Class Evaluation 

1. I like that in this class we focus on different things. We get to learn different material, and also that we can focus on writting and expresing our toughts and feelings as well. We do not just write blogs anymore, but now we can now have more options on the learning material that we have.

2. Altough the class is very nice, I would say I do not like leaving my work incomplete. I feel like I could have finished but I no longer did. The class it self does not have any aspects that truly bother me. 

3. I think that the class is very well, and I currently do not have anything to say about improving this website. 

4. For me in this class a highlight was the free lance blogs , I li,ke the fact that we could write about our feelings and interests. Also that students are tiught about personal developement. 

5. I do not think that I did very bad in this class, but I do not think that I did my best either. I feel like in some things I could have achieved and done better at. 

6. I am reading and writing my goals but maybe not as often as we should. I am not reading and writing 5 minutes daily. Most of tge times I only do it when I am in class.

7. I am looking forward for personal developement everyday, `Also to make the right choices and to improve myself daily as a person.

I like that i th

                         10 Keys To Personal Power  


Key 1: Clarity 

Having clarity on what you want is really important. Having your mind set in the things that you would like to acomplish. If you do not have clarity, then you will be confused on the things you really want. We must have clarity on our goals, and on our plan to acomplish them. We must picture where we want to be. Additionally, we can write them down for assurance. Having agood mind set on our goals will eventually  lead us to reaching them. We must know what we try to accomplish or we might find ourselves lost later on. It is not just knowing though. it is going out there and wirking for it.





" Plane vision. Determine what you want to be, do or have in life. Have a sense of direction and know where you're going. If you do not have clear specific goals in life you are doomed forever to work with others who do."

Key 2: Competence
" If you commit to exellence, oportunities will always come your way . The harder you work the better you get"

 We must try to settle for the best we can do and more. We must seek to improve ourselves on a daily basis. To try to become better day by day and do the best that we can. To be competent on what we do. For example a player must feel competent at basketball and work to improve their skills. The way that Jeremy Lin is competent at basketball and works to improve his skills. Competence is when you do something with capability. Competence is important in order to not let others down.  We might no0t start out as being competent at something but we must work our way up to it. Hard work can make us competent and able.

I will apply this by trying to be competent at the things that I do.

Key 3: Concentrate
" Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself " Is this the best use of my time?' before you start anything.


For us to do beter and achieve more impeccably we must concentrate on what we do. We must also concentrate on our goals and our visions. To concentrate on things we must put our tought in to the things that we do. Not only that, but the things that we want to achieve. We must concentrate on improvement. For example, not only wantong a goal but putting mind into achieving it. Many times it is  har d to concentrate with so many things going on around us. The best way is to set our minds straight on what we want. After we do that go for it. Concentration also requires effort.

I will apply this by concentrating on the things i do and things that I want to achieve.

Key 4 : Common Sense 

•  Train your mind 
• think things through
• listen to your intuition 
• learn from setbacks

It is important to have common sence and think things through. Sometimes things are just simple and we tend to overthink them.  Many times the common sense answer is just right and we tend to overthink these things, We have to train our mind to do thing right and think them throughly. If we fail at something we can also learn from it. This to help us continue to get better.

I will apply this in my own life but trying not to overthink things and just using common sense.

  Key 5: Creativity 

" Except the fact that every human being is a genius. The hallmark of creativity is asking questions. The people who are most creative ask the most questions. 

We are all different and have different traits. We differ in special talents and unique qualities .One of the things to do is to find out ways we can express those unique qualities positively. Just because something is different does not mean that it is necessarily bad.Everyone is different so we can have different ways of doing certain things. We can utilize our differences to create something unique and new. To be creative and have the passion to change things or make something better. Creativity is important for us. It gives us the capability to take something and make it unique and new. We can be created in many things and in many areas of life. To express ourselves in a creative way. There is creativity in many details of daily life.

I will apply this to my life by putting my creativity to use.

Key 6:Consideration

"The quality of your relationships with other people will determine your success in life."

" Develop the people skills you need to because a better communicator. Take courses in listening, speaking, ect... 

" If you were to learn one more word a day for 5 years you would be very educated,"

We don't exactly never know what others people are going through and what they might need . So it is good to treat others politely and with respect regardless. Or sometimes we do know what other people are going through and it is our job to be there and support them. To us it might not seem like a big deal , but to others it can mean a lot. We should have consideration regardless of who the  person is. Even if certain individual is not our close friends it is important to do so and care for others. Regardless the social status, race, looks, attitude,ect.. An example of consideration could be you considering the person who is alone at school and befriending them and showing they are also capable of having friends. Consideration for others can also improve us as a person. It will make us feel better and it will show us valuable lessons. Minor details to us can mean a lot to others. We must have that in mind.

