TOPIC: Factors regarding the building and sustaining of positive relationships
A positive relationship is a relationship where the people involved will encourage one another to grow and better themselves. Positive relationships always improve the lives of people and with this said, it is obvious that to have a positive relationship with someone they must support you and be there for you when you really need them. A positive relationship can be formed with anyone e.g. a friend, your teacher, a boyfriend/ girlfriend and a parent.
Ways to resolve conflict constructively:
Conflict is very normal in all relationships, but knowing how to deal with it is vital to whether you can sustain relationships. Conflict must never be hidden or bottled up, because it will cause bigger problems in any relationship. You can go about resolving conflict constructively by knowing what caused the conflict. It is always beneficial to sit down, before you discuss an issue with someone, and figure out what went wrong and how it went wrong. Make sure you are calm and cool and you could also try to find a few solutions whilst you are considering what went wrong. The second way you can resolve conflict is by making sure when you address the issue with the person you are always be willing to listen to them. In order, to find an appropriate solution for both parties, both sides must be heard. The last way one can resolve conflict is by never getting offensive or emotional when you address a problem with someone. Always stay calm and if you feel yourself getting angry you should try counting to 100. If you do get worked up is could damage the relationship or put the parties in an even worse place than before.

In addition another solution could be to fire and get rid of people in work places or government who are corrupt. This needs to happen in government especially. It will show others who have thought about being corrupt reconsider. Another solution could be to inform people about the effect and consequences of the issue through the media or the internet.

  • Government Corruption

    1150 Words  | 3 Pages

    Corruption is most prevalent where there are other forms of institutional inefficiency, such as political instability, bureaucratic red tape, and weak legislative and judicial systems. This raises the question of whether it can be established that corruption, rather than other factors correlated with it, is the cause of low economic growth. Regression analysis provides some evidence that if one controls for other forms of institutional inefficiency, such as political instability, corruption can still be shown to reduce growth. Nevertheless, it is hard to show conclusively that the cause of the problem is corruption alone, rather than the institutional weaknesses that are closely associated with it. The truth is that probably all of these weaknesses are intrinsically linked, in the sense that they feed upon each other (for example, red tape makes corruption possible, and corrupt bureaucrats may increase the extent of red tape so they can extract additional bribes) and that getting rid of corruption helps a country overcome other institutional weaknesses, just as reducing other institutional weaknesses helps it curb corruption.
