- Watch Video and Take Notes: NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS
- Summarize the video in your own words. [2-3 sentences]
- Based upon your understanding, what does this mean? [3-5 sentences]
- Why does this matter and how can you apply the concepts to your life to make it better? [2-3 paragraphs]
2.In my own words the video is telling us no matter your circumstances,always find a
ReplyDelete"why."Find a reason to get things done in your life that will help you and others.If you have a reason to push through,you won't want to quit.
3.Based upon my understanding this means find a reason to push through.No matter if it's just a thought or a person.Have something that will make you wan't to work harder every time you think of it.This will often make you not want to quit.
4.This matters,because this will motivate me to get things done.Having a why for my self will help me a lot.My why is my parents,I want to be able to have enough money for when they are older I can take care of them and they won't have to work anymore.Simply having a why can motivate someone so much that their whole mindset can change.
I can apply this to my life in basketball and in school.One way I can apply this to basketball is if I keep training and getting better I will someday maybe get a job involving basketball which will pay me a lot of money.For example NBA players make thousands of dollars for doing something they love every day.Secondly,I can use this in school because I can use my why to push me to graduate high school and college to get a good job one day to take care of my parents.
2) To summarize the video, it is saying that you need to believe in yourself in order to succeed in life. People often have the fear of success, and it is what is holding them back.
ReplyDelete3) Based upon my understanding, this means that you need to be optimistic because keeping a good attitude will bring you good things. Without believing, you'll keep a negative attitude and never complete anything in your life. As ET said in the video, don't accept the world that's been given to you, create your own. Something that you can't always do is copy everyone. You can't just go with the flow, you have to be different.
4) This matters because most people don't succeed with these kinds of mindsets. They fear that if they succeed, something will go wrong or it won't last. It won't last with that kind of attitude. If you don't believe in yourself, how will you get anything done? A lot of people listen to that voice in their head, fear, and will regret not taking the chance later on in their life. Regret will overcome the fear, and you will wish that you believed in your dream.
I can apply the concepts to my life to make it better by not succumbing to my fear whenever something seems difficult. Nothing in life will be 100% possible/easy. There will be obstacles in my life, and I'm going to have to deal with the fact that I will not always succeed. Whenever I try to complete a given task, and fail at completing it, I feel defeated. What I should really feel is determination to finish it next time. Not just give up because it was hard and "stupid". To make my life 100% better, I'm going to have to push past the fear and difficulty and listen to the optimistic believing voice in my head. The voice that wants me to succeed.
1. video
ReplyDelete2. The video summarized in my own words is that you need to make the best out of your own life. You need to finish what you start to be successful and finish strong.
3. Based upon my understanding this means that you need to do anything in your power you can just to become successful. Also that you need to believe and have hope in yourself. Another thing is that you need to do it for yourself not for others, you need to change.
4. This matters because its inspiring me to finish whatever I start. And I need to know that its not gonna be easy to finish. Another reason why this matters is because its telling you that you can make it happen. All you need to do is start strong and finish it even stronger. Also this matters because it can help a persons life a lot and bring them to success.
I can apply these concepts to my life to make it better by putting more effort in when I start something I need to finish it. Also I would need to get it done better. Another concept I can use to make my life better is I need to believe more in myself. I also need to have more hope. And I need believing that I can do something Because believing takes you to success. I can also use the concept make the best out of your life. I can use this concept everyday.
2) What the video is telling us is that you have to believe in yourself and you could do anything. Go to school to help out the people you love. You also have to focus on what you have and make your life better by that.
ReplyDelete3) What i thinkthis means to me is that i feel like you have to stop saying you cant and start putting your best effort to it. You may not start strong but you should finish strong. And you may not want to go to school beacuse you think that its not worth it but do it for someone you love and make them proud. Later on it would also help you in the future.
4) This could help me to do better and work hard to make my parents proud. I need to put my best effrot in school. I want to be susessful for my self but alswo beacuse i want tot makwe my parents proud. i dont want tmy dad to be working till he is 50 or 60. I will put my best effort to make him proud beacuse he has done so much for me. I also dont want my mom to feel sick anymore. i want to pay all her medications and help her out.
These videos relly help me and inspire me to do better and be someone in life. I feel like this does help me rethink stuff all over again. I really like how he inspire people to do better. Beacuse when he was young he wasnt living the best life. So this means anyone can be succsessful if you try
2) The videos is very emotional and inspirational , it talks about being successful. If you fail , redeem yourself , restore everything , than return and be successful. You don't have to let the past define your future.
ReplyDelete3) To me this video means that just because we fail early in life , we got the rest of our life to change it and make up for what you loss. We have to have a why to be successful so that we can stay committed to our work ethic. We have to want to succeed as bad as we want to breathe , than we'll be successful.
4) It matters because it is inspiring all of us to do better and motivate us to be successful. This can help me prepare for the future and what it has to offers. I can also start looking for goals to complete and opportunities to chase. This will help me and others prepare for anything and everything. This can motivate me and others to be successful and it lets us know that even though we fail sometimes , but we don't have to give up. We can always get back up and fix our mistakes and proceed and hopefully succeed. If we fail again , than we try again.
I can apply this to my life by focusing more in school. Make sure that I get my work in in time so I don't get overwhelmed my a lot of work. Stay positively motivated and keep positive things in my head. Try to keep my home life and school life separate and important , and take school more serious. Make a WHY for me to be successful. My why is myself , prove doubters wrong , my mom , and my dad. I also want to prove all the people who doubt me and my brothers wrong.
2. To summarize the video of what ET was in he got redemption, restored and return. He got to finish with the success he had. How he made progressing to continue learning.
ReplyDelete3.To me this means that there's nothing impossible if you say its impossible then your not ready for it. It takes time an patience to finish not just to start strong but to finish strong. It also means that you should make the best out o your life instead of not doing anything to make it better.
3. I can apply this to my life because there's things you gotta finish. I literally was about to give up until I told myself to not stop to continue grinding to continue working. The reason why is because where my focus goes that where you gonna start whether its bad energy or good. I can apply this to my life because there's a lot of things that I need to do and with redemption, restore and return that's all i need to make my return to get back on the grind to get my grades up from that drop. Whether it means taking notes that might not even mean nothing to anyone.
For me to apply this to my life would be to just keep on grinding and grinding the more grind the better. There's times I feel like a failure but i rather focus on something better then putting myself down. There's ways that I can apply this to my life because the extra redemption the extra effort helps you to finish and finish strong. It really impacts your life once you can get redemption while your done doing what you did a long time ago. This is how I can apply that to my life.
2) In order to succeed you need to be passionate and have hope. You would be able to achieve anything if you don't believe.
ReplyDelete3) Base upon my understanding, the video means that you need something that can push you to do your best. Sometimes you would want to give up which why you need something or someone to help motivate you to not give up. That someone can be a person you love and that you would want them to see you succeed.
4) This matters because it helps you to be motivated to succeed. It takes more then hard work to succeed, you need something to keep you from giving up. The video shows that you need to find something to motivate you. Once you start working on something, then you should work on it until you finish. Giving up just because it's getting hard wouldn't help you at all.
I can apply this to the concepts of my life when I work in school. Later on in school, things will be harder and harder to complete. This is the reason why I would need something to motivate me. Something that could motivate me is my parents. They could motivate me to do my best on school so that I could make them proud of me. They can also prevent me from giving up and keep my head up.

2.The video was about how you have to have a WHY. Why are you doing it why do you what to go to college why do you what to finish high school why do you what top graduate college there is always a reason your doing something.
3. What this video means is why do you want to accomplish that one thing your doing. Why, Ask your self why do you want to finish high school , why do you want to go to college and graduate and become some one in life. there is always a reason why and there is always a reason.
4. Every one has a reason why and so do I. I want to accomplish my dream and become civil engineer. There are a lot of thing that motivate me to do my best in school and one of these is my family. When I was in 5th grade my grandpa was a engineer and he told me to become on as a boy and that if he can do it I can to. Also there was a quote Muhammad Ali said once and he said " I hated every minute of training, but I told myself, quit suffer now and live the rest of your life a champion".
Those are two reason why I what to go to college and finish and do something I love to do. There are a lot of things I like and engineering could help me start a family and I a good job. Also I want to prove everyone wrong and that I can accomplish anything I what is I try. Most of all I would like to become successful and show my parents I did good in life
2) The video was about being able to change your current state into one that you truly want. Eric talked about his personal challenges and how the way he decided to believe in what he wanted really changed his life.
ReplyDelete3) Based upon my understanding, this means that anything you dream of is possible. Eric Thomas is an example of this because of his failure to continue school as a teenager which he completely made up by being a graduate in college, along with his high school diploma. It is possible for anyone to be anything they want as long as they believe with all their soul they can make it to their desired state in life.
4) This matters because no one should feel discouraged when it comes to their dreams. Everyone is given the opportunity to better themselves in one way or another. They just have to take the chance and become what they want to be, whatever it may be. Eric Thomas also inspires people who are afraid to take this risk and end up failing. He motivates the people who are scared to try new things into actually facing their fears and moving on to greater things.
I can apply the concepts to my life to make it better by taking into account what it means to be hopeful. Many people say they believe in what they want and will get there, but never actually do. And most of the time, it is because they did not hope with all their heart. They are still scared about getting so close just to end up failing. Although, I can assure you I will get to the desired state I want to be in life as long as I work hard for it and believe in myself all the way there.
2) The video is about is to believe in yourself. If you don't believe in yourself you will not find success. Another thing what the video is about is that to be motivated. Be motivated to do something you want to do.