Key 7: Consistency

Be consistent with family, friends, boss, and at work. Be a dependable person. Go for that you say you'll do,"

Consistency is relevant. Consistency is relevant because we can help others by developing our own character. Is is important to be consistent so that others too can depend on us. Consistency is one good trait for personal growing. We should be giving a good impression and doing a good job in the things that we do.  It deeds good to have others depend on you and count with you on certain things. To keep consistency in our lives and also in our school and work places. This is very important. To keep control of ourselves. An example of consistency is when you are decided to do something and you keep working hard for it.

I will apply this by trying to maintain consistency personally.

Key 8: Commitment 

Success is not possible without commitment. The ability to commit yourself who heartedly is the basis of achieving success 

Be commited to work.

Commitment is very important because it shows how a person may or may not want something. If a person really wants something then they will commit themselves to work hard for it and achieve it. The level of commitment in something will most likely determine the outcome of something. 

Key 9: Courage 

The fear of failure is the greatest reason for failure

We all fail, so we should not just worry about failing. The times we fail will not make us less successful at the end. It is the part of learning at the end. It does not matter how many times we fail as long as we strive to be better everytime. Failure can be a part of winning. That is the way that we learn at times. For example, many people who bare now successful have failed more than we have. But it mattered that they kept going.

Key 10: Confidence 

 You only gain confidence by doing things over and over"

Confidence is important. But it must not be confused with arrogance. We gain confidence when we work hard towards our goals.Confidence is gained day to day by improving in certain things. We must not always feel like we are not worth it instead we should value ourselves and have confidence. We are capable of great things and believing in them is a verb important part. For example, if we wanted to run a race we must be confident that we can finish it. Confidence should be moderate, because it is not good to have too much confidence either. To others, over confidence might seem like we think of ourselves as superior. That is something relevant to look for as well. When we know that we have worked hard at something it makes us more confident. 

" Confidence also comes with hard work"

Free Lance Post       Jesus To Me

This week has been pretty good. I am looking forward for some of the upcoming things this week. During the week I have gone to church, to school, to practice, and hung out with my friends. On church we have learned about God and his marvelous ways.On this port I would like to express my views on who Jesus is to me. To me He is more than just a historical figure, He in fact is so much more. Altogether He is the king, the son of God and savior. Personally to me he is not just a part of life, but he is life himself. He is my strength when I'm weary, He is my counselor when I am sad, He is my protector when I am in fear, He is my inspiration and motivation. I do not believe in Him because my parents or other people told me to do so, but I believe because I have every reason to. Every morning that I wake up has been a new way for His mercy.  Some people may contradict this but I know what I believe and what I do is  real.  He still lives and there is a reason why He still is the most influential and well known after 2000 years. His teachings are not about how to be religious and exclude others, they are about loving each other in perfect peace. They are not about how to get richer and wealthier, they are about how wealthy love is and the real things that matter. They are not about rejecting and hurting others, they are about forgiveness. All these things and many more He thought  to us. It is not a tradition or religion that I am striving for, it is the Living God.  Many people have become sensitive about this topic, but I see no good reason why. Why can we not talk about the most important things in life. After all if we believe, why are we restricted to express of this.

The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People 

Habit 1: Be Productive 

"Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all of the other habits and that is why it comes first. It says " I am the captain of my life. I can choose my attitude. I am responsible for my own happiness or unhappiness. I am in the driver's seat of destiny, not just as a passenger."

Reflection: Being productive is getting things done. Not just any kind of things, good things. We must produce, we can produce good works to help others, and that make us better. If someone is not really productive, then they cannot truly be effective. They go by hand. We must want to take our lives and make them productive and effective. We must not simply sit back and watch our life. We can be productive in more than just school or work. Productivity is key to improving That is why it is important to put much effort.

I will apply this y getting my things done and trying to be productive.



Habit 2: Begin With The End In Mind 


" Control your own destiny or someone else will"
" When you know where you intend to end up, you know where you are now"

It is important ton have a goal set of where we want to be. We must know where we want to start and where we want to end. We should try to have or final goal always in mind. We must remember what it is that we want and strive for that. To set our goals and picture them is really important. This will make us clear and what we want and what we are putting effort on daily. We must know that there is and end and make that end our goal. While on process put effort from our part. We must begin with a good attitude and our goals set. These things will help us be more effective people.

