“Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare.

                                           Japanese Proverb

Reflection: We don’t really expect our dreams to come true just naturally, we have to put action. For example you can be dreaming about being in a soccer team and making a goal but if you just sit there at home not practicing and not trying it’s just a daydream. Daydreams are dreams you have that don’t really come true unless you make them. But then there is action without vision. If we don’t even dream about becoming the person we are then it is a nightmare. Let’s say for some reason you became a lawyer but back then your vision was to become a doctor. It’s a nightmare for you because the one thing you will most likely say is “I wish.” Us as people need to put our actions and dreams together. We can’t sit around and except things to come to us because then there would be no meaning in life. We have to work and that’s just the way life is. We also have to make our dream come true and become what we want. You also can’t just take action and let it become a mess. Our actions and our visions matter. They are both something that really help us in life. Don’t just sit around dreaming of becoming something. Make it happen. Don’t make action until you are doing what your vision wants.

“Good thoughts bear good fruit. Bad thoughts bear bad fruit”

                                     James Allen

Reflection:

                The fruit of life should be some good tasty apples. Our life has bad and good. They are our fruits because they are what we feed ourselves with. If we take care of our life and keep doing the right things we can keep out fruit very tasty and nice. If we keep thinking bad and hating and being so bitter our fruit and basically our life will be bitter. The fruit of the spirit is the most important part of our life and we should take good care of it. It feeds our spirit and having no care in the world for it can make your spirit die. Next thing you know your life is so messed up its like you already are dead. Your nothing but a body. We wanna be alive and free yet we don’t make good choices. Maybe it wont be so easy doing good things all the time but at least we try our best.

“Choosing the right is always the right thing to do”

                    Alex Linares

Reflection:

              Choosing to do good things always brings you good attention and I don’t understand why people don’t choose to do it. It’s always the right thing to do because it gives to the world. For example if you see someone getting bullied and you do the right thing and stop it the person getting bullied will feel great because they know somebody defended them. Choosing the right is sometimes going to be hard but at least it doesn’t allow you to worry about anything. You always know when something is right or wrong. If you notice doing bad doesn’t even bring good to you at all it just bring bad stuff and then next thing you know your life is just horrible. We only have one life and we should do something good with it. We are all important and equal. Maybe the right choice isn’t always the easiest but at least it’s right. Choose the right things and im pretty sure your life will be full of great surprises.

Student Success Statement

“Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.”

                              Margret Thatcher

Reflection: If we keep telling ourselves to do that right thing we can have a better view on ourselves. When I do something bad I feel really bad about myself and I feel like really dirty. Doing good things always make me feel good. This quote tells me that everyone needs to set some rules for themselves and not only follow the rules of others. If we want to be happy and we want to feel good about ourselves we should do the right thing. Doing the bad things is eventually going to make you feel bad. Like for example you do something bad like drugs next thing you know you’re in the hospital for overdose and you feel insecure having to look really bad physically. If we want to feel good about ourselves we have to do the right things. Make some rules for ourselves. The right thing is a boost to the top of the mountain of life. 

Student Success Statement: Theodore Roosevelt

             Student Success Statement

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do Is the right thing.”

                           Theodore Roosevelt

Reflection: Is doing the wrong thing any good at all? All our choices affect us in some way we just don’t know how. Our moments when we have to make a decision are always a matter between good and bad. For example when you know eating chips is wrong and you have a choice wether to eat them or not it’s a choice between good and bad. If you eat those chips you’ll feel guilty and if you don’t you’ll feel great. There’s no greater feeling than knowing you did the right thing. It’s true when they say doing the best thing you can do is the right thing. Imagine if this world was just occupied by people who did the wrong things? I’d stick to doing good. It’s the best thing to do and it can also turn into the best feeling.  

Student Success Statement: " A Good Name Will Shine Brightly"

    Student Success Statement

      “A good name will shine brightly”

                              ANON

Reflection: Our name will shine bright if we choose the right. For example when a celebrity decides to do something good their name is all over the magazines and all over the news. The same thing can happen to us if we decide to choose the right. If we do something good the people will see how good we are. Our name will not be a word they don’t want to hear. Our name will reflect on the way we are. Wether we are good or not. Our name will mean something to people one day. Maybe one day our name will be up on the magazines or something but we need to do the right things.

             Student Success Statement

“I shall pass through this life but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness I can show, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it; for I shall never pass this way again.”

                                              ANON

Reflection: We only have on life to live and we shouldn’t take advantage of it. As we live this life that we only have once we should do anything we can to show good. The world has enough bad already we should be the kind of people that want to do good things. We only live this life once and if we do the good things then we can be successful and have the life you want to have. The life that has been planned out already since the minute you were born. If we choose to do the wrong things we mess up the only life we have. If we don’t want a messed up life we should do the right. There are two ways to go one way is the good way one way is the bad way. If we pass our life the good way then we will have an awesome life. Going the bad way will only mess you up.

   “If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.”

                                  Marcus Aurelius

 Reflection: If you know what you are about to do or considering doing is not good then don’t do it. If there is gossip going around do not say it. They are just lies made by other people. Doing the wrong thing can make a big impact on your life.

Example: When someone creates gossip you are tempted to tell someone else what you heard. You know it’s wrong to go around saying lies. Instead of telling everyone don’t say anything. That would mean you made a right choice. Don’t say something you know is not true and don’t do it if you know that it is the wrong thing to do.
