Student Success Statement
"You will go far with CTR"-Mr. Haymore


Reflection: Well Mr. Haymore I doubt this is a goodbye since my brother attends the school for 3 more years. But one will go far when you choose the right, you have always encouraged us to be people that do the right. I can admit I have done the right these four years I even still carry the CTR card. When one chooses to do the right many positive outcomes one has. Choosing the right anytime anywhere with anyone is the right things to do. Take in consideration there are many things that will lead to choosing the wrong but we have to learn to overcome them because they are a obstacle to our path.

Becoming your best

The 12 principles Of highly Successful Leaders




1. Be true to character
Quote: Be true to yourself, help others, make each day your masterpiece, make friendship a fine art, drink deeply from good books - especially the Bible, build a shelter against a rainy day, give thanks for your blessings and pray for guidance every day. John Wooden
Reflection: Being true to character means being true to yourself. It means that you will not only build character but improve on it. There are many traits that make up a character, whether they are good ones or bad ones is up to you. You decide how your character will be represented.This can help us be better people and allow others to see us for who we are as people and not the blanket of lies we put above us.


2. Use your imagination 
Quote: Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere. Carl Sagan 
Reflection: I guarantee you that using your imagination inspires everyone to think outside the box. What i am trying to say is that many times we need our imaginations to imagine  us with our career lets say and working hard, having our own home, and maybe of one day having a family with your loved one. For example me I use my imagination to think big and see myself 5 years from now. I know that i want to be working and not be living with my parents not because i don't like my parents i love them but more because i want to become independent and not rely on them . Imaginations expands one thinking because it goes beyond thinking its creating a whole different things whether it be about you and your goals. 

3. Apply the power of knowledge
Quote:Human behavior flows from three main sources: desire, emotion, and knowledge.
- Plato
Reflection:Without knowledge you are empty. Knowledge is very important it helps us process information in a logical way. This means that we should apply our knowledge to anything we do. If we do not then we are not powerful or liberal. Education is the premise of progress in everything. Either it be society, or your family.

4. Never Give Up
Quote: Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than the one with all the facts.
- H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
Reflection: Giving up is like letting everyone smack you across the face. Why I say that is because giving up can deal with anything whether it be school related or with friends, family, or even yourself. Its like if I were ti give up already in school when I am so close to graduating and for me to not come to class, not do homework, never pay attention, when I am on the path to graduate and will graduate. But me giving up would affect me in having my High School diploma and showing my parents that all their hard work was a waste of time because their daughter didn't even graduate high school. If I give up I would give the power to all those people that have put me down saying i would not graduate high school and give them a reason to put me down even more. But I have different plans that is why I am not giving up on school because i want to better myself show my family i can make it and if I never give up and I can complete and have success on everything i put my mind to.

5. Find Peace and Balance
Quote:Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony.
-Thomas Merton
Reflection: Peace and balance are things that help one to be calm you can say. Why well peace is tranquility and balance an even distribution. There fore its an even distribution with peace and many other things. Peace is important for those stressful times that one feels down. Peace is for when your writing your essay. Peace is when you at work. Peace is in different situations but it should always take part in your life.


6. Live the Golden Rule
Quote: The Golden Rule finds no limit of application
- Unknown
Reflection: The golden rule on life it's not just what do you for yourself. It's how you treat people decently. The golden rule. There isn't big anything better than the golden rule. It's in every major religion in one language or another.To keep the Golden Rule we must put ourselves in other people's places, but to do that consists in and depends upon picturing ourselves in their places.You must follow your passion and do something that's close to your heart. And I think that that's very important, well, to be successful and to be happy.

7. Build And maintain trust
Quote:"It takes two to do the trust tango--the one who risks (the trustor) and the one who is trustworthy (the trustee); each must play their role." --Charles H. Green, The Trusted Advisor
Reflection : What this means is that trust is a big foundation in ones life and determines how you are with others. There fore its an even distribution with trust and many other things. Trust is important for those stressful times that one feels down.It takes a lot for let's say a person to open up to someone and tell them things that they aren't used to telling to others. It all depends on how we intake many things.

