5 Core Values

Critical thinking has an important role in learning and development because if properly executed it allows me to see the entire situation instead of the individual task. I plan to take the necessary actions to determine the task with open eyes and an unbiased approach. Remembering the facts about the situation can help in resolving the issue. Understanding by reiterating the problem can help me further comprehend. Applying then analyzing the tasks and or situations so I can prepare the steps to come to the evaluation. I can see if the resources are accurate and thorough. The last thing I should be able to do to assure my critical thinking skills are complete is a form of creating. I take all the information of this situation, and use it in my final resolution. These steps are crucial in the ability to think clearly and not be clouded by biased information.

As the semester comes to a close, it is always interesting to look back and reflect on the events and opportunities my English class has given me throughout my first semester as a whole. At the beginning of this semester it was evident that I was feeling uncomfortable due to the adjustment that I was going through as a student moving to college. It was very difficult expressing myself through my writing since I was nervous about good impressions and my good grade. While this class was one of the most difficult courses that I have taken this far, it has become quite evident to me that I have grown a substantial amount as a writer and as a person; Especially, when it came to explaining my ideas, writing academic essays, and making arguments.

Honor, Courage, and Commitment are three core values that has changed me to become a better citizen. First of all, I follow the Navy core values, Honor Courage, and Commitment, outside of JROTC. Like; Being honorable, and having respect for others, treating everyone the same, no one is different and making hard decisions through my JROTC life. As a cadet, I learn from my mistakes. I see the world differently from others. I've noticed I always push myself to do better and I've been thinking about my life after high school, and who I want to become. JROTC is just a small step. When I first joined JROTC, I didn't expect such a dramatic change. Oh no, I didn't.

Drugs, promiscuous sex, birth control, and total happiness are the core values of the World State in the novel Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. In today’s society things like drug use and reckless sex are often seen as taboo, but in World State, these activities are glorified and even considered normal. Aldous Huxley attempts to address to readers the harsh realities and cruel ways of our society in an exaggerated form. His purpose in doing so is to open the eyes of society to what the world might come to if things like technology and humanity get out of hand. In the World State, the motto that people are conditioned to live by is “Community, Identity, and Stability”, all three of which are ironically twisted to encourage members of the society

Identify some core values of this organization as best as you can. What do they believe in (beyond organizational success or profitability)? How might their revealing these values to customers and employees create opportunities to exceed expectations? How can they translate core values into actions to produce A-plus value, thus strengthening relationships?

LaTonya, I love your examples of core values and how they affect advertising. When It comes to equality and constitutional rights, I feel that laws that were written were done many years ago and during that time, lawmakers didn't know which direction our country was headed. Laws were made to benefit one sex over the other, one race over the other and so on. Who knew a hundred years ago that the LGBT community would have to fight for their right to exist or that women would want to fight alongside our men on the battlefield. The world is evolving and so should laws and the mindset of individuals. I believe in God and all the bible stands for, however, it is not for me to judge anyone. The bible says to love "everyone". We do not get to pick

In order to be successful, a company’s core values must work cohesively with its vision and mission statements. Together, they provide direction for the company, motivate and inspire employees, aligns and guides actions throughout the organization, and communicates to stakeholders management’s aspirations for the company’s future (Thompson, 2016). Targets mission statement created in 1994, is to fulfill the needs and fuel the potential of their guests by making target their preferred shopping destination in all channels by delivering outstanding value, continuous innovation

The first virtue Ben Franklin wanted was “An Aversion to Tyranny”. The main idea of this to Ben is that he doesn’t like tyranny, which is power or control of one person. He didn’t like to be told what to do to and he also liked some control and therefore, have a limited government. Ben didn’t want any dictatorship either, which meant no kings or queens. Franklin realized that he didn’t like the idea of tyranny when he was 12 years old. He became an apprentice at the print shop of his older brother, James, who tended to be a tougher boss.

Have you ever wondered why states spend roughly one billion dollars a year on children (20 and under) who are attempting suicide or have attempted suicide (Nami, 2010)? That is due to the thousands of children who live their daily lives with an undiagnosed mental disorder. What is children’s mental health? Children’s mental health is defined as growing emotionally while developing healthful social skills and learning how to deal with problems (CDC, 2013). Some mental disorders found in children include: mood and anxiety disorders, behavior disorders, Autism spectrum disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia, and substance use disorder. ADHD, a neurodevelopmental disorder, is the most common disorder of children

The NASW six core values service, social justice, dignity and worth of the person, importance of human relationships, integrity, and competence. Fit right in with everything I believe in, I have entered this profession knowing that I want to provide a service to the public and help those in need. Growing up in a law enforcement family social justice and justice was ingrained into me and is very important to me in all aspects of my life. Dignity and worth of a person, this is a soft spot for me having been oppressed and treated badly due to the color of my skin. You don’t know how meaningful having dignity and self-worth is until you don’t have it. If it were up to me, no one would have to fight to have dignity and self-worth. The importance

Life is hard. I don’t know what the situation of others is; maybe some people do not need to worry about anything and live comfortable life. Nevertheless, from my perspective, life is hard for most people. Kids need to grow well, while parents need to take care of kids. Students want to from under control, while teachers want to manage them. Labors want a high salary, while their boss has no money to hand out. For me, as an ESL student now, it’s tough because I have to take English classes in the university every day, especially the classes that begin every morning at 8.

Everyone can have a different reaction after reading a same article. Why does this happen? Why would readers interpret a same piece of writing in different ways? In my opinion, the values that the individual readers have are one of the biggest factors that has effects on the interpretation of an editorial. Our values affect us not only as readers, but also as writers. Personally, I have three values that impact me as a reader and a writer. Values such as my relationship with family, religious values and cherishing alone moments strengthened my strengths.

Chris: Reading through figure 10.1 in chapter 10, the six basic principles that direct human behavior, I have come the conclusion that Authority is the one that best suits myself. Years of military service sort drills this into you, but as I get older and wiser (at least I hope), that maybe there is another choice that reflects my behavior when it comes to motivation. I feel that this list is incomplete and I do not agree that there are only six basic principles. Human emotions are complex and to categorize them into these six basic areas is foolish. One thing that I have learned from the military when it comes to making decisions, is not make a knee-jerk reaction. Instead, incorporate as much information as you can to make a sound decision.

As the year draws to a close, I reflect on what I have accomplished in my first semester of college. Not only have I grown as a writer but also as a person. This year was full of changes but I am glad that I remained steadfast in my beliefs and skills. While I learned things about myself in this course I also gained important writing and research skills.

Core values are a person or an organization's fundamental beliefs, these principles prescribe behavior along with helping people understand the difference between right and wrong, “values are what motivate you in life. They are what guide you along the path of fulfilment, so essentially your values are the foundation of who you are” (C.Worsley). These values are important to have because they are what shape you, they make every person unique. Having a spirit of adventure, perseverance, and having patience are only some of my core values. Knowing what you cherish is very important and is something many people should revise.
