This document provides a summary of Dutch post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh. It notes that he was active as an artist for only 10 years, during which he produced around 1,000 drawings and sketches and 1,250 paintings. While he only sold one painting during his lifetime, his works now sell for record sums. The document also challenges the popular view of van Gogh as a misunderstood and tormented artist, noting that within 5 years other artists and a critic had recognized his talent. It concludes by stating that at the time of his death by suicide, no one could have predicted his immense impact or how his letters would cement his image as a tragic artistic genius.

· What are you good at?- am very good at using good personal judgement and decision implementation. I can take a situation and make a decision for an effective alternative route.
· What do you need to improve? I need to work on not second guessing my self. This causes me to have uncertainty.
· What do you enjoy doing? I enjoy making a difference in a positive way. I like feeling involved in important decisions.
· What are some of the things that you find unpleasant? I don't like dealing with conflict. It is hard for me to make decisions that can negatively impact others.
· Give examples that support your ideas for each statement. when I worked with United healthcare's training department I discovered much about what I was good at and what I was not good at. I was tasked to make group decisions on how to improved the training material and process. I was also faced with walking trainees in not so pleasant processes such as QA.
· Identify career opportunities and threat by researching (cite them) job prospects in the industry you’re interested in. The biggest threat I found in my research would be technology.
Sierra Defrancisco- posted
What are you good at? Within the workplace I am good at staying on task and focused. I am good at following directions given and helping out others that are confused or overwhelmed. I have always been good at following directions which has helped me to learn so many new things about cooking in the kitchen.
What do you need to improve? I can improve on multitasking, working quickly and efficiently, and striving to move up in the workplace. I talk quite a lot and I find it hard to talk to the servers and work at the same time so i need to find the happy medium.
What do you enjoy doing? I enjoy helping others, completing tasks from start to finish, and bettering the environment around me any way possible. Every time I come into work I create a to do list and it is very satisfying being able to cross stuff off of the list.
What are some of the things that you find unpleasant? I don't like drama, a dirty workplace, liars within the workplace, and cheaters. The kitchen that I work in can get very dirty sometimes and a dirty workplace leads to messy products.
There are career opportunities as a cake decorator or assistant bakery manager at a company called Nothing Bundt Cakes. This business has been open for a while and they do wedding and party cakes. This could possibly be competition for the bakery I am looking at opening. There are also positions available at Sam's club, Walmart, and Panera. Nothing Bundt Cakes would be the most competition for the bakery.

How to succeed in College
Topic: How to Succeed in College
Introduction – Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven’t planted. – David BlyI never thought that in my forty’s that I would be about to graduate from college, never in a million years would I have dreamed this.
Thesis Statement - I decided to enroll back in college about three months prior to my son was about to graduate from high school, it was my goal to complete what I started many years ago.
I. First Main Point – Personal Reasons
A. It has always in a goal of minds to earn a college degree, so I first decided to go for nursing degree, so I did some research on where to get started with a nursing career.
B. And that led me to become a nursing assistant in a skilled nursing home. I would be able to help take care of people directly. Which I loved to do.
A certified nursing assistant (CNA) provides varying levels of care and support to physically and/or mentally disabled individuals who are unable to care for themselves. CNAs care for patients of all ages in hospitals, inpatient mental health facilities, and clinics. Some certified nurse assistants are employed by a patient’s family and make in-home visits, where they physically care for the patient and provide companionship. Many CNAs are employed at nursing homes and assisted living facilities for the elderly.
These workers fill an important and necessary role in society. Without the help of CNAs, many patients would not receive the physical and mental care they need and deserve. A career as a certified nursing assistant invites both challenges and rewards. As the baby-boomer generation ages, CNAs should be in greater demand; the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects the number of these workers to increase by 11% between 2016 and 2026. The median annual CNA salary is around $29,000, and certified nurse assistants employed by the government earn almost $34,000 a year.
C. So I spoke with my adviser on the college campus that I was about to attend for my nursing classes, I wanted to know how to get help with classes that I might struggle in and what was the passing rates with students entering this program.
II. Second Main Point – Financial Reasons
A. I didn’t want to struggle all of my life as I had watched other people around me as teenager, I wanted to be comfortable with a stable career.
B. So after having my son while I was in my last year of high school, I knew that financially I need to make some stable money to take care of the both of us.
C. And I knew that I wanted to travel the world, so this career financially would help me achieve that goal.
III. Third Main Point – Emotional Reasons
A. being able to show my child that life comes with ups and downs but long as you got family an friends there to support you in any way, that you c ...

