2. Based on my experience this means that if you want a good result in life, you have to build it yourself and make it happen. If I want something to fall into place, I have to work for it and build up to it and not expect it to just happen. I have to work hard even if the work isn't for me because you never know in the long run if it was for you all along.
ReplyDelete3. The poem and video are similar because they both are showing me that in life, you have to work to be the best and if you don't it won't do anything to anyone else, it will only affect you and the house you are building. The are similar because In the poem it is expressing that you should always put the best of you out there,nothing less because when you don't it shows you aren't yourself and you aren't worth of the best. In the video it is showing me that if I want something, I need to start building now and work hard because it'll all fall into place if I make the choice of doing it. They are different because in the poem it is saying all positive things. In the video he is saying that how you come about things and handle you business, that is how your house/life will end up. They share the similarities of presenting me with inspiration, life lessons, and they both help me recognize reality and the challenges that will occur. The also both show me that in life you shouldn't just work because it is for you, you should always put all of your effort in to be the best because it shows in your work you do.
4. You are your own responsibility and how you handle your business, is how you life will end up. If you do not care about you effort and the things you do, it will make your life negative. As you live, you should want the best for yourself because however you build, that is how your house will come out. You are supposed to know and recognize who you are because it will cause you to learn your abilities and put them to work to build your dream life. However you decide to put effort it, it will reflect in your life, so put it to use and make it happen how you wish. If you don't like your outcome of what you have build, tear it down,forget about it, and rebuild it again.
5. My attitude for things in life is where i want to make changes. I want to make changes in that are of my life because I always say I don't care about things and it eventually bites me in the butt because the things I say I don't care about, matters. Also my attention, I need to pay more attention to things because it will help me become a better person.
6. It would make a huge change in my life because my attitude is what controls my actions, and my actions show who I am. That change will show people that I am a good girl and I care about things I do. I will respect people more and most importantly, I will respect myself with pride. The change in my attitude will cause me to realize that before the change happened, I was once the person I did not want to become. It will be an eye opener and it will help me realize my actions and help me change them for the better.
DeleteIf I payed more attention, it would cause me to realize all that I have been missing out on. It will prove to me that I was lying to myself because I didn't want to know the truth. My actions would be more positive because I will know what I am doing and why I am as well. Paying attention to things and myself would cause people to know I am sharp minded. It would make me more recognizable because i will be engaged in things and it will make me stand out.
7. The message in the video matters to me in many ways. It matters to me because if it were up to me to build someone's house, I would not put all of my effort into it because it isn't for me. It helped me realize that I should always work my hardest because it could be my life/ house I am building. It also matters to me because most people don't care about things they do because they feel they having second chances , but in reality, not all people have multiple chances to fix things so I learned to work my hardest at all things. Another reason why it matters is because I know I am not perfect and I know sometimes I don't try, but the video helped me think more about my effort and my actions.
The message in the poem matters to me in many ways. It matters to me because sometimes I don't know who I am and I don't know why I am the way I am, so that message was an eye opener and caused me to think more. It also matters to me because at times I don't know what I am capable of doing and I don't take the time to find out. I can apply these messages to my life because at home I don't like expressing myself and showing who I am because I am afraid of judgement. At school I can apply this because in class I don't always work because I want to, I work because I am forced so knowing there is always a reason helped me recognize there is a purpose of doing certain things.

1. take notes and watch video
2. Based upon my experience this means that if you don't like the way you are, change it. There is nothing wrong with you changing something that you don't like. If you wan to change how you are going to live then change it because it's your life your living for.
3. The poem and video are similar by knowing where you stand. Having you to give yourself that little boost to push yourself up. Knowing who yo are and knowing what you are going to do in life. They are similar by the perspective it gives by being about you. They both show passion into you changing yourself and why your different. To me I see both similar because they both let me know that this is who I am and I have a reason to be here. They are different because they show different ways into showing the message there telling you. The video talks about life and if you want to stop something that's preventing you from grinding, then change it. The poem is talking about how you are this unique person and have a reason into why being here.
4. The way I see the overall message of the poem is by the poem telling you that even if your different then anyone else, isn't a bad thing. People are going to see you differently but who ever said it was a bad thing. If they see it as a bad thing then they are basically talking about themselves as well. Overall you are a unique person who can change the world and some will see that. The way I see the overall message of the video is by the video talking about change. If yo don't like the way your living then change it. If you don't like the way your grades look, change it because it's preventing you from going to the next level. Change isn't bad. People change a lot of things. Every decision you will make will built you up your life. Every shortcut is going to destroy your life,slowly. You will live in the reality you are building. You are slowly building up your life with decisions and giving it your all. Average effort will be a average life because you are jot giving it all you are capable of. You know that you are more than capable of giving it 120% but if you don't then what's there to prove.
5. A area in my life that I will like to change is how I put myself down. I sometimes focus on the negatives things around me because it affects me a lot. I don't tend to focus on it a lot but when I do there's just me putting myself down not wanting to talk to nobody or my family because of negative things in my life. I know that I have to focus on the positive and realize that I may have it better than what somebody else is going through.

