“He listens well who takes notes.”

Dante Alighieri

I think that this statement is true. To take notes, you must listen, and if you are listening, you are paying attention. You have to be a good listener to stay on top of what you have to write down. You have to write down many notes on what the subject might be so always pay attention. For example, when you hear or see what your father or mother does and you know what they did was a right thing, then you start to take down notes. It might not be on paper, but it can be in your mind. Telling you how to choose the right correctly.

Balancing High School and Part-Time Work

Balancing High School and Part-Time Work

Part 1

http://www.collegeboard.com/student/plan/high-school/45266.html

Like many high school students, you may want—or need—to work part time. Working takes a lot of time and energy, though, so before getting a job, make sure that you think about your ability to handle both work and your education.

Important Considerations

You have to weigh a number of factors when deciding whether to take on a part-time job. It’s important to get as much information as possible, so you can figure out what choice makes the most sense for you.

Schedule a meeting with your school counselor to discuss he idea of working. Talk to your counselor about why you want to work and what type of position you’re seeking.

Choose The Right!!!

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

Theodore Roosevelt

I think that Theodore is correct. He couldn’t have put it better. When you are deciding what to do, especially if it is a life changing decision, the best thing to choose is the right thing. For example if you are making a decision whether or not to go to a college or university, then you should make the right decision. And that decision is for you to go to a college or university. This quote also applies for any little small thing as well, whether it’s deciding to go a party or deciding whether or not to drink or smoke. Always choose the right thing to do when making a decision.

Reflection

I felt really inspired by watching that video. It says many things about how to be the best person that you can. It tells you to be, do, and live your best that you can. It tells you what you can do to make your life a better one. A way to always choose the right, a way to always feel good about yourself, which is what you should be doing every day. Each day you have a new window of opportunity and it is up to you to decide what to do with it, a clean slate. This video tells you to make the right choices and Walk the Talk.

“Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his choices.”

-Albert A. Montapert

I think that this is very true. You can never escape your consequences; they might be good or bad, but you will never escape them. If you choose the right, then great consequences will come forth to you and if you choose the wrong then some bad consequences will come to you. For example, if you ditch a class or don’t turn in an assignment, your grade will start to go down as a consequence. If you are on class every day and turn in all of the assignments, then you will receive a good grade, a positive consequence. It’s all up to you, really. Your decisions determine your destiny.

“The only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits. Good habits are the key to all success. Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure. Thus, the first law I will obey, which precedeth all others is—‘I will form good habits and become their slaves.’ ”

Og Mandino

This quote is very true. There are many reasons why people either have success or failure, and it mostly relies on the habits that they possess. For example, someone might start with the habits of stealing things from stores and their habit will catch up to them when they get caught. Or, someone who, from the start, helps others as a habit will continue doing this and will soon be on their way to the path of success. Also, the law that he talks about is what you should do. Start a good habit and you will soon fall a slave to it, doing it whenever you can without even realizing it. Be the good habits slave, not the bad one.

“Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man’s doing but my own. I am the force.”

Elaine Maxwell

I agree with this statement. No one in the world can determine if you will succeed or fail, it is what you do, your own force. No one can tell you that you won’t do it, or that they are going to do whatever is possible so you don’t succeed. It all comes down to you. You are your own force, you are the one who determines what you will do in the future or what you’ll do in life. Depending on how much force you are able or are willing to put into it, then that will determine where and how far you will be able to go in life. You are the force.

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”

Henry David Thoreau

 

This statement is true. There is no bad investment in choosing the right. It can never fail you. When you invest on choosing the right, you gain a lot of profit from it, a lot of good comes out of it. You might feel better or might have a nice experience doing what you were doing. Also, it never fails you because it can never go bad. It can’t crash or drop in its value, it always stays the same. This investment will always take you far every day, and make you feel better about everything.

“My strength is as the strength of ten because my heart is pure.”

Alfred, Lord Tennyson

This statement is great. This shows you what you really are when you do good things. Since he is pure of heart, meaning that he has never done anything bad and has stayed on the right path, he is stronger than others because of his pureness. He is better than others too, because of what he is able to do. He has the strength of ten because of what he has achieved and because of what kind of person he is. I think everyone should be like this, with a pure heart, mind, body, and soul. This is a great statement that everyone should see. c:

“Seek to do good and you will find that happiness will run after you.”

James Freeman Clarke

 

I agree with this statement. When you start to do good, or seek to do it, then happiness will chase after you. When you do good, you feel happy, and when you do bad you feel bad. For example, if you do drugs then you will are doing bad things. Then bad feeling will chase after you. When you don’t do drugs and choose the right, then you don’t feel sick and the happiness will chase after you. Another example I can say is when you decide to help people. You will feel good and stay feeling good for a period of time. On the other hand, when you start to not help people and actually go against them, then you will see that bad things will start chasing you. When you chase after the good things, then good things will come back to chase you too. (:

“There is no set path, just follow your heart.”

Anon

 

I agree with this statement. There is no set path which means that your choices determine you future destiny. If you make bad choices in life then you will be following the bad path in life and if you make the right choices then you will be following the right path. It all depends on what your heart tells you. Your heart will know what is right and wrong for you and depending on who you are then that will determine what path you take. Just follow your heart. (:
