As time goes on, music becomes an evermore necessity in everyday life. It has the power to influence behaviors and moods and even important decisions one fabricates in life. A device with that amount of power must have genuine, meticulous monitoring. Choosing between more uplifting music and more degrading music can be difficult surprisingly, simply considering that a collection of adults like rap and music categories like those that contain heaps of degrading messages.

It’s hard to pinpoint the order of things between cause and effect of different aspects of our psyche but it 's…

As I reminisce on them and compare them to what I hear and the literacies I’ve adjusted to in my everyday life, it is evident how different they are.

ways to persuade an audience to simple quotes in our everyday lives. After going through my notes, I found the seven concepts that stood out to me the most. The following are, Race is a social construct, “Life is always fixable”, the three steps to making a video go viral, Be Brief, Be Bright, Be Gone, RPIE, “Make the world a better place”, and The Five Levels of Leadership. The following concepts are already concepts I use in my everyday life and others and the others I plan on taking with me…

they heard, especially if they repeatedly undergo the same judgments. Their constant feeling of being invalidated and humiliated may lead to fatigue and build up of anger that may cause them life-changing effects such as change in career decisions and etc. It may cause a domino effect in the individual’s life, until they just stop trying and acquire learned helplessness. Another reason why blatant discrimination may cause less harmful impacts than microaggression is that when blatant belittling…

A developmental profile is a way to observe and record the occupations that a subject completes in their everyday life.
