It Couldn’t Be Done
Related Poem Content Details
Somebody said that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!
Somebody scoffed: “Oh, you’ll never do that;
At least no one ever has done it;”
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat
And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.
There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure,
There are thousands to point out to you one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing
That “cannot be done,” and you’ll do it.

1.In my own words the poem means no matter how "hard'' something is you can do it.
ReplyDelete2.Based upon my experience this means that you can do anything you put your mind to.No matter what anyone says you can do it.
4.The video and quote are similar because they are both telling us to go out and get what we want in life.They are both telling us that no matter what anyone says or thinks it your dream go accomplish it.They differ because the video is telling us we don't accomplish things because were scared to fail and the quote is saying no matter what anyone says,anything is able to be accomplished.
5.This matter because in life we're going to have people who doubt us.They will tell us it's not possible or to just give up.They say these things because their dreams we're probably crushed once.But no matter what anyone says you can do anything you dream.For example,before Einstein was the genius everybody knows him as his teachers and parents would tell him he's to dumb to accomplish anything.Look at him now he's one of the smartest people to ever be alive.
I can apply this thinking to my life as a short of motivation.No matter what anyone tells me I can do anything I dream of.I can use this mindset in school and in sports.I can use this mindset in school because if I have a really hard test,no matter how "hard" everybody says it is if I study I can pass it.Just because everybody else is complaining doesn't mean I have to join.I can apply this to sports because there's going to be people who tell me i'm not good or I'm not going to make it to the NBA but I have to keep working.I have to do what others won't.I have to make sacrifices in order to do what I want.
1) To summarize the poem, it is really saying that you can't let other people's opinions bring you down. They can say it is impossible, but nothing is impossible if you don't try at first. You can't succeed if you don't put the effort forward. So stop being lazy, get up and out of the house, and do what everyone said that you couldn't.
ReplyDelete2) Based upon my experience, this means to me that I can't give up if I don't even try. I have been told all my life, you can't do that because of my gender, or because of my size. I didn't know that you wrote the instructions to my life. As long as I motivate myself and keep the little voice within me, I will succeed. Women, especially, are told they can't do certain tasks because men want to be the powerful gender. We have proven them wrong, because it is possible for everyone to succeed.
4) The video and the quote are similar because they both talk about never giving up, even if people try to pull you down. The video talks about opportunities and asking yourself the questions needed to succeed. The poem similarly states that the man didn't give up because he motivated himself and wouldn't let those people tell him otherwise. He worked hard for what he believed in, not for what other people thought. The two differ because the poem is talking about people bringing this man down and saying how it is impossible and that he will never be able to finish the task. On the other hand, the video talks about self-motivation and pursuing your dreams. The two are mostly similar, but there are some differences that you can spot.
5)Ultimately, this matters because if you believe in something, go for it. Chase your dreams and don't regret it, not even for one second. People in this world will tell you otherwise no matter what and you can't let them change your mindset. To give a more women-specific example, women want to become an engineer, but there are other people will and most definitely tell them no because it is a male job. Who ever said that you can't become whatever you wanted to be when you grew up. When we were little, our teachers let us dream about what we wanted our profession to be when we were older. We all said stuff like firefighters and policemen/women, all kinds of jobs. No one told you otherwise because it was and is something that you believe in.
I can apply the concepts to my life to make it better by believing in what i want to succeed in, not what other people tell me to do. When I'm a little bit older, I want to pursue my dream of becoming a photographer. More specifically, a forensic photographer. I have yet to find any type of complications of people wanting to hold me back because they don't believe it is impossible. Not that many jobs in this world are impossible, but for some reason, a lot of people do believe that certain people can't do certain tasks. It's great to have something that I can believe in, I just have to put in the hard work and not give up on my dreams. As long as I can keep that as my mindset, I will not fail and I will continue onto the pass of success.
1) In my own words I think it means that a lot of people going to say that you cant do it but you could do it.
ReplyDelete2) This means to me because so I can learn. I can learn what people going to think about me and I just ignore it.
3) Notes
- If you fail you don't want to fail again
-Their are many reasons why we act.
-Ask yourself some question
-You don't run scare
-You need to say yes to your dreams
3) The video is similar because it is talking about motivation. It both talking what you have to do and not to do. The last thing is that people are not going to believe you.
5) This matter to me because I know that is going to happen to me.I have to keep myself motivated. When i'm gong to follow my dreams a lot of people going to not believe me. I just have to try my best and ignore them. The last thing is believe in yourself.
