can be terrifying, especially after being out school for so long. You, like myself, are probably telling yourself that you can’t do it. You haven’t been in school in so long; things have changed so much. We all hate the thought of failure; the truth is you won’t know until you try. There are things you can do to help yourself prepare for returning to school, and I’m going to go over some that I have learned along the way. The most important thing you need to know when returning to school is yourself. You can’t be successful if you don’t know your strengths and weaknesses. By taking a look at yourself, you can get a grasp on what areas of learning you might struggle with and what part of learning should come easy. There are many factors that can influence how we learn. These factors can include your behavioral characteristics, how much life experience you have, which of your senses are most predominant and whether or not you are self-directed in your learning (Reuter, 2000). For instance, I know that I need to be shown a few times, then I need just to dive in and try it myself. If I don’t get that hands on experience, all the telling me in the world doesn’t make a difference. Knowing this, I have become better even in my career. Understanding how you learn helps you teach others. If you can spot...
