However, I always feel that they won’t learn if not given a chance to try and improve themselves. I tend to also be very confident in my own work. I trust myself first and foremost. I’m not close to constructive criticism or getting help form others. However, I like to be a leader because I feel that at the end of the day, even if I do incorporate the ideas of others, the end results should come from me in order to reassure myself that
I have become so accustomed to seeing these types of instances daily that I do not even question it anymore. That is what bothers me the most. The fact that I am unable to locate an image that challenges me, or my perception of reality, is what I would consider to be the most challenging in, and of, itself. I did not realize this until I sat down and attempted to think of a suitable topic to address in this paper. I fear that this is not what was intended with this assignment, but I can not find anything else that is more challenging to me.
Towards the end of the chapter he provides strategies and exercises that we can practice and use in order to change our Perfectionism ways. The Pursuit of Perfect by Tal Ben-Shahar Are you constantly trying to keep up with your busy and sometimes stressful life while at the same time striving for happiness? We all want a perfect life but in reality and as most of us know, there is no such thing. We work so hard on something and we sometimes get let down and we often feel like a failure. In the Pursuit of Perfect by Tal Ben-Shahar, he sheds some light into the possibility of obtaining a happy life even with the struggles and challenges that may come our way.
The ones I think need to be further developed are interpersonal skills, because even though I’m good at getting along I sometimes tend to stick more to myself than socializing with others, and thinking strategically because I don’t always look at the big picture. I gained self-motivation just recently when I realized my life was going nowhere and only I could change it. I believe I have always had inquisitiveness because I have always questioned everything. I have flexibility because I can adapt to change in an easy manner with no issues. I just recently started working on the weekends, I don’t always know if I’m working or what time I’m starting, The cleaning service I work through (my boss) will call if she needs me.
I usually see myself as a good person with high self-esteem and that I like helping people out. With this event it showed me that I really don’t care about community service and that I could live with not helping people except those close to myself. Also it showed me that I really don’t have as high of self-esteem as I thought. I am not the one to usually be the first one to start up a conversation. For the event I had to end up talking to everyone that was running in warrior dash and I hated it.
The Ethical Lens Inventory also implies that my blind spot is that I believe that motive justifies method. It says that I may unintentionally cause people upset and pain because I am so focused on my good motive, and that I tend to believe that ethnics is a set of universal rules that everyone should follow, just as I do. I believe that my strengths are that I will always perform my duties to satisfy the goal of my employer on my own and without supervision. I’m not dependent on a team or group. I feel my weaknesses would be that I may come across to others as bossy and everyone will be held
This also allows him to present his thesis, “Another huge problem, and one that is really our personal responsibility, is our lack of exercise and physical activity. Physical exercise is one place where we truly can make a difference in our lives.” His thesis is effective in a way that he builds ethos by how he says that it is “our” responsibility. He doesn’t direct this at the readers as if he is not one of them. He acknowledges that he is one of us and this is a “we” thing. He tells the reader that he is just as responsible for his own physical activity as everyone else.
They are usually the ones that get things done when they should be done, they are very punctual, and are often times the ones determined to come out on top. At the same time, having a directive personality can restrain a lot of people from doing the things they would like to do, often people tell me that I’m the most unapproachable person at my work, and I hate the idea that people aren’t able to tell me exactly what’s going on at my work or if they were to have a problem I would be the last to know. According to the behaviors displayed in the excess zone, I can openly admit that I am a very determined
Another weakness would be confidence, I know I am capable of doing the work but sometimes I doubt myself and my capabilities especially in the O.R. setting, I need to work on not allowing other individuals such as surgeons, reps, or nurses frazzle me to the point where I am not able to do my job like I am normally able to do. My first plan to improve my weakness of life interference I have already started to implement and the solution is to put myself in a better situation work extremely hard pray and work harder and make better choices slow down and think before acting make logical decisions not ones based off of emotion only. A way to improve my confidence weakness is to treat the O.R. like any other x-ray scenario, make sure I am familiar with the equipment prior to going into surgery and get familiar with the types of surgeries I will be doing.
He left them being known as one of the nicest everyday-person to meet and how he always looked up, as he didn’t want to dwell on something that was out of his control. But what is cooler is that he wanted to leave us all something to think about and hopefully use once he is gone physically. So he decided to share his thoughts. Like he mentioned near the beginning of his lecture, “We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.” Thinking about what I would leave people is pretty tough, since I still have a lot to learn and am not wise and experienced yet. I have to work on it, but the legacy I want to leave is to find your own self-happiness so you may share that with others.