This can make my life better because it is telling me what is going to happen when you follow your dream. For example, to ignore all the people that is not going to believe in me. I will have to practice. Never quit. Another thing is that I will have to I have to make sacrifices in order to do what I want.
1) Don't let anyone tell you that you can't do something. It's better to try than to not do anything at all.
ReplyDelete2) The poem means you can't let anyone tell you what to do. If someone can't do something, it doesn't mean you can't do it either. Don't let the words of others stop you from doing something.
4) The video and quote both say don't let other people stop you. The quote focuses more on not letting the words of the people around you affect you. The video however says you can do anything you want only if you put the effort in it.
5) This quote matters because it tells people to not give up or stop something because of other people. Lots of people don't try to accomplish things because other people tell them they can't or won't do it. The quote tells us that you can accomplish things even if people are telling you negative stuff.
I can apply this to my life by doing more stuff without other people stopping me. I'll keep growing and doing more great things. Many people tell me I can't do stuff, but by not listening to them I can still do things.
1. The poem summarized in my own words is that people are always going to doubt you and tell you that its never been done so you cant do it. So you just have to ignore them and try it and then you see that you can do it.
ReplyDelete2 Bases upon my experience I have been told before that I couldn't do something because it wasn't possible for me to do it. But then when I did it I accomplished it and it felt good to prove them wrong.
4. The video and quote are similar because they both talk about how you shouldn't let people deny your dream. And that you shouldn't let people tell you what you can and cant accomplish. That you shouldn't let people approve your dream because it was given to you not them. Also that there will be thousands of people to tell you that it can not b e done. The video and quote are different because on some parts the video talks about how this is the only moment you get so don't wait around for things to be just right. It also talks about how all we want is for everybody to accept us for who we are. What the quote talked about was that on everything you do one person is always going to tell you that you cant to it. But unless you try then you don't know if it could be done.
5. Ultimately, this quote and video matter because its telling you to just try to do something even though people are going to doubt you. This also matters because I think that for students if somebody tells them they cant do it then they will just give up. Then they will fail even though they didn't even try to do it. Another reason why the quote and video matter is because a lot of people tend to listen to the negative people. People need to refuse the negative people and be with the people who are going to motivate you and tell you that you can do it.
I can apply these concepts to my life by when people are doubting me and telling me that I cant do it I should just ignore them. I should try to do it and I will probably accomplish it. Something I can do to make my life better is like Edgar Albert Guest says,"Just start to sing as you tackle the thing that "cannot be done," and you'll do it. Something else I can do to make my life better is to see what I want in life. Then I can transform myself to what i want. And I wont needs anybody denying my dreams.

ReplyDelete1. The basic outline of the poem is someone finding that people will always say that a goal "can't be done". The person who is the main focus of the poem is told this repeatedly in different ways, but still chooses to go after their goal and achieves it right in front of the person who doubted them.
ReplyDelete2. Based on my understanding, this quote embodies the people who constantly tell you the risks and dangers of achieving your goal. If you're truly committed, you know those dangers already but choose to take a chance anyways. That perseverance, that motive to do what you mean to do, is the trait of someone who will be successful.
4. The video and poem highlight the message of overcoming fear in the face of a goal. The poem mainly focuses on not listening to those who tell you your goal isn't possible because "they've never seen it done before", while video goes through a variety of messages, including putting an emphasis on the question "what will be different by the time you die?".The video's main message is encouraging to leave a trace on this earth of your achievement, not to let life pass by.
5. This concept matters because many will stop because of their fears, sometimes brought on by others insecurities or doubts. Instilling fear in your children about what has never been done won't help them, we must teach them to plan and achieve what hasn't been done. Those who find that fear is stronger than their will are those who have been trained to be scared of the unknown. Being excited to do new things will get you much, much farther than sitting in a small world where everything has been done before. By doing brand new things, the rest of the world is introduced to your genius and your ability to be creative, to help the world.
I can easily apply this to my life as both a student and an artist. Students are taught to learn what has been given to them, to memorize information. That is an important value, because we learn how to solve problems that have been encountered before, and we learn the history of our people. However, the creativity and daring points of view are taken away by this method of teaching. Projects in school are a great outlet for this part of personality, but art is my favorite way to express this. Art can be done in ways never seen before, perhaps like Van Gogh or like Picasso, who chose to go against the oppressive values of the classical practices. They made things that were new, but weren't appreciated by the critics at first. This is a great example of going against fear and doubt.
1- The poem is talking about someone saying that something wold never be done. There are many people that are saying that nothing can be done.
