He had answered many of my questions about my faith and what I believe is real. This does not mean that this book has changed my values and views of my religion, however has made me a more devote person to my religion. I agree with Paine as well that we are always contradicting ourselves. With my church group, we always say that we fit the Bible stories to fit and suit our need, but always show our true devotion. These stories are to be taken with a grain of salt and not to be take as seriously as they are being taken.
Timing is very important, we need to give a reward (praise, stickers, extra attention) straight after they have done something good, otherwise it will be forgotten by the child very quickly. We need to make sure children understand why they are praised. It is not necessary to give a reward every time, as it is more likely that they show good
Grant, however, finds it hard to have faith in religion, instead sticking to a more realistic way of thinking. Even though he has faith in his people, throughout the novel he questions himself, wondering if anything in their way of life will ever change. He remembers how his
There are no secrets one can use to become successful. Success truly is the result of preparation, hard work and learning from failure. Preparation is a key component of success. Gladwell states, “Achievement is talent plus preparation” (38). While Gladwell’s statement is generally true, psychologists argue that preparation plays a bigger role in achievement
By being independent individuals we don’t have to wait on other peoples support or permission to do certain things. We don’t have to go out of our way to please somebody else because we do as we want. When we are independent our confidence meter starts to rise up, it gives us that extra boost of motivation we desire to achieve new things. I believe that we are the creators of our own life, that we all have the same power to start and finish new goals but only a few have the actual strength and correct mind set to do it. Equality 7-2521 says that “the guiding star is within me” and that it points to just one direction, and that direction is “me”.
As well as rules for when, how often they must worship and go into the community. Nonetheless, they believe that this is a necessity in their life and for their salvation. While speaking to both of the people that were interviewed they seemed to have almost the exact answers as the other. This religion is very strict and does not have room questions nor does it have room to have different answers. They all read the same material, and as it is in my paper earlier even questioning what they are told has severe consequences.
Should not part of this research process be conducted within a certain period of time, if your keywords and topic are “just right”. On the other hand, maybe not, maybe just not having posses this skill longer enough nor have I applied it often enough to have the confidence needed. Research is a critical skill and one not obtained within one assignment. I strongly encourage all of you to practice, practice, and practice researching topics that interest you. Experience, I feel is key to building confidence in most areas of our lives, research appears to be no

A new door in life allows for new opportunities, which allows for personal growth, which results in ones successes in life. To be successful one must discover who they are as a person and whether or not they make decisions based on their race or on being comfortable with hard physical labor and very little
Most people fight for there religion everyday, how they should have the same freedom as everyone else while others don't agree. Imagine if you had grown up following a religion, that you thought was the only way to live, and then one day the government decides to make a law that doesn't follow or allow in the ways
The speaker is saying that we can never understand life itself. I think that the first stanza talks about life in general and maybe religion. ‘And when we try to eavesdrop on the great Presences it is rarely… even a phrase entirely,’ the speaker mentions great Presences which suggests that in life there is something or someone of higher power. However, we only ‘eavesdrop’ on this topic and if we look at the big picture, it doesn’t make sense hence it is not ‘even a phrase entirely’. Also, when we eavesdrop on something, we don’t hear the whole conversation sometimes and when we retell what we hear, and as it gets passed from person to person, the story becomes different.
