This week’s focus is about achievement! To achieve the ultimate goal, a strategic plan is to be put in place to ensure the proper steps are being taken. Along the way, it is important to celebrate and reward oneself when certain tasks or levels are achieved to aid in continued motivation. This is especially needed when the steps may take longer or are more challenging. Michael Jordan once said, “Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.” In addition, John F. Kennedy once said, “There are risks and costs to action. But they are far less than the long range risks of comfortable inaction.” For the assignment this week: 1-Define an important and substantial goal you have placed before yourself, whether personally or professionally. 2-After you define your goal, begin to include the below steps of the plan you have or will put in motion Tasks (what you need to do to achieve the goal) Success Criteria (how you will identify your success) Time Frame (by when you need to complete each above task) Resources (what or who can help you complete tasks) 3- Include the rewards (tangible and/or intangible) that you will receive as you achieve the mini successes along the way. 4-Discuss how developing your Emotional Intelligence will help you become more highly motivated?

Assignment:undefinedComplete ALL of the bullet points below:undefined Health care planners could be more effective and efficient if they used the concept of the natural history of disease and the levels of prevention to design services that intervene at the weakest link in the chain of progression of specific diseases. Instead, most focus on high-technology solutions to preventable problems. Assess the characteristics of the medical care culture that encourage the latter approach. Hospitals and other health care institutions, whether voluntary or for-profit, need to be financially solvent to survive growing market pressures. Describe how this “bottom line” focus has changed the nature of the US health care system. The insurance industry plays a huge role in the American health care system and absorbs a significant portion of the health care dollar. A single-payer system, whether it is a private company or the US government, would eliminate the complex insurance paperwork burden and free substantial funds that could be diverted to support care for the under-served. Why do you believe that so much resistance to a concept used in every other developed country has continued in the U.S.? undefinedPlease submit one APA formatted paper between 1000 – 1500 words, not including the title and reference page. The assignment should have a minimum of two (2) scholarly sources, in addition to the textbook.
