There is only one person doing the record keeping, this leaves a lot of room for error. If this person makes a mistake then it would go unnoticed and they would lose money. An audit should be done more often. For 15 years the church trusted one person to count the money and that’s all the insurance they had. The head usher should put the money in the bank once he finishes counting it. This would be a smarter move because of the lack of insurance. Also the head usher should not be the only one to count it. There should be another person with him when he counts the money. Once the money is counted there should be more information like who counted and what time it was counted.…

Our text defines self-esteem as “a belief about how a person evaluates his or her self-worth as part of an overall self-evaluation” (Baack, 2012), whereas self-efficacy is the “extent to which people believe they can perform a behavior to produce a particular desired outcome” (Lu, Chang & Lai, 2011). Self-esteem and self-efficacy are interrelated; using this graduate degree from Ashford as an example – having successfully completed an undergraduate degree with honors at Ashford provides me with the high self-efficacy that I can also complete a graduate degree. Similarly, completing courses with good grades boosts self-esteem by reinforcing a positive self-image. On the contrary, if a person failed to achieve a goal, like graduating from college, their self-esteem would be low(er) and their self-efficacy about higher education would also be low. An external forces that can impact self-efficacy are persuasion and encouragement. These forces can come from peers, colleagues, family, or romantic partners (Baack, 2012), and help to strengthen a person’s innate belief in themselves, which can translate into successes in other areas of their life.…
