Analysis: Does Attitude Predict Behavior
The topic that I am choosing for this journal is, “Does Attitude Predict Behavior”? I am happy that research says that it in fact does not because from my own personal experience I know that person can feel one way and act another. My example for this journal is one of my friends.

    Considering George Foreman has no expertise on grills or fat-free cooking, one has to wonder why consumers were so influenced to buy the George Foreman Grill, in which he endorsed. Is consumer behavior really affected by celebrity endorsements? When asked in surveys, consumers claim that celebrity endorsements do not influence their buying decisions. Marketing strategist, Mark Babej, argues that responses to these surveys are unreliable “because advertisements appeal to the subconscious as well as the conscious mind” (Hubbard & O’Brien, 2012).…

    Personal Narrative: A Story Of Anne's Guilt

    After almost a week, she knew and we talked about it. The feeling was mutual but it didn't really last long until I found out that someone was courting her. The moment I knew that they are already couples, I told her that “I hope we didn't become friends" and after saying that we treated each other like we didn't exist until next grade. In grade 9 I was the one who approaches her first, but she didn't respond. But one night she texted me, she's saying sorry to me, telling that they broke up and wants me again to be her close friends like we used to be. At first, I didn't really care but, in the end, I still forgave her. Months passed our friendship became stronger until one day the same problem happened again. In that day I felt like no one to her, she would only text me or talked to me when she's bored or no one is talking to her. Sometimes I also asked myself does our friendship worth it, or sometimes I feel like she didn't really deserve to be forgiven, but still she was important to…

    Non Confrontational Attitude Analysis

    One of Bbiggest stumbling blocks in my life was the fatfact that I really do think and feel so differently from the average person. Some people wear their emotions and heart so well that it is clear as to what they are feeling and what it is that has such an effect on them. Now as for me , someone would hurt me and they would never know it. But in my mind I got angry at them fought over it and then got over it, and the person never even knew what happened. Then when it would happen again, I would get mad. Finally I realized that it is not fair to hold someone accountable when I did not take the step in communicating my state to them. My non confrontationalnon-confrontational attitude had to be addressed to find a way to tell someone…
