Kristen’s Garden: Weekly Blog Prompt

The thing that inspired Kristen to take action was the experience with her brother.

If she had been discouraged, she may have not accomplished making her program spread throughout the country.

The leadership qualities that I think she showed: confidence and determination

A time in my life where there was a problem and I took action to solve it: The time in Washington when my father sat down in his computer chair, leaned back to far, and fell over. I was seven years old at the time, so I went to my mother outside and told her what happened. She then came inside the house and helped my dad off the floor. My father was a little disabled at the time, so that is why I needed my mother’s help.

Current Event 2: Demand Harvest Delays Support Soybeans

This article talks about some problems with the production of not only soybeans, but also about corn, wheat, etc. It also talks about how the percentage on how plants are doing this year compared to last year.  I cannot find anyone who is for it or against it.

Some potential outcomes or consequences, for the future, would be the prices for corn and soybeans would probably increase, but it seems that wheat would decrease. Why the corn and Soybeans would increase is because the soybeans were higher on technical and commercial buying. The corn would increase because it was modestly higher on technical buying and spillover from beans. The wheat would decrease due to it being lower on profit taking and technical selling. In my opinion, this increase and decrease in food will probably affect some people on a global scale.

Above Average

I would say that one of my traits would be being kind. Another one would be that I like to communicate with others, and the third one would be being patient.

The way I can share my kindness trait, would be to be helpful to others. Like to open a door when somebody has their hands full of items, and to help someone with a specific job that takes more than one person to do. Another way to show my kindness, is to maybe compliment people on how they look (Nice compliments that is).

The way I can share my communication trait, or strength, would be to talk to someone. Maybe talk to someone about something they are concerned with, or even sharing information such as: how your day is going, anything exciting happen yesterday, etc.). I could also use communication when working with a team.

My patients can help people by me calming down during normal or emergency situations. It can also help people by showing that I am in no hurry. Which will help them by not rushing things.

Current Event: Wheat up, watching world weather

The issue, with what I found, is that rain in Ukraine and Russia continues to delay planting and there are also concerns about damage in Argentina from a recent freeze.  I can not find anyone who is for it or against it.

Some of the potential outcomes or consequences right now, would be the delayed planting and the damage concerns in Argentina. Some future outcomes, in my opinion, is that it will probably get worse in the future, but that depends on what the weather is like. Also, due to the delay and damage that was mentioned, this could affect the pricing and production of wheat for the global economy.  But for now, they should find a way to prevent anymore damage from happening right now.
