"Enthusiasm makes the difference"

-Dr. Norman Vincent Peale

This quote is very true and it has meaning. What this quote means to me is that if you are always full of enthusiasm, then many things will go great. On the other hand, then things obviously won't go good. An example of always being full of enthusiasm is that you always finish your homework, and you do all you work. You also help around a lot in school. In conclusion, you are very motivated. On the other hand, if you are not full of enthusiasm, then you will just be a lazy person, that does not want to do their work, and does not care about anything. As you can see, there is a big difference between being enthusiasm, and not. This is why this quote is true. If you are what the quote says, then you will always get good grades. I think it is good that we are all full of enthusiasm because that way we will all be full of energy, to learn everyday. On the other hand, if we are not what the quote says, then you will be a sloth, and not want to learn anything. You basically will not do your work, and you will just want to sleep, and you will never get anywhere. Just like in the video that we saw, we can see how one of them is full of enthusiasm, while the other one is not, and he is often left behind. This is why this quote is true, and we should all be full of enthusiasm, and never be a sloth.

"I wasn't trying to leave a legacy. I was trying to do what was right."

-Dean Smith

What this quote means to me is to always do what is the right thing. That is like the main point of this. You should always do what is right, but not for the purpose of you wanting to get famous, or for you wanting to get rich. You have to do it by the heart, and because it is what you love. For example, if you decide to do something just to get famous, then that is wrong. It is wrong because what if you are doing something that does not make you happy, but you are just doing it for the fame. That will not be worth it. On the other hand, if you do what you love, then the rest that comes along does not matter. The only important thing is that you are doing what you love. This is what i think that it means by this quote, because Dean Smith had no intentions of getting big, or growing fame, but he did what he loved, and everything else just came along with that. That is why it is very important that you always do what you love, even though people might be against you, it does not matter because at the end of the day you are the one that knows what you are doing with your life, not other people. To add on, i think that Dean Smith said this quote with the intentions of saying that he just wants to always be remembered. This is why i think that this quote is very important. 

“It’s not about how to achieve your dreams. It’s about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the RIGHT WAY, the karma (good results, destiny, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you.” - Dr. Randy Pausch

This quote has a lot of meaning. What is basically means to me is to always do what the right thing is, because if you do, then a lot of good things will come your way. On the other hand, if you are leading your life the wrong way, then you won’t be receiving anything that is good, such as good luck, or good results. The reason why is because if you do not deserve it, then why get it. For example, if you have very good grades, do well in all your classes, and always try your very best, then you will be getting good results. It can be something as small as getting straight a’s, because you worked very hard for it so you definitely deserve it. On the other hand, if you are a ctw person, then that will just bring you problems, that you do not want to deal with. You will not get any good results, but they will be all bad. This is what i think that the quote means by that. What i think it means by “the dreams will come to you”, is that if you do something good, and lead you life into the right path, then you do not have to worry about anything, because all of the good things will come to you. You do not have to worry, because as the quote said, it will all come to you. This is what i think that the meaning is of this quote, and the importance.

“Make your passion your profession”

What my passion is watching tv shows, especially Teen Wolf. It is a passion of mine because everytime that i am not feeling good, then i watch it, that way it can distract me. Another reason why i also love watching tv shows is because if another person watches the same one too, then you can talk about it with them. I love when people talk about something that they like doing, or makes them happy, so this is why i like talking about my favorite tv shows with other people. To add on, you get to learn more about the actors and their personalities, which is amazing. I love learning about actors, and their life of growing up. The reason why is because many of them went through struggle to do what they love, so that really inspires me. The way that my passion can become my profession is by being a producer, or a director. That way i will be able to be apart of creating the show, and also directing it. It would be a profession that will make me happy because i would like to meet many new people, especially the actors that you can work with. The education required to be a producer is that you must have a bachelor’s degree, and you can also join Master of Business Administration, or Master of fine Arts. The requirements to a director would be being a good communicator with others, being creative, have training in film and journalism. To add on, you can get a bachelor’s degree, but it is not required. In order to be a producer or a director, you must be very creative, have presentation and negotiation skills, and also be good in leadership and planning skills. As you can see, it is not that difficult, as long as you do something that makes you really happy, then do it.

Jeff Davis: Producer of Teen Wolf and Criminal Minds

“Of all the work that is done or that can be done for our country, the greatest is that of educating the BODY, the MIND, and above all the CHARACTER , giving spiritual and moral training to those who in a few years are themselves to decide the destinies of the nation.”

