Class Evaluation

1) The things that I like about this class is that we get to learn more about the computer itself. We learned what we need to build a computer. We also learned what goes in the computer such as a CPU, a hard drive, video card, etc. We also learn about HTML which is how computer process everything we put in. If we want to write something in a different color we learn what codes are used to change the color. Also how to input a picture in html form.

2) Somethings that i don't like about this class is that we are not able to chew gum. Also we are not able to pick our partners when we do an activity that requires two or more people. Another thing is that we don't get to participate in the class as much as we do in other classes. The last thing is that the class is very repetitive and everyday its the same routine.

3) One thing to make the class more interesting is not make the schedule the same everyday. If that happens most kids will get bored and do other things rather than the assignment. Also do more fun assignments that require the students to think more for themselves when they are facing problems with the computer. Lastly, make the class more interactive among the students.

4) The highlight for me is the flash card machine. This helps me with learning a new language that i already started to learn. It helps me continue on learning new words a phrases to improve my vocabulary. It also helps me learn some medical terms for when i decide to become a doctor. Also weebly has helped me start my own blog which will help me later on when i do my senior defense.

5) I did try to do my best in this class. I tried to memorize all the parts to a computer. I tried to also remember the HTML codes. I tried to write what i know about the each post when we learn new keys or when we learn about the 7 habits. And also the nine ways to be a better person.

6) i try to read my planning goal everyday. The reason i don't is because i am busy with other school stuff or family stuff and i tend to forget that need to read my planning goal. Sometimes i remember but other times i forget because i am too distracted and worrying about school or other things that i have to deal with.

7) i try to be committed  to be a ctr person but when things happen there is no other choice to but to fight against it. I try to improve myself everyday by reading at least five pages of a book ilike or just by self evaluating.

                             The 10 Keys to Personal Power

                                                               Brian Tracy



Key 1Clarity
"Have vision. Determine what you want to be, do or have in life.  Have a sense of direction and know where you’re going.  If you do not have clear specific goals in life, you are doomed forever to work for others who do."

This key means that if we want to be something in life we need to be have a goal and be determined to accomplish it. We should be able to know where we want to go and how we are going to get there. we need to work really hard to make a change in our lives. If we do not have a sense of direction of what we want to do we will always be working for people who decided to do something good in their lives. That's why we need to have a vision, a goal so it can lead us to the right path of success. Our goals will help us be a better person then we were yesterday or the week before. When we work hard we will see the changes that happened throughout the course of our lives. Once we accomplish that goal we will be able to reflect on much we have progressed.
I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful. I am no longer sure of myself, and the paintings appear as in a dream. Vincent Van Gogh

Key 2Competence
"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come your way. The harder you work, the better you get."

This key means that if we commit hard everyday to achieve our goals we will have a good life. The harder we work now the greater our reward will be in the future. Also when we work hard many opportunities will come to us and they will lead us to better ourselves. We need to have competence when we are passionate about something we want to do. 

Competence, like truth, beauty, and contact lenses, is in the eye of the beholder. Laurence J. Peter

Key 3Concentration
"Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself “Is this the best use of my time?” before you start anything."

This key states that we should reflect on how we use our time. There will be a time to reflect on how we have taken advantage of the time we have. If we did something good or something bad. Did we use that time to improve our self or to make our self worse. If we want to get a good score on a test or tryout for a sport we dedicate our time to improve our self and make sure we try our best. If we don't do that we might waste our time that will surely make us worse. we should reflect if what we are doing is the right thing.
Concentration is one of the happiest things in my life. Haruki MurakamiImage result for concentration

Key 4Common Sense
  • Train your mind
  • think things through
  • listen to your intuition
  • learn from setbacks
     This key states that we need to have common sense if we want to be successful. It means that we should train our mind to think positive and good things. That when we are faced with a difficult time we should think through. That we need to analyze the situation and think how we will deal with it. When it says that we should listen to our intuition it means that we should listen to our sense of doing good. If we want to do something that will better ourselves we should follow it. And lastly. we should learn from setbacks and just because something didn't work out it doesn't mean we failed. 
It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something. Franklin D. Roosevelt

