http://www.amblesideschools.com/sites/default/files/Five%20Reasons%20to%20Stop%20Saying%20%20Good%20Job!.pdf

Growing up I felt my father was a strict disciplinarian and didn't give me as much praise as I felt I deserved. Looking back I see more that my grew more as a person when I had to have that reinforcement from myself. This article in the first part shows how you're kinda saying "I  like you the way you are" which sounds dramatic at first but continued repentance of this could infer that. When saying "good job" you're telling your child how they should feel. Another main aspect I took from this article is the drive you lose when you think you're better at the activity than anyone else. For example growing up I was one of the top tennis players in the state and it got to my head. I trained less and didn't focus as hard that by the time I became a teenager I was in the middle of the pack again. This article also showed how me the benefits of not coddling your kids. 

2. Why do so many Managers Avoid Giving Praise

A job is a pattern and you learn the pattern quickly. The more you do the routine the less interesting and less drive you have for that job. Having a boss that's loose and fun while it may be great the max amount of work may not be done. Being nervous or anxious because of your boss inspires/forces you to do the max you can do. Even if these managers are nice people they must be strong. Judging by the data in the article having a balance between negative and positive feedback heeds the most praise and work by their workers, so the key is finding that balance. Is being negative in ways gonna make your workers not do as well in spite of the manager?

Introduction to Joshua the Biology major

My name is Joshua Cohlmia and I was born and raised in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Being raised here made it an easy choice to continue my education at the University of Oklahoma. My major is Biology/Pre-Dental. The most interesting part of my major is that I've taken lots of difficult science classes but have never once learned about teeth. It's weird taking all these classes that don't apply directly yo my job in the future. The most interesting class I took last semester was molecular biology. Having a pandemic while taking these science classes has been awesome (for class not in everyday life) because a lot of teachers have been using Covid-19 as an example and I've gotten to learn so much about it. Last semester I finally reached my goal of achieving a 4.0 which I had never done before. My favorite movie is Die Hard because it ties my two favorite things together, Christmas and action. My favorite book is the Harry Potter series because it was the first series of book

Next to them was a beautiful lake with a very cunning crane. The crane loves to eat fish and saw an opportunity to take advantage of the fish struggling in their pond. The Crane flew over to the fish and enticed the fish by telling them about this beautiful lake next to them with a plentiful amount of water. Soon, all the fish in the lake were gathered around the Crane while he went on and on about the lake he lives in with lots of water. The fish were all thrilled to hear this but also very suspicious of the crane because they knew that cranes feast on fish. They asked many questions but the crane was quite convincing. The fish gathered together to decide and wound up deciding to give the Crane a cha
