oh gosh
i liked the fact that the teacher started doing his job even though he might have stepped a mile over the limit a couple times. i didnt like being singled out. i cannot say anything to improve this class because atleast a hundred students will submit this evaluation. i do read my life planning goals journal. i am a ctr person in my own way and i dont need anybody to tell me how to act. i learned sometimes youre gonna have to face your enemies and shut up. i will always remember how i was singled out and didnt do anything about it.

10 qualities of a winner
The Psychology of Winning
Denis Waitley
The 10 Qualities of a Total Winner
👆☝
Quality 1: Positive Self-Expectancy "Life is a self fulfilling prophecy. True winners go into every event expecting to win."
If you don't believe that you can do something then you most likely wont be able to do it. you have to have a positive outlook on things so you can accomplish things that you have faith that you can accomplish. a true winner knows they have a chance of winning and acts on that feeling to win. expecting to always win is better than expecting to always loose because when your hopes are down you are not as motivated to do your best.
Quality 2: Positive Self-Motivation
"True winners dig deep and find motivation inside themselves to get through that tough task or to learn a new skill."
Self motivation is the act of you telling yourself you can achieve any goal you have. being positive is being like happy and stuff if you put that together you get positive self motivation. When you find your own motivation within your self you become more willing to do things and treat work like fun instead of work. when you treat work like work you are not motivated to do it because it becomes some thing that you would rather not do.
True winners are confident and view themselves as competent, valuable human beings.
This must mean that you should believe in yourself to achieve greatness and then you will find pride in achieving your goals.
Quality 4: Positive Self-Direction
You gotta have direction if you are going to go anywhere. True winners know where they are going. Their sense of direction comes from the self and not from outside influences like parents or friends.
i guess you can say this quote/statement is saying you should know what your goal is. so i have decided that my goal is to get better at guitar. and play johnny b. goode. if not i would at least like to play a song with a difficult/mesmerizing guitar solo. i have seen many interviews people do with guitarist like slash. and most of them say the same thing. they have never been in a music class. or have been in music theory. and so with music theory or without the riffs/solos they play are simple scales. they basically choose a scale and mess around with it. like dave grohl. drummer of nirvana and one of the founders of Foo Fighters. he said he had never took a music class or has ever had drums. he said he would simply imagine playing drums.
Quality 5: Positive Self-Control
Total winners can sacrifice immediate pleasure for a gain in the future. Delayed gratification is of immense value in reaching your goals.
self control in my point of view is being able to control yourself. then there are others with no self control. i believe i cannot control myself. because i get mad easily and yeah.
Quality 6: Positive Self-Discipline
You have to discipline yourself or else someone else will discipline you into doing what they want you to do. Total winners have the power to discipline and take control of their lives.

Quality 7: Positive Self-Esteem
Your mood and outlook on life affect the way you see the world and how you interact in it. Total winners are positive, powerful people who make people feel good and provide a good vibe to those around him/her.
Quality 8: Positive Self-Dimension
Total winners like in the present. They know that now is all there is. They don’t get caught up in the past or worry about the future. They simply handle the business that they can handle which is the stuff going on today, now.

Quality 9: Positive Self-Awareness
Total winners are aware of their power. They understand that they can be anything with enough effort and determination.
"when life gives you lemons, make lemonade."
Quality 10: Positive Action
Total winners take positive action in their business and with their friends and family. They are uplifting and motivating individuals who inspire the best from themselves and others.
what is positive action. from my guess positive means good action means well action so a positive action is something good you do. other than that i don't know what it is. but i know who does. mr.haymore knows what this means. as a great teacher and philosopher.
That's our next cover^^

Pyramid of SUCCESS
The pyramid of success
~John Wooden
Instructions:
- Create a new post-The Pyramid of Success
- Write each new block in Pyramid of Success post
- Write a reflection paragraph (at least 12 sentences) about each new block. Include an example of that new block
- Research, find, and insert a quote about this new block
- Research, find, and insert a picture depicting this new block
- Write how you will apply this new block in your own life
Block 1: Industriousness
"There is no substitute for work. Worthwhile results come from hard work and careful planning."
Hard work pays off. in my opinion this quote is trying to say. i shall work harder and be more motivated. less un enthusiastic. i'm sick and my head really hurts. normally i would have something to say but i am really sick i sound like a dying old dog. you don't know the pain my throat is feeling right now. i have football practice after school and my legs still hurt from Friday. honestly i am working hard because i came to school. and i plan on staying for my classes and practice. my nose is burning because of how many times I've wiped it with my sweater. i feel really light headed. but a true CTR student stays in class no matter what. i cannot believe how many sick people are here at school. and how little the teacher cares about us. i will apply this block in my life by going to practice everyday. and pushing my body to the limit.
