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”.
For example there is a form of beauty, which explains why we can all understand and know what beauty is, without the need to be told every time. However, we have our own opinions on what beauty it. This is because we don’t know forms fully, as only our souls (our only eternal aspect) is part of the Realm of the Forms and the concept gets mixed as we are not perfect. The Form of the good is 100% good, perfect, unchanging, eternal and outside this world. Plato’s definition of good is not the same as the good we define.
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
I am content when people tell others I am a trustworthy, and accomplished individual. Numerous people probably count on me to tell them about information updates, or due dates. Competition I often unravel perplexing ideas, problems, or puzzles. I usually continue working until i discover how something operates. I think much faster when I know someone else is trying to understand how the same thing functions.
Throughout history, authority figures have been commonplace in virtually every society; however, resistance to the aforementioned authority has not been. Just as Stanley Milgram illustrates in his book, Obedience to Authority, I too believe that it is far easier for a subject to comply with what he or she is told than to rebel against rules and protocol. In this paper, I will argue that those who are subjected to authority inherently fail to oppose it, and succumb to it by nature. Resistance is hard to come by, and at times when it is present, it comes under many positions and precursors before it that led up to it. Reasons for lack of resistance and tendency towards compliance include, but are not limited to, fear of disruption of power structure
The target is rewarded with a promotion within the group to higher levels and/or a new authority. The individual feels that not being perfect seems like a deserving punishment. In the aura of sacred science method, the beliefs and regulations of the group are framed as perfect, absolute and non-negotiable, creating an aura of perfection. All the rules and processes of the group are supposedly scientifically correct,
Philosophy: the love of wisdom The study of first causes, the ultimate nature of things. Because philosophical principles are ultimate/primary, there is nothing that precedes them. Knowledge is associated with science (to know) – person has science not by knowing a fact, but the reasoning for the fact, or cause. Wisdom is knowledge through causes – knowledge of first causes. Wisdom does not require any kind of experience beyond normal experience.
How do we become knowledge workers within our own organizations? Hammer (2004) suggests that we are entering an age where we will all be knowledge workers. I find some truth in that because we are always learning from our peers, our employees, and our supervisors. But it is necessary for us to know where that newfound knowledge comes from by finding its source. I am the type of person who wants to know everything and be the best at every task I perform, and doing the necessary work to identify the appropriate source of information will make that task just a bit easier.
When conducted honestly and thoroughly, the scientific method can and has provided valuable information about the world and the world’s people (Jackson, 2009). Though some people rely on other methods for gaining knowledge, scientists only accept knowledge gained through science to arrive at plausible truths (Jackson, 2009). Due in part to human error and the tendency of human nature to succumb to temptations to bias research, the results of the scientific method should be viewed with skepticism (Garzon, n.d.). The scientific method of seeking knowledge and finding truth must stay within the limits of scientific ability and allow for human fragility in order to be effective (Slick, 2012). References Garzon, F. (n.d.).
The argument that supports this idea the most is the fatalism argument - the idea that everything is predetermined before we are born and our actions do not affect this. This theory is referred to as hard determinism If this is true, then the claim that we do not have free will seems fairly convincing. However there are more ways of looking at determinism through soft determinism and libertarianism. Broadly speaking, determinism is the position that every event could not have had another outcome, and therefore any decisions that we make as humans do not impact this ultimate outcome. This clearly is supportive of the title statement as if true, then all outcomes are already decided and therefore our decisions are similarly already decided by some sort of greater power.