1. Watch video and take detailed notes.
2. Based upon my experience, this means to always value yourself and be proud or accept every single action in your life positively. Don't put yourself down or settle for anything lower. Set your standards higher than the sky.
3. The poem and the video are very similar because they're both saying how great you should be and how you have to use your whole effort in order to be successful. They also differ in a way because the video is going more into how you have change the bad in you or your whole life is going to be a failure. But the poem is saying that your gonna be successful no matter what because of your greatness or talents. The video goes more into the deeper reality aspect rather than the poem does. They share many similarities such as goals for success, greatness, and to be better as a person.
4.
The video is about the decisions you make. It's explaining to you and trying to make you understand that your a product of your effort. That every decision you make, you live in. The poem however is about how great you are. It's about believing in yourself based on how positive and how strongly its saying about the greatness within yourself.
5. An area in my life in which I would make a change in would be how I eat. I chose this area because I would like to eat better due to my love of animals and peace.
6.
If I changed this area in my life it would feel like a huge weight lifted off of my back. It's very hard for me to eat healthy and right because of how long I've been eating unhealthy for. I'm an addict to the taste of meat and I don't want to be that way any longer. It sucks how I eat meat and enjoy it because I love animals. I've been planning to go vegan for awhile now I feel like that would brighten up my perspective and my outlook. I really support animals and are against slaughter houses so I will try to get past the meat horror.
I hope maybe after I've worked on being vegan, I can grow my own plants such as a tomato, cabbage, strawberry, apple, and etc plant/tree as well. To make it easier to keep me in check. I also wish to be surrounded by plants or make my own little green house in my patio. All in which I will work on in the future. But that's what'd I'd change in my life and how much better It'd make me feel if it was done.
7.
The message in the video and poem matter to me because it's very important to not put yourself down. Always keeping yourself up will impact your life so greatly and that's the whole message of the video and the quote. The positivity coming from the quote makes you want to be a better person and value yourself more than ever. The video's inspirational moments makes you wanna do go for yourself and put in more than a 100% effort so you can be up. And that's exactly what the message in the poem and video mean to me.
I can apply the principles to my life to make it better by telling myself everyday, " Did you put ALL your effort into this? " Because I always get lazy to do something. I always do and that causes me to lack my full effort that I should be putting in. For example, This is one of the first days where I finished a post on time in class. I seen that it could bring my grade all the way up and I took advantage of that and decided to put my all in this. As I should be doing everyday in class. That's how I can put my apply the principles to my life to make it better.
6. I say I would be happier if I changed that area in my life. I wouldn't have to question anything in my life to what the choices I make. I wouldn't have to question the risks I take. I wouldn't have to question the way I have it. I will know that I have it better than others. I would realize that the change in that area made me a better person because now I know that I can do this in life, I will have help on the way. If not, I know that there is a reason for me having it to do it alone.
ReplyDeleteIf there is a purpose into doing it then it shouldn't be a reason for failing. Knowing you can succeed and knowing that you can give it your all then you should be succeeding. I know that everyone has gone through failure, but that should boost you up. to me i would get all the chances i can get in order to succeed. To me This will help me so much in the area that i am letting myself down. Where i get a position that I want to give up because it's to much that I don't want to struggle.
7. The messages that were told in the video and poem matter to me because it reminds me that I can succeed in life. They matter to me because it gives me a certain inspiration from what I read and hears. Like a boost or a reminder telling me that I can do this with the effort i give and the decisions I make. What I read from the poem and what I heard from the video gives me more knowledge into not giving up. This is who i am, and the person i am to realize that I can do this is what boost me up to try harder.
Failure is no option, even when it happens you know that you have to try harder so you can be known. So you can be known for what your capable of. I can let this apply to my life to make it better with the area I want to change. A certain reminder given to me to realize who I am and what i'm capable of. There is no reason for giving up because your only giving up on yourself.
2.) Based upon my experience, the message means, you have molded yourself into the person you are today. If you don't like your life, the only person who can fix it is you.
ReplyDelete3.) The poem and the video are similar in several ways. The video and the quote are similar because they have similarities in the message behind it. The poem "Who I Am" relates to the video because they share the meaning of reaching success using your own independence. Although the poem and the video have some similarities, they also have some differences. The video informs people on how to improve yourself, and why you are the person you are today. The poem gives off the message on knowing yourself in a positive perspective.
4.) If you don't like your life or the current situation you are in, you should try your best and fix it. There's no better person to run to when you are suffering through something, than yourself. When you are going through certain problems and you want to get out of, you should try fixing the problem on your own. If you just believe in yourself and you think you can fix it, you will be capable of getting through it. The only person who got yourself to where you are today is yourself. If you believe that you are different compared to everyone else and you believe that you can fix your own problems, you'll most likely easily get through the tough times. Everyone suffers at some point in their lives, and the only way to get through with it is to be grateful for what you have and embrace it. The only way you should approach pain is by dominating it and embracing it.
5.) My grandma just passed away, and I didn't expect the event to make an impact on my school work. Although when I got my test results back, I didn't do my best. I really didn't want it to hit me, but I realized that it did. I'd like to overcome this obstacle because I'm a very positive person and I hate being sad. I'm trying to overcome this obstacle by embracing about the positive things in life and focusing on the good rather than the bad.
6.) If I changed this area in my life, I'd be able to focus a lot more on my school work and I wouldn't be as distracted as I am right now. I'd probably have straight A's and I wouldn't be drowning in school work. It hurts that the things going on at home has made an impact on my schoolwork in a negative way. I try my best to focus on the good things in life rather than the worst, but I wouldn't say it's an easy thing to do. If I was able to overcome this obstacle, I'd be a lot more focused in school, and I'd probably wouldn't have a C in Geometry.
7.) The message in the video and the poem matters to me, because I haven't been feeling my best lately. Being informed that I should improve my situation and take in the positive things in life really helps. It also matters to me because I can actually apply the message to my situation. Through out my years of hard work, I am the person who I am today and it has helped me get to where I am today. When I read the poem, "I will be grateful for my success", it has inspired me to focus on the positive rather than the negative.
I can apply the principals to my life to make it better by applying it to situation whenever I feel down. When I loose my motivation. I believe that the person who I am today is a reflection of all the hard work I've done in my life. All the bad things that I do is something I can fix, and I shouldn't worry about it. Life is too short to keep focusing on the negative things that has happened in my life. I should only take in pain by embracing it and dominating it

2. This means to me that you are not like anyone else. You have your own personality, traits, goals, achievements, and failures. Accept everything that has happened to you and use it to help you achieve greatness. No one else is like you. You're unique in your own way and will help you stand out from others if you use them to achieve greatness. When you do, people will start realizing who you are and you could be an inspiration to them. It is hard to achieve what you want to achieve, but that means not everyone can reach it. So you must fight through it.
3. The poem and video are similar because they both talk about how to reach for greatness. You have to be able to realize what you have failed and what you have achieved. You learn from past experiences from what to do and what not to do. The video and poem are different because the video focuses on building your life the way you want to live it. If you do not like the way you are living, tear it down, as in stop doing what you are doing, destroy what you hate, and rebuild yourself. You can start over and become the person that you want to be. The similarities that they share are that they both talk about the way your life is.
4. To summarize the poem, you must realize your failures, achievements, be grateful for your success because not everyone can do it, and lastly, use your talents and abilities. Everyone learns from their failures because if not, then you must be someone who thinks that they are the best when really, there is someone who is working harder than you. Everyone has talents and abilities that they can do that someone else may not be able to do. Use them to the full extent to be successful. To summarize this video, it is talking about building a house which is a metaphor for your life. If you do not like your house, tear it down, then rebuild it. Build a house, and live in it. It's your life, you have to be the one living in it and not let other people control who you are or takeover.
5. An area in my life that I want to make a change in is my school life. I want to be able to stop procrastinating and get my work done. There are reasons for why your grade is like that. Although, sometimes i try my best in a class and i still somehow am not able to bring it up. But i want to try harder and change that. You have to get the work done sooner or later because in the future, all you will be doing is work. It'll help you be motivated and realize that you are not the only person suffering.
6. If i actually changed this area in my life, I think that most of my grades would be a high A. My grades now are pretty decent. I have mostly A-'s, some A's, and some A+'s. I try my best in school because it's something that makes me proud. I'm proud of myself that I've made it this far to still keep my grades up. I want to make my family proud, but i really want to make myself proud. I always turn in my work, and do my assignments. What really brings my grade down are tests because something about them messes me up when even if i understood the material completely in class and homework.
I want to change my grades into high A's because it shows how hard i am working to contain that grade. And if i ever forget to do an assignment, it might turn into a low A at least, but then i can turn in my work late if my teacher accepts it. I would rather get the credit for it than none. I'm trying to stop procrastinating in doing my work. I need to stop being lazy and say i'll do it later. I look at my planner and i think "I did a lot, but i still have a lot." This is because of the work i don't do. You have to do it at some point so just get rid of it. It's not worth getting an F in classes that can possibly affect your future career.
7. The message in the poem and video matter to me because these sayings help me understand what i need to do. I realize that your life is important and you must take charge of it. Yes, you should obviously still listen to other people because these people can help you change your life and cause a effect in it. It helps others realize that the house you built is either something you want or don't want to live in. If you don't then tear it down, and rebuild it. It is never too late to turn your life around. Be the happiest person you can be and make a change. Achieve greatness and be successful at what you want to do.
DeleteI can apply these principles to my life by changing what i want to change. I need to stop whining and do it. Nobody wants to be average because average is something everyone else is. Those people aren't achieving their dreams. You're going to lose you job, and family if you keep being average. Nobody wants to be average because when you are average, you're just like everyone else. Nobody is going to be able to see your greatness if you are on the same level as everyone else. Learn from your failures and build onto it. Your talents and abilities will help you achieve greatness and success because those are traits that will be an advantage. You can also use those traits to help you create a new one. Whatever you want to do, you must fight for it.

