''If you do what's right, if you live the right way, you'll be taken care of."

''If you do what's right, if you live the right way, you'll be taken care of."
By: Rachel Castillo

What this quote defines is that if you get your self straight, you won't have to worry about a thing. Doing what's right like studying to get a good education and setting yourself for a better future, will help you be successful in life. If you choose the correct path and choose to live the right way then you will be taken care of correctly. If you do good, then good will come to you. If you do bad, then bad will come to you as well. Doing good is important because you won't have to hustle in life and you'll have everything under control. You won't have to worry about paying the bills, rent, or providing for yourself  because of being successful, you'll get to have everything. This similar to karma because it's like doing something to somebody else then later on you'll get repay on whatever you did wrong. Then if you choose to live the correct way you shouldn't have any problems and you are going to be taken care of.

"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you where goalposts are.

"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you where goalposts are. 
By: Arnold H. Glasgow 

What this quote is saying is that you won't go as far as you think you will unless you know where you have reached the limit to your success. If you keep reaching for your goal and don't know where the limit is then you might not go as far. You should know when you have reached your goal. For example, like the quote says about the goalposts. You can't play football without one. You won't know where to score and it won't be a good game. Another example is a soccer net. You won't know where to kick the soccer ball to make a score. It won't be fun and you will look like a maniac not knowing where to score.

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right."

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right."
By: Albert Einstein 

What this quote means is that the right thing to do isn't always the common thing to do or is something that is done rarely. What everyone mostly does is more common than what is the right thing to do. For example, lets say you're cheating on a test you already know that it's wrong but you say to yourself "well if everyone else is doing it then why not." That is more popular than doing what the right thing is. If you are not cheating then that is less likely what other people will do. In some situations there are no other choice but to choose what's right or what is popular. But it isn't ok to always choose what's popular. You shouldn't be a follower. You should choose your own way. If you see some other people who are choosing the wrong and looks fun, you shouldn't go ahead and do it also to fit in. You are born to stand out.

A choice: Poverty or Prosperity

"I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it."
By: Dr. Ben Carson 

What this quote is saying that anyone who is born in a family with poverty issues can become very successful and poverty won't be an issue anymore. I believe that if you work hard and set your mind to something you can become successful at it. Once you've reached your goal you will either be proud of yourself or continue to do better and prove to others that it doesn't matter where you come from because you have now proven what you are capable of doing. I really like this quote because it shows how strong a person can be when facing poverty issues. If someone was in this same situation, they would be inspired to work harder so that in the future they do not face economic struggles. In the future, success will bring you happiness to know that you studied so hard most of your life, and you reached your goals. When you focus on school, education offers any opportunities for us to follow the path  of success. Just like Dr. Ben Carson was successful by doing good in school, I plan to follow his footsteps by doing my best in school. 

Presidents Day

Presidents Day

Monday February 15


                          
Presidents Day is an American Holiday celebrated on the third Monday in February. 
It was originally established in 1885 in recognition of President George Washington. It is still officially called "Washington's Birthday" by the federal government. Traditionally celebrated on February 22-Washington's actual day of birth-the holiday became popularly known as Presidents' Day after it was moved as part of 1971's Uniform Monday Holiday Act, an attempt to create more three-day weekends for the nation's workers. While several states still have individual holidays honoring the birthdays of Washington, Abraham Lincoln and other figures, Presidents' Day is now popularly viewed as a day to celebrate all U.S. presidents and present. Ways you can honor Presidents Day is to put an American Flag outside your house. You can wish a Happy Birthday to the presidents. Or have a presidents day party.

"Enthusiasm makes the difference."


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

What I understand about this quote from Dr. Norman Vincent Peale is that when someone has different feelings, you act and express different towards somebody or yourself. Being enthusiastic can make a big impact in your life and in others as well. You need to have enthusiasm if you are waiting to have success. For example, having enthusiasm could mean having a very positive attitude that doesn't like to fall and give up. It's important for all of us to have positive attitudes and not negative because when something becomes hard, most likely people will quit or give up. The key is to never give up because with joy and hard work, we will accomplish whatever becomes hard. As of right now I have many goals that i want to accomplish them with hard work. Enthusiasm can really be a big help for a great future when you are using it the right way. For instance, you have to have the enthusiasm in class that you are going to pay attention so you can understand the classwork and homework. You should be joyful. Nothing good will ever come from being upset. Good things will happen to those who do the right thing and who are happy.
