Interviews...

Tips To Success  Making a good first impression is always crucial when you want to impress somebody. For interviews, you always want to not only be prepared, but you also want to show how that you really care about getting the job, so you have to be presentable. How we dress: How we dress is really important, because we don't want to show up to an interview in regular clothes, or even worse in dirty clothes. This shows that do didn't care enough to go out and buy some professional looking clothes much less even have time to wash that stain out. Posture: Posture is also really important, because is shoes how much you are interested. If you have good posture, is shoes that you are interested in what the interviewer has to say, ans it shoes that you are lazy.

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of the little minds. I don't even know what is means, but I saw it on the board and it sounded cool. :0

on self- reliance part five

last installment culture devalues individualism Emerson recommends being a risk taker an don't be afraid to try new things it will change ones self regard "B ut t he rage of travelling is a symptom of a deeper unsoundness affecting the whole intellectual action"   "All men plume themselves on the improvement of society, and no man improves. Society never advances. It recedes as fast on one side as it gains on the other. It undergoes continual changes; it is barbarous, it is civilized, it is christianized, it is rich, it is scientific; but this change is not amelioration. For every thing that is given, something is taken" " Society acquires new arts, and loses old instincts."  "Society is a wave. The wave moves onward, but the water of which it is composed does not. The same particle does not rise from the valley to the ridge. Its unity is only phenomenal. The persons who make up a nation to-day, next year die, and their experienc...

very messy notes* consistency is a virtue for emerson that's not exactly true when we learn a new idea we actually make a physical change in our minds the space of our brain changes for emerson when we learn new things,  if we have  a better idea we should get it.   a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds he imagines writing his works and imagines nobody is going that the people were the center of the earth socrates were not understood so he was put to death just as jesus so what if people don't understand you! you might decide to be different one day but you're still apart of something big Men imagine that they communicate their virtue or vice only by overt actions, and do not see that virtue or vice emit a breath every moment. Honor is venerable to us because it is no ephemeris. It is always ancient virtue. We worship it to-day because it is not of to-day. We love it and pay it homage, because it is not a trap for our love and homage, ...

today's argument

Today in class I started an argument.  I wanted to be persuasive so I used logos.  The topic of the argument was discrimination against Arabs, which are commonly referred as "muslims" \ due to terrorist events that are current and also in the past.  The reason I chose logos was because there are facts and it is logic that Arabs were involved in the 9/11 event that occurred. My classmates argued that the attacks and discrimination is in the past and that Arabs don't really have to face the problem anymore, so I argued that is is still a very big problem for them. Firstly no matter what, there is always going to be something that people don't like, even if it has nothing to do with race, people are still very rude and immature. With Arabs having a not so great reputation, it is inevitable that there won't be any discrimination. This problem is still very prominent these days. Arabs get discriminated by a lot a people even if the people making these remarks don't...

on self- reliance part three

He's not defending being a jerk he's just saying how to be true to yourself and in not be considered evil.  everything else about him is tribunal and doesn't change  malice- evil intentions vanity- excessive pride in or admiration of one's own appearance or achievements philanthropy -the desire to promote the welfare of others, expressed especially by the generous donation of money to good causes. he writes this during the civil war while slavery still exists don't act like your good if you're not actually good  when something is good let's call it that because it matters   the last piece in his essay says that he's not against charity, he is to do it if your being true to yourself. it's easier to go to be true to yourself if you are a jerk all week and then go to church and pretend that your good and innocent and the best, emerson is calling that out as annoying we more focus on the negative news than the positive people aren't a...

first impression: on self-reliance

our self reliance by emerson central *Messy NoTes* "Ne te quaesiveris extra" Genius! Emerson first starts off with  "Ne te quaesiveris extra." Which gets the reader's attention. The reader is most likely to understand it the more they have to work for it. This gives off the tone as the author if very invested in his works and takes the time to do all this extra research.  known and well respected  "Our acts our angels are, or good or ill" Emerson wrote this for all the people who: when someone says something original it wakes something up in us  it's the belief in you that is worth  celebrating out loud  it's the belief that is genius not the thought the only captain of your learning ship is you  --this is emerson's thesis when we have an idea and we don't have the guts to say it out loud and someone else says it outloud and take all the credit if we are successful in being someone else we just died our own body...
