When studying the Cheesecake factory and how the operations run, i have learn that when it comes to their code of conduct it is quite large. With in the code of conduct i have notice how important a few rules are and to how they run their business. One this that i did notice is how important the code of conduct is due to the fact that it lays out how the company may run and work in order for it to be sucessful. It is also important that the staff and employees must understand the Cheesecake Factory ethnics and belief systems due to the fact that it may differ with regards to cultural conetent values, and beliefs within the company. When looking at the code of contact i what i notice first is conflict of interest. Within the code of conduct this company states that and employee mush avoid situations or job choices that may that may hurt them or go against their competors and work both jobs. Also this will help the company so that the employess, can not allowing them to give special treatment or discounts to such as family, friend , church families, etc. If Cheesecake Factory would allow such thing to exist or go on it could hender the sucess for the company to make profit or...

...Mijnon Altman English 1102 Katie Moss October 17, 2013 Hard work is the key to the door of success Hard work is the diligence to keep pushing forward with everything seems to be falling apart. It is a steady factor that if things need to get done, that one does not give up on what his/her goal is. Life is full of ups and downs, but many people are not successful because they give up. They feel as if there should be no rocky road while climbing to the top of the mountain. Everyone has to struggle here in this world to overcome every obstacle in life on the way up to success. For this hard work is necessary. Without working hard and just by sitting idle it will be hard for one to get success. One has to put forth the effort in order to get things done. Hard work is not completed by sitting around. Success does not come from waiting on it either. Most of the successful billionaires do not become rich or wealthy by waiting. One had to work their way to the top. It was hard work and consistency that will help one stay focused towards their goal. Success could mean anything to everyone it all depends on the person, and what he/she is trying to achieve. A quote that one should live by is, “The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves, to the task at hand”- Vince Lombardi Life has many twist and turns, which will throw someone off course. If one does not have...

...Searching for success shouldn’t be an easy task. Success is not a gift, it should be hard to achieve and it matters how it is accomplished. That’s why I strongly disagree with this statement. "It is irrelevant how you achieve success". In my opinion, I believe success is accomplished by having desire, devotion, and with a tremendous amount of dedication. I called these three words the three d’s of success. I believe that by having a desire towards your goals and by being a devotional person are remarkable ways to achieve success. But most importantly by having dedication towards your accomplishments is the most effective way to achieve greatness. Not everyone acquires these sets of skills. To find triumph in life people should work hard to gain it, nobody should take success lightly or cheat his or her way out to success. It is not fair for a person who has worked hard his or her entire life for success, to be at the same status as someone who has cheated his or her way to greatness. Success means many things to many people, and everyone will do anything to reach that ultimate goal. In life the true indicator of success is not what is accomplished, but what is felt. And for a fact everyone wants to feel happy in his or her lifetime. For that reason many people lie and cheat their way to success to feel fulfilled. But people that achieve success the wrong way will just lead their lives to disappointment. For example, a student wants to be a doctor, but cheats his way out...

...So should government be responsible to provide health care? That’s a good question. Well when I look at that question I think the government should provide health care. Yeah, I know that sounds like we are putting a lot of responsibility on the government but let’s be real for a second; the government is trying to be involved in everything else in our lives so why not make them take care of that as well. One of the first reasons I feel that that the government should pay is because there are a lot people that are homeless and don’t have the means to get health care. People who don’t have jobs also need to be able to have health care. When we look at health care if the government wants to keep the environment in good condition and free of diseases and outbreaks then it would make a lot of sense for the government to pay for health care. Health care provided by the government can take care of those persons that do work but just don’t make enough money to have health care for the entire family. If the government can take care of the inmates (or people that are incarcerated) then they can help those who aren’t. The government helps the inmates find jobs and housing. They also provide funding for literacy programs and nutritional programs then what’s the difference of providing health care for everyone. I don’t feel that if you want the children of the U.S. to be able to read and eat better then you must also provide them with the health care that goes hand-in-hand with nutrition....

...The Graduate Study Challenges and Strategies for Personal Success Yesenia Osle Introduction to graduate study in health sciences/nursing/HCS504 10/07/2014 Michelle Dorin The Graduate Study Challenges and Strategies for Personal Success The price of success is hard work, dedication the job at hand,and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand” (“Success,” 2004, para. ). Sometimes, we considered a successful person when he or she is millionaire, or has the car of the year or own a beautiful big house. I know a person that do not have the car of the year because they are using that money to pay the college for their children. I also know people that do not have a big house because their goal is to have two vacations time every year with all their family. Success is more than a beautiful house, is achieved all your goals and put hard work into them. Success is more than the car of the year, is having wisdom of getting up every time we fall. Personal and professional goals On January 2014, one of my goals was to go back to school and start a master in Nursing Education. Since I was a teen, I was in the debate between being a nurse or a teacher. I decided to be a nurse because I can do both things at the same time. It has been eight years since I graduated and loved it, but I think that it is time to the pursuit my other dream witch is being an educator. Also, with the Master in nursing education...

