Selected Citations from Poor Richard's Almanack “None but the well-bred man knows how to confess a fault, or acknowledge himself in an error.” and “How few there are who have courage enough to own their Faults, or resolution enough to mend them!” These quotations basically mean that most people don't like to look inside themselves and see their flaws. A well-bred and courageous person sees who they are and acknowledges it without getting discouraged or insecure. The second part means that most people go on with their lives dealing with their flaws and trying to fix them to make themselves a better person. We all know that as humans it is in our nature that we make mistakes and faults but few of us have the guts to acknowledge their faults. These quotes is relevant to me that in every fault or failure I make I don’t have to be defensive about it but accept these mistakes and to use them as stepping stone to improve myself and change for the better.

These factors that many think that could be adversarial are race, gender, sexual orientation, and pedigree. Those people believe that all those components will be a problem to some who think that just working hard is enough to become successful. Although many people such as Horatio Alger, the author of “Ragged Dick”, have different opinions on how an individual can accomplish something in life, everyone achieves success differently.

Staples opinion on affirmative action sticks solidly to the views that I withhold. Many times we don’t realize that a lot of things we learn are simply things taught by not only by the people or things around us, but in a way things are often taught by ourselves.

A persons IQ and their emotional intelligence are not opposite abilities, but they are separate ones. We all mix our intelligence and our emotions in everyday doings. With that being said there are individuals that have a high IQ but they have a very low emotional intelligence, these individuals are very rare individuals, because usually with a high IQ comes a persons ability to recognize their own or others emotional intelligence.

Managers must supervise their employees, and they must also handle situations and help motivate their employees to make them more productive individuals.
That is not the case, most people need a reason that is satisfying to them to reach a higher level of performance. There are also people that are not interested nor do they need motivating factors, they are completely happy with just being given a task and performing that task and going home. Each person needs performance, rewards, satisfaction, or consequences to be induced to reach the next level.