ReplyDelete2- Based upon my experience this means that things can be done if you do t the right way. Getting something done can make you move to another thing or idea. If you did not accomplish something you can't get it done.
4- The video and poem are similar by encouraging you to do your best. The poem is saying that you can do it and you will, and the video is saying that this is your only moment that you will have. They both differ because the video explains about you winning and the poem is explaining about you trying your hardest to get things done. The poem explains that you should get things done because you want to move on. The video is explaining that you should win because you want your future to be your greatest ability in your life.
5- This matters because the more things you get done the better you will be. You have to put effort to get things done the right way. You can't let other things bring you down because it will affect you and your life. This is important because this can make your life better in the future. In the video it says, " You have to put effort in yourself " because you have to put effort do great things in life. Never let things bring you down because it will lead you to failure.
I can apply this concept to my life to make it better by doing the right thing. If someone says that I can't do it I wouldn't believe them. I can do it no matter what they say. This applies to my life because if you can do something you will succeed. My greatest ability is my career and dreams. Never say that you can't do it because you can do it. In the video it says, " Say yes to your dreams, " because your dreams will be true.
The video is telling you to win and choose the right path to having a great life. The poem is also telling you that you can do it. Whatever that can't be done you will do it. You have to follow your dreams to be great in life. You should always try hard because it will lead you to great thing that you would want. This matters because this is an important key to life and I can apply this to my life by winning and believe in my dreams for the future.
1. In summary, the poem "It Couldn't Be Done," by Edgar Albert Guest is saying that whether or not someone tells you can't, you should always go out and try. It doesn't matter how many people tell you you can't, it doesn't matter how many people know you can't. The only person's opinion that truly matters to your dreams, is yours.
ReplyDelete2. Based upon my understanding, if anyone tells you you can't, it's either because it's true, or they just can't believe it. So long as you believe you can, without a shadow of a doubt, you can. So long as you believe that anything is possible, it truly is.
4. The video and the quote are similar in ways that, they're both telling us that no matter who says no, or how many times you've messed up, so long as you go in without any regrets, you will be able to achieve what you want.
The video and the quote are different in ways that, the video is talking about how no matter how much you've messed up and made mistakes, keep going. The quote on the other hand is talking about how no one has ever done it, but the man does it anyways and succeeds. Basically, the quote is different because it doesn't really speak of failure.
5. These messages matter, because they make me want to try. These messages make me want to try, because of the amount of work these people put into the poem, the videos teach you to never give up. No matter how many times I've messed up, I've rarely given up, unless it was truly impossible. No matter how many times someone has told you no, or how many times you've messed up, always keep trying.
I plan on applying these concepts to my life by not giving up. Not giving up because "it's too hard," or "it's impossible." Anything is possible so long as you put your mind to it. So long as your heart is where your mouth is. If you're talking about failure, then you truly will fail. If you talk about success and put your heart to it. It'll happen.

1. To summarize the poem its basically saying that people will doubt on you and say you cant do it. But only you decide that for yourself and the only person that can push you is you. 2. This means to me that people will tell you can't do something but you have to believe in yourself and strive what you can do. DONT i mean DONT let someone tell you what you can accomplish and what you can't. 4.The video and the quote are similar because they both tell you not to give up on your dreams. They both persuade you into something and this one tells you that nobody can tell you what you can and can't accomplish. They differ because the quote is more catchy and the video is more serious and well said. 5.This ultimately matters because their are people that give up on there dreams because their is someone who tells them they cant do it. Everyone can do it, it might be hard it wont be easy but it definitely will be worth it. Rather if its your body shape or perhaps its your grades or a creation. But, don't nobody tell you what you can accomplish besides yourself. You can apply this to your life by first not letting your friends push you around first. Tell them to stop telling you what you can do and what you cant do. Dont wait for the perfect moment because it will never happen. When you want it to happen its just gonna keep going in a cycle that you never know when it will happen. Throw your self into your dream and believe for whats yours if someone tells you your dream isn't possible. That's why people hate on you and then they get you depressed. So you get out there you fight for whats yours and prevent those bad people.
ReplyDelete1. The poem talks about how there will always be people that will say "you can't do it." But you need to prove them wrong with at least a try. You need confidence and courage to block out all the people that say you can't.
ReplyDelete2. Based upon my experience, this means that you can't let people who discourage you win. I've been in situations where I've been told I couldn't do it, even by my own family. But I just ignored them and went on to at least give it a try. For some things up to this point, I have proved them wrong but I still have work to do. You cannot let people like that influence you.