Block 2: Enthusiasm
"It is the engine that powers all blocks of the Pyramid. It is why I chose Industriousness and Enthusiasm as the cornerstones of my Pyramid of Success. It is where everything begins."
it seems like i went home early
Block 3: Friendship
"Comes from mutual esteem, respect and devotion. Like marriage it must not be taken for granted but requires a joint effort."
This block means you should always try hard so you won't lose what you worked for. my parents aren't together anymore. i guess you can say this is one of the reasons. it's been rough for my siblings and i. we have to choose were we're going to sleep whether with my mom or my dad. But i know being a CTR student will bring me more friends and a bright day. So recently my friend "Giovanny Leon" has left to Florida i'm not sure if they're going to stay there or not. but for i stay in school alone.
Block 4: Loyalty
"To yourself and to all those depending upon you. Keep your self-respect."
i think this is going more into the fact that you should be able to say no besides your friend without any repercussions. personally a friend that understands what no is. is a friend that is good to be around. loyalty is key in a relationship. being true to one another will show your companion how you are willing to go the extra mile for her/him. my parents had a lot of problems and this was one of them. luckily i know the problem and how to prevent it from happening to me. today feels like a good day i get to stay at my dads house. we have an hour of study hall and an hour of weights for football. and i get to play my guitar and bass and which ever other instrument i have in my garage. I recently learned how to play PLUG IN BABY by muse. so that was entertaining but i wanna go home and learn PSYCHO by muse on the bass. so yeah... This is my way of expressing feeling and doing my work.
Block 5: Cooperation
"With all levels of your co-workers. Listen if you want to be heard. Be interested in finding the best way, not in having your own way. "
my definition of cooperation is putting in your part in any task. in a relationship you should be willing to go that extra mile even if you guys met half way. in a project everyone should help and share information that can help for the project. it is hard to do something if someone wont cooperate. when you get pulled over by a police it is well known to cooperate instead of getting shot by a rookie. most of the times when people get shot its because a rookie over reacts. talk about rookies and guns and less acknowledged people. i dont think teachers should be able to carry guns. i feel like a teacher would pull up in the quad and ask if you've done your homework while rubbing his/her gun on their head. but in the end we are all human and make mistakes and that's why the Florida school shooter should go to jail.
Block 6: Ambition (For noble goals)
ambition in my words would be like thriving for something. looking foward to success. something like that. in the dictionary it is a desire to achieve. noble is like showing high morals/fine personal qualities. so noble goals would be like setting a goal to be noble. i dont know. this is lowkey confusing. it doesnt go into detail like the other quotes. it doesnt specify so in general just be your self. if you can believe you can achieve. "the sun is gone, but i have a light" ~ kurt cobain "Woman are like guitars, you can never get them right."~ slash the only thing i can say is go listen to tupac "my ambitions as a rider" since we're talking about ambitions. rappers from the old days can be inspirational. like Eminem he would go thru the dictionary and rhyme words. just like tupac.
Block 2: Enthusiasm
"It is the engine that powers all blocks of the Pyramid. It is why I chose Industriousness and Enthusiasm as the cornerstones of my Pyramid of Success. It is where everything begins."
it seems like i went home early

Block 7: Self-Control
"Practice self-discipline and keep emotions under control. Good judgement and common sense are essential."
umm. in my point of humanly view i think this means that people should be self aware about themselves. by being self-fish. i dont think i always think about others before my self. i feel like people got more to offer than me like i only offer attention, support, the truth and music. while others work for people like their families. it might just be me mixing the words up in my head. but i guess we'll never really know whats wrong with me. i feel like everyone has problems. like from the smallest atom/cell to god himself. we were all born differnet with different tallents. with different hair, eye color, and charcteristics. no one is really perfect you can be the richest person and be married and have kids but deep inside you're lonely and heartbroken. because no sees you as you. no one really knows you. for christmas i got an apple watch from my mom it was a series 3 apple watch. i didnt really want it but i apreciated the gift. i got with my dad. and he told me "i know its not much but i saw it and i thought you might like it." it a slim shady lp album disc. that gift was worth more than anthing else. it really is the thought that counts. i can go on for days of how happy i was with the disc and how many times i played it over and over again. it made all my problems go away. like if i was the only one here and no one could stop me from doing whatever i want.