This document provides a summary of Dutch post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh. It notes that he was active as an artist for only 10 years, during which he produced around 1,000 drawings and sketches and 1,250 paintings. While he only sold one painting during his lifetime, his works now sell for record sums. The document also challenges the popular view of van Gogh as a misunderstood and tormented artist, noting that within 5 years other artists and a critic had recognized his talent. It concludes by stating that at the time of his death by suicide, no one could have predicted his immense impact or how his letters would cement his image as a tragic artistic genius.

· What are some of the things that you find unpleasant? I don't like dealing with conflict. It is hard for me to make decisions that can negatively impact others.
· Give examples that support your ideas for each statement. when I worked with United healthcare's training department I discovered much about what I was good at and what I was not good at. I was tasked to make group decisions on how to improved the training material and process. I was also faced with walking trainees in not so pleasant processes such as QA.
· Identify career opportunities and threat by researching (cite them) job prospects in the industry you’re interested in. The biggest threat I found in my research would be technology.
Sierra Defrancisco- posted
What are you good at? Within the workplace I am good at staying on task and focused. I am good at following directions given and helping out others that are confused or overwhelmed. I have always been good at following directions which has helped me to learn so many new things about cooking in the kitchen.
What do you need to improve? I can improve on multitasking, working quickly and efficiently, and striving to move up in the workplace. I talk quite a lot and I find it hard to talk to the servers and work at the same time so i need to find the happy medium.
What do you enjoy doing? I enjoy helping others, completing tasks from start to finish, and bettering the environment around me any way possible. Every time I come into work I create a to do list and it is very satisfying being able to cross stuff off of the list.
What are some of the things that you find unpleasant? I don't like drama, a dirty workplace, liars within the workplace, and cheaters. The kitchen that I work in can get very dirty sometimes and a dirty workplace leads to messy products.
There are career opportunities as a cake decorator or assistant bakery manager at a company called Nothing Bundt Cakes. This business has been open for a while and they do wedding and party cakes. This could possibly be competition for the bakery I am looking at opening. There are also positions available at Sam's club, Walmart, and Panera. Nothing Bundt Cakes would be the most competition for the bakery.

How to succeed in College
Topic: How to Succeed in College
Introduction – Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven’t planted. – David BlyI never thought that in my forty’s that I would be about to graduate from college, never in a million years would I have dreamed this.
Thesis Statement - I decided to enroll back in college about three months prior to my son was about to graduate from high school, it was my goal to complete what I started many years ago.
I. First Main Point – Personal Reasons
A. It has always in a goal of minds to earn a college degree, so I first decided to go for nursing degree, so I did some research on where to get started with a nursing career.
B. And that led me to become a nursing assistant in a skilled nursing home. I would be able to help take care of people directly. Which I loved to do.
A certified nursing assistant (CNA) provides varying levels of care and support to physically and/or mentally disabled individuals who are unable to care for themselves. CNAs care for patients of all ages in hospitals, inpatient mental health facilities, and clinics. Some certified nurse assistants are employed by a patient’s family and make in-home visits, where they physically care for the patient and provide companionship. Many CNAs are employed at nursing homes and assisted living facilities for the elderly.
These workers fill an important and necessary role in society. Without the help of CNAs, many patients would not receive the physical and mental care they need and deserve. A career as a certified nursing assistant invites both challenges and rewards. As the baby-boomer generation ages, CNAs should be in greater demand; the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects the number of these workers to increase by 11% between 2016 and 2026. The median annual CNA salary is around $29,000, and certified nurse assistants employed by the government earn almost $34,000 a year.
C. So I spoke with my adviser on the college campus that I was about to attend for my nursing classes, I wanted to know how to get help with classes that I might struggle in and what was the passing rates with students entering this program.
II. Second Main Point – Financial Reasons
A. I didn’t want to struggle all of my life as I had watched other people around me as teenager, I wanted to be comfortable with a stable career.
B. So after having my son while I was in my last year of high school, I knew that financially I need to make some stable money to take care of the both of us.
C. And I knew that I wanted to travel the world, so this career financially would help me achieve that goal.
III. Third Main Point – Emotional Reasons
A. being able to show my child that life comes with ups and downs but long as you got family an friends there to support you in any way, that you c ...

