...importantly taught me the true value of life itself. Being that my mother has had Multiple Sclerosis for more than ten years, I have witnessed firsthand the struggles and hardships that she has faced. One example of those hardships is not being able to walk without assistance. Seeing her face many hardships has convinced me that even though life may get hard, it may not be a beneficial thing to give up. The different emotions that she faces may not be recognizable to those around her but she still manages to take it one day at a time. To my mom a new day brings a new brand new attitude and a new possibility. I like to live by that mindset because it shows the amount of optimism you have. My mother has a strong way of saying “When the tough gets going, the tough gets going.” Whenever I am having a horrible day or decides that I will decline something because it is too “hard” then I will remind myself of this motto; Then I would sit and think of her reaction and her positive mindset about things which would consequently influence mine. Also, showing her being a fighter toward her condition has consequently convinced me that without a fight there is no point in standing for what you believe. Seeing my mom trying to fight against not losing her walking completely and also standing up for her overall has convinced me to speak what’s in my mind and in my heart. My mother’s condition could possibly worsen and she may stop walking all together. Being aware of this my mom tries extra hard to...

...New jobs can be tough and require a lot of work, effort, and perseverance. In the Call of the Wild, Buck gets his first job, Spitz fell into the ice and almost dragged the whole team in. Buck persevered and tried his hardest to drag the team out of the ice. In contrast to Buck, my dad persevered when he got his new job, and the company downsized.

She has to ensure that while she gives Andy more responsibilities in line with his strength and also keep rewarding him for his superior performance. But on the other hand, it is important that she does the tough talking. Jane should tell Andy that good numbers are not enough and that Andy’s job and his growth in the organisation also depends on his ability to manage relationships with colleagues professionally. She should insist on positive behaviour as a condition of employment. Jane should take into confidence some of the senior managers in the organisation on this issue. Step 4: Redefine Organisation Structure and Roles There should be clear distinction between...

...narrator has truth in his words, but all events in the story point to the contrary. T. Corahessan Boyle, or T. C. Boyle for short, is an unreliable narrator. The truth of this story is not in the text, but in the underlying meanings and subliminal nuances. This hidden reality really helps the reader make a direct judgment of the characters. After reading between the lines, one quickly finds out who the characters are, but more importantly, who they are not. Every 19 year old boy wants to be tough. Reputation is everything to a teenager and toughness is the cornerstone of that reputation. Even though most boys at 19 are far from being truly tough, they sure do play the part. “Greasy Lake” outlines the adventure of three wanna’ be tough dudes. Throughout the story the author, also the narrator, leaves hints for the reader to help determine the characters background. He refers to them as ‘mistakes’ but after a while the reader realizes that the one sole mistake was the boys fronting to be tough in the first place. The second line of the story immediately triggers a judgment call for the reader. The narrator comes outright and says, “We were all dangerous characters then (Boyle 164).” Dangerous dudes are known for reputation, and reputation is built by ‘showing’ not ‘telling’. The reader now has to ask him/herself if the narrator is truly dangerous. If he is dangerous, there would not be a point in telling the audience in the second sentence, for that would surely spoil the rest...

...Alexander Team B discussed the decision making that the CEO of Xerox had to perform in the beginning of her tenure in order to get the company to where it is today, stable and competitive. I think that we all agreed that when she first took the position that she had to make some tough decisions by cutting departments which in turn meant cutting jobs which is always going to be a hard thing for any manager to do within any company. In the state that the company was in when the CEO took it over hard decisions had to be made in order to keep the company out of bankruptcy. She closed down the desktop printers division and focused on the commercial printers to give the company a boost in sales and it worked. Fast speed color printers are something needed in almost every company, Xerox just has to stay competitive with HP and Brother in order to keep the company running in the right direction. We also found it very interesting and noble that the CEO keeps the company to have a family fell to it. At sometimes one of the team members felt that this could be a downfall due to keeping a family orientated environment would cause a manager or anyone with an authoritative position not want to make the tough calls when needed closures, layoffs etc. The team also found it interesting that a former CEO that had left the company had been asked to come back and basically handpicked Anne Mulcaly to be his successor. It turned out to be the best move for the company and immediately began...

..."It was your two-word retranslation, Lee- 'Thou mayest.' It took me by the throat and shook me. And when the dizziness was over, a path was open, new and bright. And my life which is ending seems to be going on to an ending wonderful. And my music has a new last melody like a bird song in the night." Lee was peering at him through the darkness. "That's what it did to those old men of my family." "Thou mayest rule over sin, ' Lee. That's it. I do not believe all men are destroyed. I can name you a dozen who were not, and they are the ones the world lives by. It is true of the spirit as it is true of battles-Only the winners are remembered. Surely most men are destroyed, but there are others who like pillars of fire quite frightened men through the darkness. 'Thou mayest, Thou mayest!' What glory! It is true that we are weak and sick and quarrelsome, but if that is all we ever were, we would millenniums ago, have disappeared from the face of the earth. A few remnants of fossilized jawbone, some broken teeth in strata of limestone, would be the only mark man would have left of his existence in the world. But the choice, Lee, the choice of winning! I had never understood it or accepted it before. Do you see now why I told Adam tonight? I exercised the choice. Maybe I was wrong, but by telling him I also forced him to live or get off the pot. What is that word, Lee?" "Timshel," said Lee This passage portrays the theme of Timshel which means 'Thou mayest' in hebrew. Once Lee told...

