Culminating Blog Reflection.

            I used critical thinking for my capstone project to solve some problems that i experience during my capstone project. i was able to learn how to communicate in a professional way and use proper language when taking to some elders and i also needed more of my creativity side to make my power point that made me work more harder that ever. i realize that planning my schedules and prioritizing the most important things that i need to do and to finish my deadlines on time.
            I gain from doing my capstone project was, i learned how to take blood pressure from some patient. i also gain some confidence while doing this project that made my practice presentation successful. i realize not to procrastinate and pass things on time. i practiced my planing skills and management my time wisely while doing my capstone project.
            I experience a lot of  challenges and obstacles during my capstone project. one of the challenges i experience was getting trust from my patient. because they knew that i am still in training and sometimes they are not sure whether they would believe what i said or not. i learned how to overcome my challenge by making sure to believe on my self first to gain their trust. i realize that if i make sure i knew what im doing they will be convince on what i said. another obstacles was procrastination, i was too busy from school, night school and work that sometimes i forgot to finish my papers on time that makes me procrastinate but i learned that prioritizing my plans makes my schedule organize.

research practice

the fiscal cliff is all about the sharp decline in the budget of the government that was expected to happen in the 2013 because of the increase in taxes and lowering spending that was required by the previous laws that were passed. The out come of the fiscal cliff was clearly shows that most laws that was passed less benefits more people. some of these where laws that help them beneficially. but because of the issues in the fiscal cliff most of these laws expired last December of 2012. some of these las may have help the government to reduce there expenses but those laws that where passed where those laws that help some of our community to survive. most of the laws that were not passed were ones that don't benefit the gov.

i conducted my research by using google and some of the things how you can find a good source. i was also looking the source information and if its a reliable source for my research.