8. Quick to listen and slow to wrath
Quote :Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.
-Napoleon Hill
Reflection:this is like Thinking before you speak just doesn't benefit you but others around you as well. Many people often get the wrong intention from not hearing everything and hearing what they want to hear. Depending on the person it will either kill them inside to not take charge and talk right away. But sometimes it better to just listen to hear what is true and the real story.  As an extension of good listening skills, you need to develop the ability to reflect words and feelings and to clarify that you have understood them correctly. Direct the thoughts and further encourages them to continue speaking. Myself I am a person that will not hear other people out because I'm so stubborn but luckily I am working on this. Why because my mouth goes wild and my temper does as well as soon as i hear something that has to deal with me or my family. That is why it benefits me to listen to everything completely and maybe even different people to see before i act.

9. Lead with vision
Quote:Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others. Jonathan Swift

Reflection:Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe. Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. You have to have a big vision and take very small steps to get there. You have to be humble as you execute but visionary and gigantic in terms of your aspiration. In the Internet industry, it's not about grand innovation, it's about a lot of little innovations: every day, every week, every month, making something a little bit better.  Making it more clear to one to see the reality.

11. Do what matters most.
Quote:" What matters is to live in the present, live now, for every moment is now. It is your thoughts and acts of the moment that create your future. The outline of your future path already exists, for you created its pattern by your past."
- Sai Baba
Reflection:What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us.  If we do things that are not important to our lives then we are not living to our full potential. If we change this and do everything that is important then we will be able to do things that matter the most to ourselves and in return show others that we get things done and in an orderly way.

12. Be accountable
Quotes:Most of all, be honest with yourself and make sure those in political office, our so called public servants, are being honest, holding them accountable for their actions!
- David Pratt
Reflection:True equality means holding everyone accountable in the same way, regardless of race, gender, faith, ethnicity - or political ideology. A person may cause evil to others not only by his actions but by his inaction, and in either case he is justly accountable to them for the injury. Realizing that we've surrendered our self-esteem to others and choosing to be accountable for our own self-worth would mean absorbing the terrifying fact that we're always vulnerable to pain and loss.


Reflection: Being true to character means being true to yourself. It means that you will not only build character but improve on it. Many times we need our imaginations to imagine  us with our career lets say and working hard, having our own home, and maybe of one day having a family with your loved one.  Knowledge is very important it helps us process information in a logical way.  Giving up is like letting everyone smack you across the face. Why I say that is because giving up can deal with anything whether it be school related or with friends, family, or even yourself. Peace and balance are things that help one to be calm you can say. Why well peace is tranquility and balance an even distribution.Trust is important for those stressful times that one feels down.It takes a lot for let's say a person to open up to someone and tell them things that they aren't used to telling to others.Thinking before you speak just doesn't benefit you but others around you as well. Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication.Do everything that is important then we will be able to do things that matter the most to ourselves. All these different meaning help us understand how to be highly successful leaders this helps us all and benefits us all. It is important to keep these in mind because it will benefit us in a everyday life due to it telling us how to do certain things.

ten tips for being more truthful

Ten tips for being more truthful
-Barbara A. Lewis
TEN TIPS


1. Make a commitment to tell the truth.
Quote: The highest compact we can make with our fellow is, -- ‘Let there be truth between us two forever more.’
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
2. Tell someone about your commitment.
Quote :If your energy is as boundless as your ambition, total commitment may be a way of life you should seriously consider.
- Joyce Brothers
Reflection: What commitment to tell the truth is to not lie about things. Whether it be for school or work or even with friend and families why lie about it. Stick to your word being true not false. One day the truth will be told and you will stand as a lair or your conscious will kill you. Commitment is a big responsibility. You can make a commitment out of anything whether it be telling your mom you will do the chores she assigned you. Or even to doing your final draft for school. Or who knows just getting to work on time instead of late and getting a lecture from your boss or them getting the wrong idea from you just from breaking a commitment you made yourself. Don't let people or situations interfere with your truth and commitment. Yes, many time ones will get overturned to doing other things but don't let the obstacles get in the way.

