Quotes!!

Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.

It is not the end, it is not even the beginning of the end, but perhaps it is the end of the beginning.

~Winston Churchill

There are 2 types of Pain in the world.

Pain that hurts you.

Pain that changes you!

Wise Decisions!

Who I admire!

I guess it’s my brother I look up to. His name is Dustin.

He is the only sibling of mine that has gone to college so far.

So I look up to him cause I want to do my best and be able to go that far and maybe even further.

Someone else I admire or look up to would have to be my dad.

Because when he sets his my to something almost nothing can stop him.

My Adventures! / Bucket List!

The one Adventure I want to take that I’m serious about is to go to college at the University Of Texas At Austin.

I want to become a zoologist. I want to specialize in the study of wolves and lemurs.

I’ve dreamed of working with animals my whole life and that is one goal in life that I’m determined to accomplish.

What makes me above and below the line...

The things that make me go below the line are when people bring me down or even when I see people bring down others. Also when you’re excluded from a group of people. Sometimes I also have mean thoughts about myself, like during sports I think that I’m not good enough.

Things that make me go above the line are things like when you see someone and the first thing they say to you is a compliment.

Another thing that keeps me above the line is when my friends stick up for me. When I wake up energetic and with that feeling that ‘Today is going to be a good day.’

Listening to music is my trampoline!

H OW M Y D E C I S I O N S A F F E C T OT H E R S !

Depending on the decision I make, my decisions can hurt people and make them lose trust and faith in me and other decisions can help people and encourage them. It just depends.

BE IN G A R E S PO N S I BL E D E CI S I O N MAKER...

To be responsible you need to take ownership for the decisions you make, good or bad. If you make a bad decision then you have to take responsibility and fix it.

Wise Decisions Making wise decisions can help you throughout your life. It can also help you make big decisions that can effect the people around you. That’s why it’s important to know how to make wise decisions because the effect could be a positive or a negative effect.

A great leader has a great deal of influence on others. They take ownership for there actions and try to improve all the time. They stay focused on what they want to achieve. They keep the positive people around then and help the negative people become positive. We are all leaders, it;s just some are better than others.