I will apply this by Picturing the end in my mind and putting in effort and a good attitude on my goals,

" There is an end to everything on earth, and we choose if we are going to make it a good ending or a bad ending"

Habit 3 Put First Things First

Organize and execute around priorities

Most times we know what our priorities should be but we do not give them the place we should. We should analyze the things that we should be  most effective at and give those things priority. Before we do other things that we might get eager to do. The same with goals we should have our goal set in mind before other minor set backs. Developing a plan for these things is important. We must organize how we will do these things and do them. To Focus on doing them as well is a very important part of this. We should organize less relevant things around priorities and not the other way around. We need to have a good mindset toward our priorities. Also we must make sure our priorities are the right priorities.

"We must not only have priorities but also have the right priorities."
I will apply this by setting my priorities straight and applying them.

Think Win Win 
"Think win or no deal"

To achieve something we must have the right mentality and the right attitude for it. We must have a positive attitude towards our efforts. If we are always thinking about failure, then we might end up failing. We must see ourselves winning and thinking of so. This can be applied on different things like winning a medal, a game, or a championship. Altough not only to this things, but also to a certain goal. We can win by achieving it. We must make ourselves have the attitude of a winner and think like wise. We must see our goals as achievable and go for them.

"The thought of winning, eventually makes you a winner" 
I will apply this by trying to have a positive attitude and thinking of winning"

4) Seek first to understand, then to be Understood
It is important to understand others because just like us others might as well be seeking understanding. Sometimes we might ruch into things and something can come out wrong. We can take our time to analyze the things we are doing before we rush into anything. It is often easy to judge people and critize them, but we are not on their place and do not know what they are going through. This can apply to different things such as personal lives and our relations with others. Befre we judge others we can try to understand what they could be going through. Before we do a certain job we must first try to understandwhat it is that we are trying to do. 

" SOMETIMES WE CGHOOSE NOT TO UNDERSTAND BECAUSE IT MAKES IT HARDER FOR US TO BE RIGHT."

I will apply this in my life by stopping and trying to understand some things.

7) Sharpen The Saw

The- Four Dimesions of Self Renewal: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/ Emotional

It is important to have all these things sharpened. Each of these categories is imporant. Some are more relevant than others . Each at its own level should be taklen care of. All of these thjings produce back effectiveness in a person. In order to work at your fullest and even extra, all of these  things should be present. It would make sense ofor us to be really good on one of these categories, but doing really bad on another. I think that is what happens to many. That is why we must listen to this habit. 



                                                         " For what reason will one be so physically strong, but so spriritually drained"

I will apply this in my life by trying to remain in the importance of the four dimensions.

I also plan on changing some things for the better.

                                           Upcoming Basketball Season 

The first basketball game will be in less than two months! This makes me excited but nervous at the same time, I feel like we have a lot to show, and also gain a good reputation for the team. I am someway I feel like we have been working for almost everyday and that should help. But in other way I feel like we still have much to learn, especially the new team. I have played on other teams before, but never for the school's team. Many people are counting on this team to do better then the teams the previous years. I know that I am a person that gets very nervous, which is something that I must learn to control. We still have some time but in that time we have a lot to learn and improve. I know that the only way to win and get better is to put heart into what we do.

How To Make Friends and Influence People

Rule 1 Six Ways To Make People Like You
. If you Want people To Like You...

Become genuinely Interested In Other People
1) Do this and you will be welcomed anywhere
2)Yo can make more friends in two moths by becoming interested in other people than you can by trying to get other people interested in you.
3)Ask questions to other people questions that they will enjoy answering

It is important to be interested in other people and care about them. It does not always have to be about us but in can be about others. We can show them interest in many ways. Sometimes people just need to feel that you are there. When people see that you are interested in them they will consider you more of a friend. 
Rule 2 Smile

1) "Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, "I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you."

2) "You don't feel like smiling? Then force yourself to smile."

3) "It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign (witness or indication) of friends."

A welcoming smile is a good way to greet someone without even having to talk to them. Sometimes a smile can say more then words can. When you smile at someone they feel comfortable and welcomed to start a conversation. When you give people a serious face they might think you do not like them, even if you do. By smiling you can make other people smile as well.  By smiling you can also clear up any misconceptions that people may have of you not liking them. Sometimes if you smile you even make yourself feel better inside.  We should try to smile at everyone even if they are not a friends. Smiling is good and it makes people also look good. Even if people do not smile back we should set the example.

