Critical Thinking Question:
Do you think self-awareness is overrated in leadership? Some of the most famous and successful CEOs are often described as having low self-awareness and being difficult to work with, however, often are liked by employees (not always) and achieve great success. If self-awareness is so critical for leadership, how do we explain their success?
Does self-awareness actually make someone a better leader, or can it sometimes hold them back?

Part 3 Replacement Behavior and Strategies (Approximately 1 page)
Explain how a replacement behavior is connected to the function of the client’s problem behavior.
Describe how the behavior is functioned-based and connected to the function of the client’s problem behavior. How will this replacement behavior result in the maintaining reinforcer?

Margo is a 49-year-old divorced woman who works as a bank teller. She tells her primary care provider (PCP) that she feels tired all the time and that she is gaining weight because she has no interest in her usual exercise activities, and that she has been overeating, even though she is often not really hungry.
She notices that she has difficulty falling asleep at night and awakens around 4 a.m. most mornings, without her alarm, and cannot go back to sleep even though she still feels tired.

“Such a time as this”
God’s Word advises us to use our time wisely because He knows that there are many things in life that can distract us from what truly matters. Do not waste your time so that you look back with regret – you do not know what tomorrow holds! Read and study Bible verses about time to better understand how important every moment is in light of eternity.
1. Everything Has Its Time
2. No One Knows the Day or Hour
3. Trust God in his perfect timing.
Time is defined as the duration in which all things happen, or a precise instant that something happens
The Beginning and the End
One thing is certain, the Scriptures make a distinction between the “temporal” and the “eternal.” Paul says that the things that are seen are “temporal” but the things not seen are “eternal” (2 Cor. 4:18). In describing God, the psalmist declares: “. . . from everlasting to everlasting, you are God . . .” (Psa. 90:2). Yet, in the same context, of man it is said: “The days of our years are threescore years and ten . . .” (v. 10). “Time” clearly does not relate to God and man in the same way.
Genesis 1:3
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness [a]was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. [b]So the evening and the morning were the first day.
1. Everything Has Its Time
Colossians 4:5
Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time.
Ecclesiastes 3:1
To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
Sat in the pew, usher, scripture reading, then sermon.
2. No One Knows the Day or Hour
Mark 13:32
32 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
Matthew 6:33
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
Lacey
3. Trust God in his perfect timing.
Hebrews 13:8
8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Psalm 30:5
For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for life;
Weeping may endure for a night,
But [a]joy comes in the morning.
Faith,
Careers, marriages spiritual journey.