2.Based on my experience this means to me that you can achieve something you have never achieved before, you can build your on life, you can follow that dream you have been dreaming about and live it.
3.The poem and video are similar because it talks about how you can make anything happen you just have top be able to live it and express it all the way through.The only way to success is to believe in yourself and finish strong.And the quote and video have something similar because they both talk about how you can now live your dream and be able to accomplish it, by thinking of ways to make you dream happen or any type of goal you want to complete in your life.
4.The message that has been given in the poem is that, how you are you and that you are that type of person that is going to accomplish in your life.And that type of person who is going to win and finish strong, and that type of person who is going to be successful.And be thankful at what you have accomplish and how you will use talents and anything to get you through you completing what you want to achieve in greatness.The video on the other hand, explains that you can rebuild or build the certain type of life you want to have or how to be successful.You have to build a phenomenal life if you want, all you have to do is put in average effort and approach it and embrace it.
5.A area in my life that I want to change in is how I can be able to achieve something without having to be stressed out about.For example the way to succeed is to do it and not think about an be able to make it to the top change it if you don't like it and dominate it on how you want your life to be.
6.If I changed my life or the area of it it would look different instead of having a lot of opportunities it would look like I changed the way I achieve something and it would change how I would think about the certain type of goal.In this way I wouldn't live the average life and I would't be able to focus on my goal, I would just throw away that opportunity.It would look like I didn't try to encourage myself to finish that goal rather than,to experience it.
7.This message and poem matter to me because it encourages me to do more and to go after my goals.And how it is your life and how you want to live it and how you want it to be.This also matters because it can show people that they can rebuild their life if they don't like how they live it, they can make every step a shortcut and achieve something in their life.I can apply it to my life to make it better by telling myself in every step of the way I can achieve something and every decision I make can count as how I deal with all of the effort i put into in order to build my life all the way through.
1) Watch video and take notes.
ReplyDelete2) Based on my experience this means how much effort you put into your life you will have to live with it. You need someone to push you day by day in order to get big things accomplished. This also means you never know what will happen in your life so give 100% always no matter what.
3) The poem and video are different in many ways. The first way they are different is because the poem is saying you are special and a unique person but the video is saying to build up to your greatness. The video gives an example of what can happen if you give 10% effort and the poem doesn't give any examples but is telling you, you are worth it. The video and poem are similar in many ways. The first way they are similar is because the video and poem both are trying to get me to give 100% effort and how I am the person I'm building up to be. They are also similar because the poem and the video are both saying everyone has the ability to create and accomplish big things in life. They both share the ability to influence anyone who watches the video or reads the poem by saying they are worth it and can do it.
4) Both the message and the poem are saying you are worth more than you think and you know it yourself. To me the video is saying how much work you put into things, you will receive the same amount back. In other words, you can't expect something big when you haven't been giving your 100% effort everyday that goes by. The poem is saying everyone is their own person and has certain qualities no one else has. In my opinion, the poem is inspiring those who read it because almost everyone thinks their not worth it but in reality their worth the same amount as everyone else on earth. Every decision a human makes will effect them tremendously in the future. The video is saying everyone needs someone to push them or else they will get lazy and not worry about anyone else but themselves. The video is also saying you never know what life has ahead of you so give it your all every single day you live.
5) An area about my life I would like to change is to stop turning in work a day or hour before its due. I would also like to improve on my attitude because my attitude is the first thing people notice when I talk to them. Another area I would like to change in my life is challenging myself everyday to accomplish bigger things because I know I'm worth more than I have shown.
6) My life would be completely changed if I actually changed my attitude, turning in work on time and accomplishing bigger things. If I were to start turning in my work or starting it a couple of days before it due my teachers will start seeing the potential in me more and more. I personally know I can turn in my work days before it due but I never set my mind to it. I always use excuses saying I have to much homework but half of the time that isn't true. The main reason I don't turn in my work on time is because I'm lazy and no one pushes me to do it.
DeleteOnce I start realizing how important it is to turn in my work before or on time, I know my grades will go up tremendously. My attitude has made a big impact on my life because I have a really bad attitude when I get mad. I've learned to control my attitude but it is still really bad and has made me look like something I'm not. My mom has pushed me everyday saying I can and will change my attitude. If I continue having a really bad attitude right now, life will continue being very difficult for me. Once I start seeing the change in my attitude I know my life will only get better for me as a person and people will want to be around me more and more.
7) The message in the video can apply to me because I realize I need someone to push me everyday so I can accomplish big things. I can apply all the concepts to my life because I realized the effort I put into everything, the more I will receive. I've realized nothing is given to me so I need to work for just about everything. The video explains how you never know what will happen in life so giving my best effort will only benefit me for the better. I need to understand no one can change me besides me.
The poem matters to me greatly and will only influence my life for the better. The poem is inspiring me and telling me I am worth it. I am beautiful and unique and no one can tell me I'm not because I know they are just trying to bring me down. I can apply the principals to my life because I'm going to learn to use my talents and abilities only for the better. No one knows how greatly my life will change once I make these changes but I know my life will only get better. Everything is going to be better once I start accomplishing bigger things daily and stop taking everything for granted.

2. So this means that your special, your awesome.Also Your who you want to be.
3. The poem and the video are similar because their both trying to tell you that you are special IN YOUR OWN WAY. Then it's also trying to tell you that you can accomplish any thing is you give 100.00% in your work.So if any time you don't fell that you can't finish it just remember that you just need to try.
4.So don't be a failure just try and you'll succeed if you give your 100% on your work.Don't give 90,80,70,60,50,40,30,20,or even 10% you'll need Your !00% to do your work.

6.it would look like i'm A honer student and my teachers will have a different perspective about me.Then my school years will be different as well i will have good grades and my parents will have a good thought about me.
7.I can apply this to my life so i know that by not giving my all i will not succeed and i will fail and watch my friends succeed.Another way i can apply this to my life is that i will know to give my all to my work and school and so i will not fail.
2) This video means that all the work you do is what will get you and the work you do must be great and you must make sure that you fix the work you don't like because you will live in your work for the rest of your life. The poem means that you need to look at what you have and notice all you have done, both the failures and accomplishments. That those will be what need to inspire you to go for the winning streak you want.
ReplyDelete3) The poem and video are similar because they want you to see the work your giving in your life. They both want you to acknowledge what you did so that you can do better and get the best out of life. They are different because the video uses a story with a prompt behind it. The poem, on the other hand, is strait to the point and says the you have to see you progress and then notice what path that's leading you down.
4) The video is basically saying that you work can affect your life greatly. That the quality of work you do in life is what cones out of it. The video wants you to know that your life is what you make it and that the only culprit who brake it is you. The poem, however, states that you must look at you progress and see what is going on. You have to know what goal you want to have and then make he work to get you there.
5) The part of my life that I would like to change would have to be my relationship with my family. I chose this one to write about because my family is screwed up badly. I want to change to because my father is always angry, my mother left before I could speak, my sister hates me, and 2 of my brothers we're separated from us but and were adopted by my uncle and aunt.
6) I picture this part of my life changed by having my mom being clean of weed, beer, and drugs in general and living with me. My brothers would be living with me and my sister and we would have fun all the time. My father would be much happier because he isn't stressed so much and my sister would actually like me because she doesn't think I'm annoying when i ask a question. Over all have my family all together and not bickering all the time. That's how I picture this part of my life solved.
7) The meaning of both the video and quote matter to me because they help me realize that the work in my life isn't my best. The video specifically helps my realize that the work I am giving will cause my to fail several classes and end up working at a crappy place. The poem helps my see that my mistakes can be fixed and that my greatest success is still possible. I can apply the meathead the video gave by giving my greatest work on everything i do because it will affect me if I don't think it will. I can also do what the poem said to do, look and see what my failures are and what my successes are and them see what path i am going down then work harder if i don't like the road.

2) This means to me that if you don't like it then you gotta fix it. or you can change almost everything in life but you have to do it right the next time. and this means to me that o the things right.
3) the video and the poem are similar by they both say that you mess up in life or made the wrong choice. and the difference between the video and the poem is that they both don't talk about the same thing. and the video it tells us how we messed up in life the poem is about i will or i am. and the similarities they both share is that they are helping us with life , how to fix our problems.
4) the message of both the poem and the video its about if you don't like it re-build it.and it tells us if we don't like it we have to fix it. and if you heading into a life you don't like you can change it.and its telling us that you are a product of your effort,like if you messed up it's yours. and ET tells us what happen to the guy and he gave someone else the house,so he just gave the house for free.
5) i would like to change something in my life is that i should change my bad grades into good ones. and i should do the good things instead of the bad thing in life sometimes. even i shouldn't talk back to my parents.
6) It would look good because my parents would like it when i don't talk back to them and when i get good grades. because i would get anything if i do those things and they would be happy. even if i ever happen then my dad would teach me how to drive around. and they would buy me the things what i want like a paint ball gun or a dirt bike and some other things. even my life would be better if that happen i would be happy to because i wanna see what i did.
7) This message in the video and the poem matter to me is to help me what i should do in life. and the video and the poem it make you think about your life later on and you start thinking about it. and i can apply this in my life by doing the things right and start doing the things right in life. even i would have to do is that i have to change by being a better person to my parents not talking back and me getting good grades. it might be hard but i want to do it to make my parents happy ,and impress them to let them see what i did for them and its gonna be easy in life.

