Goals

My leadership role I set a goal to become an example to the child I help.

In lecture we learned about obtaining more then we are capable of, this is the main thing i want to teach to the kid I help. If sees how much he can achieve even with his disability, his life will become so much easier. and that would make me feel as though accomplished my goal and was able to be a good example to him and help him for the better.  

Team Work!

This week we got the chance to work together with members of the class we were not familiar with. It was a great opportunity to not only use team work but to meet other people.


My role was like that of everyone else in the group; to come up with ideas, put the skit together and then preform it. Our group was very good at listening to all the ideas presented and then incorporating them into a skit. From my group i learned that there is no bad idea and all every ones voice should be heard and considered when making decisions.  

Trial

This week in lab we had the most awesome time! We did a moot court! I got to be a Supreme Court judge.

In a court it is imperative that everyone is keeps their integrity, and also sticks to their ethical values. With out these two contributors the judicial system would be a flop. Courts to their best ability try to keep these two traits by having witnesses take on oath on the bible. Attorney’s jobs are to argue the interests on those they are hired by. This can cause personal conflict and they may have to take the side of the guilty which may not be the proper thing to do but it is their job. The witnesses I saw stuck to their guns and did not falter due to peer pressure. The final decision was correct, Jack was not obeying the honor code they had been set by the school, the only problem for me personally was the issue with only males having to abide by the hair length, and all the other rules were for guys and girls except for that one.

In my leadership role there are many kids and not so many toys... conflicts rise constantly between kids who are not willing to share. All the kids are watched by a college student so when conflicts arise if my kid is the one taking the wrong action I tell him he is misbehaving and that taking toys is not honest. Thru this action I hope that he can learn honesty and develop ethical values.

Service

This week we discussed service and also got the chance to preform a service project.

As we discussed service i came to realize that leadership truly is all about service, its about being in a put in position where you can better serve your fellow man. i love the example Jesus gave at the last supper when he washed the feet of his apostles. Here was the son of God washing the feet of his followers. His example is so amazing to me. In my leadership role I am helping the little children develop and grow. I hope that by serving them, by giving of my time they will truly see the joy one can have from service. I know service always leaves me smiling.
This week we went to Y serve and i made a gratitude book, this book will be given to a student and they will be able to write down what they are truly grateful for and then reflect on it when ever they are feeling depressed or even just want to smile. When we were making the books i could not help but think about all the wonderful service that i have received in my life and it made me want to give back. Service is the way to become like Christ and it is the the best way to become Christ like.
