"If you come to a negotiation table saying you have the final truth, that you know nothing but the truth and that is final, you will get nothing."

Answers

Answer:

Negotiations are meant to have leeway; all parties must be willing to give up something to come to an agreement. If you go to negotiate with the mindset that you won't accept anything less, that you wont give up anything to get the other party to agree, then they wont agree and you will get nothing out of it.

Poetry
Mr. Miller liked to jump
From high up in the sky;
He never for a moment thought
That he could ever die.
He trusted in his parachute
But when he pulled the string,
He found his wife had moved the chute
And filled it up with things
That might have been a help to him
In any other place;
But nothing that might keep him now
From landing on his face.
So Mr. Miller closed his eyes,
And said, “Thy will be done”;
And suddenly jumping out of things
Just wasn’t that much fun.
It might have been the end of him.
Had not a hawk flew by
And plucked him with her razor claws
Right out of the blue sky.
She took him to her nest up high
And dropped him in the twigs
And Mr. Miller to this day
Can be found in these digs



Questions:

1. What does Mr. Miller think can’t happen to him?


2. What happens when Mr. Miller pulls the string on his
parachute?


3. Why is jumping out of things suddenly not that much fun?

Does anyone know how to write an essay about the time you were proud?

Answers

Answer:

I'd suggest taking some time to reflect on a moment when you truly felt proud. Think of a memory you love to look back on, or one that fills you with confidence.

Begin with the thesis statement. An Introductory paragraph detailing what's about to come. Spend your time (or the next one or two paragraphs) describing the event and especially how it made you feel.

Usually, the fourth paragraph of an essay is reserved for the rebuttal section. This is where you make a counter-argument contradicting what you have written, but also using it to boost your point, emotions, and story further.

Then, write the conclusion. Take a while to look back on what you have written and briefly describe it (and why it matters to you, and why it fits the theme/prompt, etc.)