^-really true
Block 8: Alertness
"Be observing constantly. Stay open-minded. Be eager to learn and improve."
i think this means that you should welcome new things into your life. there is no harm in trying something new. you may never know what waits for you in the pile of things you had never tried. i never really thought i'll ever play the guitar as i do now. in my perspective i'm pretty beast. i never thought i would join football. but there i am. i never thought i would play/own so many instruments yet here i am. learning how to play the drums, shredding the guitar, and bumping the bass. not only that but my dad is always encouraging me to learn a new language. i was studying Portuguese for a while but i stopped because i had too much on my plate. but i'm going to try again. this was my pyramid of success block 8.
Block 9: Initiative
"Cultivate the ability to make decisions and think alone. Do not be afraid of failure, but learn from it."
failure is something we go through once in a while. some people more than others. my dad once told me "to fail, doesn't mean to lose, it means you should learn from that experience and do it better." i was bullied from first grade all through eighth grade. i had learned if i don't try i wont fail. and i wont get laughed at because i didn't do it right or something. once i got into high school my mom told me "you have to join a sport." at the beginning i didn't think much of it. i tried soccer and it didn't work out for me there was too many @-holes. i don't like basketball and at the time everyone made it seem like football was really hard and they were strict on the try outs. so the only sports left were the swim team, and wrestling. Erik the kid that told me to join told me i should go see them practice so i can decide if i like it or not. i told myself, "i am not going to go see i'm going to get there ready for practice. and so i did. the first day i was dying of how hard the practice was. everyone made it look easy. and no matter what they tell you i went through the same practice as them we went to pretty much the same matches together and i stayed off season for tournaments. to me what counts is that i stayed all season and off season. i always made weight. i always worked out and i supported them but i can see "being too nice can get you fucked over 100% of the time." and if you ask me what i am doing at the moment is football and i'm trying even harder to prove that shitty coach and his disciples that they have no right to tell me i was trash cuz i'm gonna get bigger and stronger and soon i'll pick on them.
Block 10: Intentness
"Set a realistic goal. Concentrate on its achievement by resisting all temptations and being determined and persistent."
Everyday we are tempted to make the wrong choice. not only do some of us "Choose the Wrong" but we don't reflect upon our actions. the way i see it we are on a scale of good and bad choices. we decide which side weighs more. if we do bad choices all the time the left is going to weigh more. doing something right can give you self respect. at least that's how i see it. when i do something good i take pride in myself because out of all these people i was the only one kind enough to help. i believe we are all here for a significant reason. everyday i try to figure out what it can be for me. could it be i'm destined to be in a band. or in college playing football. or out of school and working with my dad. or do i have no place.
Block 11: Sincerity (keeps friends)
this quote is to not be a hypocrite. a hypocrite for me is like setting a rule no one should break but at the end you break it yourself. if i say screaming in the library is prohibited and i scream that makes me a hypocrite. it is also the virtue of one who communicates and acts in accordance with their feelings, beliefs, thoughts, and desires. it is also the quality of being free from pretense, deceit, or hypocrisy. so yesterday i got football gloves and a new mouth gaurd. i was at the park and i got them dirty. i dont know why but they dont have the same grip now. but thanks to this desktop i researched how to keep my gloves clean and sticky (with a lot of grip).
Block 12: Adaptability (to any situation)
In my biology book i read in order for species to survive they need to adapt to changes in the weather and their surroundings. if you are able to adapt with what is occurring then you are most likely able to survive. Adaptation can be as little from adjusting to rules up to a divorce or a death. i have learn to adapt in my moms house when certain people are over. my parents will never be the same and i know that. but at least i get to see both of them. i am one of those people that believe after a break up we shouldn't say anything bad about them because in a point of our lives we liked each other and didn't care about our flaws. Our flaws is what makes us unique. i never try to be perfect. i admit i dont like Ms. Dev she says if we dont like her we should "Fake it til we make it." but im going to say true to myself and plainly not like her.
Block 13: Condition
"Mental-Moral-Physical. Rest, exercise and diet must be considered. Moderation must be practiced. Dissipation must be eliminated."
i feel this explains what i need to do. because i haven't been going to practice and in my head i think/know that i am the weakest, weirdest, and the most clueless one there. the coach would run a play and i dont know what to do i get stuck between my problems, schoolwork, and the plays that there are times i can't even talk right. i know it is not good to avoid a problem but i try not to get into any problems. so if you walk in to the dining room and push me and tell me to get off the seat. i most likely will and if you're pushing your luck you might get a black eye. i have a lot of problems and mental problems. i can be very passive and then be aggressive. i'm like a dog that has never been taught how to love but has only been taught to protect, attack, and have standards. by standards i mean limits to who and where to fight. i have no friends that i really talk to in football and Enrique left. i am stuck there by myself.