2. Based upon my experience what this means is that you should not take any short cuts. You will live in what you have built, the decisions you make will stay with you forever. This means that you should not take any short cuts. This also means that if you do not like anything or something about your life that means you need to change your decisions and start all over on what you have done.
3. The video and the quote are similar because, they are both talking about how you can be able to be a great person in life. They both talk about how you can be successful in life. They are different because the video says that you can be better and to make sure you make the right decisions, and if you do not like something from life than you can start all over again and do it better. The similarities they both share are that you can be a better person. Also that you can be a great person.
4. You should not have to take short cuts through out life because once you do, you have already messed up. Life is not easy but you should not take short cuts, once you do you need to brake down everything that you have done and start all over again. The mistakes and bad decisions that you make the first time you will have to live with it through out your whole life and you can not change that. You will live in the reality with what you have built, and every decision you make you will live with it.
5. A part in life that i would like to change would be me not having to turn in all late assignments. I should have listened the first time they had said "Due tomorrow" but that is not what i did i just ignored. That is something that i would really want to change from my life as in right now.
6. What this would look like in my life if i could change this through out my life, is that i would have all good grades. I would not have to be such in a rush like right now i have a little bit of time to get late work in. Also i would not have to get my stuff taken away from my parents like right now. My life would not be so hard like right now i can not do anything i can not have fun and go out with my friends as much as i do before because i have to finish and do so many assignments from school. My weekends are not as fun as they would before.
How my life would look right now if i would have done what i was supposed to do, is that my grades would be good. I would have nothing to worry about because i would have done everything the first time, i would be out going to parties,staying out late having fun, but now i can not over all this work i did not even finish, if i can make that change my parents would get me everything i wanted as before but now its a whole different store.
7. The poem and the video mean a lot to me because this is showing me that if i have done something wrong i have to brake it down and start all over again. This means to me that life is not as easy. You can not just earn things without doing anything. It like a job if you do not do your job you do not get paid. That is the way school is as well if you do not do your homework you do not get good grades instead you get the opposite and you get a bad grade.
How i can apply this to my life is to make sure i get all my work done and not take any short cuts. I have learned that short cuts just make things harder for you because that means that you need to brake down what you have done and start all over. I can apply this to my life by knowing that if i take short cuts and start all over that is going to be much more harder you need to start from the beginning. Now i know that the mistakes i have done they will stay with me for the rest of my life, and i can not change that. That is a way that i can apply this to my life.
2: This video to me means that you need to try your best at all times. Also to stop complaining and overcome it.
ReplyDelete3: They are similar because they are both inspirational. Next they are similar because they both talk about creating your own life. The reason that they are different are by explaining it differently. Also they are different because one of them is talking about building your own legacy and the other one talks about only building your life.
4: The moral of the video is to try your best not just average. If you only try average then your life will only be average. When you could've had a phenomenal life. The poems moral is to also to try your best and not give up. It's also trying to say that you could make it big in life because we have a purpose in life. Also that if I try my best in life that I could help others also become successful.
5:In area that I would want to change from myself would be my behavior. I would want to change that because that has always been my problem in school.
6: I think it would look way much better. I think that because I feel like I would get along more with my brother. Also I think it would look better because I feel that I would get more of my work done. Then it would look different because I would have really good grades. Next I would look at life in a different perspective.
ReplyDeleteThen it would make me get along with more people. Also I would be way more successful. Then I wouldn't have a bad behavior grade for some classes. Next my parents would be way more proud than me and probably they would have treated me differently. Finally I wouldn't stress out about assignments in school because I paid attention in class.
7: This poem matters to me because it inspires me to do great in school. Also it matters to me because it helps me think of what type of life I want. Next it helps me to tell myself that I have a purpose in life. Then it matters to me because it helps me get focused in my education. This poem makes mes think of my future and to see what is going to be my future.
I can apply this poem to my life by taking it as an inspirational speech. Through all my life and it will help me get through tough times. Also I can apply this to my life by it helping me be successful. Next I can apply it to my life by remembering to try my best. Finally I can apply it to my life by repeating it in my head when I get stuck in life.

1) Watch the video and take detailed notes: BUILD YOUR HOUSE
2) Based upon my experience what this means to me is that you are building and setting yourself up for the life you are going to live in.To me this means that everything you ever do in your time, all of your efort and all of your grinding will either pay off or be your mental,physical or emotional destruction. So you need to start doing great things now so you can live the rest of your life satisfied.
3) How the poem and the video are similar is that they both give you the idea that you are your own success. If you want to succeed then it is up to you and your choices to be on the path to greatness. They differ in they sense that in the video E.T is explaining to his viewers that you are your own worker. The decisions you make and the materials you choose are they building blocks to your future. ( Or in a more rhetorical sense, your home). Everything that you've ever done in your life will determine whether or not you live in a world where you are proud with the things you've accomplished. The poem is different from the video because in the poem the author is conveying the message that you know who you are as a person and you have acknowledged all of your failures in life. Yet you are going to try your best and put all of your effort into creating a great legacy because you are grinding to live your life as best as possible.
4) The messages that both the poem and the video are trying to say is that your life is yours and you are in control. I say this because they both give the audience a powerful message of that if you do not like what you are seeing then something about it and change yourself for the greater. Everything you are doing now will determine the length of your success and the amount of satisfaction you will carry with you. Not only that but also they way you will live the rest of your life. Will you live it in peace and calmness or will you end up being filled with regrets. Dot think about what could be or what could have been, look forward and strive for greatness in your day to day life. Do this because in the end all of your hard work and all of your pain will pay off. Everything you do comes with a cost. Its up to you o decide whether or not you are willing to pay they price for greatness.
5) An area in my life i would like to make a change in is academic area. I need to start turn in my work on time, if at all. I need o start being more responsible for my thing and shape up. Because i know im slacking off and not giving all of my efforts. My words say one thing but my actions are saying another.
6)What it would look like if i actually changed this area in my life is that i would stop feeling like such a mess and i wouldn't have as much beef with my mom as i do now. I would feel like less of a mess because this failure in my life is really dragging me down mentally and emotionally. I feel as if im worthless and cannot accomplish anything with the grades i have now. My insecurity's would definitely go down and i would also have a better relationship with my mother. It seems now that we are constantly having arguments and i just want them all to stop. They're getting on my nerves and i really dont want to hate my mom because of my lack of responsibility and effort.
7) The message in the poem and video are extremely significant and play a big role in everyone's lives. I say this because it is too easy to get steered down into the wrong path, but it is exceptionally hard to get back on your own two feet after that big hit. I just think that its important for everyone to know that every decision a person makes in their life matters. No one tells you at birth that everything they do now will add up into their life later on. We as human being get no handbook on how to be successful. We just kinda get thrown out there will little assistance from others. We must learn and understand how to build ourselves up to be the best e could possible be in our time. So that then we can not only live a good life but hopefully give something back to our community's and world around us. This isnt just for ourselves, it is for everyone who will ever come across our path. Its for our kids and our kids,kids. I can apply this principal to my life to make it better by beginning to make smart decisions. I need to build myself into the person i want to be, and i want to look back and be proud of everything ive done in my timespand. I want to die happy, not will regrets.
Delete2.it means put effort in your work don't half of your effort give a 100% percent effort so people can know that you spent time working on it to get a job there not going to won't half did work they want to make sure you put in some effort in it let's people know that you are not play around.
ReplyDelete3.the video and poem talk back if you aren't focused on doing your work then how are you going to get stuff done in life school work and building a house both need a lot of your effort to do instead failing somethings go back and put some effort into doing so you teacher or boss know that your not messing around about your work that's how you get accepted to colleges they want to see if you are putting time and effort into your work your work and family comes before everything else.
4.nobody wont half done work so if you put effort and time into them if you don't put effort and are you going to get a job,house,and a car if you put your time into it you can have all those things if you put your time into doing the work or project people know if you are a good student or worker if your spending time on your work don't find easy ways out just do the work to see if you get done with your work if you if don't you can finish it another day along as you put time effort and time into it.
5.i need to put more of my time into doing the work instead not doing it if fail i doesn't hurt anyone except for me because i'm letting myself down for not doing the work i need to start putting a little effort into doing even if it's school work my work comes before everything i need to change my ways.
6 it will make my life better if i just do the work instead of not doing it i have to break my habit of not doing if i do it and get it over with a little effort will make everything better for me i'm going to stop talking to my friends in class if we are learning new thing.
7. i can apply this if i stop talking to people and listening to my music while were learning and do all my work with a little effort and stop talking back to the teacher and do everything the

