The client had an L-hemisphere CVA on 8/11/10. After the stroke, the client was admitted for a 5 day acute care hospitalization and then into an inpatient rehab setting for six weeks for one hour every day. Through a speech evaluation, the client was diagnosed with a mild anomic aphasia and mild apraxia of speech. The client 's goals are to improve her mobility, communication, and return home. This session was a re-assessment six months after she was discharged from the inpatient rehab setting.
Over my high school years, especially because of the drill team, I learned to never give up, accept every opportunity available, and that failure is perfectly acceptable. I learned these processes help me grow. Because of my hard work, I made social officer president, one of my proudest achievements despite the many obstacles I faced. Although I did not initially make the team and I never became a dance officer, I achieved my overall goal as an outstanding leader. I am no longer intimidated by failure, I will continue to utilize my perseverance that has pushed me to where I stand today and I trust that it will aid me through my future as well.
John Wooden once said “failure is not fatal but failure to change might be”(John Wooden Quote.) Wooden was addressing the idea that one only fails if they do not change after messing up. I never fully understood that principle until I attempted the FFA Creed Career Development Event. After not giving all that I could during the contest, I experienced the worst defeat of my FFA career. I had always thought that Wooden’s statement was only inspire those who had lost, but through personal failures I have learned otherwise.
He kept me from crying and giving up during the hard
I kept going for the guy next to me performing to the best to his ability. Success was the result of all the hard relentless work done throughout June into August. I acknowledged that my team had a good group of seniors who were high character student-athletes I spent most of childhood with. Ultimately finishing with a record of 3 wins and 7 loses taught me many lessons on becoming a better person and
Have you ever been so close to a goal but you lack of confidence wouldn’t let you fly? Growing up, I have never been the most confident person, which has caused me to fail certain things. The time when I experienced a failure was when I didn’t get accepted into Newark Tech Vocational School. My family moved to from Miami, Florida to Irvington, New Jersey during the summer of 2012 due to financial issues. The move was like a fresh start, which I certainly wasn’t elated about.
I had spent months training for those 20 minutes. I prepared for every possible thing that could have gone sour during those fleeting moments that would determine how my freshman season would end. If the start was too slow I would gradually speed up after mile one. If my hip injury worsened mid-race I would alter my stride to avoid pain. What about if I completely fell apart one mile in?
I have chosen to take any negative experiences as future motivation to succeed. This has helped me to better appreciate not only the joy of winning, but also the hard work and devotion that goes into it. By doing this I am able to make more confident choices, accept the ideas of others, and inspire my peers to see the important opportunities that coincide with "failure" as well. Every day we are affected by actions, both our own and by those of others. It is how a person chooses to react to these actions (whether they are considered to be a success or failure) that reveals and shapes true
My Bethel chose me to represent them in this statewide competition. They trained me on how to walk and how to make friends with other girls. I was so nervous the whole weekend of the competition. I doubted myself a lot. The night of the pageant I wore my best dress and smiled the biggest smile.
How life goes on we experience a lot of things that can either teach us an important lesson or nothing at all. I have learned more than one lesson in my life, but there’s one that I will always keep in mind to help others like it helped me. Thanks to John Tyler High School Drill Team I have self-confidence and courage to do risky things that I never thought I would be doing. Now I believe in myself and I don’t let fear dull my success, I fight for what I want until I get it even if it take a long time, I don’t give up that easy anymore.
I have a story that I would love to share with you all, I doubted myself although I had practiced, during the table service competition in the service portion I mistakenly poured water into the candle holder, when I told my instructor he asked "what in the world made you think that the candle holder was a glass?! " My response was, " I thought it was a fancy glass!" But that did make me hide my face, I pushed through the rest of the competition, with shaking hands, and a confidence level that hit rock bottom. Later I brushed it off and I said to myself, mistakes have to be made to achieve greatness.
Habitat’s organization compromised of three divisions: (1) Habitat Projects Worldwide (HPW), which managed the affiliate system and the overseas projects; (2) Habitat Education Ministries (HEM), which administered all the awareness-building program activities; and (3) Habitat Support Services (HSS), which included support areas such as Development, Finance, Human Resources, and Information Systems (Slavitt & Loveman, 1994). Each division possessed motivation factors such as achievement and recognition leading to satisfaction and motivation (Griffin & Moorhead, 2014). Affiliates raised their own funds, selected families, completed construction, and collected payments. Affiliates revised Habitat’s housing structures according to their local
For the rest of the night I felt euphoric; nothing could drag me down. One extremely intense month of practice and I achieved what I thought was initially impossible. Based on this, I formed a fresh outlook on challenges: I can accomplish anything I set my sights on so long as I work for it with everything I have. However flawed this view may be, it will serve me incredibly well over the next few
Awsam Bouabid There I was out in the cold, in the middle of January, at 6:00 AM. I had put my skis in the bus and was waiting for Mr. Mud to get on the bus and do a roll call. It was the third race of the season, but it would be my first time actually racing. Once, Mr. Mud was done, we left Simsbury High School, and headed to some far off place to ski.
A sense of accomplishment is invaluable to a person. Not only does a sense of accomplishment build confidence and faith in oneself, but it also allows one to reflect on how wonderful the journey to the accomplishment was, and how every little struggle and triumph was worth it. In the middle of summer, where time seems endless and the stress of the previous school year has been shed by students, I never expected to find out that I scored a five on both of the advanced placement exams I took. Nor did I have one-hundred percent confidence the goals we set as section leaders of the marching band would actually be met. Yet to my surprise, I had the good fortune of accomplishing challenging things in both aspects of my life.
