Effective listening involves more than just hearing what other people are saying. Listening errors occur and usually result in misunderstandings, missed business opportunities, premature judgments, and wasted time and money. To get the full meaning of what someone says requires energy and discipline, both of which contribute to what is known as active listening. In the article "Learn to listen, and you'll learn to sell," David Connolly explains that, "the best agents in the insurance industry talk only 20% of the time during an interview with a new prospect, and that 20% is in the form of questions." David Connolly is an independent agent, owner of Splinter Group Consulting, and executive vice president of the Cabinetmaker's Association. David…
Democracy implies equal chance for all. Such is not the case for the black children of the ghetto, as we learn through reading Toni Cade Bambara 's "The Lesson". During the course of the story the narrator, Sylvia, develops as a character due to the trip that Miss Moore takes her on. Miss Moore, an educated black woman who comes to the ghetto to give back to the children, takes children from the ghetto of New York to F.A.O Shwarz which is an extremely glamorous toy store. She does this to make the children aware of their social and economical situations by forcing them to face the difference between them and the people who would purchase toys from such a store that would sell a toy sail boat for over a thousand dollars. The theme of this story is very similar to the lesson Miss Moore is trying to teach the children. It is that through the loss of innocence and naiveté that poor black children can have a chance to stand up and fight for their piece of the pie. In "The Lesson" all the children come from poor families. They live in apartment buildings where drunkards who reek of urine live in the hallways that reek of urine from the drunks who pee on the walls; they live in what Miss Moore would call the "slums." The children 's families, however, exhibit somewhat of a varying degree of monetary security. For example, Flyboy claims he doesn 't even have a home whilst Mercedes has a desk at home with a box of stationary on it, gifts from her godmother.…

Close your eyes and dream of losing everything, everything that ever meant anything to you at all. Your entire life, everything that you know, is being snatched right from under your feet. However, there’s not a thing you can do about it but sit back and hope for the best. You’re left in this bloodcurdling world with nothing but what you have in your soul and spirit. That’s an extremely daunting feeling. Dreaming of that is a crazy thing to ask, because that is without a doubt a complete nightmare. A nightmare is exactly what Mr. Ronald Cotton went through for eleven years of his life. Mr. Cotton was wrongly accused of raping two women and had eleven years of his life snatched away from him. There was absolutely nothing Cotton could have done about the situation but dangle from the hands of God in hopes he would pull him up again. Nevertheless, Cotton never gave up faith that God would guide him through this battle and he would make it out and still be able to hold his head high. True enough, God pulled Mr. Cotton through the struggle and he was able to walk a free man once again. If you spent eleven years of your life in prison because someone accused you of something you had absolutely nothing to do with, would you forgive him or her? Should you even think about forgiving them? Someway, somehow Cotton forgave Thompson for her mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, right?…

Throughout the article that author shows many times when the Westboro Baptist Church used this phrase to get their point across to people as funerals and LBGTQ parades. In the article the members at the Westboro Baptist Church admit to using the phrase that “God Hates” due to the fact of how much attention that it gets them when they say it (Powell-Williams and Powell-Williams 2016). Before the use of the phrase “God Hates” they did not get that much attention from the media and people like they wanted to, they used different slur and phrases, but it was not packing the punch that they felt like they were looking for (Powell-Williams and Powell-Williams 2016).…