Case 1: Family Loyalty vs. Meritocracy
A man was appointed president of the newly-acquired Philippine subsidiary of a large American company. He was reviewing the organization with the company's head of human resources. One thing the president noted was that the same names reoccurred frequently in several departments. "It is our tradition," commented the HR head. "Families take care of their own. If one family member gets a good job in a Philippine company, other members of the family apply to join that company and the first member there can help the whole family become successful by helping them get hired and by coaching them to be successful. The company benefits. Our costs of recruiting are lower, we know more about the people we hire, and the commitment to family success results in fewer performance and discipline problems because family members want to please their older relatives."
The president wondered how these practices would be regarded in a large American firm, and whether or not he should take action to change them.
1. Nepotism is not illegal, but is it ethical?
2. If the business is family-owned, does that make a difference?
3. How does national culture affect this discussion?
Case 2: Is the Two-Tier System Ethically Problematic
Employees at a cereal makers plant were “locked-out” from their jobs producing cereal for over 3 months. Company management and the union representing the employees reached a stalemate in negotiations resulting in the lockout. The union claims that the primary issue is the company’s demand of dramatically increasing the number of temporary workers, who would earn $6 less per hour and receive fewer benefits. Critics claim this effectively creates a two-tier system at the plant. Under the current agreement, the company may use temporary workers for up to 30% of the workforce, but the union claims the company is now pushing for 100%. The workers, who have had their health insurance suspended, fear that their jobs will either be replaced entirely by temporary workers, or they will be f ...
Barbara Corcoran Learns Her Heart’s True Desires In her.docx
Barbara Corcoran Learns Her Heart’s True Desires
In her hilarious and lighthearted book, Shark Tales: How I Turned $1,000 Into a
Billion Dollar Business, Barbara Corcoran demonstrates the importance of knowing what
you really want out of life (Corcoran & Littlefield, 2011). As her title suggests, Barbara
founded her real estate company, The Corcoran Group, with only $1,000 and some big
dreams. Shortly after founding the company, Barbara took out a piece of paper and wrote
down some big goals for herself and the company. In 1978, she had only 14 sales agents
working for her, who earned a total of $250,000 in commissions. She set a goal of
doubling the number of agents and the commissions every year. So she put down 28 sales
people for 1979, 56 for 1980, and so on, all the way up to 1,792 salespeople in 1985 with
total commissions of $32,000,000. Barbara was amazed when she saw the fantastic sums
projected for 1985, and of course many people, when they see such amazing sums, would
dismiss the calculations as fantasy But as Barbara put it, she went to work the next day
hustling hard for her $32 million.
Real estate agents are paid largely by commission, which is about as close as you
can get to a pure form of contingent reward for performance. However, Barbara didn’t
rely solely on the commissions to motivate her workers. She threw theme parties and held
numerous social events to build a committed workforce. Good sales agents could always
move to another firm, but not every firm had Barbara’s positive attitude and fun-filled
atmosphere. In the early years of the firm, when money was tight, Barbara and her
relatives did the cooking for the outings and parties, and she found clever ways to
entertain people with skating parties and other lively activities. As the firm became larger
and more profitable, she even hired professional entertainers for the company’s midweek
picnics, which included elephant shows, daring rides on hot air balloons, horses, or
Harley Davidsons, etc. Barbara stated “I built my company on pure fun, and believe that
fun is the most underutilized motivational tool in business today. All of my best ideas
came when I was playing outside the office with the people I worked with” (Corcoran &
Littlefield, 2011, p. 283). What did she get in return for the fun atmosphere? She had the
“most profitable real estate company per person in the United States” (p. 284). By the
time she sold her agency in 2001, she had 1,000 agents working for her, and she had the
largest real estate agency in New York – clearly her motivational strategies attracted a
large number of productive employees.
Barbara Corcoran had sold her firm for $66 million. She thought that would make
her happy, but instead, it made her sad. Although she pretended to be happy with her new
wealth and freedom, she was “secretly miserable” (Corcoran & Littlefield, 2011, p. 232).
She had lost her purpose ...

