For my self-change project‚ I knew there was a major aspect of my life that needed improvement; my health and fitness management.

The only times I would ever be active was during school in P.E because it was for a grade and I didn’t want to fail. It’s not that I wanted to be lazy‚

With our alert awareness making such a difference in the survival rate for breast cancer‚ women need to face the possibility and the actuality of breast cancer as a reality rather than

When I first took the Self Assessment Inventory I had not had any type of Human Services classes‚ or any type of education regarding this. After taking Human Services I and Human Services II classes‚ I see things in a very different light. I feel that my thinking changed dramatically after taking these two courses.

It was very interesting because so many of the different parts could relate to my life. Also‚ given his story‚ it’s so interesting to me that he is against bilingual education‚ having benefited from it in his own life. To me‚ it places the book in a different light as I read it. This book is a narrative and it is telling in how his opinions were formed because the experiences that

I am going to commit to role playing at least once a week with peers so that I master this weakness. I can’t grow as an effective leader if I am not able to have crucial conversations with employees. The domino effect from not having those conversations could in fact be detrimental to the employee and the company. To ensure I actually follow through with this‚ I will schedule time on my calendar with peers to practice. As a servant leader‚ it’s in my nature to make sure people feel cared for and
