During the sixth week of my HUMI 1 class, I decided to focus my attention on “Doing”. Usually when you want to accomplish something, you tend to do something. It is only common sense that if you do something, you will get somewhere with what you do. However, it is not always that case that you will always get what you want by continuously doing. Sometimes you just have to “be” instead “doing” sometimes. As I proceeded to look into the topic of “Doing,” I immediately thought of studying as a scenario in which doing and being are both required. During the week in which I looked into “Doing,” I had a midterm exam coming up for my forensic anthropology class. There was a lot of information that needed to be memorized for my midterm and I had approximately …show more content…
However, being stubborn and persistent at the same time is not always the best situation to be in. To relax myself, I took a walk and a nap rather than continuously stressing myself out. After some period of time, I went back to skateboarding and attempting to land the trick I learned. I was not successful in the beginning, but I was definitely more focused and relaxed, allowing me to eventually land the trick after a short period of time. During these two experiments, I was able to come to the realization that there is a time to “do” and a time to “be”. By doing something you will most commonly make progress, however you will not always get where you want. Being persistent with a sense of motivation will get you places. From personal experience, I always assumed that if you do something, you will get somewhere and what you want. However, by not doing anything or taking a step back in a time of need, it helped me achieve what I want. The way that I look at the two, both are equally as important and useful in their own situations and time of need. Knowing when to do something and when to take a break will allow for us to inevitably achieve what we

We must obey my order as I give them. Get the oarshafts in your hands, and lay back hard on your benches; hit these breaking seas”(934-935). In the same way that Odysseus showed persistence, I showed it in my own life. For example, once when I was in seventh grade, I was down in a wrestling match 2-8, down by 6, but I didn’t give up. In the last few seconds, I used every muscle in my body, and pinned the guy I was wrestling.
In different ways both Giles and I show our stubbornness. For GIles unfortunately, his stubbornness cost him his life. While in jail Giles was accused of witchcraft, he had not said aye or nay and in result was pressed to death. I too share such a trait. One time I was also obstinate wit a game. I came upon a point this game I was playing, I had to solve a puzzle. Instead of looking it up and making it easier on myself, I sat there for an hour or two to figure it out. Other times I’m like this is with my school work. Say for geometry I have homework that I don’t understand. I will fail at it numerous times but either turn in what i have done or keep trying until I do understand it.
Paired comparisons may be from one individual – before and after samples - or from different individuals who have been matched for some characteristic, e.g. sex, age, height etc. In this question, we are looking at “healthcare workers”. The needle-stick observations of healthcare workers share a link that makes them similar to one another and allows the researcher to “compare” needle-stick injuries in various settings, e.g. “all healthcare facilities” including in community and tertiary-care hospitals.
There are several techniques one can use to integrate deliberate practice into their education and career. When it comes to college, or any level of education deliberate practice can help a student fully understand a concept, or learn something new. It involves more than just completing a test or assignment. You have to give it your all, and not just think of it as finishing an assignment and being done with it. To fully integrate this type of learning into your education you have to change your mindset. A lot of students go to class, learn, take notes, and do homework, but plenty do it with the intentions of getting done. They don’t do the homework with the goal of understanding the subject, or ask for
Disillusioned Latin students, who cringe at the thought of repeatedly scribbling their grammar, are often told by their teachers, "Per repitio nos studiare," which translates to "through repetition we learn." Though this may seem hard to believe as their hands begin to cramp, it bears a certain amount of truth. As my grandfather once told me, "Experience is often the best teacher." Truly gaining an understanding of something often comes from repeated involvement.

Immediately after we are born, we start picking up sounds; the sound of our mother’s voice, the music playing in the elevator on the way to the car, and the happy cheers from a small child seeing their new sibling for the first time. We are always listening–picking up on conversations not meant for our ears, eavesdropping on the gossip of the adult world, and finding the meaning in the portentous silence. From all these auditory stimuli, we piece together the world around us to better understand what is happening to us, around us, and the secret happenings that were not for us to know. Great writers are the ones who listen and say nothing–who take it all in and save their classified information for a day when all the right words flow and form one epic story of the wondrous world we live in.

“Persistence guarantees that results are inevitable.” - Paramahansa Yogananda. Persistence is an important trait to have as it allows one to push through adversity, accomplish tasks that they would not be able to if one did not have the trait of persistence. As defined by Merriam Webster Dictionary persistence means the quality that allows someone to continue doing something or trying to do something even though it is difficult or opposed by other people. The modern word persistence originates from the latin word persistent meaning continuing steadfastly. Persistence is the ability to repeatedly strive for success after being knocked down and never give up, to keep going when everything else is telling one to quit. Persistence is
