Personal Progress Project For a long time, I have been struggling with the need to become physically fit. After seeing my relatives suffer as a result of leading a sedentary life, I have been motivated to engage in physical activities to improve my health and well-being. However, as it is known to most, exercising and observing strict dieting practices is quite challenging. The fear of becoming obese or contracting cardiovascular diseases has motivated me enough to get out of my couch and hit the floor. Besides, it is a bad feeling to look older than you really are. Although exercising and observing a strict diet is difficult, I am ready to challenge myself and begin the regime. From the situation in my family, my level of motivation is 9 in that I am highly motivated to break the chain of obesity, heart attack, and related lifestyle diseases.

Considering I am a first-time…

Management and leadership Leadership has numerous definitions. One definition, according to Warren Bennis, is that it is a function of understanding oneself and having vision communicated in the desired manner. It also involves building trust among the staff and the taking of effective action with a view of realising one’s leadership potential. Similarly, the definition is similar to Northouse, who highlights that leadership is a process of influencing individual or group of people aimed at achieving a common goal (Townsend, 2019). In contrast to Warren and Northouse definition, Peter Drucker views that leadership involves lifting one’s vision, building their personality and raising their performance by using power. Management from old French perspective is viewed as the art of leading or directing either part or entire organisation through manipulation or deployment of resources. In modern business, management is defined as an organisational process which entails strategic planning and management of resources based on deployment of financial and human assets. Such a definition is similar to the French perspective since both are based on the management of the resources. However, in analytic…

Planning Suburban Public Spaces for Youths Background information of the idea Public spaces such as squares, sidewalks, parks, and community sports zones are threatened by the continuous erection of all buildings especially in countries with growing economy such as Canada. Maintenance and redevelopment of such public spaces provides a fundamental foundation for a thriving community (UNICEF, 2014b). A city where youths go to parks to relax, engage in conversation with their peers, take pictures and selfies to rejuvenate there social life provides a basis for a healthy lifestyle (Ryan & Borden, 2006). At the rate which urban development is growing public spaces are becoming more in inaccessible during certain periods of the year. Inaccessibility is due to the rapid population growth that most cities are experiencing currently. There is an ongoing global discussion on what public spaces are (Stiglitz, 2003). Individuals who have been in the leading front to champion for public spaces, which in different countries are considered as green spaces, are the environmentalists. Many people are not aware of what public space entails, and this is a feature…

Homeopathy Introduction In this paper, I will be discussing Homeopathy in detail. I will look at the homeopathy origin, its concept, any existing research on homeopathy. I will also discuss the controversies surrounding the therapy of homeopathy and the criticism of the treatment. The use of homeopathy in treating many illnesses increased in the 19th because of the success it had in epidemic outbreaks. Several clinical research shows that homeopathy is effective in curing some symptoms and help in improving the lives of patients.