✌✌^^>>
Block 14: Skill
"A knowledge of and the ability to properly and quickly execute the fundamentals. Be prepared and cover every little detail."
i dont know what the quote has to do with "skill" skill to me is a set of special actions people have. and they are called "skill sets" my skill sets is endurance and i don't break under pressure. but yeah so i will now attempt to show you guys my lyrics.
"They try to make me non-generic
But it's in my genetics
To believe
To believe that my prayers/dreams would come true
The only words i know is believe and achieve
Although sometimes your day can go South
It was a day that turned into a year
Never knowing when this is going to stop
I sit in my garage with a broken compass
While my drunken uncle speaks about his problems
I see the compass and north points at me
Trying to follow the compass
Leading me in circles
In my sleep i think about why it would point at me
When my dad says "you choose how you live your life"
^i don't know it doesn't really rhyme
Block 15: Team Spirit
"A genuine consideration for others. An eagerness to sacrifice personal interests of glory for the welfare of all."
i do not know what this is trying to say but i can try to pretend to know. i think this is talking about being a team. like the justice league and the teen titans. yes they are strong but they are stronger together. so like any person i think "team spirit" is like school spirit when you dress with school uniform and beanies and scarves. "representing" so team spirit must be wearing your jersey/shirt/hat/singlet. in the end of it all we are all lonely in this cruel place called earth.
#aliens attack?
Block 16: Honesty (in thought and action)
"Honesty is the best policy." (Ben Franklin)
Every/Any relationship should be honest with one another. there are so many things that can go wrong without honesty. But you could go far if you are honest. if you cheated on someone/something you should face the facts that there are repercussions to your actions. " for every good there is a bad." <this quote doesn't really apply to everything we go through in life. no one is perfect and i know that because i am not. i have learned to forgive and forget. in health class my freshman year i learned that there are stages of grief. i have witnessed these stages upfront. at the end of the day no one can help you as much as yourself.
Block 17: Resourcefulness (proper judgment)
“Make the most out of what you have.” (Anonymous)
"If you have a dream, if you have something you've always wanted to do, look within yourself because that is where resourcefulness resides; and go for it. (Jennifer Witterick)
there's many songs out there. but is there really a song you can hear while hitting a bong, or as simple as walking a dog. glaring at the air as if you cared. clearing a path that's full of wrath. never knowing when you'll stop tearing the pain away. it's a stain after using his name in vein. any sin would make this man cringe. so stay home and binge. it's hurting your bones to see all these people without homes or people to love. like a dove representing peace.
Block 18: Poise
"Just being yourself. Being at ease in any situation."
the definition i found on poise was "graceful and elegant bearing in a person." so i think this quote means that by being yourself you are making life less complicated. atleast that's how i see this quote. today is the day that we're gonna throw it back to you. somehow i barely realised that i want meant for you. i don't believe that anybody feels the way i do about you now.
Block 19: Confidence
"Thorough preparation breeds confidence" Gerald Bell in "The Carolina Way"
Confidence is basically to have the"huevos" to talk in front of a croud. it is being sure that you're right. Confidence can bring you a lot of good things to life.
Seven Signs of a Confident person ↷
Reliability is the quality of being trustworthy. Or of performing consistently well. It creates respect because you are trusted and a hard worker. so yeah.
Block 21: Fight (determined effort)
Block 22: Competitive Greatness
" Be at your best when your best is needed. Enjoyment of a difficult challenge."
So everyone is saying wrestling isn't a sport. in my point of view it is a sport. Because if it wasnt a sport than that makes the swim team is not sport. From what i know it is an individual sport. like you get your points and at the end you add up everyones points. thats a reason why i like wrestling all you have to do is worry about yourself.
< The picture you asked me for
Block 23: Integrity (purity of intention)
"Practice self-discipline and keep emotions under control. Good judgement and common sense are essential."
umm. in my point of humanly view i think this means that people should be self aware about themselves. by being self-fish. i dont think i always think about others before my self. i feel like people got more to offer than me like i only offer attention, support, the truth and music. while others work for people like their families. it might just be me mixing the words up in my head. but i guess we'll never really know whats wrong with me. i feel like everyone has problems. like from the smallest atom/cell to god himself. we were all born differnet with different tallents. with different hair, eye color, and charcteristics. no one is really perfect you can be the richest person and be married and have kids but deep inside you're lonely and heartbroken. because no sees you as you. no one really knows you. for christmas i got an apple watch from my mom it was a series 3 apple watch. i didnt really want it but i apreciated the gift. i got with my dad. and he told me "i know its not much but i saw it and i thought you might like it." it a slim shady lp album disc. that gift was worth more than anthing else. it really is the thought that counts. i can go on for days of how happy i was with the disc and how many times i played it over and over again. it made all my problems go away. like if i was the only one here and no one could stop me from doing whatever i want.

