This is a decision that I regret to this day. My grandmother did not raise me to be to a “quitter” and I disappointed not only my family who was so proud and happy for me to get out of the neighborhood but also disappointed myself. I feel that by going back to school will increase my financial situation in two ways. The first way is by having a degree in business I can obtain various positions in the workforce that require my expertise, rather than be confined to just one particular job. By obtaining my degree I feel that it will place me in a situation to have a career rather than just a job.…

On a course of time, the role of a project manager is evolving very rapidly. Now, project managers are not evaluated solely on their expertise in their respective discipline but they are also judged on their leadership traits and attributes. This requires a great emphasis on the personal leadership development of project managers. In due course, the development goals that I have set is to further develop my passion for learning and commitment, being a proactive person and a leader rather than reactive, and the development of adaptability in diverse and complex situation and circumstances.…
In “The Rocking-Horse Winner” we are introduced to a woman who author D.H Lawrence states, “was beautiful, who started with all the advantages, yet she had no luck. She married for love, and the love turned to dust. She had bonny children, yet she felt they had been thrust upon her, and she could not love them.” When I dive into the psychology behind that statement, I come up with a thought that this beginning draws similarities to Lawrence’s own upbringing with his coal miner father and schoolteacher mother. Similarly the mother in “The Rocking-Horse Winner” is disenchanted with her marriage and the way her life has turned out. In Lawrence’s own childhood he had parents who were suspected of treason and very status minded. (559) When I look at the relationship in the opening of the story between mother and children it is one of feeling burdened and having been ill prepared for child rearing and mother hood. This family seems completely motivated and driven by social status and superficial impressions. It seems to me that the children were brought into the world not by want or out of love but by obligation and social standards. What was a woman back then who did not raise a family and keep a home?…

My name is Yazer Navarrete and I have chosen to major in Business Administration. I have selected this major for different motives. For starters, I feel like a degree in business does not limit me to one particular profession. I am able to branch out in the business world without the restriction of only knowing one set of skills. If I master the principles of business, there is nothing that can stand in my way of success other than myself. Ever since I was a kid, the entrepreneurial spirit has always infatuated me. I work well with others, but work best managing myself. I am self-disciplined enough to accomplish day-to-day responsibilities without someone watching over me. A business administration degree is one of the few degrees that satisfies my character and personality.…

Each individual has his own reason for pursuing a graduate degree. Professionally, a graduate degree shows that the person has the motivation, ambition, and dedication to improve and thus strive to obtain a position in which he/she can apply and expand his knowledge base. Many perceive a graduate degree as a status symbol, an opportunity for advancement, or even a cause for more money. The choice to seek additional education after investing four years in an undergraduate degree shows commitment to learning and recognition of self-worth. I chose to pursue a Master’s degree for two reasons; to obtain a higher learning level of education and to eventually increase my annual salary. The first, and most important, reason for my wanting to pursue a Master’s degree is to obtain a higher education level. I believe that obtaining a graduate degree will definitely make me more marketable in the corporate world. My goal is to broaden my horizon beyond the technical world, unlock career aspirations otherwise blocked, and enhance problem-solving and decision-making skills. I am hoping that by pursuing a degree of higher learning, I will pick up enhanced skills that will enable me to be more of an asset to a team once I enter the workforce. I truly believe that without the knowledge, strength and…
Why did I wait so long to go back to school has been my thought since I started classes on –online? It has been such an enriching experience, since starting classes, and I really regret starting as late as I did, but I am very excited that I did.

Ben’s current age is a key factor in his decision making process. If he starts a program now, he will be in his early thirties when his finishes, since it usually takes about two years to complete an MBA program. If he begins the program later in his professional career, he might have a harder time with the material. It is more likely that he will have forgotten vital information due to the amount of years out of college. Also, the further he gets in his career before starting, the harder it will be to justify quitting his job to go to college. This is due to the fact that the two colleges that his is considering require its students to not work during the program.…