Key 5Creativity
"Except the fact that every human being is a genius.  The hallmark of creativity is asking questions.  The people who are most creative ask the most questions."
This key means that we should use our imaginations to overcome any problems we face in life. To create new solutions for the problems that we all face now a days. we should also ask creative questions so we can gather new information on a subject we might now a lot about.   In order to be creative, you need to be able to view things in new ways or from a different perspective. Among other things, you need to be able to generate new possibilities or new alternatives. Tests of creativity measure not only the number of alternatives that people can generate but the uniqueness of those alternatives. the ability to generate alternatives or to see things uniquely does not occur by change; it is linked to other, more fundamental qualities of thinking, such as flexibility, tolerance of ambiguity or unpredictability, and the enjoyment of things heretofore unknown. 
"Without change there is no innovation, creativity, or incentive for improvement. Those who initiate change will have a better opportunity to manage the change that is inevitable." William Pollard

Key 6Consideration
"The quality of your relationships with other people will determine your success in life."
"Develop the people skills you need to become a better communicator.  Take courses in listening, speaking, etc."
"If you were to learn one new word a day, within 5 years, you’ll be the best educated person in history."
This key means that we should consider other people when doing something. That we should not leave them out out of an activity. thoughtful and sympathetic regard. It is one of the six elements that must be present for a contract to be enforceable. Consideration must be both legally sufficient and bargained-for by the receiving party.to keep in mind; take into account; make allowance for. we should consider also the environment around us and take care of it while we still can.

Key 7Consistency
"Dependable, steady predictable work is always superior to fast spurts of work."

"Be consistent in your relationships, your family, friends, your boss, your work.  Be the person that people can depend upon.  That if you say you’ll do something you do it.."

To have consistency means that you will always work hard everyday until you achieve your goals. That no matter how hard the path is you will always work hard. That you will not get distracted by other things that won't help you succeed in life. That you will always keep up with your work no matter what. If you are consistent you will have nothing to worry about because you will have everything worked out if you try your best everyday. That also you will not cheat on your everyday life activities.

Key 8Commitment
"No success is possible without commitment.  The ability to commit yourself whole heartily is the basis of achieving all success."
"Become totally absorbed in your work.  Be totally committed."

 This means that if you want to achieve something you will have to commit in order for you to be able to achieve it. No one is successful just because of luck they have committed to their work for days, weeks, months, even years to get to where they're are. Even if it takes a long time to accomplish a goal but the more you are into it, the less time it will feel.
Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work. Vince Lombardi
Image result for commitment

Key 9Courage

"The fear of failure is the single greatest reason for failure in life."


Key 10Confidence
"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again ."
This key state that if we want to be successful we must first have confidence in our self.We should practice everyday if we want to achieve our goals. That no matter how many obstacles we must face we will need to have confidence. That we need to analyze the situation and think how we will deal with it. When it says that we should listen to our intuition it means that we should listen to our sense of doing good.
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence. Helen Keller
Image result for confidence

Reflection
 The keys can benefit me by acting on them everyday. To have clarity on the things i do. To have competence. Use common sense. Have creativity. Have consideration for others. Have consistency,. Be committed to the things i love to do. Have the courage to admit failure. And to have confidence.The one that i am applying now is having confidence in myself. I will incorporate the other keys by having more specific goals that will help me be a better person.

Character and Personality

From what i learned about this lecture is that character and personality are two different things. Character is how you are described and how you act towards people you meet. Personality is mostly how you look and how look to others in their point of view. I learned that our character effects our personalities because many people act in a different way. If we have a good character our personalities will be good and we will have more people to be friends with and we will have more people to help us out. if we have a bad character we will have a bad personality and no one will be able to get close to us. If we want to be success we need to have a good character and a good personality.