4. The video and quote are similar because they both tell you how people say you can't, or how we want other people's opinions rather than our own. The video and quote say that you shouldn't care about what other people say or how they judge you. I do not think the video and quote differ too much. I feel that they both give the same message with an example(s) and they both relay the same points.
5. This matters because there are people in this world that will try to prevent you from achieving your goals, because they didn't complete theirs. They will try and stop you by saying "you can't" and it is your job to ignore them and keep striving for excellence. People will stop making their dreams come true because some people are saying they can't, and they believe them. People get easily discouraged by others because they are afraid of being judged or being let down. But in reality, you shouldn't care about how others will judge you.
I can apply this to my life because I have been brought down by the opinions of others before. I have told people I will do this, and they'll say "yeah sure. You can't do it." And before, I did let those people run my life. I did let them bring me down and discourage me. But now, I feel that I'm improving on that. Improving to not listen to those type of people and keep going on my own path. I want to achieve my goals, but first I need to tell myself to ignore people who don't believe in me. Ignore the negativity. Ignore the fear of failure. I need to gain more confidence and courage to go out there and win.
1. The poem talks about how there will be people who tell you "you can't do it, that its never been done before." but you should try anyways.
ReplyDelete2. Bases upon my experience, this means that you shouldn't let people discourage you from trying. This also means that you don't need anybody to approve your dreams.
4. The quote and poem are similar because they both tell you that you shouldn't let people discourage from trying. They are also similar because they both talk about how you don't need someone to approve of your dreams. The quote and the poem are different because the poem talks about how you should try even if someone says you can't do it, while the video talks about how we should stop settling for less than what we actually deserve.
5. This matters because you shouldn't let people tell you "you can't do it." You don't need anybody to approve your dream. People will discourage you from trying but you should try anyways. The opportunity that you have might not be there next year so you should try even if people tell you that you will fail. You should keep trying even if you fail the first couple times cause eventually you will accomplish it.
I can apply this concept to my life because I could keep trying even if people tell me I will fail. I should try even if I fail, cause I will get it right eventually. I shouldn't need anybody to approve my dream. I could stop settling for less than what we actually deserve. I will win even if I fail.

ReplyDelete1) In my own words the poem is trying to say people hates and tell you u can't do something.
2) Based upon my experience this means to me that people who tells you can't do it but you can.
3) Notes:
- among the things that prevent us from acting is the fear of failure.
-we want everybody to like us and accept us.
-don't wait for things to be perfect.
-people only want to do what they already know how to do.
- people like to feel like they are king in the area of their comfort zone.
-things that affect us is that not wanting to take personal responsibility.
- we will come up with some kind of excuse to make it alright.
4) The video and quote are similar .Because the video and quote are different because the video you can see a image and the quote you have to picture it.
5) This matter because its helping you and other people to open our eyes .And to tell you to start worrying about your life while where young.And not mess up your life they want you to be successful and not to fail and if you do to try and try again to not give up.
I can apply this to my life because before i really didn't care about anything but know that i know i'm starting too. And to make it better i have to focus more on school and don't worry about others because there just going to bring you down.
1) This poem is about how many people will try to talk you out of doing things they've never done before. They will try to stop you from doing what you want to do and keep you from progressing in your life.
ReplyDelete2) Based off of my own experience, this means that you cannot let what people say to you, get to you. If you do, you will be just as unsuccessful as them. It is the way that you choose to ignore them and keep on doing what you're doing that determines just how strong you are independently.
3)*view in person*
4) The video and the quote are similar because they both talk about the way others watching you thrive in life will try and tell you that you can't do certain things. Also, they both refer to how we seek to get people's approval; how we are afraid to do things they do not like. They are different because the video talks more about life and the the quote just refers to people's opinions on what you do and how that affects us.
5) This matters, in my opinion, because this fear stops so many people from doing what they want to do every single day. We are so worried about what other people will say when we do something, we don't do it at all. People's way to convince you into thinking that you're not good enough is stronger than people's way of convincing you you can do whatever you want if you put your mind to it. At least, most of the time. If you can overcome the negative opinions and only focus on the positive ones, you are truly the strongest person I know.
I can apply this to the concepts of my life by choosing to ignore what other people say about me. I, in the end, am in control of what I feel. I will decide to rise above them and keep my head high all throughout my life. People will talk and I will hear them. I will just choose not to listen to them. I don't need other people to bring me down when I know I'm gonna make it to the top.