...Thoughts on Student Success Webster defines a student as a person who attends a school, college, or university or a person who studies something. When I was young, I was told that hard work is the key to success. Get all the knowledge I can and gain wisdom with life experiences. I have found out over the years that is exactly what I need to become a successful student. Even though not everything is under your control. I will explain how hard work, sacrifice and staying positive will help others be successful in school. The first and foremost important quality of student success is hard work. We cannot have good results without effort. People dream of becoming an NFL superstar or an MVP in the NBA. But none of those players achieved greatness without years of hard work and practice. People must work hard to gain skills and maintain them. Without hard work and practice, the chance of people becoming successful at something is very slim. I don’t hear many stories of people that don’t put forth the effort to achieve their goals, but there are millions of success stories of how people gained success through hard work. My sister for instance, she always had a very hard time with math. So every night she would come home, and study for hours trying to figure out the problems. With her hard work she figured out how to do all of her homework, and received an A in the class The next quality is sacrifice. Choosing to study does require a lot of sacrifice. Many students give up on...

...Brooke Lee Mr. Anderson Principles of Marketing 10 November 2013 Creative Director For I now the plans I have for you “declares the lord” plans to prosper you and not to harm you plans to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). God has created everyone and gave them a purpose in life. He gave us unique abilities, talents, and gifts to prosper in life. I believe my purpose in life is to become a creative director. As a child I always had an imagination, creativity, sense of adventure, and love to create jewelry, clothes, and shoes. Taking math history and social studies has always been boring to me but when I started taking art classes, I enter into a new world that I love because it allows me to express my imagination, feelings, thoughts, and emotions into art. As I got older, I fell more in love with art. I started to come up with visional ideas for music videos, TVs. shows, movies, beauty products, magazines, and fashion shows. Then when I enter into college, I started to look at different careers and after I took the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator a career in arts design entertainment Sports and Media was an excellent match for me (MBTI). So being a creative director fits in with my career path because I’m dealing with art and designing. Also some of my abilities that ties in with being an creative director is that I love devising new ways to achieve my vision or somebody else vision and turn it into a reality and love to designing innovative programs or services which...

...Theory In order to fall in love there need to be trust, communication, and attraction. Hypothesis Couples who learn to trust each other, communicate by talking about feelings, and are attracted to each other looks, fall in love easier. Prediction Couples who have learned to trust, communicate, and are attracted to one another fall in love and have a better relationship than other couple. Research method I would use an observational study in their own natural environment. The reason is that people show their true character in their own environment. They are usually relaxed and feel safe. I would be careful not to put anyone at risk in their environment that would violate their privacy. I would also look at the works of other researchers to make sure I am concluding my own ideas and not that of others. Describe your subject population: age, gender, education, etc. My population would consist of two groups. Couples that are male and female ranging from the age of 25 to 35 and are engaged or initiated a long term serious relationship. Their education level would be high school graduate to college graduate. How a research method in psychology benefits Research is beneficial today because it adds to information that is already known. Everyone has their own unique idea about situations and when more ideas come together a conclusion is better drawn. Research can be complicated but it helps to answer questions such as why people behave the way they do or why society have certain...

...Jonathon Carroll Ms. Carver The Old Man and the Sea August 29, 2013 Fishing for Success In The Old Man and the Sea Hemingway tells the story of an old man’s quest for fish and turns it into a story about a hero that overcomes adversity. The title alone reveals to the reader that this is no ordinary fishing tale. Hemingway’s hero in the novel, the fisherman, Santiago, begins with adversity. He lives in poor conditions and has not caught fish for eight-four days. One might think of taking up a different line of work or sign up for a fishing class. But, Santiago remains optimistic and true to his passion. The adversity of the ocean, the fish, and the sharks are used by Hemingway to create a noble hero. Life is unpredictable and can make reaching your goals seem out of reach. Santiago endures the adversity brought on by the sea with courage and pride. Santiago lives very poorly and tells everyone he eats fish at home knowing that he has none to eat. He would rather go hungry than be shamed. Our hero bears the adversity of being a “salao” or the worst kind of unlucky. Santiago never accepting defeat begins again every day with a positive attitude that it will be a better day. Santiago respects and loves the sea, but at the same time must battle the sea. The sea even battles Santiago and heckles him using the voices of the other villagers that call him “salao.” Even though life symbolized by the sea challenges Santiago’s faith, he never gives up. On the eight-fifth...