In my biology book i read in order for species to survive they need to adapt to changes in the weather and their surroundings. if you are able to adapt with what is occurring then you are most likely able to survive. Adaptation can be as little from adjusting to rules up to a divorce or a death. i have learn to adapt in my moms house when certain people are over. my parents will never be the same and i know that. but at least i get to see both of them. i am one of those people that believe after a break up we shouldn't say anything bad about them because in a point of our lives we liked each other and didn't care about our flaws. Our flaws is what makes us unique. i never try to be perfect. i admit i dont like Ms. Dev she says if we dont like her we should "Fake it til we make it." but im going to say true to myself and plainly not like her.
"Mental-Moral-Physical. Rest, exercise and diet must be considered. Moderation must be practiced. Dissipation must be eliminated."
i feel this explains what i need to do. because i haven't been going to practice and in my head i think/know that i am the weakest, weirdest, and the most clueless one there. the coach would run a play and i dont know what to do i get stuck between my problems, schoolwork, and the plays that there are times i can't even talk right. i know it is not good to avoid a problem but i try not to get into any problems. so if you walk in to the dining room and push me and tell me to get off the seat. i most likely will and if you're pushing your luck you might get a black eye. i have a lot of problems and mental problems. i can be very passive and then be aggressive. i'm like a dog that has never been taught how to love but has only been taught to protect, attack, and have standards. by standards i mean limits to who and where to fight. i have no friends that i really talk to in football and Enrique left. i am stuck there by myself.
Block 14: Skill
"A knowledge of and the ability to properly and quickly execute the fundamentals. Be prepared and cover every little detail."
i dont know what the quote has to do with "skill" skill to me is a set of special actions people have. and they are called "skill sets" my skill sets is endurance and i don't break under pressure. but yeah so i will now attempt to show you guys my lyrics.
"They try to make me non-generic
But it's in my genetics
To believe
To believe that my prayers/dreams would come true
The only words i know is believe and achieve
Although sometimes your day can go South
It was a day that turned into a year
Never knowing when this is going to stop
I sit in my garage with a broken compass
While my drunken uncle speaks about his problems
I see the compass and north points at me
Trying to follow the compass
Leading me in circles
In my sleep i think about why it would point at me
When my dad says "you choose how you live your life"
^i don't know it doesn't really rhyme
Block 15: Team Spirit
"A genuine consideration for others. An eagerness to sacrifice personal interests of glory for the welfare of all."
i do not know what this is trying to say but i can try to pretend to know. i think this is talking about being a team. like the justice league and the teen titans. yes they are strong but they are stronger together. so like any person i think "team spirit" is like school spirit when you dress with school uniform and beanies and scarves. "representing" so team spirit must be wearing your jersey/shirt/hat/singlet. in the end of it all we are all lonely in this cruel place called earth.
#aliens attack?
"Honesty is the best policy." (Ben Franklin)
Every/Any relationship should be honest with one another. there are so many things that can go wrong without honesty. But you could go far if you are honest. if you cheated on someone/something you should face the facts that there are repercussions to your actions. " for every good there is a bad." <this quote doesn't really apply to everything we go through in life. no one is perfect and i know that because i am not. i have learned to forgive and forget. in health class my freshman year i learned that there are stages of grief. i have witnessed these stages upfront. at the end of the day no one can help you as much as yourself.
Block 17: Resourcefulness (proper judgment)
“Make the most out of what you have.” (Anonymous)
"If you have a dream, if you have something you've always wanted to do, look within yourself because that is where resourcefulness resides; and go for it. (Jennifer Witterick)
there's many songs out there. but is there really a song you can hear while hitting a bong, or as simple as walking a dog. glaring at the air as if you cared. clearing a path that's full of wrath. never knowing when you'll stop tearing the pain away. it's a stain after using his name in vein. any sin would make this man cringe. so stay home and binge. it's hurting your bones to see all these people without homes or people to love. like a dove representing peace.
Block 18: Poise
"Just being yourself. Being at ease in any situation."
the definition i found on poise was "graceful and elegant bearing in a person." so i think this quote means that by being yourself you are making life less complicated. atleast that's how i see this quote. today is the day that we're gonna throw it back to you. somehow i barely realised that i want meant for you. i don't believe that anybody feels the way i do about you now.
Block 19: Confidence
"Thorough preparation breeds confidence" Gerald Bell in "The Carolina Way"
Confidence is basically to have the"huevos" to talk in front of a croud. it is being sure that you're right. Confidence can bring you a lot of good things to life.