1.In my own words this poem mean you should never give up the things you desire in life no matter what anyone says you should always do what is right to you and you only.You shouldn't listen to anyone saying no or you cant do it, you should always stay positive and block out the haters.
ReplyDelete2.In my own experiences I have always been told that I couldn't do or that I should try something else because they always though it would be to hard for me but of course I never listened to them because I knew they didn't believe in me so I made them believe in me because it was probably the only way to do it.
3.The poem and the video both are the same in ways like they both talk about how you should never give up on your dreams and to fulfill them no matter what anyone says and they are also the same because they both talk about how other people will say you should never do that or that's impossible for you to do but in reality it is, you just have to put a little effort and put everything you have into your dream.
4.This matters in life because if you listened to every one that told you, you couldn't do it you would just give up and not try no matter how good you were u would not do it just because they told you it would be to hard for you and that it would be impossible if you did it.
1.) The poem is saying that people will doubt you , and won't believe on you. But just because people are saying negative things doesn't mean you need to give up and never try what you wanted to do ; at least try , and you will know if people where right about you .
ReplyDelete2.) Based upon my experience , this poem means that you won't know if you can do something unless you try to do it . If you are doubting yourself don't ! Try to do what you fair yourself on failing ; you might not fail and become successful and prove people wrong . Live your life knowing that you at least try.
3.) * video viewed.....
4.) The video and the poem are similar because they both share the statement of trying to see if you are able to do something. And they both motivate you to do what you thing is possible and what you fair to do . They are also different because the poem doesn't tell you what the meaning of the poem is, and the video gives you details of what they are tying to tell the people watching the video.
5.) This matters because many people don't follow their dreams because they always doubted themselves . And that't not how it's suppose to be ! People need to believe in themselves and ignore all negative comments of them not being able to do something good . The more you listen and take all negative things , the more you will doubt yourself .
I can apply this to my life to make it better , by ignoring all negative people and letting positive things in my life to be successful and a winner. I will apply this to my life to by making good choices and not giving up.
1. To summarize the poem, you should be you and not let anybody else stop you from chasing your dreams.
ReplyDelete2. To me this means that you shouldn't give up on your dreams and to continue being you. If people tell you, you can't do it don't listen to them. Be yourself and do what it takes to get higher in life. Don't let other people tell you that you can't do it.
4. The video and quote is similar because they both talk about how some people continue to strive for greatness instead of people telling them that you can't do it. Another part where there similar is when people tell you that it cannot be done. Sometimes the video and quote differ because there's a part where it tells you in the quote that there's always people there to stop you. In the video all it talk about was always strive for greatness and always chase the dream that was given to you.
5. I can apply this to my life because I always want to strive for greatness in life. There's times that I want to be a winner and be successful at the same time. There's a matter of time that people are gonna tell me that i can't do it but i don't care its the thought that counts of doing something that you really want to do. Nobody can stop you from what you want to do or be. This matters in my life because football is my grind time its the time where I want to be great and prove people wrong that it can be done instead of being impossible.
I can apply this to my life because there's people that tell me that I can't do it like in math and such sorts of things. There's people out there trying to stop us from reaching our full potential. This is important to me because I've been through that with the wrong environment of friends. The video and the quote combine in my mind that there's gonna be mistake that you endure and there's gonna be failures in times but continue to try and try again. This is important to my life because in football once we get tackled down you get back up and be ready for the next play and repeat again and again.
1) In my own words the poem means to keep going and don't let people decide your limit. Theirs going to be a lot of doubters but keep pushing.
ReplyDelete2) To me this means i have to improve physically and mentally to prepare to lock out the doubters. I can learn what people are going to think about me and i need to learn how to ignore it.
4) The video and the poem is similar because they both talk about people getting doubted and feeling the fear of what people say. They both informs us about doubters and how to keep going and chasing our dreams. They both show us how to get stronger and ignore the people who doubt us.
5) This matter to me because I know that it is going to happen to me.I have to believe in myself and stay motivated. Throughout my journey on the road that leads to my dreams their are going to be many people who doubt. I have to physically and mentally prepare myself and learn how to push the negativity out.This can make my life better because it is telling me what is going to happen when you follow your dream. For example, to ignore all the people that is not going to doubt me. I will have to practice locking the negative comments out. Never quit on my dreams no matter happens on my journey. Another thing is that I will have to make sacrifices in order to do what I want and be where I want.

1. The poem is saying to not let what others "possibl" or approval effect you and your motives. As said from the poem, "There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done" it's saying that there are people who are going tell you and talk down on you saying its impossible but your the only one who has a say in YOUR dreams. In your motives, your fate. And that's what the poem is trying to tell you.
