    Both 1984 and The Handmaid’s Tale are dystopian novels, however, these books are a lot more complex than mere portrayals of dystopia, it can be argued that they are explorations of dystopia rather than mere portrayals. In order to explore dystopia, many themes must be considered, such as; feminism, love and repression. Nonetheless, it is apparent that human characteristics are the driving point of the two novels, predominantly, the depiction of human resilience. In an imperfect world, it is important to have certain qualities which, if plentiful, it can mean success, whereas if it lacks, it can mean failure, this characteristic is resilience. The protagonists in each novel, Winston in 1984 and Offred in The Handmaid’s Tale face situations which leave them both in disarray, and both even consider suicide. The authors tentatively highlight human resilience, its limits and most importantly its strengths into the two novels.

    Scott Hightower’s poem “Father” could be very confusing to interpret. Throughout almost the entirety of the poem the speaker tries to define who his father is by comparing him to various things. As the poem begins the reader is provided with the information that the father “was” all of these things this things that he is being compared to. The constant use of the word “was” gets the reader to think ‘how come the speaker’s father is no longer comparable to these things?’ After the speaker reveals that his father is no longer around, he describes how his father impacted him. Details about the father as well as descriptions of the impacts the father has distraught on the speaker are all presented in metaphors. The repetitive pattern concerning the speaker’s father and the constant use of metaphors gives the reader a sense that the speaker possesses an obsessive trait. As the reader tries to interpret the seemingly endless amount of metaphors, sets of connotative image banks begin to develop in the reader’s mind. Major concepts that are expressed throughout the poem are ideas about what the speaker’s father was like, what he meant to the speaker, and how he influenced the speaker.

Osterwalder invented the BMC because he believed that a company’s first business plan always failed the minute it reached the customers, leaving the owners discouraged and deflated and feeling that they had wasted time, energy and money; so he wanted to create a more flexible business plan that owners can edit and make the changes needed to reach the customers needs "One Tool Startups Need to Brainstorm, Test and Win | First Round Review," n.d.).

    Since I was a young boy, my father has often told me business stories at dinner time. As a result, I gradually grew a keen interest in this field and wanted to realize my dream of being a business man one day. In my first year in high school, I decided to start my first business, and it did not end very well. My home is near the decoration and fashion accessories selling area in Hanoi. Realizing this geographic advantage as a potential business opportunity, I opened a small and simple network with two of my friends. We received requests from other students at my school, bought the thing they ordered, and then delivered it to them. However, things were not as easy as we expected. There were not so many demands, and we hardly made any profit. Eventually, we had to close the business after a few months due to low profits and study pressure. However, not only did this failure not weaken my interest in business, but it also taught me a precious lesson: if I want to make profits, I have to learn the needs of the customers carefully to offer them the best products that cater to their demands. Ever since then, I have been eager to obtain both profound knowledge and practical experience in business.

  • Starting a Small Business

    2009 Words  | 5 Pages

    The first step in any business is to think of or create a business idea. Without an idea, one cannot launch their business off the ground. A right direction is needed to create a business with a unique idea. However, other options include franchising or buying an existing business (1). Franchising allows an individual to run stores such as Burger King or McDonalds under the corporate name. It involves taking training classes and a heap of money in order to start a franchise. A Franchisee will have to buy products and services from the corporate entity they are franchising from, which is often required. Buying a franchise is like taking a piece of the pie from the company that is franchising and sharing that pie with everybody else. In addition having a franchise allows one to communicate and in essence become a big part of an added business opportunity (4). Franchising is far from easy to start and maintain for that matter. Starting a franchise involves a l...
