This was something that was a little difficult for me to write about just
because I have my beliefs and that is about it. I dont know how to keep
talking about something I believe in and know that it defines me. I honestly
did not see much to it. So I looked up was articles about family values. There
on Americanvalues.org I realized that family is so important and universal.
This is such a neat thing that I had never really thought about. Family is
something that unlike other things is something that is important in all
cultures. We may still have different ways of expressing our love to our
family members, or maybe each family member has a differernt role
depending on their culture but either way we stand up for our family
members and feel that close and intimate connection with them. This brings
me to my next point where when I was young and my family had problems I
would get upset but my mother would tell me not to worry that even the
most royal and best families have problems and only the strongest will come
out strong and together. There was no way of knowing which families are
strong if they are never put up to the test. It is also something that we
learned. We are born feeling love for our mothers and maybe the father and
the people that were close to our mothers when they were pregnant but we
do not know what family is when we are born yet very soon we know and we
feel safe around recognized faces. This is one of the best things about family,
feeling and and comfortable around our family members even if we do not
mean to. For my final remarks on family, it is an incredible bond that we form
and let grow like a plant if properly nourished. Family is also something that

it was still very respectful and I know that the outcome of that was super
impactful to the company and to our health and emotional wellness. The
setting is calmer and it just becomes easier to do our jobs and everyone is in
a lot better mood. I also was able to read about leaders and how good
leaders take respect with such value as well. I do not know if maybe I also
take it with such high importance because of my culture but I find this to be
one of my best qualities.
My third value making my life philosophy, is would be work. As if you
havent already noticed, work to me in general is very important to me. I
have always taken my jobs very seriously and I really do not think that is a
bad thing. I am pretty proud that I always get promoted and I am really
young. I am only twenty and I have one of the most important projects in my
international company. My father always engraved to us that our job was
important and that has stuck to me. I tend to impress people with my work
ethic. For example, my engineer did not like the idea of me being the lead for
the new line because of my age but he had never met me before, I dont
really blame him I do see that is can be understandable because it is such a
big and important project but little by little he did begin to trust me and now
he goes to me for any questions or concerns. As I read through the seven
elements of good work ethic, I realized that it had all the elements that I find
important and not to be hypocritical but I do feel like I poses these same
qualities. These qualities include professionalism, respectfulness,
