MCB 2289 Discussion What Goes Around Comes Around
Have you heard of the so called “5-second rule”
for when food falls to the floor? (NOT true by the way) Have you seen the signs
in restrooms indicating that all employees must wash their hands before
returning to work? Bacteria are everywhere and the concept of cleanliness
should apply to anyone who comes in contact with foreign materials, fecal
matter or urine, or any potentially contaminated materials.
For your initial post, discuss which two rooms in your home
or work place that you believe are the most contaminated. Explain why you chose
these two rooms and list at least two bacteria that are the common types found
in those rooms.
For your reply post, respond to at least one of your peers
about different methods that can be used to decontaminate these rooms to reduce
or eliminate microorganisms.
what goes around comes around. proverb One’s actions or behavior will eventually have consequences for one, even if indirectly. The phrase typically refers to one being a victim of the same negative circumstances that they have inflicted on others. Russ picked on me back in high school, and now he has his own bully.
The moment you have an instinct to act on a goal you must count down 5-4-3-2-1 and physically move or your brain will stop you.
- Using the Rule is simple. Whenever you feel an instinct fire up to act on a goal or a commitment, or the moment you feel that yourself hesitate on doing something and you know you should do, use the Rule.
- Start by counting backward to yourself: 5-4-3-2-1. The counting will help you focus on the goal or commitment and distract you from the worries, thoughts, and fears in your mind. As soon as you reach “1,” move. That’s it.
- The Rule will work every time you use it. But you have to use it. It is a tool. If you stop using it, fear and uncertainty will creep back in and take control of your decisions. If that happens, just start using the Rule again.
- Physical movement is the most important part of my Rule, too, because when you move your physiology changes and your mind follows.
The Rule is a simple, research-backed metacognition tool that creates immediate and lasting behavior change.
Metacognition, by the way, is just a fancy word for any technique that allows you to beat your brain in order to accomplish your greater goals.
As you use the Rule over time, you’ll experience a shift inside yourself that is much deeper, a transformation that impacts confidence and inner strength.
You will come face to face with the excuses, habits, feelings, insecurities, and fears that have haunted you for years.