2. During my experience of situations as similar to the following, I indeed had trouble with so many obstacles when it came to finishing what I started because of how unmotivated I was. Many people whom were in my team would say I wouldn't be able to do it, that I don't have enough stamina to run or be apart of the cross-country team. I would finish a mile in 14 minutes or more. I worked harder than the others that were in my team, I practiced everyday with the girls and when there was no girls practice I would run with the boys hoping to get faster or pick up some knoledge as of how to get motivated to finish. My goal was my motive but as the more i was running, the more i felt insecure if I was good enough for this task. I now run a mile in 5 minutes and less. I am my own motive.
4. The poem and the video are very similiar because they are both saying and motivating you to get the words "you can do it" in your mindset. Literally both the poem and video stated that people are going to tell you that you cannot do this and you can't accomplish that. people are going to tell you that aren't apable to do such things, but why are you going to listen or let what someone says effect what youv'e been striving for? And that's exactly what the poem and video are telling you. You are your own obstacle and you and you only. No one else. you don't grind and put all your tears and sweat into the thing you love most for them. You don't strive for them. So what they say, is irrelevant.
5. It has a great important significance because many people are put down due to what others say. They had little confidence and little faith so when those negative words came rushing to them, they lost faith in themselves. Someone else said they can't do it, so now they really can't do it. No. That's not how it works and it will never work that way. You gotta believe in yourself, trust that you can do it and take responsibility IN YOURSELF. You are the one who is striving for your goal. This is your dream so stop making excuses and face your obstacle. Face your fear. Face yourself.
I have already applied this to my life and it has really made it better. I feel as though I've become stronger with this knowledge in my mindset. It keeps me going and motivates me to finish. To finish strong is all that matters. And I now know that. I used to only want to win and end up not even finishing. Now I finish and I feel successful. Like I'm one step closer to my dream you know? Like I can do this, It was nothing.
1) What this poem means is that don't give up on something you want to do. Don't listen to people that are gonna say you cant do it.
ReplyDelete2) What this means to me is that don't let people put you down. Don't let people ruin your dreams if you want to accomplish your dreams you will do it because you want to you decide to do it . So don't let nobody put your hopes down.
4) They are both similar because they are both talking about how you don't let people put you down on say you cant do anything. You have to believe in yourself. The video tells you to ask yourself what do i want? What are the risk i need to take to get there. Also the poem says don't let nobody put you down your are yourself. They are different because the video says we need to know how to control our actions. And the poem says that you don't always have to listen to the people that tell you "you cant".
5) This matters in my future because if i want to accomplish my dream i have to go for it. I cant let people put my hopes down. I have to do what i want to be in the future so i have to do my best and leave all the bad influence behind. I need to pickup the pace and i will be the doctor i wan to be and so people like to bug. For example if you want to be a firefighter so people would say "that's only for boys why are you gonna do that" like you don let no one put your dreams down if you want to be a firefighter be one don't let them convince you that you shouldn't do that because its only for "men" you be yourself! This video motivates you to do better and make sure you don't believe everything everyone tells you. Because you need to be you and not let nobody ruin your future.
ReplyDelete1)You should never stop doing what your doing.Keep moving forward.
2)It means to never stop putting effort in your goal.Never think that something is impossible.
4)The video and quote are similar by telling us to never stay in the same position.Try finishing what you started.They are different because the quote talks about how there will be that will try to stop us. The video talks about how we should keep working hard for what our mind desires for the future.
5)It ultimately matters because if we don't put effort and time to what we want in life, then we wont get it. We need to focus on what we want. Our mind should be focused on winning. If we don't achieve our dreams, we will fail. Failure isn't good. Its a disappointment.
I can apply this concept by making my life better by following the lesson on how to let nobody stop me. If I let somebody stop myself, then I'm a looser. To make everybody forget that I'm a looser,I need to win. It may challenging and impossible. At the same time,you can be the first person to prove everybody wrong.
1) Many people will tell you that you can't do what you want to do, but you can show that you can.
ReplyDelete2) Based on my experience, this means to me that when you want to accomplish something, many people will tell you that you can't. They will tell you that you can't because many people failed to do want you are trying to do, but you can't let that stop you from trying.
4) The video and the poem are similar because they both motivate you to go for what you want to accomplish. They also tell you to not let anything stop you. They differ because the poem mostly talks about people telling you that you cannot do want you want to do, and the video mostly talks about trying to complete your dreams.
