5. History I created this theory of Organizational Success probably when I was in middle school and decided from this point on I wanted to receive no grades lower then an A or B in any of my future educational endeavors. During this time period in my life my parents were taking my educational success more seriously then ever before and I soon began to realize if I wanted to be successful and be accepted to the high school and college of my choice I needed to start proving myself to my parents, teachers, and most importantly my worst and harshest critic, myself.

6. History I wanted to impress my parents who were becoming more concerned with my grades and school work I wanted to impress my teachers and get good grades and show I was smart

8. Theory Classification Scientific/Objective Standard 1: Explanation of the data: States a good objective theory explains an event or human behavior. The Organizational Theory of Success meets standard 1 because it brings clarity and makes easy sense of one’s educational plan and classes when it can very easily get hectic. Keeping a binder with dividers for each class as I touched on in the theory is helpful and clarifies the confusion of jumbling together more then one class at a time. It also explains one’s behaviors and what is needed to succeed. One needs to be organized by keeping detailed notes, enough supplies at all times paper, pens, pencils. Also be using dividers to keep each class separate from one another.

24. Kristi’s Communication Theory Human communication I believe is based upon messages we send one another without even talking. Communication is everything in our society all we do is communicate. Through Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and other multiple multimedia sites and outlets. However what we sometimes do without saying anything can be even more powerful then words themselves.
