Question 1 Habitudes that had the most marks in the “like me” pile a) Security. Advantages of your dominant Habitude most like you. The ability to have lifestyle choices now and in the future, I shop wisely and having access to money during emergencies. How advantages help you. Being financially secure gives people the ability to live the life they want to. When one has money, it is possible to access the different lifestyle choices however expensive they may be. Money makes one plan to get a better

Status. Social hierarchy. Importance in the world. These three words all mean the same thing, in their own respective ways. Whether it be the number of yams in one’s barn, or the number of Ferraris in their garage, they are both indicative of how successful one is. This is especially true in Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe, as well as in the modern world of today; however, this does not prevent them from being very good, or possibly very bad (depending on how they are obtained). In Okonkwo’s

“Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity.”(W. Clement Stone). A school is a place where you challenge your mind. It is a place where you gain knowledge. You need to have integrity to be successful in school. Academic integrity helps schools confront problems such as cheating, plagiarism, and encourage honesty. Cheating is often defined as acting dishonest or unfairly to gain

there are significant differences in what is acceptable based off of the part of the world. Different cultures have different views and opinions on what is socially and morally acceptable. However, some values are applicable to all human beings regardless of time period or culture. Moral values are not all universal and can change or evolve over time. Through world history what has been considered socially acceptable has changed significantly. As recently as the 1960’s capital punishment was known

What has value? To some it’s trust and loyalty, and others it’s money or social rank. There can be value in someone’s possessions, like a family heirloom or tradition. In the story “The Gift of the Magi” the main characters value each other, and in “The Necklace” the main character values social status. For this paper I’m going to be comparing these two stories as well as finding their differences. “The Gift of the Magi” is about a couple trying to buy each other the perfect Christmas gift.

Integrity is defined as doing the right thing even when no one is watching and holding others to the same standard. Hal and Lois would do anything to get a babysitter for young Dewey. However, babysitters refuse to sit the boys whenever their parents go away due to their misbehavior. They were found welcome to one of the babysitting agencies because they lifted their ban on the family And after many tries of getting a babysitter they finally found one. They sidestepped questions until they

Mother Night Questions By: Andre Lawrence 1) Integrity is the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles. 2) Howard Campbell compromises his integrity when he decides to never tell his wife that he is a spy, in order to protect his identity. He said “My Helga believed I meant the things I said about the races of man and the machines of history, and I was grateful. No matter what I was really, no matter what I really meant, uncritical love was what I needed — and my Helga was the

“A nation's culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of the people”-Mahatma Gandhi. I find this quote to be very true because how people see and interact with the world is based on one's culture. How I see this quote is that no matter where you live or move in the world your culture got you there by the decisions you or others around you made. While it is often easy to forget about one's culture and the impact it has, culture consistently informs the way one views others and the world. This

Moral values are the ethics and values that help oneself to a righteous life; humanity is protected by the morals of society preventing individuals from acting savage. Jack, a power-loving violent boy is a prime example of how insufficient moral values can change one’s demeanor and character in William Golding’s Lord of the Flies. Although some might say nobody is born evil, there is evil within everyone. Most children grow up learning about moral values and learn the importance, but once taken

Culture is the building block for life. It sets society's standards, it sets our own standards, and everything we know is all because of our culture. Culture is a way of thinking, a way of behaving and learning. We express our opinions based upon our beliefs, and define ourselves by what aspects of our culture we choose to show. Culture's impact on someone's perspective of others and the world is greater than its other influences because it can change how you interact with people, your ability to