...| Dress for Success | | | Melinda Hart | 3/15/2013 | | When one talks about the idea of dressing for success in the workplace they are talking about the fact that it is the first thing the interviewer will see. Being that the first impression will inform ones perceptions about their ability to perform a job. When an interviewer sees someone who is well dressed and who appears with confidence, the interviewer thinks positive thoughts toward them. If one is dressed sloppy and not professional it gives the image that they are not someone who takes time with their work and may even be sloppy. What is the most appropriate dress for a job interview is a common question one will ask. What you wear advertises to the world the skills, competencies and qualities they can deliver. A professional appearance helps to convey a positive image, generating respect from others and improving personal impact. A basic gray, navy blue or black suit is widely acceptable outfits. If you are planning on using a skirt suit it should be knee length and straight but not tight fitting. If you do not have a suit then a simple dress with a jacket over it is acceptable. You should press your outfit and not have wrinkles. Clothing that reveals too much cleavage, your back, your chest, your feet, your stomach or your underwear is not appropriate for a place of business, even in a business casual setting. The accessories that you team up with your attire should be appropriate for a professional...

...For the past three years, Southington High School DECA has been my passion. DECA is an international organization that prepares student leaders and entrepreneurs for careers in finance, hospitality and management. I was first introduced to this organization as a freshman. I joined because I knew early on in my high school life that the area of business was one that I wanted to pursue. I was also new to the school and thought it would be an excellent opportunity to meet new friends with similar interests. Being competitive by nature, I hoped to develop skills that I could use in future DECA competitions while simultaneously pushing myself to the limits. As I approach the end of my high school career, I know that I have not only achieved my goals, I have exceeded them. In my junior year, I was elected as the chapter’s Parliamentarian. I was later promoted to its Treasurer. The following year, I successfully campaigned for the role of Vice President. In addition, I was honored y to have been elected as the Vice President of the statewide DECA organization. This highly selective board consists of only five students in the entire state. This appointment was truly one of the highlights in my life. I will never forget my first statewide DECA competition. I had never worked so hard on a fifteen minute presentation in my life. The heart pumping, stomach turning, adrenaline-rushing feelings as I started my presentation are something that I will always remember. After the...

...Paul, Jeremy Professor Olvera Strategies for Academic Success 07 Oct 2011 Personal Mission Statement After reading and analyzing the thirteen steps of the emotional intelligence skills I have discovered two specific goals that I would like to work on to become a better leader and more confident in my own abilities. The two areas I’m going to talk about are time management and self-esteem. I chose these two areas because I recognize their importance and my deficiency of these skills in my personal leadership arsenal. Time management is the act or process of exercising conscious control over the amount of time spent on specific activities, especially to increase efficiency or productivity. Time management may be aided by a range of skills, tools, and techniques used to manage time when accomplishing specific tasks, projects and goals. This set encompasses a wide scope of activities, and these include planning, allocating, setting goals, delegation, analysis of time spent, monitoring, organizing, scheduling, and prioritizing. Initially, time management referred to just business or work activities, but eventually the term broadened to include personal activities as well. A time management system is a designed combination of processes, tools, techniques, and methods. Usually time management is a necessity in any project development as it determines the project completion time and scope. Time management strategies are often associated with the recommendation to set personal...

...Kubrick’s Success Stanley Kubrick was one of the most famous and most recognized film directors of modern cinema. His milestone works were also often subject to controversy. It was yet ironic that the academy ignored him despite the perfectly executed elements in his films such as cinematography, narrative, production design and casting. It would be impossible to pin point the exact contributor to his success, since the combined form of all those elements are the source of the beauty and depth in his movies. For example the movie ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ would not retain the atmospheric intensity of the ballade if the music playing was ascend, which was a reversed version of a Romanian Liturgy. However, there must be a key element that distinguishes Kubrick from his contemporaries. Perhaps a secret formula? In my opinion a pattern of his style can be observed throughout his movies which is essentially staging to both convey an ambiguous narrative through visuals and add an overall visual aesthetic and beauty. This can also be identified as mise-en-scene. We can see that Kubrick was so keen on the on staging of the film that his movies took many shots until the perfect and satisfactory result was achieved by Kubrick. As one of the special photographic effects designer Douglas Trumbull in the movie ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ indicates in his essay: “One of the most serious problem that plagued us throughout the production was simply keeping track of all the ideas, shots, and...
