“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.”

                            Theodore Roosevelt  

Reflection: I agree with what Theodore Roosevelt is saying in this quote. If someone tells you to choose between two things you always have to try to think before you choose something. The first thing that should go through your head is if whatever you are going to choose is the right thing to choose. You have to be careful in choosing the right and in choosing the wrong. For example if you are running late to work and you think if I break the rules and I go a little faster I might get there in time. You should always rethink what you are going to do before doing it and think about the consequences that it might bring. 

Life planning progress post 

 I have achieved 48 goals out of 200 goals. I haven't really achieved really big or interesting goals.Most of the goals that i have achieved are goals like buying my first nirvana shirt ( my favorite band) Trying my first soft pretzel. I really like that goal because i remember that i have trying to achieve that goal for a really long time and i hadn't have the chance to achieve it but when i did i felt so happy and disappointed because i realized that i had been missing that for a long time. I'm really looking forward to accomplish goal number 162 because i really want to join a sport with the bestie. I've been wanting to join a sport for a really long time and hopefully i can do it soon with her.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

In my point of view I think that I would want to maybe look back at this career in the future. I think that it would be a good job and it doesn’t take so much time of school. I wouldn’t want to do this my whole life I would probably look forward to other careers because they don’t have a really good salary. 

Dr. Bob

Video Reflection: I think that doctor Bob from New York is a very generous and kind man. Not many people would do what he does. According to the video doctor bob is a doctor who doesn’t really help people for the money he has no salary. Doctor Bob helps his patients and anybody that needs his help because he wants to because he is a generous man who doesn’t care about the money and only cares about helping others. I think that doctor Bob is teaching us a great lesson because there should be more people like this we should think about others and not only ourselves. Doctor Bob only gets money from donations given by the people.

“Make each day your masterpiece. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better, and over a period of time you become a lot better.”  

John Wooden,

UCLA

Reflection: In my opinion I agree with what John wooden is saying in this quote. If you try your hardest to do something or accomplish a goal that you have set in your life you have to try your hardest every day to accomplish that goal. You might have a goal that is not able to be accomplished until a long time but if you push yourself every day you will accomplish your goal in a smaller amount of time. You should always use every day to your fullest if you want to see bigger results faster.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not? ]

I think that I wouldn’t want to be a dentist from the military. The reason why I wouldn’t want to be one is because I don’t know how much you get paid for doing it. I think that it would be a good opportunity and something very good to do because of all the compensations but I would have to think about it.

Video reflection: In this video it shows how doing something good for another person can change someone else’s life. Sara is a girl who plays softball for western Oregon. Sara had never hit a home run before in her life and in this occasion she hit the ball over the fence. When Sara ran to home she hurt her foot and want able to finish the home run there was no way her team was able to help her. Two really helpful and kind girls from the other team by the names of Mallory and Liz decided to help her finish the homerun by carrying her all the way to home. What they did was something really kind and they chose to do something that would make another person happy they weren’t selfish at all and the thought about Sara and not themselves. This really touched my heart and it really showed character from the opposite team.

“It’s a great moment when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time.”

                             Pam Knox

                      Head softball coach western Oregon

                 

Reflection: In my opinion I think that Pam Knox is right with what she is saying in this statement. I think that if someone steps up and does the right thing at the right time they are great people. Some people are always doing what all the other people do. If there is a huge fight you may see many people joining the fight. There can be thousands of people doing what’s wrong and thousands of other people joining them if you are a person who decides to not be influenced by others and chooses to do the right that person is a great person.

I think that by living by these commandments you will live a better and peaceful life than the people who don’t go through them. Especially the commandment that days to take responsibility of your actions because it is something that we should all do. Instead of blaming it on others we should blame it on ourselves.

Student Success Statement

   “A promise must never be broken.”

Reflection: I agree with this quote by Alexander Hamilton. I also think that a promise should never be broken because sometimes you may trust a person on telling them you biggest secrets and they might promise to not say anything and they brake their promise that is the worst thing that you can do. When you break a promise people stop trusting you and they would never be open minded in front of you because they know that you aren’t a trustworthy person. By breaking promises you show that you are a really bad person and you start losing friends and people you like. Breaking a promise is something you should never do if you ask me.

My favorite world record is the longest nails one. The reason why I liked that world record was because I never thought that someone can grow their nails that long and I found it very amusing. I would want to break a world record. I think that if I would break a world record I would feel special and it would be something that I can always look back to in my history.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

I think that I would want to be a medical assistant to start with so that  can see how being in the medical field is and to experience the many things that I would be seeing and experiencing if I go forward in the medical field. I think that the salary is not that bad and It would be good to work as a medical assistant temporarily.

            Visualization- Imagination

       “What you see is what you get.”

                        Anonymous

             

          

Reflection: What this quote means is that if you set a goal to be something or be a certain way you would most likely be the way you see yourself. If you see yourself as a teacher in the future then you would most likely be a teacher in the future because you are setting a goal to do something and you would accomplish it. In my 100+ goals I put things that I would want to do in the future. I put things that I want to see myself do and I will accomplish it. You see yourself as you want to be seen. 

Student Success Statement

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”

                         

                           Henry David Thoreau

Reflection: I agree with what Henry David is saying in this statement. The reason why I also think this is true is because I don’t see how you can get in trouble or have problems when you are doing the right thing. When you do something good it never fails. For example if you do something bad like drugs or something like that it will end up as something bad in the future it will bring consequences in your life.  

    Student Success Statement

“My basic principle is that you don’t make decisions because they are easy; you don’t make them because they are cheap; you don’t make them because they are popular; you make them because they are right.”

                                Theodore Hesburgh

Reflection: I think this statement by Theodore Hesburgh is giving a correct message. When you are going to make a decision you don t have to be forced to make the bad decisions. You should always think about what you are going to do and then make the good decision. For example if someone comes up to you and they tell you to smoke with them you know that this may make you a cool person and others will look at you better but you also know that it is not the correct thing to do. If you look at that person and you tell them that you want to choose the right and not do what others want you to do they make look at you like a boring and an unfair person but you know that you are choosing the right.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

I think that I wouldn’t want to have this career forever but I think that I would want a job like this to start with. Later on I would want to do something that would pay more and would be more advanced than just a nurse that takes care of people. They do have a pretty fair salary so I think that I would want to do this for a while.

  Student Success Statement

“It is our duty to concentrate all our influence to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound. (not good)                                                     

                     

                                  

                      Joseph Smith

Reflection: I agree with what Joseph smith is saying in this reflection. I also think that we should make the people who do well popular and make the people who do badly unpopular. The reason why there is so many people doing bad stuff are because we choose to make the bad people popular. If we make the good people popular there will be more good people than bad. An example that I can give is imagine that there is an artist who does really bad things like drugs and bad language. People are going to be influenced by that person and start doing the same. If there is a good artist in the other hand that does good stuff and help others people are going to be influenced in doing good things. 

          Home Health Aide

Duties and responsibilities: A home health aide has many responsibilities some responsibilities that it has are they have to assist others with personal tasks like helping to keep homes safe and clean.

Education: You do not need a license to become a home health aide you might need certification. I order to be certified you are supposed to pass an exam after 75 hours of training and skills. If you don’t have a high school diploma you will not have fewer opportunities for advancement.

Add a picture:

                         

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one?

In my opinion I don’t think that I would want to be a home health aide. The reason why I wouldn’t want to be a home health aid is because they don’t have a good salary. Also to become a home health aid you really don’t have any education which makes me think that anyone can be one and it wouldn’t really be a good career.
