Assignment Takeaway

ATA 5: 

From this assignment I’ve discovered how to accomplish more kind acts throughout my everyday life. Being able to share positivity to others and be a helping hand truly allowed me to see how doing kind things has a great effect on how it makes me and others feel as a result. Sharing and doing acts of kindness is pertinent to me in light of the fact that I am an individual who loves to give and the feeling of doing kind acts brings light into my life. With that being said, after experiencing a situation in the past at school where I’d seen and spoke with an individual whom had personal issues at home and the relation to her being bullied in school for not having a variety of clothing options to wear, It was an eye opener to me. I had proceeded to give clothing items and shoes that I no longer needed or wore considering we were the same size and ever since that day I think she made a complete impact on my life and by the smile on her face after my gesture, I think I made an impact on hers too . This task additionally assisted me with venturing outside my usual range of familiarity and changing some lives in the process. After observing some situations I’ve seen in my personal life, I use to believe that on the off chance that you did beneficial things for others that they would attempt to exploit you or not be thankful. However, with this task that wasn’t the outcome at all.

Subsequent to perusing the brief for this task, I was intrigued. We were approached to take a love style questionnaire in which we share our outcomes and response to those outcomes. It was quite interesting to take the questionnaire and nothing I expected. The measure of adoration in my life that I have and to impart that affection to everyone was interesting to discover more in depth. This task was also kind of a stretch to me. I’m not used to breaking down my love or expressing in general so, considering everything that I haven’t considered previously with love styles widened my thoughts and feelings in a sense. This task moved me to take a gander at the manner by which I express my love. In addition to the fact that I learned about the styles of love that I identify with the most, I additionally figured out how to consider my own relationships with those I love.

All in all, I was shocked by the results of my love style questionnaire and was captivated to the point where I began investigating the love styles that I scored high in further. I likewise thought that it was amusing to speak on the outcomes with a family member and friend to hear their thoughts on my outcomes and how they identify with our relationship. This task has certainly been a subject of discussion as of today and it encourages me to get familiar with the way that I show love.

Takeaway 3 will without a doubt be one of the most powerful to me due to the video content that we had watched. It reveals insight into prejudice which I hope has left many individuals to be mindful. There are a countless number of individuals that feel contrarily about an individual essentially because the shade of their skin. Within the media we hear the “n word” being tossed around as it was in the video we watched carelessly. This is particularly pertinent to me since I am a woman of color myself and have had encounters where this type of situation has occurred. By no means is it alright to attempt to debase or deprecate an individual due to race, yet the disdain continues to occur in our society. From this exercise, I discovered that obliviousness comes in many ways. I likewise discovered that the media bringing mindfulness isn’t generally something awful but an approach to allow others to learn. I trust that the individual who was introducing the scorn filled rant had the option to then see the video of himself and feel disgrace, as he ought to for such words and actions.

ATA 1: Heuristics

Given the two options above, what would you choose? The immediate decision for me would be the 80% fat free yogurt considering the fact that while taking a look in comparison, it seems to be the healthier option. Taking the time to analyze my options, the 20% fat may have effected my ” diet” , therefore my choice was made at ease to choose the second option.

Heuristics allow us to manage measures of data that go past our own social social cognition limit. These cycles add to the motivation behind why a dominant part of our social idea is happening naturally. Pretty much, heuristics are viewed as a psychological easy route that one may utilize to allow them to address issues and make their own decisions in a brisk and proficient way. This assignment was applicable in light of the fact that for every heuristic, I am able to think about a circumstance in my life that has correlation.   I didn’t know that this sort of point of view is viewed as a “alternate way,” since it is utilized so frequently. In the wake of learning this, I have reexamined how I consider myself and others.