Seven Signs of a Confident person ↷
- Confident people believe they can
- there is no obstacle too high for them
- Have responsibilities
- are most loved
- boring
- weird
- not normal
Reliability is the quality of being trustworthy. Or of performing consistently well. It creates respect because you are trusted and a hard worker. so yeah.
Block 21: Fight (determined effort)
Fighting can bring you many things starting with consequences. it can bring you respect but there are other ways to get respect. there is never really a purpose for a fight unless you are defending yourself. then its a different thing. i remember when i fought oscar he brought all his friends (20 people) along with him and once everyone jumped in to fight he backed away and a truck came to pick him up like really dude. he got in the car faster than starving prostitute.
" Be at your best when your best is needed. Enjoyment of a difficult challenge."
So everyone is saying wrestling isn't a sport. in my point of view it is a sport. Because if it wasnt a sport than that makes the swim team is not sport. From what i know it is an individual sport. like you get your points and at the end you add up everyones points. thats a reason why i like wrestling all you have to do is worry about yourself.
< The picture you asked me forBlock 23: Integrity (purity of intention)
i don't know what integrity is. all i know is that Tuesday is better than any Monday. lighting up a tree to be free of unneeded feelings. feeling like you're ten feet tall. not knowing if you're scared or having fun you party until you hear yourself fall. waking up you realize you cannot escape reality. It all happened so swift now you beg for more. it fills the missing piece in your heart and you don't wanna let go. predicting you're addicted not knowing where to turn. so you put on your mask and pretend life is just a dream...
Block 24: Faith (through prayer)
Believe and Achieve. Positive belief.
Faith believing in something with high power. the way i see it believing in a better place after death. i like to think once we're dead there is no after life or heaven. i don't know what there is. i have learned that you cannot be disappointed if you never expect much.
Block 25: Patience (good things take time)
in this block it is trying to say with patience good thing will come. i don't disagree completely that good things come because most of the time good things do come. i was patient enough to see infinity war but thank the lord Einstein i waited because the wait was worth the hour waiting in a line to see the premiere. 
FINAL REFLECTION:
Write one final reflection, at least 25 sentences or 300 words, on the 25 blocks of the Pyramid of Success. Include this reflection at the end of your Pyramid of Success post. Include a picture or two.
I have learned a lot of things from these 25 blocks. not only have i wasted my time because none of this is used in my life. just like geometry none of this is applied to me. i dont plan to go to college. and i dont believe of graduating high school. not only have the teachers made things hard but what we do here such as the IDP. i have been stressed for days because of it and we're not even close to the actual presentation. i have thought very deeply about moving schools just because of the teachers. there are the teachers that actually help such as Mr.Martinez and there are teachers like Ms.Dev talking about dogs and then handing us tests on things that are irrelevant to dogs expecting us to pass. i am failing about 3-4 of my classes the only thing that has me at a 2.0 is p.e and jazz band. and apparently i cant take it again unless i am willing to sign up as a t.a and help the students which i dont want to do. at this point Hp high school doesnt seem like a bad choice. I am most certain in the next 2 years here i will be told that i will be kicked out because of my attendance and because of my grades. i'm not even passing spanish and Loza gives us the answers at the end. i am certain if i move schools that wont fix anything. i do not know what to do i am thinking of so many things on a daily basis every second i have something new to worry about.

👽💀💤💣💔
i don't have much to say. iv'e been writing songs on my own. i sleep a lot. i can't seem to get my computer to work anymore. so i record everything i play on a separate phone. i feel so empty inside. i don't know whats going on. all i'm thinking is "why did this happen to me" there is no way to explain how i feel inside. no one has gone through the pain that i am in. if my pain can be expressed through music. it would be like going from a G power chord to a B7 chord in a fast beat when you're barely beginning to learn. i am certain of failure every single day. i know i am not going to college. i probably won't even graduate high school. these days have been tough. i am certain of death before the age of 30. i am certain my band won' t be good. i am a very negative person and think about failure before success. i don't need a therapist to make me answer my own problems. all a therapists does is ask you questions until you answer what is wrong with you. i know what's wrong with me. i just don't want to tell no one. i have this urge to be hurt. the feeling of pain and seeking danger/near death experiences are the only things making me feel alive. there is no reason to live. there is no one hoping i lie. all around me are a bunch of people that despise me because i am able to be who i am. i don't care if people don't like me. i will not act like another person to make friends. either people like me because of who i am or they don't. i am what they call a "real" friend. i can name 30 fake friends in this class and in other classes.

10 keys to personal power
Key 1: Clarity
"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come your way. The harder you work, the better you get."