2. Based upon my experience this means to me that if I do not like something in any part of my life then i need to rebuild it.If i don't like what i built then in need to start over and try again till i make it to my liking.I should be able to put a 120 percent in everything that i do or i will have to live in it .
3. This video and poem are similar because they both talk about how they both want and are willing to succeed in what they want and need to do.They both talk about how they are willing to work hard and if they don't then they will fail.If they fail then they will have to live with what they did /have done.But they are also different because one is mostly talking about self love.And the other like the video is talking about how if you make something or do something then you need to put 120 percent in or you will have to live with it or rebuild it because you made a mistake and you have to own up to it.But the quote is mostly talking about how you should love yourself and how your unique.And how you should be grateful for what you have and what you get.
4. The message from both the quot and the video is saying that you need to approach ,embrace,and dominate the pain that you ac cure in life at any point or moment in life.It is more necessary to get the job done then just slack off and do what you decide you want to do.You will live in the reality that you build.You will have to build you own home and live in it even if you don't like the outcome of the home that you built.give your self self-love and realize that you are unique and not like anyone else.Acknowledge your failure and fix them so you can create a great legacy.
5. An area in my life that i would like to make a change in is my procrastination part of my life and yeah that pretty much it.My procrastination is real like that's my biggest struggle i feel.But i can work on that by just learning and a way to know what i need to do and give my self a time limit.
6. If i changed this part in my life then i personally think that it would most likely solve a lot.I learned not to be such a procrastinator then i think that i would have maybe probably almost straight A's.I think that because its not that i'm dumb or i don't know how to do my work its just that i need to learn when to start and stop brushing it off like i have more time when i don't.I mostly think i do this because i rather do my work at night when everyone is sleep or gone because it way easier with out everybody there.
If i knew how to not procrastinate then i would probably live an easier life because i don't have all this stress on me trying to do my work because i don't want to finish.But i think that my life wouldn't actually change that much just less stress i guess .But that's just me because even when i do have my grades up its still the same nothing actually like goes away.
7. The message and quote in this video matter to me because it helps me understand how what my actions are can effect me and my grades in more than one way.It shows me that i live in what i build.I can lose my life or any good part of it if i keep putting things to the side and not doing what i need to do.It shows that i can't always cut corners in what i do because i'm too lazy to fix something .
I can apply these principles to my life by allowing myself and giving myself time to do what i need to do and letting myself know that its more necessary yo get the job done.The guy that was telling the story said that the guy was being lazy and didn't put full effort in what he built.So the other guy who he was building the house for gave it to him and said that he built his own house.The house that he didn't put full effort in and knows that he didn't put full effort in.So the story was to put full effort in your work or it will come right back to you in one way or another.And that's exactly what i don't want to happen to me.
1.) Already did...
ReplyDelete2.) This means to me that know who you truly are and find the real you the one who will succeed and accomplish life. You are unique and special and different to others that no one can away the personality that makes you who you are now.
3.) The quote and video can be found similar because it tells you what you have to do and what you are willing to do to know what you truly want to do later on in life. The quote tells you who are and what you want to do to be who you truly are, simple stuff and all that kind that tells you to find out who you are. The video however tells you that if you don't like the life you live or if you don't want to be that kind of person later on then rebuild it recreate till you make it perfect for you.
4.) Make the decisions you chose of who you want to be later on and when you make that decision then don't make any mistakes that can change your future. Find your true self and find the meanings and explanations of what makes you, you the unique you. If you don't like who you are change how you act, behave, talk, and look.
5.) I don't know what kind of changes that I want to have later on because I have gone through changes in life. Since 2007-2012 I used to be a little wimp that was an easy person to be picked on, 2013-2015 I changed a little by the way how I talk and how I behaved because I went from being a good kid to a kid who would get in trouble sometimes, and 2015-now I changed sort of, again I changed how I talked and started getting attitude which would lead to me being hated sometimes and I started to defend myself so I wouldn't be that wimpy kid that people used to think of me. So there is nothing that I would want to changed except for one thing which is being on time and listening more often in class.
6.) What would it look like if I gone through changes or the changes that I wanted, well I'm not sure because again I have been through changes. So if I start changing my attitude and habit of being late for 1st and 2nd period classes then it would be more easier because I won't miss out on anything and I won't have to come in awkwardly to class. Other things that I wouldn't mind changing is that to find the right people to be around with because I hang out with many people like the ordinary kind, the smart kind, and the troublemaker kind.
Details of how I would end up with the choices I make, one is if I be with ordinary people I would just be ordinary both good and bad. With the smart people they can help me out which would lead to being the average in my classes and for being with the troublemakers well that will lead me to being a failure and a non graduate student who won't succeed in life.
7.) This matters to me because even though I have gone through changes I still have a couple of habits and acts that I want to change so I can be a different person that won't fail, won't have anything that bothers me, and especially won't have a excuses of why I don't do any of my work. I also want people to forget about how I used to be because my past is what distracts me of my future and it prevents me from moving on in my life.
This helps because everyone needs something that can help them be the best or just good at something. So in the end yes I have gone through changes and I do want to change more later on so I can keep moving on in my life.
1. To summarize the video Build Your Ideal House what it means is that you got to put more effort into what you do and not a little effort.
ReplyDelete2. The area that i would like to change in my life is putting more effort into my classwork and homework at school. I can't get through life unless i start doing what i have to do to get my grades up in school.
3. I new i took short cuts in life but what my dad told me about short cuts is. There is no short cuts you have to do it the hard way because if you don't you will have trouble getting through life.
4. I can't do average in my work i have to give it my best effort. Also, I have to put more effort into my sports because i want to get that scholarship for basketball so i can make my parents proud. My parents want me to be successful in life they don't want giving up and dropping out of school.
5.Gladiators approach the pain, embrace it, and dominate it. You can't go through life giving a little bit effort and expect you to get a good career. That's not the answer the only way to do it give it you're all. No matter how much the pain is.And if you don't like you're life rebuild it. If you don't like you're career rebuild it.
6. The video Build Your Ideal House is similar to the poem because it basically talks about how you should change you're life and what you want your career to look like as an adult.
7. For example, I want a career as a professional basketball player and the only way to that is to change my grades.
8. The difference between the video and poem is that the video explains more detail about your career and how to change your life.

