The essay Citizen Ben: A worldly American’s Seven Great Virtues by Walter Isaacson is an essay begins talking about Benjamin Franklin. When we think of Benjamin Franklin our minds automatically turn to the story about him flying a kite in a lightening storm with a rod on to prove that lightening was electricity. This is one thing that Franklin did but he did many more as well, in fact it says that he was an inventor diplomat, writer and business strategist. He helped bring the country that we live in today about. There are many views on him that show him in a good light and some that show him in a bad light. There are some that saw that he was shallow and didn’t show great religious passions for the man who came to America to bring about religious tolerance. While others say that he was “an exemplar of the personal character and civic virtue that are too often missing in today’s world.” Even after all of these opinions his actions showed that he wanted to live a good life through good works and making other peoples lives better.…
Values are things that you believe are important in the way you live and work. People believe that knowing your values will help you make the right decisions about how to live your life.

To understand the hows and whys of Benjamin Franklin’s patriotism for America, and his 13 virtues by which others should follow, one must know a little more about his life. Born in Boston on January 17, 1706, Franklin would eventually become 1 of 17 children to his father who was only a soap maker. Benjamin Franklin grew up as a curious child, and one who loved to read and learn. After some tough trials and tribulations he ended up in Philadelphia where he found work as an apprentice printer. This was only the beginning for Franklin, as he went on to invent numerous things that changed the face of America. He and his wife Deborah Reed, who was also his childhood sweetheart, ran their own shop together as well as the print shop. He also signed the constitution and was an anti –slavery activist. Franklin died in1790 and at his funeral were 20,000 people. He had an electric personality that everyone attached to (ushistory.org).…
A value is a belief, a mission, or a philosophy that is meaningful. Whether we are consciously aware of them or not, every individual has a core set of personal values. Values can range from the commonplace, such as the belief in hard work and punctuality, to the more psychological, such as self-reliance, concern for others, and harmony of purpose. When we examine the lives of…

Values are stable, long lasting beliefs about what is important for a person. Values are individual and very powerful, but very important for each and every human. All kinds of values have a little power on affecting humans, because values have an important influence at human´s behavior, attitudes and perceptions. Some values are the basis of human personality, but are more permanent and well built in nature. We can obviously see that Christopher´s, from Into the Wild, value is well…
To me a value is a principle, a standard or even certain qualities that individuals, people or even groups hold. These values/principles are one of if not the most important things. These values/principles help to guide us a people and individuals. By guide I mean how we live our lives, what we base our decisions on. A Value is usually produced via a belief. This belief would normally be related to worth of an idea or a particular type of behaviour. For example I see great value in always being polite, however somebody that has always got what they wanted or have had a different up bringing may not place very little or any value on being polite. These values can influence our decision making and often the support we give our clients. In a work or professional environment as individuals we should ensure that we do not try to influence our customers decisions based on our values.…
In the play "Death of a Salesman"� by Arthur Miller, reality and illusion is a major theme and source of conflict. Willy, main character of the play, has a hard time distinguish between reality and illusion. His flashbacks, mostly back to the time when Biff was still in his high school year, always overlap with the present days. He cannot see who he and his sons are. He believes his elder son, Biff, and his youngest son, Happy, are great and successful and cannot accept the fact that they are not. Biff cannot see the illusion Willy lives in, as well as the reality he is in until the end of the play. Happy, on the other hand, is like another Willy who cannot see the reality and is always trying to redeem himself in his parent's eyes. Linda, who is Willy's wife, knows Willy is unhappy and is near the end of his life, but tries her best to make Willy happy and keep the peace in the Loman's family.…