I think this quote means that if you try your absolute best you will succeed. This motivational quote states the harder you work the better your success would be. As long as you complete your task you will achieve greatness. I think it's best to have fun while working on something. I like to listen to music when i am doing pretty much anything. I get anxious if i don't listen to music in a lot of time. I have try not working hard and taking the easy way out. But that just makes things harder and takes a lot more effort. So i might as well do my job as im supposed to. In conclusion, if you're feeling down and don't know what to do. Don't give up and try again. Success comes after pain.
i honestly dont think much of these 7 quotes. at this point i only like this class because of scratch an only because i can make my own beats and sounds on there. and there are a lot of things to do in scratch. if you compare scratch to the class. scratch is better. you can do a lot of things. and you can predict days before what we are going to do in this class.so to end this paragraph with my thesis statement. scratch is better than this class.
Key 10: Confidence
"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again ."
i think this means that in order to be confident of yourself you have to do the same old thing you always do."a daily routine" wake up, brush your teeth, go to school, go home, do homework, sleep, repeat. that's how you become a confident man. by god. how does the teacher gets these amazing quotes. way better than any martin luther king quote. or a tupac shakur quote. no "all the white folks have the best quotes in dee damn interweb" if i had a penny for every time i have typed about a white mans quote in this class. i think i might be as rich as their president. "come on over to gabriels casino and otel to support our future president. so what if he owneed slaves and is racist and against everything. he's rich." *minutes later* (gabriel started war and is posting about it on twitter) when my dad talks about the presidemnt we currently have thats what i imagine in the next few years. i don't really understand why people voted for him. #makeAmericaGreatAgain
P.s. white people have no right to tell mexicans/african americans to get out because we came from somewhere. as you guys came from no where and took this land. so if we kicked you out :) you would have no where to go.
These are real motivating quotes. #tupaclivesinmyheart
REFLECTION
Write a final all-encompassing reflection about the 10 Keys to Personal Power. How can they benefit you? Which keys are you applying now, and what difference are they making in your life? How will you incorporate the other keys into your Life Planning plans?
i will not fallow any of these ten keys. i will keep on doing what i'm doing. i will succeed in doing my homework. and i am gonna write a book with motivational quotes. i will show people what is good and bad. how not to discriminate. i will show them, we are all the same. god made us all the same. you teacher/proffesor/haymore are wrong for judging others for what they do. when the bible clearly says we shall not judge others. we are all made the same. we just got lost somewhere in the road. i am always observing to see what is up with the people. i can tell most of us are going through things. As i recall the first semester in this class you stated," You should be ashamed of yourself because you will never belike your sister. she would be dissapointed of you. you will never go to college with that behavior." if you don't believe me i have PROOF i recorded what you said. i didnt like the fact that you had no problem picking on him more than others. from what i've seen you only pick on pablo, jose, karen, and me. these keys had no impact on my life. the only one that can make a difference in this class is you. no quote from a white man will ever change me. first of all they don't know what they're saying most of the times. they blame everything on other people. and most of them are just "Mouth breathers" i know that you that saying go back to your country is bad and wrong and mean and you can get you can get checked. what i find funny is that if i were to tell an "american" that they would have no where to go. They took this land. they came from no where.
.
"Have 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 for others who do."
As long as you do not walk behind someone's shadow you will succeed. this quote means if you are always being looked down on and not do anything to rise up and be as good as then you'll never be anything. its good to have role models. you learn from them. just never try to be like them because you can always be better. being like your role model wont change anything. lets say your role model is an actor. you want to look like them. so you hit the gym. but once you have their physical appearance what else do you do. nothing. in order for people to look up to you, you have to be better than them. everyone is different. by our attitudes, moods, faces, the way we talk. how we walk, our motto in life, our family. everything is different. I play various instruments and Mr.Haymore teaches students, we all do something different.
Key 2: Competence
I think this quote means that if you try your absolute best you will succeed. This motivational quote states the harder you work the better your success would be. As long as you complete your task you will achieve greatness. I think it's best to have fun while working on something. I like to listen to music when i am doing pretty much anything. I get anxious if i don't listen to music in a lot of time. I have try not working hard and taking the easy way out. But that just makes things harder and takes a lot more effort. So i might as well do my job as im supposed to. In conclusion, if you're feeling down and don't know what to do. Don't give up and try again. Success comes after pain.
Key 3: Concentration
"Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself “Is this the best use of my time?” before you start anything."
i think this means to enjoy yourself while you still live. if you stay your whole life angry and frustrated. you will regret everything you didn't do when you were able to. i know how this feels because i regret not being able to do all my homework last year. and that caused me to get bad grades.
