3 magic keys

These are the 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity: Have the courage to say no Have the courage to face the truth Do the right thing because it is right -W.Clement Stone What this means is to take responsibility and finish what is important first, then you can do whatever you want. An example of this can be like when you have to do an essay for a class and you got invited to a party, but you know you wont finish on time so you decide to go to the party. What you should have done in this case is do your essay earlier so you finish on time and depending on the time, you might be able to still got to the party. Another example can be doing your homework. When you get home you might do something that's not homework or school related. So you decide to leave it till the end,once the end come you end up not finishing or doing nothing. When you don't finish something you can finish it in class, better than turning in nothing. But if you did nothing then be h...

Shall be wise

He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed. -Proverbs 13:20 This means that if your with a group of friends that do bad things you will end up like them and wont be a good person.  If you hang out with your friends be wise on which friends you choose to be with. For example if you hang out with friends that don’t get into trouble, they do their work and help out, you can become like them. If you hang out with friends that don’t care, get into trouble, don’t do work then later on you’ll end up like them. When being with good people you don’t get into trouble but when it comes to being around people that don’t care about anything, and then you will end up getting in trouble. Everything all depends on one person; if that person does something bad then everyone else will start getting used to it and will do the same thing later on. When you hang around with good people they will be a great group for you because they don't do anythi...

Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving day  Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday in the United States, and Thanksgiving 2018 occurs on Thursday, November 22. In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by individual colonies and states. It wasn’t until 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day to be held each November. Create a Gratitude Ritual,Send a thank-you note,Give a free hug,Give thanks for today,Do someone a free favor,Give a little gift. Some things i am thankful for are my family, my friends, my education, and my teachers.

"Right is right, even if everyone stands against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it" -William Penn This means that when something is right its right even if no one thinks its true. If you think that it is right then you stand for it even if no one else does. When you are wrong and people stand for it let them. If you know its wrong then don't stand for it. Don't choose whats wrong, if you know it is not right. An example can be like when your going with your friends to the park but all they want to do is do drugs. You know that's wrong so don't do it. If they think it is right to do drugs then let them do it not you. Choose the right over than the wrong. The right will always help you achieve more and will reflect on you better. If you choose the wrong it wont do any good to you what so ever.

"Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now. Write down what you want most and see it often" -Peter Vidmar This means to never give p your goals for something you want right away. an example of this can be like if you want to be a professional athlete. You have t have goals in order to get to it. You need short term goals in order to get to your long term goal. For me my goal is to be a baseball player and play for the school. In order for me to do that i have to practice a lot, run faster and be ready for anything. These are things that i can do for short term goals. But when it comes to a long term goal you wont be able o accomplish it right away. Another example can be if you want to be good at something you cant just throw it away and do something else instead. If you really want that then you have to prepare for it. You have to set up short term goals to reach. Once you reach them you have to set a long term goal and you have to keep practicing...
