...Many things have been written and said in the media, both pro and con, about perhaps the most polarizing individual in America today. Opinions and emotions are very strong concerning the current President, and even some well known mental health professionals as recently as last Tuesday held a panel discussion in Washington D.C. titled “The Increasingly Dangerous Case of Donald Trump” [1]. It was claimed that the President’s “mental instability” was supported by now well-known examples of exaggeration, lying, and personal vanity. Although many politicians and public figures are controversial because of these behaviors, I thought it would be interesting to examine and explain Donald Trump’s personality using two different perspectives: Freud’s...

...The Controversial Affects of Power Power is one of the most important factors that affects a person decision's making and how they view their ideals. Thus, power has long been debated whether it corrupts people or emphasizes pre-existing personality traits and moral values. Power can be categorized into socialized and personalized power, with one leading to the other which is called mutualized power. (Source E) However, the lure of personalized power usually dominates an individual's mind even if they initially sought to emphasize socialized power since power can overwhelm a person's mind with thoughts of greed and selfishness. The same principle applies to how power affects a person's moral identity, it overwhelms the person's mind with these...

...Basically, he glorifies himself. Any philosophy or principle he might have must always bow to the altar of this individual as — CENTER. A solely self-focused person makes for a pretty simple person; hence the repetition in these verses. This makes organizing a book such as this challenging. I basically had three options, all of which entail difficulties. 1. Expositionally go through the biblical books in order. 2. Break down chapters in this book according to character traits e.g. deception, wealth, etc. The first option causes repetition because the books themselves are repetitive. The second option solves the repetition problem, but loses the force of the complete picture any given passage may paint. 3. A mix of number one and two. I opted for number three, keeping major passages intact e.g. Daniel, 2 Thessalonians and Revelation, but order books such as the Psalms according to descriptive character traits. The book of Proverbs is confessedly a bit random, falling into neither category. That said, qualities that have already been discussed elsewhere will be briefly addressed. An exhaustive approach made redundancy unavoidable and...

...Introduction Great managers have some characters in common which can be learnt by upcoming and young managers through simulation, that is, the imitation of the leadership styles of great managers to achieve results. Some criteria is required which is predictable from the simple aggregation of individual characteristics of the agents (Gilbert, 1996). If novices can painstakingly learn from and imitate characters of experts, they will surely develop their skills. Managing a team with more than two people is not an easy task because of the fact that sub-teams will emerge from the bigger team and this existence of smaller teams in a team have its challenges and opportunities if well managed. Nobody is an island on his or her own and projects are easier to execute where there is more than one collaborators, especially with mutual understanding and team spirit. Synergy is the factor that helps teams to do what individual members will not do. The whole team performance is more than the sum of the perormances of individual members of the team. This is due to the geling of the team members and the dynamism therein. Great leaders have exhibited different kinds of leadership styles. All these leadership styles are beneficial depending on how they are used. Great leaders are visionary people who are able to achieve results using people. They exhibits authority in themselves and exhume confidence in their team members. Circustances make men, just as much as men make circumstances (Marx...

...Human Development October 14, 2014 In order to gain more knowledge about young Psychosocial Development in Merging and adulthood, I interview a young lady in college who is approaching her 30th birthday in January. For the purpose of this interview I will called the young lady Paige, a factious name to protect her privacy. Paige is the only child for her parents. She grew up in an upper class neighborhood in Greenwich where money wasn’t an option for luxury. Both her parents are still alive and a fixture in the social life like Donald Trump. When I asked Paige about what influences her path and becoming an adult, she answered with angelic smile that life experience and her environment forces her to be an adult at an early age as 13. For example my mom had been sick at home with Osteoporosis (a joint disease) since I was 12 years of age. I had to make sure she was properly care for at night, by assisting with medication and her frequent bathroom visits. My parents had so much pride to have a living care giver. They don’t want the stigma of been sick and unable to be a nursing home picture to anyone in their social circle. I noticed at the end of her answer she got really joyfully like a child getting her first Barbie doll. In addition to that, Paige mention that she her parents thought her at early age that financial and educational success is not an option. She was helping her dad in his Law office every other weekend which earned her $20.00 “chuckle”. Moreover, Spanish...

...Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a disorder affecting anywhere between 0-1% of the general population (Kring, 2010). Personality Disorders are described as “a heterogeneous group of disorders defined by problems with forming a stably positive sense of self and with sustaining close and constructive relationships.” (Kring, 2010). Personality disorders describe long-term, organised ways of characterological functioning (Ronningstam, 2005). We all display symptoms of personality disorders. However, those who display enough symptoms to be diagnosed with personality disorders can experience trouble with personal identity, relationships and impulse control. There are three clusters of personality disorders: the odd cluster (A), the erratic...

