Living a good life Research Assignment Paper

Living a good life

People should set goals that are fully based on their own wants and interests, but unfortunately that is usually not the case. Some people pick goals that are based off of someone else’s wants and interests and other people limit their goals because they are afraid of failing. This directly relates to me and my goals. Before I wanted to become a Human Resource Manager, I genuinely wanted to become clinical therapist and own my own practice. Going into college, my plan was to major in Psychology and minor in Business. This way I could become a clinical therapist and also have enough business background to run my own practice. Unfortunately, I scared myself out of this goal because I was convinced that I wouldn’t be able to handle grad school and, ultimately, fail. Based off of previous experiences, when I fail I learn what not to do the next time. At the time, I knew that I would learn from my failure if I didn’t succeed in getting my masters, but I felt that it was too big of a risk. I also chose the easier route of less schooling because I was in a hurry to make money and start the rest of my life. LaPorte (2014) says, “constant racing for success creates habitual and unconscious goal setting” (p. 88). I created this new goal based on a fear of failing at my original goal.

The vision I have for myself is to get a job that I love going to and be surrounded by people I love for the rest of my life. I feel my best when I am around people I love or when I am focusing on me. I am honestly my happiest when I am focusing on my health. Not only do I love reaping the physical benefits of working out and eating well, but it honestly makes me feel more alive. Going to school and focusing so hard on my major has gotten in the way of me focusing on myself. I put a bunch of junk into my body because it is all I can afford and also because it is quick and easy. I also never have time to go to the gym, unless I sacrifice time that I should be spending on doing an assignment to the best of my abilities. This makes me dread school because it has become a burden to me. It has gotten in the way of the things I actually enjoy doing. Due to this, I would consider my goal to be sucking the life out of my soul. My soul is charged by the things I love to do, but my goals are getting in the way of me doing them. Although I know it is important to put in the maximum amount of effort into my classes, but maybe I shouldn’t kill myself in order to get an A on every assignment. It wouldn’t be the worst thing to get a B every once in awhile, just as long as I am still retaining the information being taught. I also need to get over my fear of failing. Once I am unafraid, I may be able to create soulful goals that I will genuinely want to accomplish. I need to trust myself, go out there, and fail until I succeed.

Physical Security locations Essay Paper

Physical Security locations

Find 2 Physical Locations within your community (Hospital, Businesses, Warehouses, Storage Units, your local bank, etc.) and do a quick “visual” walk-thru of the facility.

Write a 3-5 page paper describing the Physical Security of 2 Locations in the city or area where you live and submit the completed paper during the residency weekend. This is NOT an APA paper so References and Citations are not required.

Find 2 Physical Locations within your community (Hospital, Businesses, Warehouses, Storage Units, your local bank, etc.) and do a quick “visual” walk-thru of the facility.

As an example, if you chose a hospital, walk-thru the public areas and make some mental notes. Use caution – do NOT enter restricted areas and take care that you do not appear to be a threat.

What physical security elements did you see? What physical security elements did you not see? What physical security elements do you think exist even if you didn’t see them? What are the critical assets they protect. What level of physical security would be needed to effectively protect those assets?

In some cases, you might consider talking with the facility management to let them know you are completing an assignment dealing with Physical Security and see if the manager would be willing to talk with you about their physical security. Speaking with management is NOT a requirement.

The goal of this assignment is to think about what you did and did not see and consider whether the facility measures up to “what you think the textbook” considers is needed to effectively support its Physical Security needs.