Key 4: Common Sense
- Train your mind
- think things through
- listen to your intuition
- learn from setbacks
i think this means that common sense isn't only what is obvious but what it should be too. training your mind will set a higher bar so you can reach higher goals. think about your options. learn from your mistakes and don't be afraid to try. if at first you don't succeed try again. never give up. believe in the process of your training. playing guitar was never easy for me but i didn't give up. and i think i'm pretty good now.
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."
This is basically saying dont judge a book by its cover. everyone was made the same. and at the end of the day we are all very smart. we all go through tough situations. if it wasnt for eve telling adam to bite the apple. we would basically be free of problems. have peace everywhere. but with every good comes an evil. the good that we have is god/religion and the evil is satan. no one is perfect but if you fall into temptation you too will be choosing the wrong. it is easy to do wrong and can be hard to do good sometimes. i can easily stand up and leave class/school without saying anything to anyone. i am capable of walking out of school through the front office. or even jump the gate to leave.
Key 6: Consideration
"The quality of your relationships with other people will determine your success in life."
"Develop the people skills you need to become a better communicator. Take courses in listening, speaking, etc."
"If you were to learn one new word a day, within 5 years, you’ll be the best educated person in history."
this basically means that the people you are around will reflect on how you act or are. if you are around bad vibes you will too feel bad. being able to communicate well with others will show you are very educated. and you will speak up for yourself or others. listen to others. like in the movies where the parents get divorced because the man doesn't listen to her. but now a days nobody can really understand a woman. And if you learn a word each day you can seem very smart.
Key 7: Consistency
"Dependable, steady predictable work is always superior to fast spurts of work."
Be consistent in your relationships, your family, friends, your boss, your work. Be the person that people can depend upon. That if you say you’ll do something you do it.."
this means that you should stay committed to what you like or what you're doing. when i was in wrestling i was committed i stayed for the whole on and off season. i find it frustrating seeing the wrestling teams Instagram post stuff about the quitters. i quit because of multiple reasons. and now the team except Jason treats me like garbage. so in order to not feel like me, stick to what you're in until the end of high school or don't join anything. people have said "if you tell someone they're useless enough times they'll start to believe it." in my opinion this is true because the coach would never acknowledge me and when he did it was to criticize me. i stay hoping i don't come across the coach because i am low key scared of him and he would say about me. i cant see with my right eye so ill finish it off like this.
Reflection:
Write an overall final reflection in this post regarding the "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People." Include your deepest thoughts and feelings. Write what you commit to do to apply the seven habits.
i honestly dont think much of these 7 quotes. at this point i only like this class because of scratch an only because i can make my own beats and sounds on there. and there are a lot of things to do in scratch. if you compare scratch to the class. scratch is better. you can do a lot of things. and you can predict days before what we are going to do in this class.so to end this paragraph with my thesis statement. scratch is better than this class.
Key 9: Courage
"The fear of failure is the single greatest reason for failure in life."
to me this is saying if you think you are gonna fail you are right. you can never be too negative. i remember the day i got my guitar it was an electric guitar a "Fender Stratocaster" i remember plugging it to the amp and playing.it felt so weird because i had never held or played a guitar. i would get so frustrated because there was no one to help me learn. i had to learn on my own. i started learning thru youtube. but i soon realized i needed to learn a lot about the guitar such as the parts of it and the name of the strings. it wasn't until i signed up for an after school program. where a teacher had a music class (Mr.Lopez) and i asked him if he can help me. he took me in and showed me the basics. A month or two later we played "Boys don't cry by ~The Cure" i played the guitar the teacher was the vocalist this one girl was the drummer and i forgot who the bass was. what i'm trying to say is that "The first step to succeeding is failing ~ Will Smith" or "if at first you don't succeed, try again. ~ idk"
these are the exact guitars i have i also have a black acoustic fender guitar.
"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again ."
i think this means that in order to be confident of yourself you have to do the same old thing you always do."a daily routine" wake up, brush your teeth, go to school, go home, do homework, sleep, repeat. that's how you become a confident man. by god. how does the teacher gets these amazing quotes. way better than any martin luther king quote. or a tupac shakur quote. no "all the white folks have the best quotes in dee damn interweb" if i had a penny for every time i have typed about a white mans quote in this class. i think i might be as rich as their president. "come on over to gabriels casino and otel to support our future president. so what if he owneed slaves and is racist and against everything. he's rich." *minutes later* (gabriel started war and is posting about it on twitter) when my dad talks about the presidemnt we currently have thats what i imagine in the next few years. i don't really understand why people voted for him. #makeAmericaGreatAgain
