Furthermore, there isn’t a definite system for assessing claims for this situation being that we are a small company, there is a lack of support from the high level managers and that a few employees seem to want to take charge on everything that goes on in the workplace. In addition, the acceptance of this information doesn’t advance the vested interest of the employee. The employee just wants to be in charge of everything, being that it is his normal character. Moreover, the person does make the communication uncomfortably, being that their mannerism has always been unwelcoming. Exhibit 4.12 1.) The problem or decision I am facing is deciding on if I took on to much responsibility while I am currently in school. 2.) Some potential solutions to the problem or decision I might make are: • Creating a planner • Cutting my hours at work • Focusing on the other goals after I finish with school 3.) Implications: • Every month I would write out my activities that I have planned for each day. This way I wouldn’t procrastinate and my stress level wouldn’t be as high. • If I decide to cut my hours, I would probably do half days on certain days, so that I get enough time to accomplish things. • I would rather complete one goal at a time, instead of focusing on two goals at the moment, being that it would create a little more free time for what is
Most students when the wake up feel drowsy or tired because they have to go to school before 8:00 am. Schools should have later start times for many reason some include that they just need more sleep and that if they do not get enough sleep it could be dangerous.
As Paul and Elder point out, critical thinking is self-guided and self-disciplined thinking that assists us in reasoning in a fairminded way (FOCT, 2017). It allows us as humans to live a conscious and consistent life where rationality, reasonability and empathy and present when faced with problems. While I am actively learning how to become a better critical thinker, I have learned that the first step to successfully think critically, I needed to diminish my power to think egocentric. In my professional life, I find myself evaluating situations with more clarity and looking more closely for factual content in order to base my decisions with more
-Flexible workday guidelines to encourage people to start each day at whatever time is best
Waking up early is a struggle for many students. It has also been tested and confirmed that our brains don’t wake up until ten o'clock (Knapton). For example, there has been days when I get out of school at three and I have practice from six to nine. Then, on days that I don’t have practice, I work from four until nine. On a usual weekday, I normally have at least three to four hours of homework to do after these activities. Waking up the
I have goals in my life, just as the great Odysseus had his own goals; Odysseus wanted to return home and slay all of the parasitic suitors, living off his fortune. My goals, on the other hand, are not so gory or dangerous, but it is also tiresome to achieve my altitudinous goals. I want to go to a nationally ranked college in business after I graduate, that is why I am
You also could use a planner to help you remember when things are due and what you have going on that you need to plan around. Say you play a sport and you have to attend a game on Thursday and you have an essay due on Friday. You could plan ahead and get the essay done on Wednesday so all you have to do Thursday is look over it and then Friday you can turn it in. And if it’s already Thursday, you can work on it before the game, on the way to the game, on the way home from the game, and when you get home. You can turn in your work on Friday and not feel stressed and you can have a good time at the Friday night game.
It is very important that I use my time wisely and do not wait until the last minute to have my assignments completed. While I have job, my main priority is to finish school. Cutting my work hours, so I will have more time to focus on my school work, is just a minor thing that will ultimately pay off. I am, however, a huge procrastinator and therefore will have to work hard to keep my priorities well in mind
It's better for me to be early an hour before work because I will be able to relax, talk to my colleages, do
Waking up early is preventing a lot of students from getting the sleep they need.
Ms. Askin: Sometimes I get up early in the morning just to prepare. If you are not prepared, your whole day will go wrong because your students will notice it. I may even have to prepare and catch up on the weekend. You can never be prepared enough.
Critical thinking is something I don’t do very often, sometimes I just judge from looking or listening to what I see or hear but this is something I will learn with time. To learn critical thinking I will follow the steps that are required because critical thinking is something we have to learn because we are not born critical thinking. One is identifying what we are talking about. Then we have to gather information about the theme that we are talking about. The next step is to look for evidence and consider alternatives or other people points of view. Sometimes we do not want to accept what other peoples opinion is about something and that is wrong because we might learn from them. Finally we choose the best possible alternative after we have gone thru all this. Using critical thinking will allow you to make better decisions not only in the work place but also in our day to day lives. Maybe one day you will have to make a life changing decision in your job.
I know have a list of short-term goals that will eventually help me reach my long-term goal of graduating with a business degree.
An obvious goal as a working adult returning to school is, of course, to earn a degree. My overall goal is no different than any other student, however, I also have several personal goals I hope to achieve while attending the University. Some of these goals are to acquire new skills and enhance my current business abilities, to apply what I learn in the classroom to forward my career, and to feel personal satisfaction of finishing something I started.
My second goal is to get an education that will allow me to get a job or a better job. It will also give me job security even though it may not necessary be at the same job but it will allow me the security of knowing that when I decide to move on I do not have to worry about what kind of salary I will be earning .With my degree there are many different opportunities for me.
Early classes seem to be the worst time for college freshman to take a class such as foreign language, but it is better for them at that time verses at a later time. The earliness of the class is what is dreaded most about the eight A.M. Many feel they would function better if they had class at 10 A.M, but the truth is waking up at an earlier time enhances the productivity of the students. According to Health Ambition, “waking up early helps you maintain a healthier diet, enhances your productivity, gives you better mental health, gives you more time to exercise, improves your quality of sleep, and helps you enjoy quiet time.” Waking up earlier makes the day go by quicker. Yes, it would be nice to be able to wake up at 10 or 11 A.M but the tendency to get more tired
