"The six attitudes Of High Achiever's"

High Achievers.....

1.Make no small plans

Reflection: What this means is that do not make small plans therefore do big,huge , jumbo plans. Why you may ask well maybe because small plans do not require much thought and just very little thinking. In other words small plans are lack of effort because not much is done to be involved in it. But if it's huge plan you think about it over and over and make sure every detail in your plan is accurate. As well as appropriate and processed well that you do not fail at it maybe but work your way up towards that big plan. A small plan can be as paying attention in class yes its important but plan out more that you won't let your education be disrupted. That you will follow procedures and do all homework, classwork, come to school, come to tutoring if necessary. 

Quote:  "Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood and probably themselves will not be realized."-Daniel Burnham

                                       

2. Do What They Fear


   Reflection: You have to get out of your comfort zone because if you fear something then that would be one motive or excuses to stop what you want to do. Fear should be a goal for you to overcome and once you overcome your fear then feel that there is many things that you can do.that are you willing to take whatever comes to it like making the people in power be against you by fearing your idea. The quote i have chose means to do one thing that scares you every day, its more of a challenge in your courage. A lot of people would go and try to reach their goal, but along the way someone tells them to give up because they don't have that potential to  work in the job or industries.What they have to do is not give up and  prove them wrong, and this  would make them fear you. This would make them fear you because they saw how much potential you really have and this can scare them. 
Quote:  "The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown."-H. P. Lovecraft


                           

3. Are willing to prepare
Reflection:    We do not like to wait and prepare for something greater, we all ways want our recompense right away instead of waiting for it to get better. 
Being prepared for anything is one of the most essential key thing for survival.Its also your responsibility to be prepared for school every single day otherwise you wont be able to graduate. In the world everyone needs to be prepared otherwise we wont get far in life which is very important. Somebody who is never prepared will never strive or make in life between his/ hers career between a person that always strives and is prepared. What the quote means is if you’re wiling to sacrifice for your passion then you should be prepared with the hard working coming with it. 
Quote:  "Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure." -Confucius



                         

4. Are willing to risk failure 
Reflection:  Willing to risk failure  is to risk failure is important because you will not always be perfect. Life will always have it ups and downs and you have to admit to failure when you couldn’t make it right.  Failure is in every person there is not a single person that has not tried a something and failed. If they say they have never failed is either because the are lying or they just have not mature enough to accept failure. This is applied everywhere, not only at school or at the work force. An example of this is if a person decides to open a business and fails. It might not be because he was not good enough for his businesses to prosper, or for it to be known, but it could be that he was afraid of letting his little business fail that he did not think about every little detail, and therefore he risked everything.In order to be successful you need to take risk if you don't then you wouldn't know weather you will or not be successful. Just like the second ways says " great achievers do what they fear." If you fear to take risks than take it.
 Quote:  "The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks." -Mark Zuckerberg


                                   
5. Are Teachable
Reflection: Teachable being that eligible to be taught and get knowledge. Therefore someone that has the time and patience and wanting most of all to be expanded in their knowledge. Like in the picture above the BEST LEADERS are TEACHABLE which in a way is true. You have to be taught first in order to know who you want to be. If the person is not willing to be taught then how are they going to reach true success, everyone comes from being taught no one comes out of the blue knowing everything that’s why there is people to guide you and teach you for then later on you can reach the success you want.
Quote: “What I believe is that all clear-minded people should remain two things throughout their lifetimes: Curious and teachable.” ― Roger Ebert


                         
6. Have Heart 
Reflection: Having a heart well obviously everyone has one of-course to live. Nut as in being compassionate, loving others, being kind, honest, trustworthy. Having a heart can mean so many things but to me is being compassionate, whether it be towards a stranger or someone in your family or a friend is practically having emotions.  What this can be is lets say you see a homeless man and hes hungry and you have a spare lunch, or something your not going to eat, have a heart and instead of throwing it away give it to them. It could also mean be merciful; show pity, be considerate or be sympathetic. 
Quote:  “Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.”― Charles Dickens

9 ways to be happy and make something of your life

Gordon B. Hinckley

1. Be Grateful

Reflection: Be grateful means that you appreciate what someone gives you. Or something that comes at you. It is a way you can say like a blessing that occurs and for eternity of course you going to be grateful for it. Grateful is whether someone give you something or something went your way. For example one way to be grateful is if your parents bought you a new phone, another way to be grateful can me as simple as waking up to a new day and being healthy being able to live one more day of your life is gratitude whether it be in you or a god you believe in. Grateful in other words is thankful or appreciation of kindness. 

