First, I need to develop my communication skill that I should know how to talk with strangers and how to express my feelings to others. Second, I need to develop my relationships in the U.S. Because being in the U.S is a quite different environment, I don’t have enough friends that will help me get more information about jobs, so next few years I need to make more friends and maintain relationship with them. Third, I need to adapt to American culture and practice English. Because English is my second language, there is still a little difficult to communicate with others in English. So, I need to be assertive enough and try to speak up in the

    Human services is a broad field that includes many types of agencies and organizations that deal with many aspects of human needs; ethics and ethical management are important in the success of providing services for every provider. These items guide services including elder care, child abuse, unemployment, social security, disability, welfare, food stamp benefits, domestic abuse, mental health treatment, and many more. Regardless of the subdivision within the field of human services, ethics and ethical management will be tested. While dealing with individuals recovering from the use and abuse of substances including alcohol and other drugs, ethics and ethical leaderships are especially important. In the case of working with clients who have previously been addicted to substances, it will be likely that morals and values have not guided many of their decisions, but that is not to say that they do not have any. Almost everyone is guided by some set of principles; some may just not understand how to apply them to certain areas of their lives. Drug addicts and alcoholics will need to learn that their behavior is no longer only affecting them but that it is affecting many others around them including friends, family members and even coworkers. Being an ethical manager and assisting a client in this area will contribute to the success of the organization.…

    Rodolfo Costa once said; “Cultivate an optimistic mind, use your imagination, always consider alternatives, and dare to believe that you can make possible what others think is impossible” (Goodreads). Remaining positive has always held an important role in my life. I strive to find positives in every negative situation, and remember that I can always learn something from it. Sometimes changing the way you view a situation can make all the difference. Even through times where I have had every reason to give up, I have chosen to keep a positive attitude. I have found that when I decide to do this, it makes me significantly happier, and I take much more away from the situation.…

    To be your best self takes a lot of discipline and confidence. The key factors of being your best self to me include being healthy, ambitious, involved, responsible, and optimistic. Moving to the United States with my family over two decades ago, I gained a newfound respect for my parents to leave behind all known and understanding of life to having to learn a new language, profession, networks, providing a new comfortable home while not knowing the end results just so my brother and I will have the life my parents envisioned for us. Words of faith are the only thing that keeps me steadily walking along my path to success. Success is my only option failure is not. I have condemned myself to be a success.…

    Move to U.S helped me to be more confident with myself. In the beginning I was shy to talk to people because I don't know the language. My first year in was hard I can't understand what the teachers said. By this my grades were low in the beginning. But, after of few months I began to understand the language with some struggle to communicate with the people. The things that I confronted become more to handle it. Then, my grades improve and I became more social because I made friends.…

    I always do my best to keep a good attitude and enjoy gaining new knowledge by reading or day-to-day work experiences. Actually, I cannot speak English as well as native speakers, but I do my best to make myself stand out from others in a positive way. I always ask help from teachers that I do not understand, and do some review after classes to try hard to keep up my courses. In addition to acquiring new knowledge and new skills, I also enjoy sharing acquired knowledge with my new peers. I like to offer advice when it's needed by my new peers.…
