Gray-zone conflicts currently present the most significant security threat confronting U.S. strategists and planners. Recent events by Russia in the Ukraine and China in the South China Sea are current examples of these gray-zone threats. Applying components from two international relations (IR) theories to gray-zone conflicts will create a framework for U.S. strategists. Using components of realism and liberalism and combining them will provide the U.S. a policy instrument with both hard and…

Friedrich Hayek, who had great impact on the period of Thatcher’s administration, was one of the most prominent economists in the 20th centuries after the Second World War. Although he was not a libertarian, Hayek was considered to be a classical liberal with a relatively conservative view on the government involvement in economy. In the early decades of 1900s, due to the Great Depression in the U.S in the 1930s, many European and American economists started to doubt “liberalism” and the…

Organization is a thing I struggle with at times. The reason being is I sometimes I just throw everything together and do not actually take the time to put things in order. When I do organize my things I get one big notebook and put four dividers in it to separate my classes from each other. I always put the first divider as Math because it is always the class that I get a lot of papers and information for. I first put the written down notes in the front such as problems that I have worked out,…

Excitement lead me to be earlier than expected in the office of my event planner. “Let’s get this party started” I remembered him saying. We sat and delight ourselves with the presentation his team had prepared for us, creativity at its best. The invitation designs, the furnitures, the food and beverage catering, the whole party as a design was a fantasy that lead me to the whole college major issue. I felt enjoyment and pleasure during the planification of my “quinceañera” and it made me think…

Daniel Goleman lays out a 14 step plan to learn and teach emotional intelligence in the best way possible.

Life has a mysterious way of bringing wants and desires into it. For instance, a couple that just recently had their first new born might instantaneously have a desire for a new vehicle, perhaps a minivan. I personally believe Napoleon Hill quotes it best in his book, Think and Grow Rich, “The starting point of all achievement is desire. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desire brings weak results, just as a small fire makes a small amount of heat.” (Hill.168). Napoleon Hill, was a well- known…

complained that in most cases, they have no choice but are forced by circumstances to replace the “planning for competition”. This is because technological changes occur so rapidly that they afterwards weaken the competition unconsciously. Therefore, planners have often argued that technological…

the room at the beginning of the class. They fill out their planners for the classes they have during the day. All of the assignments for my classroom are already on the board. We take Lunch count, attendance, and listen to the Daily Announcements. After we have completed this, we start with a daily problem from the lesson the day before to review. Then we begin our lessons. At the end of the hour, I give them time to make sure their planners are accurate and they mark the assignments finished…

plan accordingly. Then with this I also use a weekly planner in order to plan more effectively and ensure that there’s no wasted time within my day. For example, I started using the monthly calendar and weekly planner mainly for school, work, and community service. The monthly calendar lets me know dates of events like family gatherings or community service activities, work schedule, and when assignments are due or when tests are. The weekly planner helps me organize and plan more effectively…