5) The video and the poem matter because they motivate you to do things in life. They also show you that you should give up on your dreams. You shouldn't give up on something just because people are doubting you. Probably many people have failed trying to accomplish a your same goal but you cannot let that stop you. People will tell you you can't do it for that reason.
I can apply this to the concept life when someone works really hard at something. Some people may think that person wouldn't be able to do it. They would think that because it might be very challenging. The person who is working hard shouldn't let those people make him or her feel down because then he or she would give up. Then that person would never be able to complete his dream, not because it was very hard but because of what people have said to that person.
1)In my own words i think it means that the more you work hard for what you want you will get what you want in life.But you have to actually try and go for what you want in life and not sit around and do nothing about it.
ReplyDelete2)Based upon my experience this means to me that i will not complete anything in my life if i don't work hard for it.like if i wanted to be lets say a police man i would have to work harder for it and spend every second in my time to complete that and become a police man.
3)
4)There is a thing as luck it just happens when you accomplish what you have been working for. You have to try and achieve it work hard for it try your best.Luck is a thing that happens in life sometimes it can be good luck or bad luck.

1. The poem is teaching the reader that anything can be done but others will tell you it isn't possible to do it. the poem is giving advice to anyone who was told that they cannot do something to go ahead and tackle what you want to get done with a smile showing that you gave it a shot.
ReplyDelete2. The poem means to me that anything can be possible but first you have to block the haters that will tell you that you will never do it.it means that we have to put a smile on our face and tackle what we want done despite what other people say and accomplish it.
4. Both the video and poem are similar are because they are stating that you wont be able to chase your dreams until you try and try again. It is saying that when you chase your dream and goal it just need to be a good reason for yourself. They are somewhat different because the poem is talking about how other people will doubt your abilities to achieve something and so you must do it to prove them wrong. The video talks about how your dream is yours and no one else can take it from you because it is your stuff and so they cannot take it from you.
5.This matters because your dreams can be achieved it is just he fact that you, yourself have to reach out for that dream. You have to purposely work hard for it because it is waiting for you, you don't need a proper reason when it makes sense to you. i will attach this to my life when I skate to wake up early before school to have fun at what I do and get better to what I love to do and practice everyday to reach my goal of a professional skateboarder.
1.what the poem ment was some people said that some task cant be done but it may be true but not always.There are thousands of people that are going to tell you you wont be able to do that but you can prove them wrong.
ReplyDelete2.In my experience I know there are people out there that don't what you to become successful because they can't do it.My 2nd grade teacher told my am never going to be good at reading,but now i read better that the other kids in my class and I saw her two weeks before high school and I showed her my scheduled and i got honers English.
4.I can apply this to my life because all my life I told my self I could do better and accomplish something that no one has.There for I've always tried to find something am good at to make it my top priority and I will fined it.I and I have there are only three thing in life I like to do and am good at doing it. And some people always told me "oh your not going to be able to do that.There for my life goal is to prove them wrong And look down at then and say a lot of things.But if I want to be better at them and do my best.The things I am good at ,You need to be very strong smart and really fast.Am good at swimming biology and wight and in general i like to work.
My dad always tells me put all you got into your work even tho he some time tell me I cant do it or accomplish it. My family members they tell me I cant do something because they cant do it.And that is what you want out of life to do something no one has done before and that's what I want to do.When some one says to me you cant do that.That makes me what to do it even more and not stop doing it until am good at it and show them I can .And so can you.

1) This quote means that you can do anything you put your mind to no matter who doubts you , you have to go for it even when they say you can't do it because once you do it it may have an effect on you an also them. Then once you do it whoever said you couldn't do it will be shocked that you actually did it with nobody's help or anything .
ReplyDelete2) To me this quote means that even when someone tells you you can't do something they are hating on you because some people don't want to see you doing good and to me that's a hater. But i had to learn the hard way that in life their's always going to be haters . Haters are going to hate that's why I don't pay any attention to them because they can't do anything to please me . And i will never let them get into my head because I know for a fact that in my heart I can do anything i put my mind to .
4) The video and quote are similar because they show you and tell you that nobody's opinion really maters. They also show me that there's going to be obstacles out there that you would have to go thru but you have to take that chance and go after them , there's no going back so I rather attempt to try then not try at all. It might a bumpy ride on the way but at the end of every bumpy rode there's always going to be some good in it .So don't not try because you would miss out on a big opportunity. If it isn't what you were expecting to accomplish you might've learned something along the way . Which you will carry with you forever.
