Producer Consciousness Analysis

Decent Essays
Producer Consciousness is an idea that is very beneficial in making decisions that affect the outcome of one’s life. When initially choosing my major I had no idea what Producer Consciousness was, so this analysis was not taken into consideration. However, with that being said, looking back ultimately I made decisions consistent with Producer Consciousness. As bad as it may sound, perhaps the biggest driving factor when choosing my major was compensation. I felt like regardless of what I was doing, as long as I was being paid well I would be able to deal with the tasks at hand. In addition to compensation, I also wanted consistency. While change can be exciting and important in life I believe that consistency can also lead to a very well life.

    Leon Brooks finally regained consciousness. He couldn’t see. He was stuck in a trunk of a car with his hands and feet cuffed. Although he kept trying to wiggle his hands and feet free, he couldn’t release himself from the hand and leg cuffs. He couldn’t shout either (not that anyone would care) because they tied a rag across his mouth.…

    The biggest change I have made this semester is taking on a creator mindset/attitude. You could ask anyone that knows me and they would say I have a pessimistic attitude. I would always joke and say I’m a pessimist because I’m either right or I’m pleasantly surprised. Simple having the negative thoughts floating around in my head constantly has certainly been a dead weight holding me down.…
