I would like to believe that I learned my personal ethics from my family more importantly my parents. Growing up my parents thought me many things that had several messages attached to them. Those messages I now use on a daily basis most importantly in my career. One of the ethics that I could remember is to be caring and loyal friend, neighbor, family, or co-worker. Having these two ethicses has guided me to the field of psychology and is still helping me.…
Ethical Parameters Applicable to Business Situations The FSLA or Fair Labor Standards Act was established in 1938 by Congress to protect workers from exploitation and ensure the opportunity for people to earn a “living wage”. The Principals set forth in the act apply to non-exempt employees. Non-exempt simply means employees that are paid an hourly wage. As the name suggests, there are certain types of employees that are exempt from the rules set forth by the FSLA, which we will discuss further later on.…
If there’s anything I’ve learned from these past few years is that you can achieve your goals. It might be hard at first, but if you motivate yourself and work hard you can do it. Without, my avid teachers and my family’s support I wouldn't know what to do. I know that these are hard goals, but I believe I can do it, I will do it. I encourage you to set goals for…
My situation is very similar to the one of Pablo and Bruno’s in such a way that I have always dreamed of excelling and continuing to be persistent so that my goals would be attainable! I always shared my thoughts and notions with close family and friends, however sometimes they weren’t as enthusiastic as I was about my own idea. There were times I was fightened, let down and even discouraged, but that never once misled me to the path Ive paved on my own. While, I was living in Georgia, not going very far an opputunity came for me to move back to Florida. Without hesitation I took the offer, so I could better educate myself at Florida SouthWestern State College.…
Every goal I want to fulfil is because of my mom who acts as a constant reminder that I can do anything if I have enough determination, she always told me “persevera y triunfaras” meaning persevere and you’ll succeed. One extracurricular activity I joined was Senior Mentoring, in order for me to become a Senior Mentor I had to apply to be a Senior Mentor and depending on your grades and GPA you’ll be able to become a Senior Mentor, Senior Mentors help Freshmen with their transition from middle school to high school, each Senior Mentor has at least five freshmen and all have different attitudes. When I decided to become a Senior Mentor for me, it was a difficult decision, I knew that I wasn’t going to have to Mentees that were the same, they…
Personal Code of Ethics Assignment Principle 1: Love for others what you love for yourself- It is my belief that if I love something for myself than I must also love it for others around me. This means being mindful and considerate of others in my day to day interactions. This also means not being envious or showing hatred toward someone who has something better than me, cause if I would want it myself than I must also want it for others around me.…
Personal Ethical Dilemma Paper – Driving under the Influence My cousin and I have had a close relationship for most of my lifetime. Prior to my birth, he would regularly sleep over at my parent’s house to receive forbidden sweets. After I was born, he would sleep over to watch over a newly born me. His continued protection over my life deepened as we got older, and he was there for me whenever I needed.…
People often do or take parts in acts that are not only morally wrong but also extremely painful to the victim. When someone is order by a higher authority figure they do what was ordered forgetting about their morals and the consequences that it may have. It is important to understand that just because the order was given by a person with a high status or rank it doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to do. In 1963 Stanly Milgram a psychologist at Yale University carried out an experiment where he tested the obedience of people. He wanted to know if people followed order depending on how superior there title was.…
and I felt like I could always accomplish my goals if I try to best I can. All in all, throughout my education I have learned that your educational goals are important and without any effort, you will never achieve your educational goals and my new educational goals today are to receive my Bachelor’s Degree at a State…
We need to chase our dreams and no matter what never give up and keep going. Never give up on your dreams and keep searching your destiny no matter…
A child’s early formative years are the most crucial in determining the growth, personality and goals of the individual. The Transactional Analysis theory supports this statement as it enables people to explore the origins of their personality and allows one to understand why he/ she is the way he/she is. I have come to realize that my coping mechanisms are reflected in the adoption and switching of ego states that takes place depending on the situation. Although there are times when I move to the adaptive child state or the critical parent ego state, my dominant ego state may be the adult stage.…
However, through it all I had the courage to push and reevaluate some of these decisions that caused me to lament on reaching my goal. I consciously decided not to hold any grudges toward my parents because hadn’t I suffered, I would never I appreciate life as I do today. I have learned to forgive and not to ever give up upon my dream no matter what. Instead I have used those failures as a platform to stand up tall so I can reach higher and higher. I have grown through it all and experienced many difficulties which in turn prepare me for…
To develop a statement about that incorporates all the aspects of my personal moral and ethical code I had to reflect back on my life, my decisions, actions and the manner in which I was raised. I have always know what I should do but now I can look back and label my choices and understand why I made the decisions I did. My statement is this I subscribe the rule of Hard Universalism, the theory of psychological egoism and because we are always selfish I believe utilitarianism represents the base desires of personhood. Everyone believes their desire is for the greater good and the right choice because they are selfish, these theories go hand in hand and dictate many of the actions of people in this world as well as the cravings we strive to rise above.…
