My Work Ethic

Nellie Bly was an American journalist who is widely known for her record breaking trip around the world. She started with working for the Pittsburgh Dispatch, where she wrote about the lives of working women and investigated articles of women factory workers. Later on Nellie worked on my Asylum Exposé, where she took an undercover assignment for which she agreed to feign insanity to investigate reports of brutality and neglect at the Women’s Lunatic Asylum. Nellie’s report about the experience was later published as Ten days in a Madhouse, which prompted the asylum to implement reforms. Then she took her trip around the world. Bly turned the fictional Around the World in Eighty Days into fact for the first time.

College Athletes Why are professional athletes paid, but collegiate athletes are not? If they get paid, then collegiate athletes should get paid for playing the sport that they play too. Reasons being that if the athlete goes professional in his or her sport they will end up getting paid anyways. Also the National Collegiate Athletic Association or NCAA makes millions off of these players, and they get nothing. However, some people say that education should be the number one priority of a school.

I cannot attribute my strong work ethic to any particular experience in my life, as I have strived to exceed the requirements, whether it be academic, musical, or athletic, ever since I could walk and talk. In school, I have always approached my assignments, projects, and tests with a perfectionist fanaticism. There has always been something rather satisfying with maintaining good grades, however, more deeply rooted in my academic approach has been my desire to learn and develop. Over the years, I have taken every spoonful of intellectual medicine that has ever been fed to me by my teachers with somewhat of a resolute spirit, as if I was doing so would prove that I could master any academic matter thrown my way. I do not regret getting above a 4.0 every semester of high school—I am proud of how my hard work has payed off.

In 2000, the World Health Organization, a branch of the United Nations, rated the world’s health care systems. France was at the top of the list and the “greatest country in the world” , i.e. America, was ranked thirty-eighth. It has been fourteen years since that ranking and France still has the best health care system in the world, while the United States has been left in the dust. The United States of America needs to emulate the health care system of France because of its affordability for the average citizen, efficient use of resources, and overall quality of care.

For me competence is a driving core value in my work ethic, as it drives close to my infatuation with order and controls. I enjoy working in teams and, helping people accomplish goals while increasing efficiency along with work place moral. Currently in my work place I am known as a “big brother” figure, as I am bother caring on a personal level but also am able to help further develop my co-works in a friendly manner. I take charge in training new hire employees, helping them better work our systems while gaining a more in depth understand of their part in our work team. For me going to work is most enjoyable when I’m helping the team operate at a better level.

Growing up, I was a child who encountered many hardships. As I came to an age to begin realizing an underprivileged childhood I lived, I learned overlook it and live on. I began to ask myself “What does it take to live a lifestyle of true comfort financially?” This is a question which I reflect on every day and is one which motivates me to flourish. Raised by a single mother within a lower economic class, we often ran into very tough times. At one point we had to completely pack up and relocate and live in my grandfather’s house. Discomfort cannot describe the reality or feeling, however we were blessed to have Family, family that we could rely on. At the age of 14, I set a goal that would require my best work to become a successful financial advisor. I will not let my childhood define my future; rather I will control my destiny through my experiences and my accomplishments as a result of work ethic.

My hopes for the future is being able to use the knowledge I gain on this class and being able to apply it on my daily work ethic. In addition., that I can used this project and use it as a recommendation on one of my meeting and do a presentation about it so my employer see the importance in making an action to help that the issues of retaining nurses need a change as soon as possible .

In this essay I will be answering several questions about five different Microculture groups and will be providing my personal feelings towards each one. This essay is not meant to push my feelings or opinions on to anyone or to even say my culture is better than yours, but to mealy show how we as a society can live among each other but view the other cultures around us completely different. The five microculture groups I have chosen are Rich people, Poor people, Persons with disabilities, Homosexual women and Homosexual men. The first three “feeling” words I have come to mind when I think about Rich people as a microculture are, arrogant, above the law, and snooty.

Seize the day!   This is my motto.   My life is driven by my work ethic and immense desire to succeed, every single day.   I have grown up with the understanding that application is just as important as knowledge itself.   Throughout my life I have pushed myself to achieve whatever I set my mind to, regardless of the difficulties I face.

Being born and raised in a Roman Catholic household, attending private Catholic educational institutions up until middle school, and being an altar boy has taught me all about character formation and commitment to the common good. I have set aside some goals, both personal and academic, which I believe will help me grow both intellectually and personally throughout college. I am an extremely hard-working individual; I am never satisfied with being “average.” I strive to push myself out of my comfort zone regarding academics. I would much rather take a hard course that requires lots of effort and lots of time spent studying to earn a B+ as opposed to taking a class which requires no effort to end up with an A.

Since I started my studies in nursing, my strong work ethic and good study habits have followed me through my path. I graduated with a 3.75 GPA from El Paso Community college with an Associate degree in Nursing and 3.84 GPA from the University of Texas at El Paso, Magna Cum Laude High honors Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I am aware graduate studies are a new challenge and an opportunity to expand my knowledge. I have prepared for this new challenge in many ways. My current director is aware of my interest in the quest for of a master’s degree and is supportive.

Enthusiasm makes me feel completely full of vibrancy. It is one of the bases of bliss. Ardor gives me a chance to captivate profoundly in things that matter profoundly. In light of the fact that I am heartfelt, I have more vigor for my hunts. Enthusiasm uplifts my mindfulness and mental sharpness. I come to be all the more physically proficient. . Enthusiasm regularly is infectious, which makes it an extraordinary administration quality. My Enthusiasm in my current setting has caused me to take charge with little to no supervision. I believe this has put a star in my crown when it come to my position as a Activity coordinator. I have been entrusted with various and many task because of my enthusiasm and passion Another strength in my current setting is a strong network. I am finding that the network system is getting stronger day by day as I continue in my weeks of my setting. The network contacts have been made available to myself and I am able to reach out and touch them if and when they are needed and they are current and are very knowledgeable in the line of business. The network system is built up with other adult daycare centers and former adultdaycareworkers whom have expert advice and resources of information. Another strength is I like to keep my personal work space well organized. I also regularly seek feedback on work performance from my supervisors. I sometime obtain feedback from clients or customers.

Bilbo, Gandalf, and Smaug are examples of character archetypes. For example, Bilbo represents the hero. Gandalf represents the mentor. Smaug’s archetype is the threshold guardian. These functions or roles are like makeup that the characters wear in the story. In ‘The Hobbit’, Bilbo, Gandalf and Smaug play roles that help develop suspense in the story.

If I were to use one word to summarize my past, my failures and successes, my future goals, and my personality I would use the word sports. I know this is supposed to be a reflection about school this year, but sports impacted who I was as a student this year. As an athlete I learned how to work hard, work through failure, and how to have an effective routine. This year for hockey I also learned that I have to make sacrifices to make time to practice, for instance I had to practice in the mornings to get time on the ice. I had to wake up and get in my car that reeked of hockey gear, then get on the ice to skate around for practice and feel the sweat run down my back.

I’ve grown up with a strong set of morals and work ethic, from a young age. If there’s one thing that I’ve learned from my father, is that character is built off of hard work and dedication to yourself and others around you. All the work that I do, I take pride in. I am confident with the work ethic I have from my father, will stay true while I pursue an Associates degree in criminal justice this fall. My father has had a huge impact on my life and has influenced me the most.
