CHARACTER

Chararcter is the combination of qualities or features that distinguishes one person, group, or thing from another. Some traits of character are honesty, loyalty, dependability, self-esteem, reliability, trustworthy, and responsibility. On my job and at school, I try to demonstrate character. You should demonstrate character everywhere you go because people can label you from it. If someone lie all the time and are not dependable people can label them as having bad character.
I try to improve my character everyday. If I tell someone I am going to do something for them, I make sure I do it. If I do not do it they can label me as being dishonest or not dependable.

A quote that I like for character is:

“Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”




Respect includes taking someone's feelings, needs, thoughts, ideas, wishes and preferences into consideration. It means taking all of these seriously and giving them worth and value. In fact, giving someone respect seems similar to valuing them and their thoughts, feelings, etc. It also includes acknowledging them, listening to them, being truthful with them, and accepting their individuality.
Respect can be shown through behavior and it can also be felt. We can act in ways which are considered respectful, yet we can also feel respect for someone and feel respected by someone. Because it is possible to act in ways that do not reflect how we really feel, the feeling of respect is more important than the behavior without the feeling. When the feeling is there, the behavior will naturally follow.

In order to gain respect, you have to give respect. Respect has great importance in everyday life. As children we are taught (one hopes) to respect our parents, teachers, and elders, school rules and traffic laws, family and cultural traditions, other people's feelings and rights, our country's flag and leaders, the truth and people's differing opinions. And we come to value respect for such things; when we're older, we may shake our heads  at people who seem not to have learned to respect them. I try to respect others and their feelings rather they are right or wrong. I find out that when you respect people it will carry you along way.

It is amazing how much you can accomplish when it doesn't matter who gets the credit.

 Teamwork is one of the most essential qualities for the success of any organization. It has been seen that in the absence of teamwork, teams fail to perform to the best of their abilities. Teamwork is a set of activities, which are performed by team members to fulfill a common goal, that is decided by the organization. Teamwork is necessary in all walks of life. We can start from home. At home if the members of the house do not work together as a cohesive group, there are many tasks at home, which will never get completed. Similar is the case, when one works for an organization. Teamwork is great in the workplace also. If the members of the team do not perform together, then achieving targets will almost be next to impossible. Teamwork should be looked upon as a bond, which helps in keeping the members of the team together by promoting strength, reliability and support. When I am school, there are some advantages and disadvantages of teamwork. You can get a job done quicker if everyone is particapting. On the other hand, if everyone else is not doing there job then the goal can not be achieved. When I was growing up my teachers always used the saying, "There is no "I" in team. This is so true. When playingball evryone have to work together on getting the ball in the hoop. When in groups, I try hard to put forth my work so my end can fit into the puzzle with the other groups work.

COMMUNICATION

Communication requires a sender, a message and an intended recipient, although the receiver need not be present or aware of the sender's intent to communicate at the time of communication; thus communication can occur across vast distances in time and space. Communication requires that the communicating parties share an area of communicative commonality. The communication process is complete once the receiver has understood the message of the sender. Feedback is critical to effective communication between parties.The two kinds of communication are verbal and nonverbal.

It is very important to have communication skill on a job and in class.On a job, we have to communicate to be on the same page as the other people.  I need to improve my communication skills more. I need to learn to listen before I speak. When I am talking to my husband, I sometimes say things before I even think about it. Your nonverbal communication can out speak your verbal communication. You can be talking to someone but the reaction on your face and your body language can tell a different story.

Productivity




Productivity is a measure of the efficiency of production. Productivity is a ratio of production output to what is required to produce it (inputs). The measure of productivity is defined as a total output per one unit of a total input. Productivity really means to use your time wisely and so not waste time. When I substitute, I have to have all the students work in order. I also have to make sure that I go by the lesson plans that the teacher left out for me. I also have to make sure that I have a neat work area so that I can find things faster.  If you do things in a timely manner, you can meet productivity quicker. This will make the boss proud and bring in more money for the company.

Organization


 Organization is important in the workplace and the classroom.A person should have great organization skills to get the job done. When you are organize you can find things in a timely manner. When you have things put in the right place you want have to worry about looking for it. At school, I have to have my papers organize in my folder to keep track of when things are due. I work in a school system so I have to keep papers in a neatly fashion.
