Positive Influences In Research

Failing in various areas in life can give people a negative outlook on their own achievements. When failure strikes, people can become discouraged by their lack of achievements and give up. According to In Praise of Failure: The Value of Overcoming Mistakes in Sports and in Life by Mark Anshel, the author was a failure in numerous activities he wrote about in his book. “ I am not a failure (as a person); I failed at something” (Ashnel). This is a positive perspective on

All too often we do not think about our personal strength until a situation arises that causes us to use this natural attribute that we know as strength.

When I look at the word failure I didn’t see success. But that slowly changed as I read the book What the Best College Students Do by Ken Bain Chapter four. Bain, for me and I’m sure many other, have changed our view point on failure being a bad thing. He instead expressed failure as an “opportunity to learn something.” (121) As infants we grow and develop, we learn to walk by falling down a couple hundred times, and we learn to speak by babbling. By trying to walk, and trying to talk, we may fail at first. As an infant, you cannot give up when you are face to face with failure. You must get up and try again to learn. In the book, What the Best College Students Do by Ken Bain he uses people’s experiences and research to explain why failure is an opportunity to learn something new, rather than seeing failure as something bad. He asserts “people who become highly creative and productive learn to acknowledge failures, even to embrace them, and to explore and learn from them.” (100) Failure is important. If we did not get up and try again as infants, we would not be where we are today.

Strength is that part of your intellect or nervous system that is more effective and productive than other parts. Throughout your experience of life, your actions or reactions drive different thoughts, behavior and emotion in your brain. The requests that are processed more efficiently and rapidly are known as your strengths. Nowadays, strengths-based approaches to work and life are gaining a lot of popularity and often they are used to improve leadership and create more productive and efficient work teams.

Have you ever failed in your life just once? Did that effect you in the sense of which you should being in the right track? The majority of people think that failure is the indication to improperly way of doing the things. Nevertheless, without failure taking place in our life, people were not getting to the evolution and modern science which facilitated human life in all aspects. Failure often makes unpleasant journey or spirit to the people but, it helps in the way to change and create magnificent success that would never thought about. Although that people have ideas and ambition to be successful, failure plays a significant role in their ability to achieve success.

Failure is a part of life. While many see failure as a negative thing, I have started to see it as a situation that can make you a better person. Failure drives me to never make that mistake again. I first realized this when I took my first AP class and AP exam and received a score of 2. This journey all started sophomore year when I took AP World History. I quickly learned that I needed to actually read and take notes to be able to succeed in the class. It took a few poor grades on essays and tests for me to understand this. Despite this new revelation, I still struggled in the class. When it came time to start reviewing and preparing for the exam, I put an immense amount of effort, but not as hard as I should’ve been. Exam day came and

No matter what happens in life, having strength and perseverance is a great thing to have. Knowing that having strength, you can overcome anything, you can do anything. For example, in Fever, 1793, when the character's grandfather passes away, the main character, Mattie, uses strength to overcome his death and help care for others in need. Having strength can get you through anything like how Mattie overcame Grandfather's death with strength. It is a great thing to have because strength can get you through anything.

These failures help make the person stronger and have a better outlook on their

Furthermore, strength is my last great accomplishment. To prove this point, strength mean that you are strong no matter what people say. As illustration, once a person told me that I should quit learning. My strength made me do what I really want to do.

Failure is something that we cannot go through life without experiencing. The best thing about failure is that failure can be used as a great learning experience to improve upon things in our lives and career. Using failure as a learning tool is dependent upon the person and how they view it as well as how they use it. Failure is a matter of perspective and the lessons in failure are important aspects towards growth and development. If we did not experience failure there wouldn’t be opportunities for learning. Failure can teach us about ourselves as well as provide an understanding for our

Many personal experiences and influences can cause skewed results in any research study I do. I have to ask myself questions such as, How does my religion, gender, age, where I am from, background, political affiliation, socio-economic status, group of friends, etc. influence the way I think about this group? How could that influence how I conduct my research? Also, why does this matter? The findings of my studies, in the research on polygamist societies, will influence whether their marriages will be legally recognized in the United States.

Learning from mistakes is very important in life. Making a mistake is in everyday life and everybody makes them. But the main thing to do is to learn from them so that you will not do them again. Every time you make a mistake there is always potential to grow and mature

Failure often times leads a person to feel helpless, disappointed and depressed. However,one should not allow this to set them back in trying to achieve the ultimate aim one has set out to do. Failure in the beginning can often be a powerful incentive to reassess one’s position in wanting to achieve the particular aims; to analyse whether the purpose is worth the trouble the person has to undergo and the whether the obstacles are surmountable.

Traditionally, failure is seen as a negative concept and is defined as lacking success. I, on the other hand, try to put a positive spin on everything in life. I see failure as an obstacle that is experienced by all, but it does not define an individual. Failure in essence will force an individual to be more receptive to their surroundings and actions and also will force an individual to mature. Looking back on my childhood years I can now pinpoint the areas where I failed and I can confidently say that I have grown and prospered due to those failures. The three major failures I have experienced were my attention deficit issues which affected my ability to succeed in school, my anti-social habit that I let consume my early years, and my

To be strong is to strive to be the most formidable person you can be without hesitation. It also means to know you’re not actually strong, that it’s okay to rely on people. All of my experiences in my short sixteen years of life taught me this. When asked who made me the person I am, I cannot simply tell you one person helped me to turn out this way. Every person I have ever met, every experience I’ve had with them has contributed. However, I can tell you who I relied on when I knew I wasn’t as tough as I’d like to be. I can tell you of my beloved mother who taught me some of the most important things in my life and is still encouraging and influencing me.
