’An abstract system of rules whereby a person’s mastery of their native language can be explained’ (dictionary definition) Different dictionaries define ’grammar’ in different ways, but they all effectively talk about the ’rules of the language’.

The ideal of home is not constricted to a single location, it dwells within the comforts of those close to you and can shift at any moment or circumstance.

When I feel like I accomplished a goal or achieved something that brought me great joy, success is the word that crosses

In our world today, success is the definition of happiness, but success is defined by being a doctor, with a white picket fence house and family. Anything less than that American ideal of perfection, and society deems your life unfit of the most basic emotion, happiness. I choose to pursue a career in the arts because I am worth it.

There are many definitions of Organizational Behavior (OB). In order to develop a personal operating definition of OB, I read several definitions to help form a framework of what OB means to me. The definitions I read ranged from the very complex to the very simple. Along with many OB definitions, there are also many different types of research.
