"Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now. Write down what you want most and see it often."

"Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now. Write down what you want most and see it often."

By:Peter Vidmar

Peter Vidmar is trying to say that you should fight for what you want and what you believe in. This quote inspires me to reach for my goals and never quit. My goal is to get a GPA of 4.0 this year and that's what I'm going to do. No matter what or no matter hard work I have to face, I will push myself into working hard into accomplishing this goal. If you really want to accomplish something, you should do it right now. No matter how hard it is, you'll get there and say that you did it. Hard work really does pay off and you won't regret it. I think this quote is very powerful to fulfill your dreams in life. The reason why is because if we want something in the future, we should't sacrifice it for what we want right now. It's basically saying that to not risk what you want most. Don't stress yourself out on what you want as of right now. Do the regular basis of your life and just go with the flow. In order to pursue your dreams, you need to choose the right. Peter Vedmar chose the right and that's how he got a perfect score of 10 in the Olympics.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

I wouldn’t like to be a Health Administrator because this career doesn’t interest me at all. I’m more into becoming someone who works in the hospital as a surgeon or a correctional officer. They get paid well but it still doesn’t interest me.

"A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches."

"A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches."

Proverbs 22:1

According to this quote, it's basically saying that if you have a good name, people will see you as a good person. You would want to have a good reputation for yourself, not a bad one. You want people to look up to you and you'll also want people to look up to you as their mentor. Having a bad name is rather to be chosen than having no riches at all. Having a good name is chosen over any other great things. You want everyone to see you as a good person and see the great qualities you have as a person. You want to give them a good visual image in the representation of your name. This quote says that a good name should be chosen than any other luxury things/money. I believe that this quote is true because I wouldn't be comfortable getting fancy things knowing that my name is known as a bad person ,but in other cases it might be different because people might be jealous of you knowing that you are a good person and start rumors that say you are a bad person.  For example, if you're rich and don't share any of your money to donate to charity, you're not a nice person nor deserve to have a good name. Somebody with a nice heart receives more riches than a wealthy person. Having a good name is what you want. Choosing the right will help you have a good name.

"A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life."

"A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life."

By: Coach K

What Coach K is trying to say is that having a good reputation for yourself is the best thing you can achieve in life. You would want people to see you as a good person, not a bad person. You would want to be somebody's mentor so they can look up to you and follow your footsteps. This quote is referring that your name should be your definition of how you are. For example, you don't want to be that type of person that when someone hears your name, you don't want that person to remember you in a negative way. You want them refer to you as a good friend and a good human being. What he means by saying that a good name is better than anything in this life is that you want the best for yourself and want everybody to know that you're a good person.  Having a good name is staying in school, getting an education, go to college, and getting a job that you enjoy working for. Having a bad name is getting bad grades, dropping out of school, choosing the wrong, and going out to clubs while doing drugs. You would't want to have a bad reflection for yourself and see what you've become. Coach K is a great example of having a good name. 

Right

"If your so-called friends urge you to do anything you know to be wrong, you be the one to make a stand for right, even if you stand alone. Have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow."

By: Thomas S. Monson

This quote is saying that you should always stand up for what is right and what ever you believe in and not listen or follow others who are doing the wrong thing. If your "friends" are trying to make you do something bad like drugs, then you should avoid that because you wouldn't want to hang out with people who are bad influences. You shouldn't do something that you are uncomfortable of doing. That's why you have to stand up for yourself. You should never do anything that's wrong to impress others. You'll probably be the only one doing the right thing, but you'll be rewarded unknowingly like good karma. If you are being pressured by your friends (peer pressure) to do something and you know it's wrong, make a stand to the correct situation. Even if you have no one to back you up in your stand, you must be brave enough to stand up, and when there are others in the same situation they can look up to you and do the same steps. 

"A CTR champion is a person who makes a great human out of himself."

"A CTR is a person who makes a great human out of himself."

This quote defines if you do the right thing, you will make the best out of yourself. You would want a good reputation of yourself. It also means that if you're a champion, your outcome is a positive thing because you are a positive of good and making good choices. Choosing the right is always the right thing to do.