Quote:"Whatever we are waiting for - peace of mind, contentment, grace, the inner awareness of simple abundance - it will surely come to us, but only when we are ready to receive it with an open and grateful heart."-Sarah Ban Breathnach

2. Be Smart
Reflection:Being smart is in a way important in life cause you have to either book smart or street smart and if you are not either then you wont get by in life. That's why its important to pay attention in school in what they teach you because then it will impact you in whatever career you choose to go into. Everyone in the world is smart because we all have knowledge. when there is something that you don't know you are still smart its just absence of knowledge. Ignorance does not mean your are not smart, you cant be judged by what you don't know. I will apply this by doing what i have to do and do my corrections and know when i am right or wrong.
 Quote:"A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them."-John C. Maxwell

                                  

3. Be involved in Good Works
Reflection: Be involved in good work is being active in something that benefits your or others for the well being. For example it could be being involved in helping your community to have a garden and promote healthy ways to be. Or being in an organization that helps to provide shelter or food to the homeless. It doesn't matter what your involved in as long as it has a positive outcome. Whether the outcome benefits you or others be active in it and it will benefit you maybe not now but in the future. Also as long as you feel proud of what you are doing that's great because only you know whats great for you. 
Quote: "The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today."-Elbert Hubbard

4. Be clean

Reflection:  Be clean can mean so many things from just cleaning up your mess or after yourself. Also to have a clean mind or clear heart as in to not hold grudges and be open minded. Clean can also mean from your body therefore clean from drugs or alcohol. The meaning varies on the definition you give it and the tone or meaning behind how you use the word in context. But to me here this word means to be clean in mind why mind because when you always hold on to negative things in your head you will not be able to concentrate and to have deep thought on positive things that actually matter and benefit you in your life. Whether it be that when you go to a party and see everyone get drunk be clean and don't do the same especially if you are a minor.

 Quote: "Be strong in body, clean in mind, lofty in ideals." -James Naismith






                   
5. Be True
Reflection: Being true is very important you have to be true to yourself as in you cant fake the person youre trying to be. The most important thing is that you got to be truthful to the people around you because once they realize that you were being dishonest they will not trust you again.

Quote: “A man is never more truthful than when he acknowledges himself a liar.” - Mark Twain


                                 


6. Be Positive
Reflection:  Being positive is always a good thing because it means that you understand. If something negative happened to you and you are positive then you know that things happened for a reason. you spend more energy being negative than to positive. why spend extra energy for nothing. is important because you need to be considerate of the people around you and keep off the negativity. The quote i have chosen means to keep your face in a smile and never show your shadow as in your frown. it important to keep a positive mood in life because i mean how needs a downer in a relationship or in a job. Its best to higher somebody who motivates you to do bigger and brighter things. 
Quote: "If you have a positive attitude and constantly strive to give your best effort, eventually you will overcome your immediate problems and find you are ready for greater challenges." -Pat Riley



         

7. Be Humble
Reflection: Be grateful for what you have and admit your not always perfect No matter how talented you are, there is almost always somebody who can do something better than you. Look to those who are better and consider the potential for improvement. Nobody is the best at something.Judging others causes strife in relationships, and it prevents new relationships from forming. Perhaps even worse, it prevents us from trying to improve ourselves. Everybody makes mistakes. Everything we do is a result of what many other people have done to us. It is all because of the people around us that we get shaped and become better persons at some point so that we could achieve our goals.
Quote:   "Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy."
-Norman Vincent Peale



                            

8.Be still
Reflection:  To me When you learn to be still you you have the key to to be open minded and become aware the things around you. Being still will give you the focused you need to reflect and clear your mind.. You always try your best to be a humble person and find ways to make others happy. An example of being still is, when your parent gives you something, you should appreciate it and thank him or her. The opposite of being still is if your parents works hard to give you what you want and you don't appreciate it and you wish u had something better. Be humble and appreciate. I will start being still in my everyday life by showing how much i care for everyone in my life. I wont get in fights or do drugs and do any other nonsense. When yo are humble and still you will see there is more to appreciate in life ad you will be thankful for everything you have

Quote: Once I knew only darkness and stillness... my life was without past or future... but a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped to the rapture of living. -Helen Keller

                                           
    

9. Be Prayerful 
Reflection:  This means when someone has belief or faith in a higher power that walks among us in a way. Like a person that's invisible or watching over you like a guardian.

Reflection:

I have went over 9 ways on how to be successful. 9 ways to follow in life and ways that will help me be in the right path. Started off being grateful because I believe that the things we already have are plenty that's why there's no excuse of not being happy, just be grateful that you're living and moving forward. Being smart because nothing comes easy , you gotta be a smart person willing to set goals and getting things done that will help you achieve them. We should not reject what we believe in because of others or because of  what we are apart of. We should respect our beliefs and stay committed to them and not turn our back.

Commitment

Commitment

     Def: the state or quality of being dedicated to a cause, activity, etc.

      Quote: “Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek” – Mario Andretti



Reflection: Commitment overall is a huge key to having a really organized life. Without commitment and assuring yourself what you’re going to do or keep it clean, your life will become a big mess. To some people committing to something is a serious thing depending if its eternal otherwise it should not be so hard to commit to catching up with work, completing assignments, or committing to do something for another individual. If you can commit that means you’re responsible, trustworthy, and honest about a lot of things. Committing to finishing something can really be a treat because you will feel proud of yourself for committing to something. All in all commitment is really important and if you cannot be honest with yourself or with the other person do not put yourself in that situation. 

Caring

Caring 

Def:

displaying kindness and concern for others

Quote:

A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring, sharing person inside.
- Denis Waitley

Reflection:
This basically means that one with a smile is one can brighten someone else day. You never know what one goes through and I'm sure you yourself when your feeling depressed wants someone to be there to support them and care for them. So one should show the care back because it really does help when one knows that others are there for them. For example if you see a friend looks down ask them whats wrong to show you care and I'm sure they would appreciate it.
