Looking at society through a biased scope can make many see minorities as a lesser form of life. Being born into a minority in today's world has shaped me very differently in comparison to the majority. Ever since I was a child I felt as if I was being pressured into things to make my family proud. You can see this characteristic in almost all families but in a minority family, it possesses great strength. A sense of independence existed as I was a very young child. I was playful and mischievous, yet kind to my siblings. When I grew old enough to understand the intentions my parents had for my future I became subservient and loyal to my parents and at the same time, I became shy. When I reached my young adolescent stage, I became rebellious and often thought independently. Fortunately, I stayed out of trouble most of the time. With all of the past memories added up, I enter my second year in college. I have learned most of my communication skills semesters prior to today and my self-esteem and personality have developed over time throughout my life. I am quite aware of all these essential elements to one's sociological behavior and try my best to practice each in healthy ways. I love my fami
An important concept I've learned from this course was the idea that believing in yourself can succeed in a particular task or activity. I've always had self-efficacy (Hanna 37), it's just that I never knew of it through that term. People would call me optimistic. In reality they were just being pessimistic. I'm glad that I wouldn't let people make me believe that I'm not able to do things in my life. Confidence plays a big role in this idea. At times, my confidence would be very low through my realistic outlook on life. Then suddenly, my optimistic mind would kick in and I would suddenly know that things would happen in my favor. Many can call it hope...I just call it positive out looking on life. I try my best to see the brighter side of things and try to be confident with myself. ly, have a girlfriend and think positively of myself. Most of those outlooks on my self have always been there, but have recently improved due to the teachings of Sharon L. Hanna in the book, Person to Person and through the lectures of professor Oneal. The teachings, so far, have helped me identify healthy relationships with others, find my true happiness and helped realize my true potential in my future career. I am certain that this class will help me in the long run and strengthen my positive lifestyle. Communication in my family is mediocre. My family possesses all characteristics of different communication styles. My father would be the placater. My mother would be the congruent communicator. My sister would be the blamer. My brother was always irrelevant and I'm super reasonable at times. We seem to have a very nuclear family. We really need each other even at times when we can't stand each other. After I came of age, I really stopped talking and touching my parents. I even stopped kissing them goodnight completely at a young age. I just felt it being awkward. Today, I talk them in the form of "chit chat" yet I can still get across and talk about more important issues like school and politics. My sister went away for school many years ago. I relate to my sister very well. Our astrological signs match and we talk about many issues. She comes to me to talk about boys and I do the same to her about girls. She is my oldest sibling and I consider her the wise one. I rela