1. Took notes.
2. What this means to me is that you know what kind of person you are and you are the only one that can change your future. You can proceed to take on the obstacles in your way. And what it is also saying is that you should always use your talents that you have and you should turn them into your legacy.
3. How the poem and the video are alike is they are both talking about that if you are going to put a average effort oh something, you will get that average effort right back at you. And also they both talk about how you should always go for the greatness in your life and always try to achieve the best out of you. How they are different is the quote talks about how you can achieve the greatness and so that you can be happy pout the success that you have had in your career. The video talks about if you do not like something like your life pr how you are doing in your education, then rebuild that to make it better.
4. What the quote was talking about was to always be special and unique.Always be thankful for the special talents that you have. You can always use those talents to help you find the career fit for you. To summarize the video, it talks about who you can really be if you don't give it an average effort. If you give it an average effort, then you won't get the best out of the things that you really want. For example, if you don't have the grades, and Christmas is coming and you really want a brand new game, don't expect it to be the one you want because you are not showing your parents that you really want it with those bad grades.
5. An area in my life that I would like to change is how much time I spent on doing homework. Why I would want to change this is because I don't spend as much time doing my homework because I am always distracted with something or someone distracts me.
6. How it would look like if I were to change that thing is I would have even better grades than I do right now. Because if I were to change how many hours I would spend on my homework then would be paying attention more in class so that I know what to do at home instead of just trying to find my way around to not do it. Also I would feel more confident with my grades and I wouldn't be so worried about failing that class.
This would change how my life style would work everyday. Instead of going home and going straight to my phone, I would get a snack, then get straight into my homework. And then my parents wouldn't be telling me to do my homework over and over again. If I were to do the same thing everyday I would be done with my homework early so then I would have time to spend on something that I like to do.
7. Why this message matters to me is because it could show me to not be careless about my work and to always be on top of my game. And also to always be happy about what you have and to be grateful for the legacy that you have and the one that you will carry on for the rest of your life. How I can apply this to my life to make it better is by using it to motivate me into doing more more. And to also never give up on your dream. If you don't like something in your life then you can always rebuild it.
2. Based on my experience this means that if you don't like something in your life rebuild it. You have to make what you don't like in your life new and better.You have to make whatever you don't like about your self or your life better, make it better.
ReplyDelete3. The poem talks about who you are. It says that you are great and special you you will be great. While the video says you need it make your life great on your own. They are similar because they both talk about how you need to win in life. They are different because the video talks about you having to rebuild your life if you don't like it or rebuild anything you don't like. The similarities they share are that they talk about being great. The poem says that I am special and i'm running to win. The video says that you have to rebuild yourself to be great and to win in life. So the video and poem both talk about you being great and that you are special.
4. The poem basically says that you are special and unique. It also says that you know what your failures are and that you will make them better and be grateful for your success. It also says that you will use all your abilities and talents to be successful in life. The video says that it doesn't matter what you wear to be successful as long as you are able to grind in whatever you wear. Also that you have to work for everything. It says that you have to rebuild yourself to be a better person. You just have to do whatever it takes to be great you have to work for your greatness.
5. An area in my life I want to change is my school life. I honestly believe I can get straight A's but I don't put forth all my effort in certain classes. All I have to do to improve my school life is rebuild myself to a person that will put 100% in each class.
6. The way it will look is me getting A's in all my classes. I can do that by rebuilding my work habits to good work habits. I have to be hard working in all my classes. I know if I get A's in all my classes then that will make my family very proud of me. That will be a big change if I show up with straight A's on a report card. My family will be really proud of me because they always wanted me to get straight A's in school. To them that's the best thing I can do for them is to do good in school.
The change will honestly be for the best. It will be for the best because I want to be able to play basketball and get a scholarship for college. I just honestly want to make my family proud especially my mother. All my mom wants from me is to do good in school. I want to be able to give my mo something to be proud about. The best for my mom would be for me to get straight A's in school. So by me changing my working habits in school will be for the best.
7. The video and poem matter to me because it lets me know that I can do what I want if I put my mind to it. The poem matters to me because it makes me feel like i'm special and worth something. It makes me feel like I can do whatever I want to do if I really put my mind to it. The poem makes me feel like i'm special and I can really do what I want to do. The video matters to me because it makes me feel like I can rebuild myself and make myself do better in school. It also makes me feel like I can just rebuild my whole life and become a way better person than I already am. It really makes me feel like I can just do what I want if i just put my mind to it.
I can apply it to my life by rebuilding my self. I can rebuild myself by stop doing what I normally do. If I want to rebuild myself then I can because the video makes me feel like I can. If I really want to change my life then I have to do what the video tells me to do. When I watch the video it makes me feel like I can do what I want to do with my life. I can apply the video to my life so I can rebuild how I do my school work. If I really apply the video to my life it will make my life so much better.

1) Took detailed notes.
2) Based upon my experiences, what this means to me is that I have to build my house inside of me. Furthermore, even though I know who I am, I am not completely sure I know all of it. Like the video said, "You will live in what you build." Therefore, I have to know what I really want my life to be/look like, so I can start building my house. Don’t give up and give 100% in everything you do.
3)The poem and the video are similar, by explaining/stating, that you need to know who you really are. The poem and video are different, by the poem talking about who the person is and what that person wants to attain. On the other hand, the video is about how we have to make decisions and that we will live in the reality that we build. It encourages us to think positive because it is our life and we are going to live in it. Moreover, we do not want to be average in our life. Overall, the similarities they share are that they both apply to who we really are.
4) In my perspective, I feel that the message in the poem is that you know who you are, but you still have a long way to go until you finally reach your goal. Following, what I think the message in the video is that you have to understand all the decisions you make because all those decisions make/build your house and that is where you are going to be living. Furthermore, it really got me thinking that we have the power to turn our lives around and make the best out of it, so we can be happy.
5) An area of my life that I will like to make a change in would be, my attitude towards my family. I am really going to try as hard as I can to change my attitude because I do not like being so mean to my siblings, especially parents. Furthermore, this is a place in my life that I have to change my attitude because I learned that doing things with a bad attitude, it is not going to get me anywhere in life. I learned that I have to think positive in what I do and be happy because God is with me no matter what and that I can get through this.
6)I think, if I actually changed this part of my life, then my life will look pretty good. I think this because, this only lasts for a period of time and I know that if I keep up with this attitude, I am not going to go nowhere in life. Therefore, I really need to change for my family and most importantly for me. In fact, when I got grounded about a week ago and a half, I was py because it helped me focus on my school work and what really needs to get done.
The change will involve me being happy and not being mean to my siblings and giving attitude to my parents. I will stay focus so I can get all my homework and projects done. I will obey my parents and do what they tell me, without arguing. I will be a good role model to my siblings as well. Overall, this will be a good change.
7) The message in the video and poem matter to me because they will really keep me thinking about who I am. Furthermore, it will help me build the house that I want to live in. These messages will really help me make wise decisions that will lead me to becoming the person I will be in the future. I hope to be a better person, than I am now. Moreover, it matters to me because I know it is true and that it will really benefit me throughout my life. All in all, I know I can be a better person tomorrow.
Finally, I can apply these principles to my life by changing for the better. I want to become a better person in any way I can. I feel that when someone is not in a good mood, they tend to do everything in a bad mood. This sometimes results in things happening that can cause a problem. I know for a fact that this happens to me a lot. Therefore, I need to figure out ways to stop/change, so I am going to make good decisions, have a positive attitude towards everybody, and know who I really am and build a house.

1)DONE
2) Based upon my experiences, this means that whatever effort you put in, it is going to come back to you. So if you are not trying your best, you are probably not going to get the best. I try my best, but I don't give it my all, that is why I get what I deserve. A wise man once told me "You get what you deserved."
3) The quote and the video have similarities and differences in some ways. They are similar because they both talk about life. To elaborate, the quote and the video says that every decision you make you are determining the rest of your life. The quote and the video are different because the quote is relating to being great and having your life together. It also says that you are important. You are worthy. The video is related to the house, you build it you live in it. The video also says that if you don't like the house you build then tear it down, and rebuild. Meaning if you don't like how your life is turning out, change it, don't just put up with it. Make the decision, the right decision.
4) To summarize the poem it says that you are making a mark, a legacy that someone will remember, and talk about. You use whatever abilities you have as a person. You are on your way to being successful. Running to what you want to be when you grow up. You know what mistake you did, if you made a mistake you learn from it, and you move on. Once you move on, you will WIN. To summarize the video, it compares to a house. ET uses a house to give an example, he says if you don't give it your all, then you will have to get back what you deserve. Every decision you make, you will have to live in it. You are not the victim in the reality . If you don't like it, then tear it down, and rebuild. Don't just live in it, because if you live in your mistake you be successful. Don't make any excuses because they will only hurt you.
5) An area in my life that I want to change is that I listen to people that are negative towards me. Whenever I have a dream that I want to build, people would always tear it down when I don't want it to be teared down. They would say that it is impossible for me to do, because it is too much work, and that I would just give up or couldn't handle it. It is my fault that I listen to them and have my dreams destroy. They don't know me, a least the true me. They don't know what I am capable of doing or what I will become.
Delete6) If I changed this area in my life, it would be so much better. It would better because wouldn't have to give up the things I want the most. I will stop listening to the people who bring me down. This is my life not theirs, if they want to change anyone's life they should change themselves. I will take control of my own life. I will not make a any excuses.
I would have a control over my own life, by not listening to negative people. I should stand up to the people that bring me down for wanting what I want. Whatever I have to do in order to be successful. When I grow up I want to be a lawyer or a detective. I want to be a lawyer because I love to argue on what I want. Over last month I got a opportunity to go to Stanford and see how law works. I couldn't enroll because of personal problem. I will wish I had taken the opportunity because I would get see firsthand in law. It should not be a problem not to go but during the time negative people got to me, I felt like I couldn't do anything. I past up a opportunity because negative people got to me.
7) The quote and the video both matter because some people including me don't give it their all. They give 95% or 100%, it is not enough, you need to give 120% if it is possible, and it is. Try your absolute best, and when you do you'll feel great. Don't make any excuses not to do anything. You make the decisions and you will have to live in it. You are not the victim of your own life. This is reality, it is not a fantasy. So if you dream to make straight A's it's not going to happen if YOU make it happen. A fairy isn't going to make your dreams come true to a reality, you will. So stop wasting time, and start working. If you don't like how your life is looking right now, change it. It is never to late. And know that you are important, special, worthy and unique.
I can apply this concept to my life by building house that is great, and that is right to live in. I will give 125% effort in the house I'm building because it will affect my life. I will have to finish strong and powerful. The decisions I make depend what kind of a person I am. I know who I am, now I need to let the world know what u can do. Even if I have to make a sacrifice in order to be successful, I will do that. If you don't like the life that you are living in, rebuild. I will win and not lose.

