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

What this quote is trying to say is that when you show you have enthusiasm for something it is showing that you are going to make a difference in getting it done. When you have enough enthusiasm you can make a difference not only in your work but also in others. When I am football games and I am playing on the stands with the band not everyone is so enthusiastic. I am the person who gets everybody hyped up. The principle and band director tell my parents that this is a good thing because it's showing them that I love what I do. When everyone else is sitting down and the music is playing the band mostly concentrates on the game instead of the music which is not what they are supposed to be doing. In order to be a great band we all must have great enthusiasm. Enthusiasm shows that you enjoy doing whatever it is you do. Something you could show enthusiasm for is school, work, reading, writing, etc. All these things are hidden inside of someone and to let it out you must show the world you enthusiasm for what it is you like. Don't hide you spirit behind a curtain because then it won't shine the way it needs to.

The secret of genius is to carry the spirit of the child
into old age, which means never losing your
Enthusiasm.

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


I believe that Mr. Dean Smith is trying to tell us that sometimes leaving a legacy doesn't always have a big impact. In order to make a difference you must do the right thing. That is how his legacy was made. When you intentionally try to leave a legacy you sometimes get to caught up with yourself that you forget what you were actually here for. When you forget about the legacy part and focus what is at hand while doing the right you make a greater impact on the people around you. When I lived in Kansas I was known by all the kids in my elementary school. Not because I was the popular kid but because I was one of the students that always behaved and did the right thing. All those kids that were younger looked up to me and told that one day they hoped to be like me. It gives you a warm feeling that you are appreciated for doing the right thing. I wasn't trying to be known around the whole and I wasn't expecting to get noticed but I did because I made the correct choices. If I were to get into fights and get bad grades then no one would look up to me for good reasons but more or less for dirty work such as finishing a job for them or getting in a fight for them. You don't have to try so hard to make sure others know you are doing the right thing. Sometimes people notice they just don't say it right then and there. You just have to be patient. So don't try to leave a legacy on purpose just do the right thing and everything will fall into place whether you get noticed or not.

Student Success Statement 1/20/2017

Sometimes the right path is not the easiest. 

"It's not about how to achieve your dreams. It's about how you lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma(good results, destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you."
                                                     -Dr. Randy Pausch

I believe that this quote is trying to say that in order to have a good future you need to lead your life the correct way. There are two pathways in life, left and right. Which do you choose? The left hold the life you will have if you choose wrong such as starting drugs, becoming an addict, etc. The right path holds the good life you will have such as going to college, getting married, getting a good job, etc. So which one do you choose? If you lead your life to the left I can guarantee that your life is not going to end well. If you lead your life towards the right path, your future will be brighter with a great outlook. The reason you must choose between two paths is because you are still deciding where you are going to lead your life. At this age you are probably doing things that hurt your body already. Or you are being a responsible and productive student. Your first choice could be going to the left path because it might be easier, only because you get away from studying. But the right path may be harder but it guarantees that your future will hold many dreams come true and more to come. So have you chosen yet? I know I have. Remember choose the right instead of the left. You want a better future, you better lead your life towards the right path.
 Our fate lies within us. You only have to be brave enough to see it.

"Make Your Passion Your Profession"

“Make your passion Your Profession.”

Music is my passion. Music has been my passion since I was a little girl. Music is my passion because it has brought me out of the deepest holes I’ve fallen into. It has made me who I am today. I have been dedicated to music because I have many talents that involve it. I know how to dance, sing and play instruments. I also love writing music. I love writing songs and it comes naturally to me when I am in certain moods. Music is also another form of poetry which another reason why I like this. Ever since I can remember I have poured my feelings into the music I wrote, play, sing and dance to. I have been called a nerd for being in a High School Marching Band but it doesn’t matter because I know who I am and I know that I am a nerd. Especially a nerd with music.  

I can make music my profession by becoming a singer, songwriter or I can play musical instruments for other artists in their music as their background. I can also make videos and see who can watch and hopefully be discovered and become what I’ve always dreamed of being. I can also make this my profession when I go to college and taking a music career class. And if I don’t become any of the above I can become a music teacher. I can learn how to play the many instruments and help kids that are eager to learn.

In order to become a musician the education requirements are that I can have a Bachelor’s and Associate’s Degree(not necessary), a Degree in the learning field of music. I must also have experience which means I must have several years on a specific instrument or vocals.

