Makayla loses a lot of time with her Sequence Pattern as she is overthinking and questioning so many why’s that she miss uses valuable time. If she would implement what was already worked out on the task at hand first then go back and review what needs to be done to complete the task that she avoided it would save her not only time, but energy as well.
John is being very factual with his Precision Pattern and lacking of any emotions in his letter home. Perhaps to this guarding his own sanity or just being that of a person that wanted to stick to the facts. This can be a survival mechanism I feel to avoid feeling what is going on when in a stressful environment.
Paul is very stuck in his Technical Reasoning and it shows in his grading. Although I see how one with this pattern would have the need to communicate by demonstration of taking something apart, it is more important to be able to use words as well. So many people would be lost with that type of learning, however if Paul were to apply some of his Technical Reasoning with Sequence I think he would be able to express and help so much more with his knowledge. When Technical Reasoning comes together with another learning pattern I think great things can be taught and accomplished.

Being confident in your Confluent Pattern is one thing, but when it interferes with your learning it is an entirely different monster. Raheem was overly confident that he was doing just enough to pass his course and yet that thought process failed him immensely. It is important to be thorough in your knowledge and confident as well both make for a great combination in
Sequence: When I use sequential pattern on a use first basis I feel most comfortable, knowing that if I follow everything step-by-step makes completing assignments from beginning to end without interruption go smoother. Using sequential pattern in my household makes things easier,
In the first video “Beliefs That Make You Fail… Or Succeed” Dr. Steven Chew started off by stating you, the student, cannot become an A student overnight with little to no effort. He made a great point by saying “…students base their study behavior on their beliefs of how they best learn”, I agree with this statement because this could be the reason as to why everyone learns in many different ways. He went over three key facts which fall under “Beliefs That Make You Stupid”, which the first was you should always plan ahead of time because your assignments or reading will most likely take longer than you expected them to, therefore be realistic about your timing. The second key fact would be don’t isolate your learning, this meaning to be open minded because teachers look for conception and if you try to constantly remember the things you’re not really understanding what you’re going over. Thirdly, you aren’t born and automatically good at that subject. You must actually work towards achieving a high success in that subject matter. When it comes to being distracted you’re just losing more
Paul's Case is about a young, Calvinist man who did not feel that he belonged in his life. He lived on Cordelia Street in Pittsburgh, PA. Cordelia Street was littered with cookie cutter houses, suburbanite-like city-dwellers, and a general aura of despair. Paul's room was no different. Paul felt that his abusive father, uncaring teachers, and classmates who misunderstand him aren't worthy of his presence and company. One of the reasons Paul may not have fit in was because there is a chance that he was learning disabled.
By this time, they lived together, still in Massachusetts, but John’s job as a politician kept him away from home quite often. They wrote letters back and forth constantly, reporting to each other about current situations happening

The main character, a challenging adolescent boy named Paul, has an almost inexplicable ability at irritating every person he comes in contact with. He finds his education trivial, a sense of superiority towards his peers, and a general distaste for everything in his suburban neighborhood on Cordelia Street. At first glance, Paul appears to be suffering from the typical adolescent angst. However, his actions and frame of mind are better defined by Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPR). Paul demonstrates several symptoms of this mental illness such as, “preoccupation with fantasies that focus on unlimited success, power, intelligence, beauty or love, the belief
Paul was a self-oriented boy, concerned with money, wealth, and glamour, raised in a Calvinist household that supported these ideals. Through my research I have decided that Paul's eventual fate was not any one person's fault. Paul was just as much to blame as his father and teachers for Paul's suicide.
John takes her sensitivity as a sign of lacking "proper self-control" (Gilman 179). Because of his callous opinion, she must hide parts of herself. This reminds the reader of a parent telling a child to grow up. The colorful, sensitive side of her psyche is being pushed aside for his more black-and-white male perspective. His view is one of a colorless world that is cut, dried, and neatly organized with no room for varying shades. If he can't see or touch it, then it doesn't exist. Beverly Hume writes, "John is mechanistic, rigid, predictable, and sexist; he 'combines' as Rachael Duplesis notes 'the professional authority of the physician with the legal and emotional authority of the husband'" (478).

Paul's building an argument he uses reasoning and what that does is developing an idea to be connected to the claim and the evidence. because certain thinks happen is the reason why they don't let it be
For John, that of which he is not in strict control, such as Jane's writing (Kristeva), is considered "absurd" precisely because it reduces his power. The idea that there is such a thing, for example, as "ghostliness" is inconceivable to John because it cannot be "felt and seen." Therefore, he refuses to even listen to Jane's thoughts on the topic. For instance, when she "tried to have a real earnest reasonable talk with him the other day, and tell him how [she] wish[ed] he would let [her] go and make a visit to Cousin Henry and Julia" (Kristeva), John disallows such an action as it would constitute a break in the schedule he had, in his patronizing belief that "Father" knows best, set for her. Rather than consider the potential validity of Jane's suggestion, "dear John gathered me up in his
Based on the information that I have gathered I can say Monroe’s Motivated Sequence is for the speaker to be more organized and to convince his/her audience to take action. There are five steps the speaker needs to have in his/her speech. This system is developed for persuasive speeches. The sole purpose of this system is to inform the audience what they can do. Not just giving information but involving the audience, getting in touch with their emotions and to let them know their choice of action can make a difference.
Firstly, John, tends to partially solve his problems, then gravitates towards ignoring them, swiping them under the rug or even running from them. For example, when the narrator asks, "Why the house had stood so long untenanted,” (647) John just laughs at his wife instead of answering her and doesn 't stress her question which proves that he’s just letting it go and isn 't going to do anything about it like he does several times during the text. Not only does John ignore his problems, but he also "scoffs openly at any talk.” (652). This means that he doesn’t want to talk about his problems and he would prefer to keep things bottled up then to express how he is really feeling or what 's going on. John also proves that he chooses to run from the majority of his problems and his most important problem being his wife. The narrator says that he is also always "going into town for more serious cases” (650). This shows that he is avoiding confrontation and is finding excuses in which to deal with his problems. John also avoids his problems literally, by not addressing his wife by her real name and instead by calling her names like "my blessed little goose.” (649), and by saying cute lines like "bless her little heart” (652). These names and lines make it so that he doesn’t have to answer her question honestly because he justified it with something kind distracting her from her original point. As it is clear, John chooses a more demeaning and
In fact,confidence is very important to each of us .Confident people believe in themselves,and because they believe,they achieve.You have confidence in yourself and your abilities.President Nixon,because of a lack of confidence,ruined his political career.In 1972,Nixon’s re-election campaign.Because of his remarkable achievements in the first term,so most political commentators are predicting Nixon will win by a landslide.Nixon himself,however,is not very confident.He can’t walk out of psychological shadow of the past few failure,extremely
