The Ultimate Choice

 Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others- the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions for the remainder of your life. This one choice, The ultimate choice, is your keystone for being the best student and person you can probably be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice.

THE ULTIMATE CHOICE is: To be a CTR person- to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT 24/7!!! Mr. Haymore

    Reflection: I agree with Mr. Haymore because the choices that you make in life really does set you life and your future. For example you don't know if to become a nurse or a police officer. You end up choosing a nurse your whole life is going to change you will be taking care of patient you will have to be more available. However if you choose to be a police officer you life would also change because you would have to be out in the streets making sure everything is okay . You will be putting you life at risk. Making that one decision in life can really make a difference on what you life is going to be. We all hope that our decisions are the best we will all find out in the future.

“ 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’re popular; you make them because they’re right.”- Theodore Hesburgh (former President).    

 Reflection: To me this quote says a lot because it not just telling you to choose the right but it is also telling you to go far in life and to take chances. To not go for the easy road to not go through the cheap road. It is saying to go for what you believe in but also make sure that you are choosing the right along you way and on what you choose to go through in life. This quote is also saying is to not go for the popular way in life. Why?... because you need to make your own choices in life not just follow people around. For example how boring would it be if everyone chose the same thing to do in life that would be sad because what if you want to be a teacher a doctor or a writer. There are many things you can do. Imagine yourself in a world full off the same job how boring right . you have to make your own decisions on what you want to do in life because you never know what you good choices can get you in life.

                               

“True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what’s right.”- Brigham Young      

    Reflection: To me this quote says a lot and it's very true because doing what's right can get you true independence and freedom in life. To get freedom all you really have to do is choose the right and live the right way. If you don't you're living wrong and living wrong can get you into trouble and getting into trouble can get you to many consequences in life.To have and be independent you would need to live the right way as well. Why?, because to have independence you would need to be a good person you would need to choose the right. If you don't how are you going to be independent. You can always depend on people for the rest of your life.                  

       

“ Character Matters Most.”- Dale Murphy  

Reflection: To me this quote says a lot because it true character does matter most. For example people are going to look for your character. For example at a job interview you might be really smart but you have bad character they are not going to want you. On the other hand if you are really smart and you have good character of course they are going to pick you instead of the other because Character does matter no matter what. To me Dale Murphy is a very smart and wise man. He really shows us and especially us teens that you should always show good character especially in you work or in life or also in your educational life because you just might never know what your good character can give and bring you in life.

                 

                               University's 

  One of my desires is to get into a good University. It is one of my desires because I really want to go far in life.  I also want to make my parents happy and i wont them to know that I try hard to get good grades. Even though i might not be a straight (A) student but I do try my best. For example right now I am on the silver list but I hope to one day to achieve my goal and to be on the Gold list. To me education didn't really matter to me in middle school but now since I am in high school i have to be more series on my actions and my decisions because in order to achieve my goal i have to get good grades and in order to get good grades i have to do my work and in order to do my work i have to make the right decisions. I hope to one day to make it into A good University.  

       

              

   











       

" Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company. - George Washington 

Reflection: To me tis quote means is that if you hang out with the wrong quality with people you are sure to be one of them. To be able to be a good person that always makes the best choices in life than you should always hang out with the right group of people and always choose the the right. Or you can always hang on your own because it is way better to be on your own and choosing the right in life instead of hanging out with the wrong crowd. When you hang out with the wrong crowd you are always having to choose the wrong because hanging out with the wrong crowd can get you into many consequences in life and make you make bad chooses. To me this quote shows a lot because it helps you realize that its okay to be alone instead of hanging out with the wrong crowd. I believe this quote can really help people in life especially us teenagers.

Reflection :  To me this quote means is that education can open many doors in life and to be able to open doors you need to find a way to unlock them and the way to do that is to have a key and to be able to get a key is by going to school and getting a good education. By getting a good education you get a diploma and when you graduate you have many opportunities in life and many doors you can open and make.

"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you know where  the goalposts are" - Arnold H. Glasgow 

Reflection: To me this quote really helps me think the most because to be able to go somewhere in life and want to accomplish some goals, you have to know how your going to get there and you need to try and get to your goal.This goals explains a lot because you wont go far unless you know what your heading for and what you really want in life.

          Student Success Statement 

" Enthusiasm makes the difference."-Dr.Norman Vincent Peale 

Reflection: To me this quote means is that to have enthusiasm is better in life. For example to get better grades you have to show enthusiasm to be able to if not you wont be able to get to your goal. Another example is the video Mr Haymore used it showed the character being slow so he got left behind and that is how life is going to be if you don't strive for what you want your going to be left behind and not achieve any goals on the way. 