Some key skills I will needs is to have a Musical Talent, discipline and perseverance. In order to be a musician I must have a can-do attitude. I must enjoy my what I do because it’s not work when you love what you’re doing.

I would do whatever it would take whether it be going to school for a long time or having to go to school outside of this country just that I can have the job I want.

Student Success Statement 1/18/2017

"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 are in a few years are themselves decide the destinies of the nation."
                                           -Theodore Roosevelt

I think that this statement is trying to say that the only way we can make in change in our country is by showing that we have educated our mind, our body, and our character. This means that you must have control over your actions. Your mind tells your body what to do and your body shows the character that is within you. Therefore in order to educate all you have to be able to educate one. Educate your mind so that you know what is wrong from right. Educate your body so that you don't make the wrong move. And lastly educate your character so that you show everyone that you are educated. Your body, mind and character have a lot to say about you. If you educate your mind incorrectly and say it is fine to use drugs then your bodies response will follow what your mind says. Then what your body does is intoxicate itself with drugs, therefore ruining your character because everyone who sees you is going to think you are irresponsible and have no education. On the other hand if you were to tell your mind that drugs are bad and that you need to stay away from them, your body will act differently. Your body will walk away from anyone telling you to do drugs and your character will show that you are a responsible person who is choosing the right path. Everything you do affects you in many ways. Remember your mind, body and character are all connected so educate yourself correctly.

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

I think that this quote is trying to say that we should take control of our body and the way its is being used. You must have control in order to complete something peacefully, with your mind and spirit. To be healthy you must not only be physically healthy but also mentally and spiritually. These many characteristics help relax your body and show the best side of you. The side that you are responsible for showing each and every day. In order to have responsibility and control over your mind you must have a great spirit. And in order to have great physical health you must have good mental health and spiritual health. You have control over your body whether you decide to use it is what affects the responsibility of yourself. Many things you can't control and you have no responsibility over the outcome. Such as an earthquake could hit and the damage could be done but you had no control because you never knew it would happen. On the other hand if there was a tornado and the sirens went off but instead of reacting correctly you started to panic and you put your family in danger. Your responsibility and control did not matter to you in that moment. If you would have reacted to calmly to the tornado sirens then you would have led your family to a safe place and followed the drill. This is what responsibility and control over your body must be. Everything is connected, your mind to your spirit, physical to mental, but everything is connected to your body. Therefore think before you act and remember take responsibility and control over your body.

"Intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of true education."
                                 -Martin Luther King Jr.



I believe this quote is saying that in order to be very successful you must have both intelligence and character. Intelligence can only get you so far. Character alone is the same. But combine the two together and you have a big accomplishment. You may say what does intelligence have to do with character and what does character have to do with intelligence? Well without character you are saying that you are disrespectful, untrustworthy, dishonest, etc. and without intelligence then you don't get the right grades at school. If you have good grades such as straight A's and your character setting is strong because you are kind to others, because you are loyal, etc. then you will have many achievements accomplished with that being said. If you have amazing grades but you get into a lot of trouble and you have been caught doing something wrong then you intelligence but not enough character. This will make you feel good about your grades but not about your behavior. The consequences could equal in your parents not trusting you enough to go hang out with your friends after school. Will this upset you? Maybe, but remember you brought this upon yourself. The same thing could happen if you have bad grades but amazing character. This says you have little intelligence but a lot of character which can help you gain trust but without the knowledge/intelligence it will be harder for you to keep going. Whereas if you have amazing grades and amazing character then you will get very far. Don't make the wrong choices and remember to have high levels of both character and intelligence.

"We need the courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn't do."
                                               -Richard L. Evans


I believe this quote is saying that we shouldn't be afraid of doing the right thing because we know it is right and that we should stay away from the bad things in life because they can hurt you more than you expect. I also think this quote is trying to say is that everyone has courage but we use it differently. Some use it for the sake of others such as man saving someone from a burning car or a person saving someone from the train tracks after they have fallen and a train is coming. These are good examples of why you should use you courage and continue what you know is good. When you don't stop continuing what you know is bad then you are using your courage falsely. You can't use courage to prove things to others. Such as you smoke weed because your friends told you that you're scared. Be scared because you know that smoking is bad and it can injure you very badly. Another example would also be that you ask out a person because you got dared to. Why would you do that if you don't really like the person. Not only will you be hurting them but also yourself. Don't use courage to prove things because that is not why it is inside you. Courage is inside you so that you prove to yourself that you can help others and continue even though there is something in your way. Have courage and use it correctly.