I will apply this by trying to smile more. I can be very serious sometime and some people might take it the wrong way. So I will try to smile more.

Rule #3 Remember Names 
" A man's name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in my language"
"If you do not remember names you are headed for trouble"
Remembering names makes a person feel like you are actually interested in them. Sometimes when someone does not remember our names it can make us feel like we are irrelevant. Or it can just makes us feel like we don't matter enough to them. If you remember someone's name, then they most likely want to remember your name as well. A name is important to us, and if we hear someone saying are name friendly it will make us feel good. This is a way to make somebody feel good and relevant. It may not be out intention, but sometimes we might offend someone if we do not remember names. The same way we would feel bad too. Also the person might already know are name and it would make us look bad if we don't know theirs. We must try to remember or write them down.

I will apply this by trying to remember people's name because I tend to forget.

Rule #4 Be  good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves
"If you aspire to be a good conversationalist, be an attentive listener"
"Remember that the man you are talking to is a hundred times more interested in himself and his wants and his problems than he is in you and your problems"

Sometimes people just talk too much about themselves. But we must be patient and think why they do it. Maybe they just cannot take it themselves and need someone to talk to about it. It may not mean a lot to us, but it can mean a lot to other people to us to just sit back and listen. Also we personally do not like it when when we open up to some people and they are not listening to us. This can make us feel bad. We never know how much it will mean to the person and how much they will value it. This is a good way to show someone our care and our interest. After this a person will remember us and will know we care. This to consider someone a valuable friend.

I will apply this by trying to be comprehensive toward others and listening to them.





5) Talk In Terms of the other man's interest
" The royal need to a man's heart is to talk to him about the things he

To make a better conversation we can talk about the things that other people have interested on. In this way they will feel more comfortable when talking. This will show that we have interest in them as well. We have many interests as individuals to talk about. As we talk about the interests of others we possibly will find common interests. This is a great way to make a special bonding. Even if it is not about ourselves we can try to be good listeners. This will likely make the other person interested in us. Also this is a good way to make the other person like us. Its a good way into their heart, People  have a natural need to talk and interact with others.

I will apply this by talking to other people, and as I do talk about their interests

6) Make the other person feel important- and do it sincerely
"The desire to be important is the deepest urge in human nature" ( John Devey) " helping people feel important and appreciated works"

We can all do small simple things that will help someone feel important. We ourselves like to feel important that is why we should understand if others like to feel important as well. By just listening to someone we can show them that they matter. When someone is shown no importance they can  feel bad and irrelevant. Which is not true because everyone matters. When we get sad we want someone to be there for us. That person can make us feel a little better and somehow more important. Some people have a very low self esteem and that is why why can show them importance. We can focus on them and their interests. We don't have to give materials to make someone feel important, it can be something as simple as our attention.

I will apply this by knowing that we like to feel important and trying to make other people feel so.

Final Reflection: I think that these six attitudes are very useful. Socializing and making friends is a part of life. Showing that you care about other people is an important part of this process. It is also good to positively influence them the way someone else has done to us. We can show interest by remembering minor details. Also, it is important to remember people's names.  When we want someone to feel important we must  do it in an honest manner. knowing within ourselves that everyone is important. Also, it this is for you to sit back and listen to the things that others have to say                                                                                                                                                                           say By doing this we can show genuine .i nterest on other people that are not ourselves.

Why I follow Jesus

I think that every day spent doing what is right, and His teachings is a day well spent. Life has many things that can make us happy , but at the end all those things will pass because they are all vain. Money or fame and popularity will not be forever. But the happiness and the fulfillment one gets when we dedicate life to the right things will be uncomparable. Sometimes we do not have to see things to believe in them, things come by feeling and joy as well. I know that I am never alone and  His love never leaves my side. He strengthens me and inspires me everyday and every second. He is my teacher my friend my all.

Free Lance Post 

I think that this week will be a great week. I am very exited about many upcoming things. On the weekend I will get to rest and go to church, which is always exciting, because time spent serving God is the best time spent. In addition, I will also get to learn more about the scriptures and the teachings of Jesus which are beautiful. There is also Bible club on Thursday. Throughout the week I plan to go to practice and also to practice at home. I will try to make extra time to practice after practice. I plan to start this new week with a good attitude, and not let bad things drag me down. I also am planning to join a new club today during lunch, to share time and get to know new kids. During this week I plan to improve spiritually, physically, and mentally. I feel blessed and good. Although not everything goes as I want it to go, it is good because it is part of life. It is better to trust God's plan, and not trust my own understanding,

peak performance principles


"The Six Attitudes Of High Achievers"

 Make no small plans

People that make small plans achieve small accomplishments. You will work as hard as you planned, so if u make big plans you will work big tome and achieve big. For example, athletes that work hard make big plans for training. When they train hard, then they are more likely to win. Also, we do not want to make small plans on other things. We can make big plans on our everyday things. It is also important that we have a good and positive attitude on the plans that we make. We must continue and not work to be better than everyone else, but instead to be a better version of ourselves everyday. We should make big plans to win big. Our dreams are just as big as our plans to achieve them.