Barriers of therapeutic relationshipThe therapeutic relations.docx
Barriers of therapeutic relationship:
The therapeutic relationship between patient and nurse is often filled with barriers that can generate obstacles for the relationship and, in the end, the health system as a whole (Sfoggia et al.,2014). There are many factors that hinder building a therapeutic relationship: language, professional jargon, communication impairment, and cultural diversity (ibid).
Language:
Language can be an obstacle to nurse-patient communication because a patient may not be able to speak the same language and therefore communication is not possible (Levin,2006). The best way to overcome this barrier is providing a translator who can explain a professional facilitator's message easily to the patient(ibid). For instance, if the nurse only speaks English but the patient is only able to speak Arabic, a translation to the patient of what the professional facilitator is saying leads to less chance of misunderstanding (ibid). Translation also allows a patient to feel comfortable through being able to speak in their own language (ibid).
Medical jargon:
Jargon is a technical language that is comprehended by people in a specific industry or area of work (Leblanc et al.,2014). Health professionals often use jargon to communicate with each other(ibid). For example, T.B. disease stands for tubercle bacillus and HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus (Mccrary & Christensen,1993). Jargon often makes sense to health professionals but a patient who does not understand these acronyms will not understand such communication, leading to a barrier in therapeutic relationship between patient and health professional (Leblanc et al.,2014).
Communication impairment:
Patients with communication impairment such as blindness, deafness and speech impairment often feel isolated, frustrated and self-conscious (O’Halloran et al.,2009). Some patients are born with such disabilities or have developed them as a result of disease (ibid). Therefore, nurses should provide enough time in order to describe any issue to such patients so that they do not feel uncomfortable or censured by health professionals, who must remain impartial (ibid).
Cultural diversity:
Patients often have various differences (Leblanc et al.,2014).Some of these differences are due to a patient's illness, social status, economic class, education and personality(ibid). However, according to Kirkham (1998), the deepest differences might be cultural diversity. Beheri (2009) points out that many nurses believe if they just treat patients with respect, they will avoid most cultural issues. Nevertheless, avoiding misunderstanding can be achieved through some knowledge of cultural customs, which might help and enable nurses to provide better health care to patients (ibid).
Facilitators of therapeutic relationship:
UNCRPD (2006) states that the most fundamental human right in hospital is communication. Patients are required to be provided with an effective communication method by nurs ...

Critical Analysis of the religious nature of Buddhism
The religious community often debates on whether Buddhism is categorized as a religion or as philosophical teaching. The answer to the question varies depending on an individual’s point of view. There are three main types of Buddhism practices across the world with each of them having smaller branches with slights variances in their teachings and beliefs. The different styles of Buddhist mainly encompass Theravada Buddhism, Vajrayana Buddhism, and Mahayana Buddhism. The various forms often have deities that are worshipped while others do not. Some often have scriptures while others do not usually believe in any physical form of the Buddhist teachings. The first article is authored by Rachel, a blogger, presenting the argument that Buddhism is a religion (Rachel, 1). On the other hand, the second article authored by Pamela Winfield recognizes Buddhism as a philosophy. Analyzing and comparing the two pieces having divergent views on the religious nature of Buddhism is crucial for understanding whether it is a religion or philosophy.
Summary of the articles
Rachel in her article considers Buddhism as a religion. The author acknowledges the fact that Mahayana Buddhism which is often found in greater part of Asia that includes Japan, Korea, and China often teaches on attaining enlightenment (Rachel, 1). The Mahayana often accept that every individual wishes to ensure the effective attainment of enlightenment and thus end the cycle of rebirth which others recognize as “Karma.” The article proceeds to state that Buddha is the greatest of the deities but is not worshipped. Instead, Buddha often inspires all those who practice doing as he once did. The author states that Buddhism often requires that the individuals that choose the wrong path attempt to re-accomplish these tasks in their next life alongside other punishments imposed on them by karma. The characteristics of this type of Buddhism thus often play a significant role in showing the religious nature of Buddhism. The author concludes by stating that Buddhism often contains all the different elements of a religion. Moreover, the article associates Buddhism with fallacies that characterize other religions and just as dangerous as other religions as well. A quote proves the claim on the dangerous nature of Buddhism that the author uses to summarize the teachings of Buddhism.
On the other hand, Winfield tends to focus on enlightening the readers on some of the aspects of Buddhism that ensures its a ...

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
