Student Success Statement: David A. Bednar

 “Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy.”
                   David A. Bednar
Reflection:

     Obedience is something that is always going to be the central of everything because without it this world would be even worse. I hear a lot of complaining all the time about how this world is terrible, and yes that’s true it is terrible but with the obedience that some people have, we are okay. If there was full on disobedience in this world, it would be filled with prisons, rehabs, jails, and so much more. Being obedient is exactly what you are doing when you aren’t murdering someone or when you aren’t doing drugs that are illegal. If you think about it, if you were to disobey the laws of this world, your life would be miserable. Why? Because instead of being out there in the world doing something you love doing or at least having a family you’re inside a jail or prison. Regretting everything that you did. Obedience makes us who we are, we call kids brats when they disobey their parents, well aren’t we just as bad when we aren’t following laws, rules, or anything that is Against God. I don’t want to shame anyone because we all fall short but I just strongly think that obedience is something amazing and it keeps us happy and that we should all be united as one to obey our father in heaven. It’s hard, a lot of things are hard but obey and things will come for you. Good things. 



100+ Goals

100+ Goals


Reflection: My 100+ goals are my treasure, I want to achieve every single one of them. I’ve made some progress, I think one of the main things that I achieved was getting closer to God, I still need to work on some stuff but he’ll work on me. I’ve had at least 8 victories, my next victory is to work out the whole summer, I really want to do that and loose weight. I’m working on some goals, like I’ve been writing a lot of poetry enough to make a book, maybe not for everyone but for myself as a reflection on who I am and what I believe in. Some things I do need to do better though is to stop being so lazy, sometimes I just get really lazy and tired and I procrastinate and it makes me fall behind and I already know that one of my goals is to be less lazy. I want to stay committed in reading my goals because I do want to remember all the things that I want to do because God wants me to have Big Dreams and I have a lot of things I want to do that I know I can do with him. I will commit top reading these because I know that I will be doing what god wants me to do and I will be glorifying him in everything that I do. A goal is a tiny mustard seed to him so of course anything is possible.

Class Reflection

1. What did you like best about this class?
             ~what if liked best about this class was everything that if learned. I loved learning how to use a lot of the things on the computer if didn't know how to use. It was a fun experience learning all these things especially now that if know that in most jobs they look for people who have god experience in Microsoft work thing. I also thought that we had a great teacher! He was really nice and humble.

2. What did you dislike about this class?
           ~ What if disliked were probably having to type a lot, and the fact that some of the stuff we learned was difficult at first. I didn't really dislike much about this class if only disliked it when it was tired and having to type reflections and doing a lot of research when it was really tired made me get annoyed but if liked this class.

3. What do you recommend to improve this class?
             ~ What if would recommend would be for the class to have more fun activities. It's a great class but it should be more fun. I really liked all the projects we were able to do on topics we loved, that was fun because we got to choose the topic. Maybe if the Student Success Statements and maybe if there were to be more choices on what the students would like to write about it would be more fun. But also to set boundaries. 

4. What will you always remember about this class?

             ~ I'm always going to remember doing the student success statements. I like writing devotionals and these were not exactly devotionals but if was able to do my favorite thing witch was to write, or in this case type, about what if thought and what if felt towards a certain quote. It was a really nice experience because if was able to share my voice, my thoughts, and my beliefs on this world and about a lot of things. It was all really fun, sometimes it wasn't easy but if enjoyed doing it so much and I’m going to miss that.
