Introduction

“To understand how the brain constructs reality, it is important to shift from the confinements that cause fear of failure and look at the world from different perspectives." Fear of failure limits the way individuals become motivated to achieve their goals since the majority lack the desire to make bold decisions in academic, professional and other life experiences. According to Bain, there are three types of learners: those who do little to succeed in their education, those who are more interested in higher grades than the understanding of the curriculum contents and those who are driven by the need ...

I chose my essay to be ‘an argument for making the death penalty mandatory for murders’ because it has been a dilemma in the society. There have been sections advocating for its abolishment and those for its reinforcement. However, statistics show that murder rates are increasing and break outs in prison increase due to advanced technology, hence there have been calls to make the death penalty for murder mandatory so as to rid offenders from the society and prevent the crime reoccurring.
To make my essay stronger for the portfolio, I did revisions in the four sections of the ...

Should the death penalty be mandatory for people that kill other people?

The saying goes do unto others what you would have them do unto you. Therefore, the price for taking away life should cost the offender his or her life.

The death penalty is a controversial issue and people base their arguments for or against death penalty on practical, emotional, religious or practical grounds. People in favor of the capital punishment argue that it improves peace in the society by ensuring that such people do not ...

Of all wars to have been conducted by the USA, the war on drugs is the least promising, with government and law enforcement agencies fighting it in a losing battle. When American authorities got it going some 4 decades ago, it was doomed to be a losing war for a number of reasons, of which one is a historic precedent never taken into consideration. It is well-documented that the only lesson we ever learn from history is that we do not learn any lessons from it at all. However, what America should learn is that conventional tools of mandatory bans and restrictions imposed ...

Introduction

Humanitarian intervention as a concept can be traced back to the seventeenth century. This is the time when the foundations for the contemporary internationally recognized system of sovereignty of states and the principle that such sovereign states have control over all the matters within their borders was established. Since them, the concept has been reformed to enable the international community through the United Nations to protect citizens within sovereign states from human rights abuse, civil wars, ethnic cleansing and political abuse (Piereson, 2013). Although the United Nations charter does not allow the intervention in sovereign states, various humanitarian crises since ...

As one would be aware that Capitalism is the form of an economic system that dominates the world these days. This system has evolved out of human’s natural trading process. However, as put by Robert Heilbroner, it is both beneficial and dysfunctional for the society. Here I would argue that it provides greater good for the society. This ability also implies whether it also expected to dominate the centuries ahead.
Before we discuss the role of capitalism in the next century, we must acknowledge that it is near impossible for any economist to predict any major economic ...

Introduction

Effective and efficient decision-making in service delivery can be compromised by non-involvement of key personnel or over-involvement of lower-echelon employees, which leads to a slowed-down process. The problem is how to determine the trade-offs to make in this situation as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the traditional, top-down approach versus the horizontal approach. This question is especially important today because, in the recent past, decision-makers in the public and private sectors have made a high number of poor decisions. An example of this is the securitization of subprime mortgage loans or using credit default swaps to hedge risk. This ...

In some states, it has been discussed that all recipients of public funds be drug tested before money can be received.

The Place OF the African Petty Bourgeoisie

Introduction

It has widely been said that African leaders have failed so much in their leadership starting from the time they took leadership from the white colonizers.

Argumentative Essay

Military innovation contributes to the success of states in war. However, it has been shown in the literature that the U.S. and Britain failed to significantly innovate or revolutionize their military in the interwar period. This paper argues that this failure is primarily rooted in two major factors: anti-militarism attitudes, and a military culture that disregards the usefulness of past military experiences to future wars. During the interwar period, few refuted the importance of mechanized, powered means of transportation and tanks. The debate revolved around whether this technology could be integrated into traditional processes or strategies or whether more ...

The reasons behind persisting health disparities across socioeconomic class in America are not fully understood. A 1.2:4.0 mortality rate ratio exists among people in the lowest socioeconomic class and those in the highest socioeconomic class (Cohen, Farley, & Mason, 2003).

English is similar to all the living languages in the world, which is constantly changing amidst the changes taking place within the global environment.

It is not overreaching to state that most parents want the best for their children and wish them to grow up and become successful in this highly competitive world, especially in the work place.

Because parents are so concerned about their children’s future well-being, often they tend to push their children to excel academically. Crocker and Carnevale write, “Pushing teens to be the best is well-intentioned. ...
