My PLSI and temperament results from the Tieger article indicate that I am more of an idealist. I believe that my personality is a result of my ability to make choices from my point of view and not from the influence of other parties. From my point of view, I tend to concentrate more on achieving my personal goals in life. Additionally, I also believe that I motivate myself in all the undertakings and I do not need the approval of other people to get moving. Furthermore, I tend to get interested in trying to gain new knowledge that will help me in different aspects of life. Therefore, I can confirm that from my personality, self-growth is my central motivating that is to develop myself and be a better person every day.
In additionally to this, I tend to believe that creating good relationships with other people is one of the best ways of ensuring progress and achieve the set goals and objectives. I tend to dislike conflicts or any confrontation since these two only bring division and thus reducing the chances of peaceful co-existence. Moreover, I believe that I helping people is one of the best ways of gaining new experience on how to handle different situations in life. Therefore, I think that I prefer both intuition and feeling, this is because I tend to understand issues and aspects without conscious reasoning. I believe that my purpose in life is to change situations and make the world a better place by helping those who are not in a position to help themselves in various ways. Therefore, I believe that I tend to help people realize their potential by motivating them to become the best of themselves. I also think that I can settle conflicts and this is mainly because battles are a source of division and eventually bringing fallout in teams. Hence, I believe that I can help people work together in harmony and an efficient manner. Moreover, I also tend to appreciate other people’s work. Thus I can describe myself as being a good motivator. Also, I believe that I can define myself as being an idealist since I have excellent communication skills, and even I think that I am an eloquent individual. From the article, my PLSI results indicate that I have excellent social interaction skills. That can listen to what other people say, and I know when to respond to a particular situation and when not to respond to a particular issue. I also believe in the aspect of turn taking during a conversation, because I think that this is the best way to ensure that all people are involved in the process without feeling discriminated or feeling left out. The results from this particular article portray my personality in the best way possible and also the results are in line with my work preference of being a community organizer.
From the research, I did not find any surprising results. However, the idea that idealists make decisi.

From the research, I did not find any surprising results.
However, the idea that idealists make decisions based on their
judgment was a point of interest. I realized that all along I had
been going decisions without considering the opinion of others.
However, I view this as a weakness since most of the times I
believe in my own choices and I think that they are the best thus
I tend to look down upon the choices of other people. The
results were in line with my future profession. This is because
3. as an aspiring community organizer, I believe that I have what
it takes to organize social settings and also running these
settings with the aim of making the society a better place and
helping those who are not in a position to help themselves.
Additionally, I believe that the results were in line with my core
values which are making the world a better place and also
utilizing the life given opportunities in the best way possible

Your Customized Degree Plan
In the Unit 8 Assignment, you will identify your intended career
and academic goals, and then apply your critical thinking skills
to formulate a logical solution and develop your Customized
Criminal Justice Degree Plan to achieve your career and
educational goals. You will accomplish this by using the
information provided about Kaplan University’s Criminal
Justice program and classes, combined with your intended
career and academic goals, to review and select the elective
classes for your Customized Criminal Justice Degree Plan. This
will give you a preliminary academic map to work toward your
degree goal throughout your study at Kaplan University.
This Assignment has two parts:
In Part I you will create your Customized Degree Plan in an
Excel spreadsheet and select your electives. Part II asks you to
explain the reasoning behind your choices in your degree plan.

As you may have noticed, your degree plan has both required
courses and courses that you get to choose, called electives. To
create your Customized Degree Plan, you will choose each of
the elective classes that will fulfill the elective credit hour
requirements in your degree plan. The point of this exercise is
to get you actively involved in your class choices based on your
career plans.
8. Think about the career plan you have made for yourself and
decide whether you are more interested in pursuing a more
general knowledge of the criminal justice field (i.e., police
officer) or perhaps a more concentrated area such as corrections
(i.e., corrections officer). Cater your elective choices to fit your
career needs. You may choose to follow the sample degree plans
provided or create your own elective choices.