The happiest people out there are those who always chooses the right. Doing the right thing and being obedient is the key to success. You should enjoy life by choosing the right than rather disobey the rules. The choices you make now, will affect you later in the future. It will either be positive or negative rewards. Whatever you desire. It's up to you if you rather choose to be a CTR person or a CTW person. It's always better to choose the right.

Choice

"Success is not an accident. Success is actually a choice. Are the habits you have today on par with the dreams you have tomorrow?"

By: Alan Stein

This quote defines that success just doesn't happen automatically to anyone. Nobody gets chosen to be successful or to be born successful. It only happens to people who chooses to be successful. In order to be successful, you need to work hard for it. Nothing is easy in life so you have to hustle for it. A lot of people choose not to hustle because they're lazy or they just don't care about their future but once they found out that they chose the wrong, they will want to go back in time and fix their mistakes. You can't have success by not doing anything. You have to work for it in order to be successful. Being successful and having a successful life is the correct path you want to lead yourself to. If you really want to join a career that you really love, you need to really work hard for it. If you don't choose to study and stay focus on your education, then you will hustle for the rest of your entire life. Nobody wants to work for a job that they don't like and not enjoy waking up early in the morning knowing you have to go to work. If you put so much progress into school, you won't have to worry about anything in your future. You'll have a home, enough money to pay off bills, and enough money to feed off your family. Choosing the right is being successful.

Obedience

"When obedience becomes our goal, it is no longer an irritation; instead of a stumbling block, it becomes a building block."

By: James E. Faust

This quote defines that you want to be obedient. When you're obedient, it won't ever be a struggle for you anymore to obey. When you're like at a certain age of seven or nine, it's hard for you to obey rules because it wasn't your goal. To make your own goal you need to push yourself and put in success. That's what James E. Faust is trying to say. Personally, I totally agree with James E. Faust because when you have a goal, you have to start from nothing, but when you achieve the goal, it is now a block now and you make something out of it. And that goal is obedient. Trying to reach your goal will make you work hard but hard work pays off all the time. Being obedient is the goal to/for everything. Being obedient will lead you to success and that's the correct path that you want to take. For example, when you study for a test, you won't struggle on not knowing the answers to the questions. You'll probably be the first one to finish the test because you know the answers. When you don't study for a test, you will struggle and just stare at the paper. And that's where the stumbling block comes. A stumbling block becoming a building block is choosing the right and being obedient.

"Choosing the right is always the right thing to do."

"Choosing the right is always the right thing to do."

By: Alex Linares

This quote defines that you should always do the right thing. You should do the right thing all the time. Choosing the right will make yourself right. You should always choose the right and never mind the people who are choosing the wrong or are persuading you to choose the wrong. Regardless of what others think or tell you, you should still do the right thing. You shouldn't let anyone make decisions for you so you should choose the right. Doing the wrong will bring bad consequences to your life. Choosing the right is the easiest thing to do. Personally, I agree with this quote because choosing the right is always the right thing to do and there is no better way of doing things than doing them the right way. Choosing the right not only helps you but it helps others as well. Even though you are going through a hard situation, you should always choose the right no matter what. When you are stuck in hard situations, you might tell yourself, " yes, no, maybe," but the answer is always YES to choosing the right.

"Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy."

"Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy."

By: David Bednar

I agree with David Bednar because he is trying to say what is true and giving us a good understanding about obedience being the central to becoming, being, and remaining happy. When people don't obey the rules, they will end up getting bad consequences like punishments. When you get a punishment, they are not things that are grateful and will get you upset. Another thing to support this quote is when people choose the wrong and do bad deeds,  they never feel good about their selves after  knowing what they've done was wrong and disobedient. When people do good and choose the right, they are the certain people who feel very proud of themselves. What David really means if you are obedient, you have the key to success in life. Being obedient will give you good rewards in the future.

"What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player."

"What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player."

By: John Wooden

This quotes defines that you are far more important than special skills you have for a sport. It is important to be the type of person you are than any other sport.  A sport can never define what you are as a person no matter what position you play in that sport. A career can never reflect who you are. For example, lets say you become the most famous basketball player in the world with all the money. It doesn't mean that you can just always play basketball whenever you want just because you feel like playing. You need to make up your own decision and choose the right because if you do, you'll become a ctr person and once you do that, you'll have a successful life. It all depends on your personality and how you want to live your life.