-Theodore Roosevelt

This quote has a lot of meaning, and it is important. What this quote is saying is that it is very important that we all make sure that we educate our body, mind, and last but not least, our character. This is very important because it teaches us that that is one of the main things that we need to do, in order to decide the destinies of the nation. An example of this can maybe be voting for a president that is very respectful of everyone in the world, and does not judge no one. The reason why i say this is because if you do not educate your body, mind, or your character, then you will not know anything, and vote for anyone, because you really do not care, or you will just not vote at all, because you do not have the mind. On the other hand, if you do have education, in your body, mind, and character, then you will know which president to vote for, one that it educated and respectful. Also one that does not judge. This is why this quote is very important, because it teaches you the differences. To add on, it can also show if you are a ctr or a ctw person. The reason why is because if you do not have the body, mind, or character, then that shows that you can be rude, and not smart of your choices. On the other hand if you are ctr, then you will be very polite, and understanding of everything. This is why this quote is very important.

“Take responsibility for your own body, mind, and spirit, for your own physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.”

-Mr C.S. Haymore

What this quote means to me is to basically always make sure that you are taking well care of yourself. It is always important that you also take responsibility for your body, mind, and spirit. For example, if you are sick, then you need to make sure that you are taking good care of yourself. To add on, if you do not take care of yourself, then you can get even more sick, and that is not good. That is an example of taking care of your bod, which is your own physical well being. One example of taking responsibility of your mind can be always thinking positive, and never giving up. That can be an example of taking care of your mind, which is mental well being. The last example will be of taking responsibility of you spirit. What i think it means by that is that you should always have a good spirit, and a positive attitude, even though you may be going through some stuff. You need to make sure that you think good about everything. That could be the example for taking responsibility of your spirit, which is your spiritual well being. As you can see, this is what i think that this quote means. It has a lot of meaning, that will teach you a lot. This is why i think that this quote is very important, and also the message that is has.

Intelligence plus Character

“Intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character; that is the goal of true education.”

- Martin Luther King Jr.

What this quote means to me is many things. It is saying that not only is intelligence the goal of true education, but so is character. It is saying that you need to have both in order to achieve the true goal of education. For example, if you are a very intelligent person, but you are rude and not polite, and have a disrespectful attitude, then that is not correct. It isn’t correct because then you will not care about your education and take it as a joke. To add on, it will show that you will never try, because you don’t care, but you are a very smart intelligent person. It is wrong because you are smart, but you do not try, so you are just wasting your time. Another example will be being very nice, having a good, respectful attitude, but never trying in school. That is very wrong. This is why this quote says that it has to be intelligence plus character, not just one or the other. If you have both, then you will be able to achieve many things in life, and you will achieve the goal of true education. This is why this quote is true, because it will help you reflect, and it you are intelligent, but you have a bad character, then it will help you reflect, that way you can become a better person, and you will achieve one goal there. Or if it is the other way around, then you will learn more and always try harder in everything. This is why this quote is important.

"We need the courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn't do." - Richard L. Evans

What this quote means to me is to always have the courage to start and keep on doing what is right. We should always do what we want to achieve, and what is best for us. One thing that we need to stop doing like this quote says is all the bad things. We need to have the courage to stop doing that, because it can affect our lives, in a bad way, To add on, we should never choose the wrong. That is what this quote is also telling us. For example, you need to help others, and be kind. To add on, you have to be humble, because that is the type of person that is very respectful.

This is why this quote is very important, because is teaches you that you need to have the courage to keep on doing certain things, and also to stop doing things.

School Break Days

There were many things that I did during this winter break. I did things such as spend a lot of time with my family, and go to places. One thing that i did was go to Sky Zone with my cousins. It was very fun because it was my first time going, and my sister and I were able to spend time with my cousins. Another thing that we did after that was go to the store to buy clothes. It was a good day spent with my cousins and aunts. They live in West Covina, California, so we had to leave early in the morning to spend a lot of time with them. I also went to their house for New Years, and for Christmas I went to my other cousins house. It was fun because we had a lot of food, and we were able to spend time as a family. I also got to see my baby cousins which are growing so fast. It made me happy seeing them open all of their presents. I did not watch any movies but I did finish my favorite tv show, which is Teen Wolf. I finished all of the seasons and now i have to wait each week for a new episode because season 6 just came out. I really love that show. Another show that i started watching is Stranger Things. It is really interesting and leaves you with a lot of suspense. I did not do any homework because i got none from each class.
