Background
I feel it is important to give some background and self-discloser to my past so that it may give more clarity to how I was coping or managing my life. It may also show why and how these events in my life affected my being and thinking.
I was born in a large town of Istanbul called Eyup in 1968. I was always quite popular with my friends and liked by their parents as a well-behaved child. When I was about eight years of age, my sister - one year younger than me - passed away. It was due to the wrong prescription of medication to her mizzles. We were very close and as an older brother, I was very protective of her. Needleless to say it affected our family deeply and none of us really got over it fully.
During my childhood and into my teens, the country was going through a lot of political transformation which caused a lot of problems among people in Turkey. When I was nine years of age our neighbour's father shot a person in a café and then he shot himself. He was in his seventies and ran a bicycle shop and because

This gives me the freedom to act as I am without trying to find masks to put on in different circumstances. My understanding is that, more open I am about my life the more freedom that I could feel. Of course, there are things that we cannot talk about to others. Some of it open only to our partners (our wife or husband), some only to friends and some only to our work environment BUT some we only keep to ourselves. I am most comfortable in this area and have been trying to grow Open Self. This area also the riskiest. More people knows about me, the more I am exposed to miss-judgment and criticism based on their mindset. I can say that I am more open now and this is due to have worked on personal self-development for many years and felt the importance of being honest both inside and outside when I am presenting myself to the
It was a late Saturday night with a heavy rain,Jacob Dainels, a well know theif thourghout Boston,was robbing a little diomond store on the outskirts of Boston. My mom,the one who as always cared and loved me,was sucureity guard that night at Diamonds Only. By the time she could have called for help she had been bleeding out for five minutes. She died to due a nine millmeter shot into the femer and shoulder ,and that was the night that everything changed. At the time murder I was 17 about to turn 18 on june 27.
All I remember on March 25th, 2011 is that my family received a phone call that sent my sister and I into a state of turmoil and denial. We were informed that both our aunt and uncle were murdered the day before by their neighbor. In the mid 1990s, this neighbor was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. This neighbor lived alone in a home where he possessed 10 firearms. After hearing this news I had mixed feelings of frustration and betrayal.
This is where the question of “Do I like who I am?” comes into play. Self-esteem, more so than the other major components of self, weighs heavily on how one interacts with others. For instance, if an individual is insecure about their uneven teeth because they are viewed as an imperfection, one may be less likely to willingly interact with others in fear of judgment. This lessens the amount of friendships made and overall lessens one’s confidence. On the other hand, if one is secure of who they are, it is evident in the way one communicates and their good feelings associated with life in
The information I’m hoping to be able to disclose is my thoughts, feelings, goals, and failures in life. Procedure/Plan for Reaching the Goal: 1. Take a look at my current relationships and figure which people I can open up to. 2. Figure out what how I’m feeling.
I remain positive and energetic because I always look forward to challenges in life. As ex professional athlete, I always set realistic targets and time scale for myself and others I teach. This method ensures that you concentrate on your targets and remain focused on tasks ahead step by step. I have a different way of training and teaching. I focus on psychology using mind over matter as I believe every person can do any given task.
My mom’s friend, Kate, had an experience with a school shooter while teaching. Kate was teaching a third-grade music class, and as the children walked in a father walked in with one of
Throughout my life I have come from and created a few identities for myself. Perhaps, the most dominant identities that have been apart of my life are being an athlete and being a family orientated man. In this paper I will write about how my identities have shaped my life. First off I believe my biggest identity is being an athlete.
I have had the unique opportunity during my career to have served in very diverse positions and assignments that have not only operational but strategic level importance. These distinctive assignments encompass the breadth and depth of the US Engineer Regiment. These experiences have given me a broad perspective of various US Army capabilities and their employment. Whether it was assignments with the 82nd Airborne Division and the Global Response Force during my Platoon Leader and Company Executive Officer time, or my Company Command time as the Commander of one of the most unique formations in the Army’s arsenal, Multi-Role Bridge Company. I was always able to understand the strategic importance of the assignments and maximize the readiness
I felt sorry for her because she told me that one day, she had witnessed her father yelling at her mother for some money to buy alcohol. At that time, her mother was screaming and crying, as she couldn’t tolerate being hit by him. Then her mother took her daughters and ran away to her grandmother’s house. Till one day, the father showed up at the grandmother’s house. That moment she saw him from the window in order not be recognized by the mother.
Shortly after the doctor said that, her condition got a lot worse from before and she passed away a few months later during the summer. During the wake and the funeral, my Great Uncle was devastated and could not believe that his older sister has died. During this time I tried to remember the time when my family was living with her, but I could not remember besides the fact that she was a very good cook and that in my family, her lasagna and soups were the best thing we have ever
Privacy is key to helping people maintain their sense of individuality. Some people often feel like themselves and can express more of whom they are when they have privacy. I personally believe that a little privacy is good for the soul. We, as human beings, need privacy. Without having a home, you have very little privacy, if any at all, which is why a home is everything.
First, honesty has a beautiful simplicity. I believe that, to be truly successful in our life, we must always be honest and open with our families, friends and societies. I also believe that honesty make the best relationship because it leads to trust and faith. Besides, it is important to
For example, I was at a party and children was there having fun. A group of men that was in a gang had shot fire at the party. The worse part about this situation 10 people were shot and 4 were killed. This is decreasing of our hopes of living.
Self-Disclosure is when a person opens up themselves to another person. There are some people that when it comes to self-disclosure it’s no problem for them to share but there are others that take self-disclosure very seriously. Those who self-disclose easily are probably the ones that love to talk to others. The ones that actually dont like self-disclosing are typically the ones that feel vulnerable when they do self-disclsose. Some people may think that self-Disclosure is one of the most important thing when it comes to developing a relationship.
I have always hated writing about myself, and I always dreaded assignments in school where I had to describe myself. I always wanted to avoid doing these assignments because I did not want to sound narcissistic, or self-absorbed. I dislike people like that now, because I used to be one of those people. It took many lessons learned before I humbled myself; I am still learning to humble myself today with recent experiences I have had. Although I hate to write about myself, I have always liked to reflect on myself.