...Being a girl can become a difficult life style. Between our stages in life, staggering attitudes and emotions… I don’t know how we would get through it. I myself am a girl, born and raised as one; so I know first hand that I can be very frail and take many chances. I’m also the target for a lot of people, for emotional support and other things. My parents depend a lot on me to take care of things when they can’t, especially because I'm the only girl. I recall my 5th grade classroom, the desks were set up in rows of six, and I sat in the middle row, of a large room filled with an average sized class. And that’s where he sat, right there in front of me; now being a female in a male bias world I found that most guys don’t expect you to know how to fight. And that’s where he made his mistake. His name was Tommy and he tried to take my pencil, this might not seem like a big deal now but ever since I was younger, I had an “obsessive compulsive disorder” type of thing; I absolutely positively could not stand to have people touching my things, or things that I had previously touched. So I asked him kindly to please not touch my things…he didn’t quite listen. He continued to grab for my book bag when I told him again “DO NOT TOUCH MY THINGS” I was getting madder and he didn’t seem to comprehend the level of seriousness displayed in my threatening tone. “Shut up” he snapped back at me “don’t be a tattle tale”. “I wont,” I said through my teeth “but stop touching my things” with an...

The killing of Candy's old dog, George and Lennie not speaking to Curley's wife, and the final decision George makes to shoot Lennie are all examples of showing some 'tough love'. When difficult choices are to be made, the solution may not always be what we desire. When Candy's “ancient dog” starts to bother the men in the bunkhouse, Carlson suggests to Candy that the dog should be shot. Candy, strongly...

...LOVE IS A CHOICE ITT Tech August 26, 2014 People say love at first site is not a choice. For me it was. I answered the door expecting a friend who had called ahead. He did not mention he was bringing a girl with him. And there she was. I knew I wanted this woman in my life even if I had to meant losing friends in the process. Things got really hard really fast. I chose to tough it out and I am still happier in these four years than I have ever been in any other long term relationship. I have had several long relationships, some as long as nine years, but the second I saw her it was as if time stopped and I became instantly enamored. I know some would say this was where decisions stoped and hormones took over, but for me it became crystal clear. I knew what had to be done. I had to pull an old 1985 movie trick and make her fall in love with me. So I played it cool and left my wallet in her car knowing she would have to see me again eventually. But that eventually turned into friends asking me to pick sides and to think with my head and be more rational. Several people did everything they could to tear us apart when we had only just begun. The original friend who brought her over even shot a gun at me. That bro code is a bitch. I had to choose. Lifelong friends or who I knew was my destiny. I just didn’t know destiny had such a rocky road. As soon as we became engaged she was diagnosed with cancer. Then be both lost our jobs and right after she...

... 1 Though the world often makes a hue and cry over the plight of single mothers and how tough life can be for them, people hardly discuss or care about single fathers, whose lives also become equally tough when they are left with a child. Ask any woman, and she will be the first to tell you how difficult it is to find a man who is responsible, caring and willing to do just about anything for the well-being of a family. Anyone would immediately jump at the opportunity, because frankly, these opportunities don’t come up that often. Anita Shreve’s novel Rescue, is about the difficulties one single father faces raising his daughter, and the struggles of maybe jumping into a marriage that was never supposed to be. Yet throughout his marriage he persevered and tried his best to be a good husband. Peter Webster’s story begins, significantly enough, when he meets Sheila who had totaled her car, fleeing from a man who was her boyfriend. Webster pulled Sheila alive from her totaled car, a first rescue that began a lifelong tangle of love and wreckage. Sheila Arsenault is a gorgeous enigma-streetwise and tough-talking girl, with haunted eyes, a fierce desire and a never look back determination. Webster, as straight as an arrow, fell for her instantly and entirely. Soon Sheila and Webster were embroiled in an intense love affair. Then marriage and parents to a baby daughter. Like the crash that...

...her ideas of love and marriage through the character in ‘The Color Purple’ and their relationships. Each character’s perception of love and marriage differs in the prime of the novel, yet as we progress and witness the trials and tribulations they endure, we see their ideas distort and reshape, or strengthen. Throughout the novel we are given a mixed bag of types of relationships, some are love-starved, others are brimming with love and some are only short bursts of love. From the early chapters of the novel we are given the fundamentals of the generic relationship back then; dominant male and submissive female (there is also the exception of Shug and Celie, even then it seems that Shug is more dominant than Celie). Most marriages throughout the novel aren’t particularly joyous; we rarely saw any love and most, and even when we do, violence is used to control their other-half’s behaviour. There are a few stable relationships that prevail, for example Nettie and the Reverend. With the different marriages that we encounter I believe that Walker is implying that marriage wasn’t so much to do with how much you loved the other person, but much to do with how much you could grow while being with the other person, or how much labour one would have to do while with their spouse. One message I feel that Walker is trying to depict is that marriage was just an institution that does not do much other than give men and excuse to control women. Another is that marriage, on love alone, will...
