The document discusses how Fred DeLucca, the founder and CEO of Subway restaurants, insisted on putting the goal of having 10,000 stores by 2001 on napkins in every Subway location to commit himself to achieving that goal, even though it seemed unrealistic at the time. His answer for doing this was that if he publicly stated his goals in writing, he would be committed to achieving them. As of 2012, Subway had exceeded DeLucca's goal with over 36,222 restaurants in 98 countries.

![In the late 1990s, I asked Fred DeLucca, the founder and CEO of
Subway restaurants, why he insisted in putting the prediction
“10,000 stores by 2001” on the napkins in every single Subway. It
didn’t seem to make sense, as I knew he was a long way from his
goal, that consumers didn’t really care about his plan, and his
franchisees were deeply troubled by the competition associated
with such a goal. His answer was, “If I put my goals down in
writing and make them known to the world, I’m committed to
achieving them.”
Needless to say, he not only has, [sic] he’s exceeded them. (Cialdini, 2001 p. 71)
As of January 1, 2012 Subway had over 36,222 restaurants in 98 countries.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/goalsetting-130409164909-phpapp01/85/Goal-setting-1-320.jpg)

Rejection Messages and Organizational Reputation: Research Proposal Draft MSU
The present research examines rejection letters and their effect on applicants’ opinions of the sending organization. This topic is examined through a quantitative field study of actual applicant reactions. While the study of rejection messages is in its infancy, ample attention has been paid to the delivery of negative messages in general. Results indicate that direct, personal, and positive letters were preferable to their alternatives, while other perceived message factors were insignificant. Failure to send a rejection message was also correlated with a decrease in that firm’s organizational reputation. Exploratory measures on the message medium firms employed indicated practical results and future implications were discussed.

David Hartford witnessed the plight of Cambodian prostitutes taken from a recently closed brothel, which prompted him to pursue eliminating human trafficking and the sex trade through international human rights efforts. After spending time in Japan and Cambodia, he saw firsthand the complex issues of widespread prostitution in Thailand, where 90% of men have had intercourse with a prostitute. The sex trade is a major source of income in these countries, causing authorities to ignore the problems. Hartford seeks to reactivate and change the 'Not for Sale' organization at Adrian College to take more active steps beyond just raising awareness, such as forming a constitution to make the group sustainable.
Platonic Piety
This document summarizes Plato's dialogue Euthyphro, in which Socrates questions Euthyphro about the definition of piety. Euthyphro provides several attempted definitions, including that pious acts are loved by the gods or caring for the gods. However, Socrates points out flaws in each definition. They ultimately fail to agree on an essential definition of piety. The document suggests Plato viewed piety as involving relationships with the gods, but his own conception of it remains unclear.
CAFO Regulation and Political Action: A survey of local residents' attitudes
A survey of 300 Lenawee County, Michigan residents was conducted to understand attitudes toward Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs). Most respondents were initially unfamiliar with the term CAFO but knew what it referred to when given the definition. Respondents had varying views on whether CAFOs positively or negatively impact the local economy, property values, environment, and family farms. While a majority thought CAFOs should be regulated, only a small percentage had personally experienced problems caused by CAFOs. The survey found that Lenawee County residents have mixed opinions about CAFOs but generally support them as important to the local economy if properly regulated.

Goal setting
- 1. In the late 1990s, I asked Fred DeLucca, the founder and CEO of Subway restaurants, why he insisted in putting the prediction “10,000 stores by 2001” on the napkins in every single Subway. It didn’t seem to make sense, as I knew he was a long way from his goal, that consumers didn’t really care about his plan, and his franchisees were deeply troubled by the competition associated with such a goal. His answer was, “If I put my goals down in writing and make them known to the world, I’m committed to achieving them.” Needless to say, he not only has, [sic] he’s exceeded them. (Cialdini, 2001 p. 71) As of January 1, 2012 Subway had over 36,222 restaurants in 98 countries.

- 12. Eat That Frog! Take a clean sheet of paper right now and make out a list of ten goals you want to accomplish in the next year. Write your goals as though a year has already passed and they are now a reality. Use the present tense, positive and personal case so that they are immediately accepted by your subconscious mind. For example, you would write. “I earn X number of dollars per year.” Or “I weigh X number of pounds.” Or “I drive such and such a car.”
