taught me the value of hard work, learning from mistakes and being a leader. You cannot be your best without the help of others.

capital of the world. In addition, it attracts many tourists because of its historic district. I really enjoy driving everyday about 35 minutes along the tall trees and the green fields before I get in the torture house (that’s what I use to call my work place). I begin working at 4 pm and I usually get off after 1 am. I felt tired especially because this is my first job in my life. The good thing is I get paid weekly, it was a 10$ per hour, it was not enough for me to take care of my family.…

Power of Ambition We humans have always desired power and in decades, our ambitions have blinded us. What we are capable of doing to get what we want, might sometimes surprises us and afterwards leaves us unrecognisable. Even though the amount of power of ambition varies from person to person, the theme has at least created inspiration for many great stories. Some, which morals I will touch upon throughout this essay. First off, we have the famous Shakespeare play; Macbeth. A story in which…

Knowledge is Power Everyone has the ability improve their knowledge every day- if they are willing to. “The Danger of a Single Story,” a speech given by Chimamanda Adichie, “The Lunch Date,” a short film directed by Adam Davidson, and the short story, “Gryphon,” written by Charles Baxter, all demonstrated how society can judge one another solely based on prejudices. This phenomenon was highlighted through racial presumptions and snap judgements in these stories. “The Danger of a Single Story,”…

People issues at work happen in all corners of the workplace. A few of the most common issues in workplaces that can result in disputes are absenteeism, cultural differences, lack of productivity, insubordination, misconduct, harassment and substandard work amongst others. Many a time, a positive approach may solve the problem without having to discipline.

Work, what is truly the definition of work? It’s genuinely hard to quantify “work”. Is it true that if you love your job or some task, you won’t have to work a day in your life?