...valuable relationships. I met a true friend in my workplace. We spend lot of great time together and our friendship had endured through many years. My friend is a rare person to be with because he is funny, friendly, and faithful. First of all, one of my friend’s exceptional traits is being funny. My friend has a very good sense of humor and always has a way of saying something funny about anything. For instance, when we were together in a church service and we have this pastor who was more than 6-foot tall and weighs about 400 pounds. He asked me what would people say if he enters a room for the first time. In a low voice, he told me: “Oh, my God!’ Also, my friend is keeping a list of jokes he learned in a pocket notebook. So whatever the occasion and whatever the topic, my friend always have the joke of the moment. Once, we were discussing with a friend about rounding off numbers. He told us about a farmer who counted 196 cows in the pasture but when he rounded them off to his yard, he had 200. My friend also has the ability to mimic in a fun way the personality of many known people. For example, he can mimic the dancing steps of Michael Jackson, the facial expressions of Jim Carrey, how Donald Trump talks, and many others. In addition to being funny, my friend is also very friendly. It’s amazing to note the number of friends he has. To illustrate, in our workplace, he befriended everyone not only in our department but also throughout the many divisions in our company...

...Scout’s behavior and personality are one of her biggest enemys throughout the book. Scout was explaining to her teach why Walter would refuse to take her money for lunch. Because of the explanation she gave, her teacher hit her with a ruler. This made Scout very angry and she took her angry out on Walter Cunningham. Scout narrates, “Catching Walter Cunningham in the schoolyard gave me some pleasure, but when I was rubbing his nose in the dirt Jem came by and told me to stop.” (Lee,30). The quote shows rather than tells how Scout’s personality is her enemy. Scout does not like when she gets in trouble so she decided to take out it out on the people around her. This causes many people to dislike her, proving that her personality has a negative impact on her and is one of her enemies. Furthermore, when Scout was going to school and she has a new teacher, Miss. Caroline. Scout is able to read in her class and understand the reading. Miss. Caroline was shocked buy this and told Scout to stop allowing her dad to read with her. Scout explains,“Jem, that damn lady says Atticus’s been teaching me to read and for him to stop it—”(Lee,23). There is not only one trait in her personality that causes it to be her antagonist, but her not being able to put herself in others shoes is a big part of it as well. Judging people and not being able to understand their perspective of things creates enemies and that is exactly what Scout is doing in this quote with her personality. This creates the point...

...Many guys also like girls. In actuality I know many gay men who only speak in lies. There are extremely introverted and shy gay men. Some gay men make very poor choices and you would probably be better off accepting advice from Donald Trump. Therefore, I do not believe this list is anywhere near valid. Articles like the one published in Teen Vogue harm the diversity of the LGBT community by boiling down every single gay man into five general bullet points. By defining all gay men by these bullet points, Teen Vogue is eliminating all the beautiful personalities found within our community that makes the community brilliantly...

...that this was the first time a Republican woman, Sarah Palin, ran for Vice President. In the book, “Notes from the Cracked Ceiling,” author Anne E. Kornblut, argues that the Alaskan Governor, appealed to both genders. With women, “she was...just an average ‘hockey mom’ who joined the PTA, eventually running for city council...then mayor, then governor” (page 1324). While with men, she was “ a superhuman mother goddess…(who could) ‘field dress a moose’” (page 1497). While candidates running for office need to appeal to many different demographics, it almost seems as women are under a finer microscope than men. This past Presidential election against Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton showed the major difference between how the different genders are reflected in the media. One incident that stands out is the Access Hollywood scandal with Trump. While his numbers dropped, it did not hurt his overall campaign. While Clinton was still answering for the sins of her husband’s past while he was president in the 1990s. In the book, “He Runs, She Runs, Why Gender Stereotypes Do Not Harm Women Candidates,” the author Deborah Jordan Brooks, argues that while there are stereotypes, there are stereotypes for both men...

...says that “Power isn’t inherently good or evil. Yes, it’s true that power fundamentally alters perception. As Adam Galinsky and colleagues put it, “powerful people roam in a very different psychological space than those without power.” Power increases confidence, optimism, risk-taking, sensitivity to internal thoughts and feelings, goal-directed behavior and cognition, and creativity” (Kaufman). Power can have a positive effect on people. There are many compassionate teachers, politicians, humanitarians, and others who wield power, who genuinely want to make the world a better place. Power amplifies the person. It gave already existing personality dispositions and tendencies a louder voice and increases the chances that these tendencies will be given fuller expression. Though given to the wrong person that power will amplify unwanted personalities that make a person violent or very egotist. This type of person in...