"Your dreams are just as big as your plans"




2) Do What They Fear

Fear can stop us from doing many things. We all have fears. Some of the fears which we should conquer. We should not learn from other people's fears and fear the same thing. Even if we are afraid we should be brave and do something that we or others are afraid of. Fear will stop us from goals if we do not learn to conquer it. Then we will look back and be disappointed because we were afraid to do something we should have done. For example if someone is afraid to go to basketball practice because it is to hard then we must not be scared ourselves and we should go face the challenge. The practice will eventually make you better and later you will not regret it. To achieve our goals we must first overcome many obstacles. One of those obstacles is fear. We should understand that fear cannot hols us back forever.

" Fear is just as fierce as you let it be"

  "The way we prepare will determine performance"

3.) Are willing to prepare
Preparation is very important because you cant just rush to something expecting to be the best. We must be determined to accomplish something and prepare for it. Preparation is planning ahead. For example, if you want to be a basketball player you have to train ahead. We train to get better every time and improve ourselves. That is preparation. Preparing is not really the most exiting part of something, but it is very crucial. The way you prepared for something can determine how we do on whatever we were expecting to do.  It is good to prepare as soon as we can and not leave things for later, It  is better to prepare when we can so we don't have to worry about it later. 

4)Are Willing to Risk Failure
Failure is most of the times in the process of winning. It is something that we must not fear because it will make us better.Sometime when we fail we will be inspired to face even bigger challenges and to improve our selves. By failing we will see our weaknesses and improve on them. We must not let failure bring us down, but inspire us to do better. Many of the people that we see succeed such as athletes have failed before. We will not always win at everything we do. 
Failure can be a teacher. We can use our failures in a positive way to win and improve. For example, if a team looses a basketball game, and they do not let that drag them down. Instead they review what they did wrong and work on it to improve it. They put effort to practice so they can be better prepared the next time around.


  I will apply this because I admit that many times I let failure drag me down and mess with my attitude. Now, I will understand that failure is also a part of winning.I will have a good attitude.   "We can loose a battle, but win the war"

5) Are Teachable 

We can always have something to learn. It is not okay to think that we already know everything and to refuse to learn. Some people might know something we do not. When someone tries to help us we must not be rude and cut them off. For example, if your coach tells you that you are doing something wrong, then you should not get mad and walk away. Instead, we must listen to them explain how to do it correctly.The thing that you were corrected on and you learned might
make the difference later on between winning or losing a game.We can show people that we are willing to learn by paying attention and showing effort. By learning new things we can simply get better. That is why we need to be teachable, by staying humble. We can also help someone once we know how to do something. So we should be willing and exited to learn. We must not under estimate a person and think that they cannot teach us anything.



"A day without learning is a day wasted"

 I will apply this to myself by humbly accepting to learn. By not getting angry and listening.







6) Have heart 
To be extra good at something you must have heart. The passion to improve everyday at something you like. If you do something just because you are forced then you will most likely not be the best you can be. Also if you have heart it will not feel like a duty anymore but the time spending getting better at something will start to be enjoyable. It is important to have heart and put our minds on a certain goal. Even if we do not enjoy the process of meeting a goal we can have heart and put effort towards the goal. We must not only have heart to want something but to work hard for it. For example many of the athletes we see today have heart for what they do. That leads them to practice harder and get better. But it is not only sports we should have heart in, but in other things. Such as personal things.

I will apply this personally by putting hear in the things I like doing.

 "Without heart the passion for something disappears"

High achievers must overcome many obstacles. To overcome the many obstacles there are certain attitudes that we need to have. In order to meet our goals we must have plans and work on them everyday to improve. We must not be afraid of what others fear but instead take the initiative to do better. Also, we must be willing to prepare and put on hard work. We must be ready and have the willingness to accept, overcome, and learn from failure. In addition we must be willing to learn and have the desire to improve. Lastly, we must have heart and passion for our goals.