1. Watch Video and Take Notes
2. Based upon my experience, what this means to me is that I build my own house by the decisions I make in life. Every short cut that I take and every corner that I cut will destroy and tear down the house. It is my life and I am going to have live in the house that I built myself. If I don't like the house that I have built then I have to do something about it and change it.
3. The poem and the video are similar in many different ways. They are similar becasue they both talk about who we are as people and how our actions define the life we live and the people we are. I am the sum total of the decisions that we make and the effort that I put forth. If I don't like something in my life then I have to do something about it to become the person I want to be and live the life that I want to have. On the other hand, the video and poem are both different in some ways. The poem focuses more on the topic of who I am in the sense that they have already made the best out of their live. The video uses and analogy to show that our life is what we make it.
4. The message of the poem, "Who Am I", is to discover who you truly are. It states all the traits and aspects that you as a person should strive to be. The message of the video "Build Your House" was that this is your home, you have built this and now you have to live in it. This analogy is used to show how the decisions you make and the effort that you put forth make up how your house is going to be and look like. If you put forth an average effort then you will get the result of living an average life.
5. The area of my life that I would like to make a change in is in my habit of procrastination. I have a tendency to procrastinate on a majority of my school assignments and work. I always think that I have more time than I actually. Also, sometimes I think I have less work to do when in a reality it is a lot more than I thought it was.
6. If I actually changed the procrastination area of my life it would look very differently. I would do this by actually starting my projects on the day I get the assignment assigned. If I do it the night before then I will not be able to ask my teacher who assigned the project any questions that I may have. I also would have to start my homework early. Since we have block periods, I usually would do the homework that was assigned that day on the next day since I would not have that teacher the next day.
If I just stopped procrastinating for nearly every assignment that I get or stop procrastinating in general then my life would so much better. I would not be putting out an average effort so then my life would be so much better than average. I would be provided with a lot more free time over the weekends to do things that I really love or hobbies. Every time that I was taking that short cut and cutting those corners, I am destroying the "house" that I am building. I need to put a phenomenal effort out there in order to get a phenomenal life out of it.
7. The message of the poem and video matter a lot to different aspects of my life. They both taught me to find who I really am and what I have to do in order to get to the life I want. Every decision in life that I make will take an affect on my life and how it will turn out to be. The house analogy that was used in the motivational video "Build Your House" stated that every decision I make make, it is like I am building the house. I have to make sure that theses are good decisions that are going to be made in my life because I want to be living in a luxurious home.
DeleteI can apply these messages into my everyday life for the rest of my life. In order to live a phenomenal life I must put a phenomenal amount of effort and make phenomenal decisions in order to receive that outcome. Nobody wants to be average in life. However, if I out out an average amount of effort, then my outcome will turn out to be an average house or and average life. I could lose the house, family, I could lose it all if I continue to be average. This is the house that I have built and if I don't like the house that I have built then I need to tear it down and rebuild it for a better one and the one that I desire.

2.Based on my experience this means thee things. One I build my own life and I am responsible for it. Two I am my own person and I am special. Finally three If I don't like my life I need to tear it down and remake it.
3.The poem are similar and different in many ways. One way they are similar is because they are both about being great. Another way that are similar is because they are both about life and that its possible to make it great. One way they are different is because the video talks about how you can you can remake your life. But the poem is about knowing who you are.
4.The poem and video both have many messages but the main ones are the ones that I will write about.The main message in the poem is is that you are special and you are o the way to success.The main message for the video is that you create your life and you are able to remake it if you want.There are many messages in both the poem and the video but these two are the ones that I think are the main ones.
5.The area in my life where I want to make the change in is my school life. I want to change this part of my life for two main reasons. One reason is that i want to change this part of my life is because I want to do better academically.The other reason is that i want to change my working habits because I procrastinate a lot.
6.If I actually change that part of my life I think things will be very different.One way I think it would be different is that I would have higher grades. I think this will happen because I would be doing better in my classes.The other way my life would be different is that I would more focused and finish my work faster.The final and last way I think my life would be different is that I would will be smarter i think this because I would be so focused that I will learn every thing I am thought faster.
7.This message and video matter to me for many reasons.one reason this matters is because the message that you create your life and you are able to remake it if you want. I think that this is important because I tell tells you that you can turn your life around and make it better.The other reason this mater is because it tells that I should alway give it a hundred percent.If i give every thing a hundred percent I can do great things.
There are many way I can apply the principles of the video and poem.One way I can apply the video and poem to my life is when it said to give every thing a hundred percent. I don't give every thing a hundred percent but the things I do give some things a hundred percent. i can apply this to my life by remaking my life and do better in school.I can do this by studying and being focused in class.