5) This matters to me because this would be the type of advice I would need wen i'm going thru something. I can use this information throughout my school years . I know it's going to get hard so people might try to persuade me that It's to hard and i can't do it but I know i can because I only need a good mindset .So during the process I will think about how I can't let anyone tell me I can't do something when I know i can do it , I know I can . This can make my life better because I can teach myself how to go for anything I want . And nobody can tell me how to live it or run it .Because the people that tell me I can't do something they aren't going to help me achieve it , so it's just better if they let me do my thing and don't try to ruin it by saying negative things like try to make me believe I can' do something.
1.) The poem is saying that people will doubt you , and won't believe on you. But just because people are saying negative things doesn't mean you need to give up and never try what you wanted to do ; at least try , and you will know if people where right about you .
ReplyDelete2.) Based upon my experience , this poem means that you won't know if you can do something unless you try to do it . If you are doubting yourself don't ! Try to do what you fair yourself on failing ; you might not fail and become successful and prove people wrong . Live your life knowing that you at least try.
3.) * video viewed.....
4.) The video and the poem are similar because they both share the statement of trying to see if you are able to do something. And they both motivate you to do what you thing is possible and what you fair to do . They are also different because the poem doesn't tell you what the meaning of the poem is, and the video gives you details of what they are tying to tell the people watching the video.
5.) This matters because many people don't follow their dreams because they always doubted themselves . And that't not how it's suppose to be ! People need to believe in themselves and ignore all negative comments of them not being able to do something good . The more you listen and take all negative things , the more you will doubt yourself .
I can apply this to my life to make it better , by ignoring all negative people and letting positive things in my life to be successful and a winner. I will apply this to my life to by making good choices and not giving up.
1. This poem summarizes about not giving up on the things that seems like it is impossible. No matter who tries to stop you, you have to try and in no time, "It will be done."
ReplyDelete2. Based upon my experience this means to me that we shouldn't let the things in life prevent us from doing what we want to accomplish. We should motivate and push ourselves. We need to ignore those who say we can't do it, and push them aside and tackle it. We always should tell ourselves the thing that cannot be done can be done.
4. Both the video and quote are identical because they relate to the topic "I will Win." Another reason they are identical is that they are very inspirational and motivational. They give you that push in life you need in order to succeed in life. They differ because the video just goes into more detail than the quote about winning in life. Another reason is that the video doesn't really go into detail in telling us to ignore the temptations in life and telling ourselves we can do it, but the quote does. That's what I think they both have in common and differ.
5. This quote matters because it helps you in life to move forward. It gives you a life lesson that teaches you that you shouldn't listen to those who say you can't do it. Instead you should tell yourself the thing that cannot be done can be done. This will help you reach your dream and accomplish goals in your life a lot faster. That's why it matters. I can apply this to my life by ignoring those who say I can't do it and tell myself I can do it. I sometimes give in to that pressure and never succeed. That does not help me grow. This quote inspired me that nothing is impossible until we try. Many people think that if they try they will receive failure as a result. They interpreted wrong. Sometimes we will fail at some point, but that doesn't mean we can't try again. I need to motivate myself and tell myself "I can do it." That is how I can apply it into my life.
1. When somebody said that it couldn't be done, the difference between the other person was that he said the same exactly thing but, he wouldn't say it till he had tried. Someone will always be there to tell you that you wont be able to accomplish what your goal. All you have to do is to sing as you tackle the thing that "cannot be done", and you'll do it.
ReplyDelete2. Based upon my experience what this poem means to me, is that you cant be say that it couldn't be done till you actually try to get it done. You just start to sing as you tackle the thing that "cannot be done" and you'll do it.
4. The video and quote are similar because it talks about not giving up till you've accomplished what you stared. The difference between the video and quote is that the video motivates you do follow your dreams and that you can't be waiting for things to be perfect you have to want it to get it. What the quote is telling you is that there is always going to be someone in your life telling you that you can't do certain things when you actually can.
5.This matters because its motivating you to not listen to people when they're telling you that you can't do something when you can. Even when people are telling you that you cant do certain things you should ignore them and follow your goals. Not everything is going to be perfect but you still have to keep on trying. Even though everyone else is bringing you the negative you have to learn how not listen to them. You need to start making the right choices in life.
I can apply this to my life because there are a lot of negative people in my life who say I wont be able to accomplish certain things. But I don't allow that. I prove them wrong because I know I can do anything I want if I work hard to accomplish it. You can do anything but you just have to put the hard work and effort. No one can tell you what you can and cant not do.
