The reason that Ron Finley makes the statement is because he has been involved in improving his community, working through his nonprofit foundations.

Finley's statement and community work exemplify the <em>seven principles in Maulana Karenga's "Nguzo Saba"</em> in the following ways:

  • For a start, the principles of Nguzo Saba (Swahili) enumerate the values of African culture.  These principles were enunciated by Professor Maulana Karenga as part of her contribution to the building and reinforcement of community culture among African-Americans.

  • <u>Unity: </u>The first principle of Nguzo Saba shows that in unity a community survives.  Ownership of property is not to be regarded as exclusive to the individual owner's use, just as Finley was able to freely donate his garden for education.

  • <u>Self-determination: </u> Finley recognizes that to change the community, determination is required.

  • <u>Collective Work: </u> Finley believes that the work of changing the community does not belong to one person.  It is a collective responsibility.

  • <u>Cooperative economics:</u> Finley, like Maulana, believes that profitability should be shared in the community.

  • <u>Purpose:</u> Finley believes in total transformation, of the individual and the community.  That was why he allowed his garden to become a tool for transformation.  Everybody must work for a purpose.

  • <u>Creativity:</u>  To make change happen, we should think outside the box by changing the composition of the soil.

  • <u>Faith:</u>  Nothing can be achieved without faith.  Ron Finley agrees with the Professor.

Thus, the garden, our society, our community needs transformation.  This must be done with collective efforts.

castortr0y [4]

According to the theorist emphasizing the learning process in the explanation of personality, the difference between a successful person and an unsuccessful person is found in patterns of reward and punishment.

Personality refers to individual differences in characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. The study of personality focuses on two broad areas: One is understanding individual differences in particular personality characteristics, such as sociability or irritability. A number of approaches and theories have been developed to understand and explain behavioral differences among individuals, and behavioral consistencies. Personality sits at the center of how we perceive and interact with the world. It's such a complex beast that no one theory has explained about it in detail.