2. This means to me is that if you give a okay to everything you will get a okay life. If you don't put in effort you will not succeed in life. You gotta at least give something then nothing.
3. They are similar because they both are talking about that they will put in effort in whatever they are doing and how they are doing it. The video is talking about if you don't give it you're all you will not get your all back in return. The poem is saying that how they will be good and achieve at what they want. The poem says that it's on track and it will do good on anything they do. The video says "You are not a victim of your circumstances" "You are a product of your effort". So what the last thing that the video is saying is that if you do things lazy and don't really care about them. You will get a lazy or a really don't care thing back.
4. So what I think the video is saying is that if you don't show some effort. You will get nothing in return. You really didn't care on how you did that assignment or thing that was assigned to you. I think that the poem is saying is that you will use your talent on ever thing you do. You will succeed in life because it will become a habit. That means that is are going on a good rode to go down on.
5. My change would be on my attitude because on some days I have an attitude on ever thing I do. I wanna change that because my mom didn't show me that I have a little attitude. She showed me better I know she didn't teach me to have an attitude on ever thing I say or do.
6. It would look way better because right now it is not looking so good. I wanna be better I wanna show that my mom showed me better. She did but I'm going on a wrong rode. I think I will change because that will take me nowhere. I wanna go somewhere I wanna do big things. I play baseball and I don't wanna show my coach my attitude that I have a little attitude. I wanna show him that my mom taught me better.
7. This matters to me because I can apply this to my life that you gotta put in a lot of effort to get to the top. That's what I wanna do I wanna show every body that I can be on top. Prove that I'm good at baseball I wanna achieve my goals. So If I made another goal I can achieve it. I wanna go to a college team and that's my goal so I gotta put in effort to succeed in baseball and my life.
2) Based upon my experience, this means the choices I make in life will mold my future. Metaphorically speaking, I build the home I will live in. If I take short cuts and do just enough, my home will be unstable. If I do the average, I will have a decent, average home like everybody else. I could also push myself for the mansion. I could go that extra mile no one is willing to. Every decision I make right now will affect me in the future. When you look at life in that perspective, do you begin to think before acting? This video really broaden my spectrum to how much power I have over my life. It is exciting that I get to do whatever I want to in the future. It is also scary that with the amount of power I have, I also have the ability to mess everything up. Everything in life comes with a price. If you don't pay it now, you will in the future.
ReplyDelete3) The video and quote share some similarities, but also differs in many aspects. To begin with, they both talk about finding who you are as a person. The quote and video both open your eyes to who you are and how much power you are able to posses. The difference between the two is that the quote is more optimistic. It tells you that you know who you are. It states that you posses greatness within your soul. It tells you that you can do it. The quote projects an optimistic view in life that motivates you by saying you are powerful. The video is realistic. It is straight to the point and tells you that what you do will affect you in the future. The things you've done and the ones you are doing right now will have either a negative or positive effect. Everything happens for a reason. If you are not able to see the outcome at the moment, it doesn't mean it is not there. The choices you make builds the future you will live in. The video simplifies it by saying " you build the home you live in " .
4) The message of the quote is that you are powerful. You posses greatness within yourself and you can do what ever you set out for in life. The quote tells you that you are able to acknowledge your flaws, but also fix it. The message of the video is that you shape your future based on the choices you make. It doesn't affect anyone else, but yourself. Everything you do will add up. Some changes will not be obvious at the moment, but things build up. In the future, you will be able to see that all the hard work you've put into your life is worth it or not. You are building the home you live in. Life gives you many choices. It gives you the opportunity to be amazing, phenomenal, a legend. It is up to you whether you want to take those chances or not.
5) I would like to make a change in my work habits. I tend to procrastinate and wait till the last minute. This method is extremely tiring and unhealthy. I really want to have a schedule to my life and be on top of my work.
Delete6) If I stop procrastinating, I would get more sleep. More sleep would mean I am more energetic which will help me do better in school. Everything in life has a domino affect. Doing better in school will help me greatly in the future. This all come from one simple choice I have to make by myself. That choice is to stop procrastinating. Nobody else can make this choice, but myself.
I could begin to stop procrastinating by breaking down my work into little tasks. This will give the steep mountain some staircases. Once I begin to break things down, they will not seem so daunting and I will actually start my work. Doing my work when I am supposed to will lead me to finishing at an appropriate time. This gives me time to rest instead of doing a week's worth of work in one night. This can create an impact emotionally, physically, and mentally. Doing what you're supposed to do, when you're supposed to will make you a lot happier and stress free.
7) The message projected by the quote and poem both speaks to me greatly. They matter to me because they both guide you to finding who you really are. As a teenager, identity is what the majority of us struggle with, whether we admit it or not. The quote tells me I am powerful. The video motivates me to show that I am powerful through my actions. It shows me that the life I am living is for myself and nobody else. The home I am building is the one I will be living in. Nobody else.
I can apply this to my life in various of ways. For instance, I will think back to the quote when I am feeling useless or not good enough. I am also able to look back at the video when I think about making stupid decisions. Is it all worth it? Is this one thing so significant that I am willing to let it affect me for the rest of my life? Everything I do, I will think first. I now know that every action has a reaction. The things I do will build up. I might not be able to see it right now, but I sure will in the future. The choices I make will build the future I live in. It creates a path leading to the home I have built with all my decisions and hard work. I will live in the home that I have built for myself.

1.To me this means that nobody can change who I am because I am my own person. This to me also means that we are all different somehow but yet all the same.
2.They are both similar because they both explain that what you do is based on you only. They explain that the choices you make define you and you'll have to live with it. They are different because the quote explains that who you are is based on what you do. It explains that you are you no matter what and to just keep going until you get to the finish line. On the video it says that you'll have to live with the decisions you make whether you like it or not. It also says that if you don't like anything about your life, its our jobs to fix it. The similarities that they share is both tell you to acknowledge your failures because the young man in the video didn't and he ended up having to live in that average house he had built.
3.You have to put everything you got into work that is very important. Its you who has to fix things if you don't like it. You are your own person, and what you do reflects on you. You have to be sure you have a great mindset when you want to do something because if you take any kind of shortcuts then you won't like what you have in front of you. If you do have something you don't like, you have look at your failures and fix them. You'll have to take down what you made and rebuild it to something bigger and better, but most importantly something you like.
4.An area in my life that I'll like to make a change in is my school achievements. I'll like to make a change in this because I want to have good grades in all my classes. I'll also want to make this change because I'll be able to show my family that I'm doing good in school and because I'll want to make them proud.
5.If I did change this part in my life then it will look like me having my grades fixed because I actually did something to pick it up. I would have stopped procrastinating and would instead be studying or doing my homework. To be more specific, I would have to do extra credit to help my grade a bit.I'll also have to turn in my homework and projects on time. To do this I'll have to stop procrastinating and start getting to work.
If this part in my life did change then I know that I would probably have good grades by now. I know that I would have stop slacking off to get my work done. I know this probably won't be easy for me but I know I'll get through this if I know it will help me in school. I will probably be up early in the morning to get ready to learn new things and it will hopefully help me to not be tardy. I feel like if this really were to change then I know that I would have good grades because I'll know that I did something to change it.
6.This matters to me because I know that I have to put effort in everything we do because it will follow me throughout my life. I probably think that it wouldn't really matter now but I know that it will have a big impact on me if I just do things without much thought. This matters because I can have such great opportunities if I know I'm doing my best. If I were to just do things without much thought then I'll just be building my own house and I probably won't like it. If this does happen then I know that I'll have to do something about it.
To apply this to my life to make it better I would have to keep working to get to greatness. I'll have to put effort in everything I do up until the point where I like it. This will help me a lot since its explaining to me that if you don't acknowledge your failures then you won't like what you have. I'll have to learn how to do things that will make me happy. If I keep this up, then I know I'll be on my path to success.

1. Complete
2. Based on my experience this means to me that even though we make mistakes we can still recover and be on a right path . All in all , if you do not like where you're going do something about it to change it . This shows that we are different and can be our kind of perfection , we are all unique and a blessing .
3. The video and quote are similar because they are both giving us a moral . In the quote , it means that whoever you are , you are important and valuable . In the video , it mentions that you are building up for the home you are going to live in . To add on , you actions are speaking for yourself and whether they are positive or negative that is your reflection on everything Furthermore every effort you put in is the effort you will live in . As you can see , everything you do is building it up into your own house .
The difference between the quote and video is that it's told in a different perspective . To sum up the quote it means that your are one of a kind and anything you do is going to be great because you are yourself . In the video it talks about building up into your own kind of person and not be like others . At the end it is all going to be on you and the person who your really are . The quote and video were great and both taught me a lesson , I will now on be my own kind of beautiful .
4. To summarize the quote and video no one likes to be average . Everything you do reflects on the person you are building up into .You will live in the reality of what you have built . We are all a product of our effort .To continue if we are going to do something we need to do it correctly . At the end every shortcut you take you are destroying it .Every corner you cut your tearing it down . Simply be yourself and do what you enjoy . To conclude every decision you make you will live with that decision .
5. A area of my life I would love to change will be my confidence and the way I look at my myself . I want to feel loved by myself and only me . Not everyone would like me but just with my love it would be enough . As you can see , I need to step it up and look at myself and say I am beautiful . One day I will look at myself that way and that are will change to good .
6. If the area of my confidence would to be boosted up everything will be so different . My style , my personality , my attitude would be the opposite of what it's now . As of right now I see things as bad and not appreciate of things . Also I compare myself to many other people . The effect of loving myself will just be the best thing ever .
I learned that not everyone will like me but if at least love myself that will be all I need basically .People are never going to be because at the end it's just me .I wish to change and see process on myself . If this area would change it would be incredible .
7. The quote and poem matter because it taught me something very important in life . I will no longer compare myself but appreciate who I am because none will be like me . I will put effort into everything I do . I know that everyday I am building up for the house I am going to live in . Life is great so am I and the new perspective I will start having for now on .
I will apply this to my life by correcting my area on confidence and boosted it up . I will beautiful and be my own kind . I will not be anyone else but myself . I decided to change myself to who I really want to be and that decision will make me live in that decision . I will change the area and at the end of the day I will be beautiful . I will now on be myself and be appreciated for who i will be starting to be .