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

Reflection: To me this quote is saying is that he didn't want to quit something he wanted to do what was right for him and what he thought was right. T o me this reflects me because you always have to do whats right in life because it is a good thing to do. Not only just for you but for other people as well. For example your parents they want to see you go far so you have to do whats right to accomplish your goal or just anything you want to accomplish in life. 

                 Lead Your Life 

What happens if you lead your life the right way ?

"Its not about how to achieve your dreams. Its about how you lead your life the RIGHT WAY, the karma ( destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you." - Dr. Randy Pausch  

Reflection: To me this quote means is that you have to live your life to the fullest because if you don't you also might not achieve some of your goals. For example if you do live your life to the fullest you might also achieve some goes on the way. Another example is if you achieve some of your goals in life you are living life to the fullest because you are also having fun along the way. This reflects to me because If i wait to do something and not live my life i wont be able to achieve any of my goals in life.

  Educating the Body,Mind,and Character 

"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 

Reflection: To me this quote means is that educating you mind and body and also your character is better for you.It is better for you and others and not only right now but also for your future.This can benefit you in many ways in life and your goals.     

               Body-Mind-Spirit 

" Take responsibility for your OWN body,mind and spirit, for your own physical,mental, and spiritual well-being."-Mr.C.S. Haymore

Reflection: To me this quote means that you need to show responsibility on your own self. In my opinion this means that you should not rely on other people to do stuff for you in your responsibilities because there your responsibilities that you have to take action for . If you don't there can be many consequences in life if you don't take action for you responsibilities.I think this quote is very inspiring for me because it shows that that if i want to succeed in life i have to take full responsibilities for myself if i want to go far and succeed in my high school life and out in the real world.

                IDP Showcase 

When it came to the actual idp showcase day i was a little nervous but I've done it before during summer bridge program so i had a little experience. My topic was on Lung Cancer, and my part was treatments and cures. I learned that there are three types of treatments witch are chemotherapy and radiotherapy and surgery. Although to be able to have surgery they need to make sure that the disease did not spread throughout the body. This project benefits me in many types of ways. One is that i will not be nervous during presentations. Two it helps me do job interviews. Three it helps me to be able to believe in myself and be confident because you have to be able to believe that you are going to succeed in life.   

         Always do whats right -Mark Twain 

Reflection: To me this quote means is that you always have to do whats right no matter what in life. This also means to me that you should always do whats right in your choices and also your action. For example if you choose the wrong in you choices you will end up in in a bad situation. If you also choose the wrong in your actions you will also end up in a bad situation or consequences, So what Im trying to say if you you choose the wrong in any way you will end up in a bad situation. To me you should always choose the right even if no one is by your side because you can end up in big trouble. It is better if you choose the right in your actions and also your choices because if you do whats right you wont have to worry in life. 

  

  

"Kindness is the essence of greatness."             - Joseph B. Wirthlin 

Reflection: To me this quote means is kindness is greatness. If you are a kind person that respects people your life will be great with many opportunities in life. For example if you are walking around and you see someone drop something that was probably meaningful to them and you give it back to them you will feel good about your self because you did something good that could of probably changed that persons life.This example is wrong and choosing the wrong, if you see someone bulling you need to let someone know because if you don't that person can get really emotional. If you are there just watching and laughing you are part of the bulling to. You need to be kind and respectful to others and show kindness and to the person that is bulling to stop.

      

  

  " The best recreation is to do good "       - William Penn 

Reflection: To me this quote means is that when you do good in life a lot of people will do the same because you show them that doing good is way better the doing wrong. As said you will be a happier person in life.If you work hard for something you will be rewarded and that will be will your recreation. We need more people like this in this world because there is many people that like to choose the wrong. So we have to set an example to those people that choose the wrong decisions in there life.If you do good in life you can be appreciated in life by others. 

 

" A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life" -Coach K 

Reflection:To me this quote means to me is your name represents who you really are.If you choose the right your name will be known as something good.For example if you achieve something that's great, but if you are a choose the wrong person people will dislike you and they'll know your name by a person that chooses the wrong .If you are a choose the right person and achieve something in life people are gonna like you. When they hear your name there gonna know you by a great person that always chooses the right and achieves many goals in life. 

    

 " If your so-called friends urge you to do  anything you know to be wrong, you be the  one to make a stand for the right, even if  you stand alone.Have the moral courage to be  a light for others to fallow." Thomas S. Monson 

  Reflection: To me this quote means to me is that, when you have to stand up for yourself or someone else even if no one is by your side you have to take courage and be positive about yourself. When you get older there is a lot of people that are gonna go against you and you have to take courage and stand up for yourself even if they are all against you. You need to show them what you are capable of. If you don't they can be consequence that can come into your life. For example if your friends witch you think are your friends want to you to steel you need to be the bigger person and say no. Or else you can get caught and you will lose your freedom of life and serve the bad consequences.
