History repeats itself The world is full of many mysteries, and things that happen, and people do not know how to explain them. However, as the popular mantra goes, “History repeats itself.” One can find answers to the present by looking at the past as many past occurrences and happenings at present are a result of past conditions. Language is a critical issue that existed in the past, exists in the present, and will exist in the future. Language has the ability to cause inequalities in society and is, therefore, considered a powerful tool. Colonialism is the other concept that existed in the past but affects the present and the future. Its consequences are inevitable, and it is closely intertwined with language and capitalism. Capitalism is a result of colonialism that occurred in the past. It is still applicable in the present and is also likely to affect the future. To walk backwards into the future is a concept that emphasizes the importance of time. The concepts argue that the past, the present, and the future are intertwined, and they…

 self-control is influenced internally Question 1 People often believe self-control is influenced internally, but many times, we act depending on what our family members or friends do. Those who are around us can change our behaviours by inducing us to follow theirs such as developing a passion for a sport that a family member loves or liking a specific type of food because your friends eat it every time you hang out together (Cascio, Scholz, & Falk, 2015). However, there is a little more than peer pressure, where a person chooses to act in a way that fits them in a particular group. It happens subconsciously. Beneath the person’s awareness, the brain continuously gathers cues from the surrounding people to inform his or her behaviour (Forgas & Williams, 2016). And it can have significant implications. In my case, a group of my peer friends influenced me to start drinking, even though I had never taken alcohol before. Every time we hang out together, they would buy a few bottles of beer, but I was the only one who did not…

Can Someone with Low Self-Esteem Be at Risk to Depression             Depression is a condition which limits individuals’ efficiency and leads to loss of interest and moods, since it affects the normal functioning of their bodies, thus bringing out some negative symptoms. This condition is a result of the association of different reactions, such as mental, genetic, and social sources of distress within a person. On the other hand, low self-esteem is brought by the lack of confidence within oneself, which can lead to self-hatred. Many debates have come up, arguing whether the possibilities of experiencing depression are a result of low self-esteem.

Self reflective essay As a manager of a senior living community and a student pursuing business administration, studying management principles play an essential part in leadership. Recently, various organizations are collapsing due to the lack of people with proper management skills. Management principles entail several sectors that coordinate as one. Management principles encompass division of work, disciple, unity of direction, order, degree of centralization, and responsibility. As a business administrator in the making, before I took the class on management principles, I had little knowledge about why business administrators and other stakeholders in the business world should pursue such a course. Initially, I thought to attend a class on management principles was a waste of time; in my view, management principles were so obvious, and anybody could understand them easily. Therefore, there was no need to waste time studying management principles. However, after attending a lecture on management principles, my view of the unit changed. I realized that a more in-depth knowledge of management principles was useful in team management, division of labor, promoting responsibility among all team members, and…

Self-assessment through Leadership Application   Discuss a time when you lost trust in a leader, and describe the impact that experience had on your relationship. The last time I lost trust in a leader was when my departmental head at work, Bob, asked me to give him a hand in helping his high school friend, Tim, create a website for his new online business. I was one of the “juniors” in the company given my young age and inexperience, but I had already become friends (or so I thought) with Bob, who had mentioned that he liked my “raw skills and wizardry” in computer projects. Regularly, Tim should have visited the company for assistance with his needs. Still, he had decided to strike a “friendship transaction” with Bob, so his project would be handled over the weekends or when Tim had “free time” outside the office hours. Tim picked me for the project, but I ended doing the lion’s share of the tasks as he missed or only made “technical appearances” in two of the four sessions that we used…

For a long time, I have observed that whenever I have a task, I start the work in a jovial mood. However, this enthusiasm wanes since I find myself watching movies or playing video games. Fridays and weekends are even worse since I go out with friends to a party. With time running out, I always end up with accumulated work.
