Student Success Statement 

"In any moment of decision,

the best thing you can do

is the right thing." 

Theodore Roosevelt

Reflection: I agree with this quote by Theodore Roosevelt because all you can really do when decision making is to make what you thing is the right thing and the right choice. No one willingly decides to make the bad decision, except for those few bad people, so all one must t=do is pick the best option and try to get the best out of things. 

Life Planning Progress

Life Planning Progress

-I have 216 goals in my 100+ life planning notebook, and out of those 216 I have achieved 78 goals. I think this is not a big number as in in need more goals. I do believe I can broaden my imagination and create more goals. I wish to have my entire composition notebook full of goals from cover to cover. I have been reading my life planning goals daily and I think this helps me remember my goals and it encourages me to achieve more. This exercise is a good way to help us create a mind-set as to what we want to achieve in our lives. There are no excuses as to why we can not achieve our goals when we are the ones to set them according to what we want and can do in our life. Setting goals and make a big difference because you and taking note of all the little accomplishments that you will someday be proud of.

Dr. Bob

The Best Doctor Yet

  -Dr. Bob lives in Albany, New York. In his late thirties, he quite his high paying job to become a doctor. Not just any doctor though. This man does not charge any one for his medical assistance. He accepts people with no health insurance. He even gives those in desperate need money for their treatments out of his own pocket. The only he accepts is that from donations, but even when someone gives him money for himself he puts that money toward the cause of helping his patients. Most doctors may think he is a fool for not charging at least a bit of money but Bob does not want to take from those that have barely enough for themselves. This goes to show that there are good people in the world who care about others and want to help those in need.

S.S.S. Alexander Hamilton

Student Success Statement 

"A promise must never be broken."
Alexander Hamilton

Reflection: I agree very much with this quote. No one should ever break a promise. No one should make a promise that they can't or don't plan to fulfill. Breaking a promise shows your character and who you are as a person. If you break a promise people will see you as someone who is not trustworthy and who is not responsible. You must always keep a promise. For example if you were to promise to help some one study the night before they have their big test but you go out to a party with some other friends instead, that person would most likely fail the test the next day and you could have done something about it. Not only did you not help a friend in need but you let that person down when they asked for help. It is very important to keep your every promise, if not you may not know who you let down.