3.Think before you give a dishonest answer.
Quote:Time will inevitably uncover dishonesty and lies; history has no place for them.
-Norodom Sihanouk
Reflection:After you reflect you know you can’t be dishonest so you say the truth. Often we just speak but when we reflect on the words we are speaking, we can change what we intitially planned to say. This helps us understand the situation better and it involves a deeper thinking as to what we ourselves would react when hearing the answer.We need to think about what we are going to say before we say something that is not true which leads people to believe are doing something for that reason when it is not true at all.

4. Be careful of when and how you use exaggeration, sarcasm, or irony.
Quote:"There are some people so addicted to exaggeration that they can't tell the truth without lying."
-Josh Billings
Reflection:  Exaggeration and sarcasm and irony are all well depending when and how you used them. Many people take advantage of it and use it for lies. A lie depending on the status is sometimes okay for a joke to play around but not for serious situations.

5.Be careful not to twist the truth or leave part of it out
Quote:The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.
 -Winston Churchill
Reflection: No matter how much you try to cover up a lie and make it realistic the truth will always come out. I can guarantee you will break or your conscious will bug you so much to tell the truth. Yes sometimes a lie isn't a big deal but there's certain points the lying should stop and truth will be told. To lie it is a crime because you will lie find it easy to do so and think everything will be alright and continue to lie it will become an addiction for you. But is lying worth it all because lets say someone know the truth you have to think, will people be hurt, will people trust you, will there just be disappointment.

6.Don;t indulge in little white lies.
Quote: "Lies will always spin out control; little lies will gradually become big ones.
 -Kemmy Nola
Reflection: Don't let people or situations interfere with your truth and commitment. Yes, many time ones will get overturned to doing other things but don't let the obstacles get in the way.We need to think about what we are going to say before we say something that is not true which leads people to believe are doing something for that reason when it is not true at all.A lie depending on the status is sometimes okay for a joke to play around but not for serious situations.I can guarantee you will break or your conscious will bug you so much to tell the truth. Yes sometimes a lie isn't a big deal but there's certain points the lying should stop and truth will be told. To lie it is a crime because you will lie find it easy to do so and think everything will be alright and continue to lie it will become an addiction for you.After you reflect you know you can’t be dishonest so you say the truth. Often we just speak but when we reflect on the words we are speaking, we can change what we intitially planned to say.

7. Watch out for silent lies.
Quote:"The cruelest lies are often told in silence."
-R.L. Stevenson
Reflection: What this means is that every lie is a lie no matter if its big or small or even nothing at all. Yes, many time ones will get overturned to doing other things but don't let the obstacles get in the way.A harmless or trivial lie, especially one told to avoid hurting someone’s feelings.These lies can backfire however, and even though they are small, they are still lies. Lies do not benefit and they put you at risk of creating a bigger problem or lie.

8. When you catch yourself lying,throw your mouth into reverse.
Quote:Lying increases the creative faculties, expands the ego, and lessens the frictions of social contacts.
-Clare Boothe Luce
reflection: Being truthful has always been important. Leaving any detail out of the truth can be considered lying. The full truth is the only real truth. Not being truthful can get you into trouble.You can not hide the truth forever. You may be able to work around it but you will never escape it.

9. Talk your yourself
Quote: “Self-talk reflects your innermost feelings.”
― Asa Don Brown
Reflection: This means that always speak to No one else will ever know you better than yourself. It is impossible because you are a uniquely yourself. When you lie the person that you are hurting the most is yourself. It is direct collateral damage to your self character. When you are honest to everyone else and honest in general, you are honest to yourself.

10. Treat Yourself when you tell the truth
Quote:"Treat yourself with love and respect, and you will attract people who show you love and respect."
-Unknown
Reflection: When you tell the truth which should be always treat yourself. Do the right things in life that life will bring your bright things for you. Sometimes you won't even have to treat yourself because life will bring bright things your way.:) Why get treated right when you know you don't deserve that is called misery of one own's will. Why live with that misery when you can tell the truth and tell the truth.

Reflection: They benefit us because they teach us in general about lying and how it harms us. Well also harms people around us but in general we all get affected by it . It could be a small lie or a big lie but its all the same.  Now I apply it by being truthful to myself and others. not telling lies as well. They go with my life planning goals because  it will demonstrate that my only way to success is doing actions that will get me to success.
