Take a minute to think about what 4% of 7 billion is, that would be 280 million. Now imagine being one of those 280 million. I am one one of those 280 million. I just recently took a personality test that said I am a Mediator. A mediator is someone who is said to try, do, and look for the best way of going about situations. According to the personality test I am, open-minded, hard-working and at risk of feeling misunderstood. One trait that describes my personality is open-minded; that being said it is stated that “A live-and-let-live attitude comes naturally to Mediators.”(“INFP Personality”). This statement is very true for me, for example, at school, things tend to switch a lot so I always keep an open-mind. Last year, when I switched to …show more content…
To describe how hard-working mediators can be it is said that “ While others focusing on the challenges of the moment may give up when the going gets tough, Mediators (especially Assertive ones) have the benefit of their far-reaching vision to help them through.”(“INFP Personality”). I relate to this quote very much because I always try my best even when i'm struggling and I never give up. When in school I work hard to make sure I get my work done and do my homework even if that means I have to stay up later to finish rather than going to bed early. A few days ago I got home really late and instead of going to bed I stayed up and finish my homework. While I am at home I will take up as much time I need to make sure I get what I need to do done and done properly instead of doing other things. A few weeks ago I had to clean my room but my friend wanted me to stay the night at her house before I went to her house I went into my room and stayed in there until it was clean. If my friends ask me for help I am always there to help them and I won’t stop working until everything is taken care of. Last year, my friend needed some help making some posters so I stayed the night at her house and we stayed up finishing the posters so that way they would be done. These examples go to show that i’m dedicated, hard-working and willing to do what it takes to …show more content…
There are very few people who would be considered mediators which is why it is stated that “Comprising just 4% of the population, the risk of feeling misunderstood is unfortunately high for the Mediator personality type”. (“INFP Personality”). I would very much agree with this quote considering that it does happen to me a lot. When at school, I'm seen as antisocial because I don’t have many people I talk to but in reality I prefer to talk to people Im friends with. Last year, I had a person ask me why I am antisocial and I told them its not that i’m antisocial I just find it easier to talk to people I am friends with. At home I am seen as withdrawn because I rarely go out. In reality, I am a very busy person and my friends are too so I don’t hang out with them much. A few weeks ago, I was talking to my sister about being bored and she said that I needed to get out more and actually hang out with my friends. My friends see me as being unsociable because I don’t go to big social events. I actually I like going to them I just find it difficult to talk to someone when there are a lot of other people listening. A few months ago my friends were talking about going to homecoming and I hadn’t planned on going. My one friend asked me why I avoid people and don’t like going to social events. I told my friend that it wasn’t that I don’t like people or going to social events it is the fact that I find it hard to talk to a

Mediation is typically a neutral third party that is brought in to help the parties resolve their dispute. The goal of mediation is to clear up misunderstandings, determine concerns, find areas of agreement, and incorporate those areas into solutions. Although a mediator has no decision-making power, they can often help cases resolve more peacefully. The legal system often does this because it helps find solutions faster without there being a lot of tension between the Canadian legal system and society. Overall this allows for a better relationship and allows for the legal system to address the needs of society in a just

But even when I was younger, I began to recognize that not everyone is wired the same way. I first began to see this in a childhood friend, [who was the polar opposite (rephrase later)]. “Why don’t you want to make more friends and play with everyone else?” “I just really don’t want to because I don’t like being around people”. This statement shocked me, and I realized there were people who were not nearly as social as I was, I became curious.
I work well with others, and I am a responsible person. If I am given a task, then I will get it done how and when you want it done. I am also the kind of person that you can expect to have things done on time, and you can trust that I will have it done. I am also a very hard worker, and I like getting tasks done in a timely manner while still completing it to the best of my
Mediators provide additional information about how and why two variables are closely associated. It is important to emphasize, that the association may be either positive or negative. On the other hand, moderators are quantitative (e.g., sex, age, race) or qualitative variables (running endurance, health level, etc.) that affect the direction and strength of the relationship between the IV and DP. In other words, moderators explain the reasons that might cause a weak or vague association between the IV and the DP that were expected to have a strong correlation, (Baron & Kenny, 1986; Bennett, 2000).
The first (and probably most obvious) reason is that I’m a quiet introvert that almost never socializes with others. I would rather hide in my room than hang out with people,
I’m a hard-working and motivated person, because I believe that with enough practice anyone can be good at anything. As someone who is born in a collective culture, I’m harmonious and I actively seek to promote harmony and peace in groups and individuals. Because of my harmonious nature, I try to be friendly and kind to people, especially to those that feel left out. Therefore, I’m able to get along well with people while working in groups. In addition, I’m self-critical, therefore, I’m good at knowing my weaknesses and what I’m lacking.

I am extremely shy and try not to talk to people I do not know, but if I become comfortable around someone then I will talk a lot more. I believe that true friends are one of the most important things to have in life. As a result, I would rather have a small group of well known friends as opposed to a large group of somewhat known friends. When speaking, I feel that the smaller the group I am trying to talk to, the harder it is. For example, talking to new people at school causes me to feel stressed mainly because the people I am talking to will probably know somewhat about me, but public speaking comes easy to me because I know that the majority of the people I speak to will not speak to me ever
Overall, I recognized that mediation is a much better choice than adjudication (Bishop, p. 38). Mediation not only restores relationships but it settles disputes and facilitates understanding, learning and growth (Bishop, p. 6). Additionally, the in class mediation made me realize that mediation is not linear. In a mediation, the mediator has to constantly adapt in order to move the parties closer to a solution. Furthermore, through the four in class mediations I realized that mediation could be applied to a wide variety of scenarios.
I have always been a rather outgoing person when I am around my peers, but it used to be a different story for me outside of school. I never went out of my way to talk to adults because I had this
3. Mediation Communications Mediator confidentiality for communications is essential to the success of mediation. But it is not an inviolable principle; there are certain cases where it will be encroached upon, lest in recognition of the public interest that a mediator fulfils. One way to approach this might be via a blanket rule with specific exceptions where society’s interest outweighs the interest of confidentiality. 3.1.