ReplyDelete3) Based on my understanding this means that I will have to be motivated. To always try and try. Never give up. And I have to believe on what is going to happen and not the things that's is not going to happen. If someone tells you that you not going to make it just prove them wrong.
4) This matter to me because everything that he said it could happen to me or anyone.Another why it matters to me is that I want to go follow my dream. And to do it I will have to follow the steps that he said. One of the important steps is to be motivated. And to believe in myself.
this can make life better because it teach me the thing that In need to do. if someone tells me that I'm not going to make it just ignored them. I will have to be motivated to do the things I want to do. It can help me to go to college. For to have a good job.
2. Eric Thomas spoke to the Dropout Prevention Center to stress his values of "redemption, return, and restore." He believes that you can make it back from your lowest point through hard work-- and redeem yourself. Education equalizes, and your "why" must be visualized everyday.
ReplyDelete3. This means that being in the bad spot where you are doesn't mean you have to be there forever. You must be determined to move away from where you started, even if you believe that you are where you're meant to be just because your family was always in the same position. Your family's fate and decisions don't have to affect you, because you have the power to move up.
4. This matters because people everywhere think that they must stay in exactly the same place all their lives just because their family always did the same. If that was true, no one would ever go to college or leave the neighborhood they grew up in, or raise their children to believe that they can achieve what they want. We must change the way we look at success, because without that mentality, we will never leave our comfort zones. We drop out because were scared, or because we don't see the worth in finishing what we start. Students have their goals set out right in front of them, and taking the assignments day by day until yo're finished will get you through high school and into college. Applying yourself and seeing your worth will get you every opportunity.
My mother grew up in Inglewood, went to Luezinger, then El Camino. She's been here her whole life, and raised her family in the neighborhoods she grew up in. My cousins live around the block, and my sister lives in Studio City. The concept of "getting out" is very important to me. I have been raised to think about what's close to home, where college is just an option -- maybe go to El Camino, maybe CSUN or some other school close because we don't have the money for UC schools. My family joined the army or worked until they can't work anymore. My dad grew up with more money and knew that college was his only option, so he became an engineer. But I'm done thinking about what I can do to stay around here, I gave no desire to find somewhere to live around here and go to some college I don't care about. I apply my efforts to school because I want out, and when I fail, it's like a direct line to the thought that I'll never get to leave. Dropping out is not an option, and I know that college is my ticket to doing whatever I want. I'm sick of being told I need to stay here just because it's what my family does, and by visualizing the day I graduate, I work hard and plan to work harder. Where you come from doesn't determine your future.
1- Video Notes
ReplyDelete2- Based upon the video, you have believe in yourself. You can focus on what you do that is important to you in your life. You do not have to finish things strong, you have to finish something with success.
3- Based upon my understanding this means that if you believe in yourself, you can do it. You must have redemption, restore, and return something in your life. You want to succeed to make things happen for example your dream. Your future is your dream and you want to make it a success.
4- This matters because this will help you turn around things that are happening you. Making a change is important because it will inspire you to do better than you did in the past. In the video it is telling you to not be a drop- out. If you drop out of school, you will find your way to the wrong path in your life. You should stay in school to build up your dreams. This matters in your life because it will affect your future based on what you do. Believing in yourself that you can do it is a good thing because you want to make your life full of success.
I can apply the concepts to my life to make it better by making my future possible. This will apply to my life because I have to have a power to believe that I can be successful. You have to be inspired to make your life better. You do not need to think about the past, just think about the future. To make your life better you have to focus on what you want to do in your life. You want to make things in your life a success. I can believe in myself that I am capable of succeeding.
2. the video was about E.T attending the Dropout Prevention Conference and giving a speech. He talked about how you can have redemption, how you can restore yourself, and how you can return to others. Himself being a High School dropout, he got back up and finished what he started.
ReplyDelete3. By my understanding, this means that there are still chances for you to get back up from being knocked down, and finishing what you started. There will always be a chance to redeem yourself and to restore yourself. You have to give yourself some credit and take back the courage to finish and never be afraid.
4. This matters because there are a lot of people who just never finish anything. Especially school dropouts. They feel that they cannot do it, and end up giving up. And that is not okay. You have to get back up and go do it. It is possible. It might take more time than usual, but at least you're getting it done. And that is what matters the most. It's about completing it that matters, the time is just a irrelevant factor most of the time.
I can also apply this to my life because I am also a person that tends to finish but but not start. But it is not that often. There are just things that I give up on. And usually dumb reasons that I give up. I consider "too hard" a dumb reason/excuse. Anyone could do it and anyone can complete it, it is just a matter of if you put in the work. I give up easily if the outcome seems different from what I expected or I begin to do poorly on my objective. I need to start finishing a lot of things I have started. For example, weight loss. I have been meaning to lose some weight, but like most people, I was too "lazy." Again, I feel that is a poor excuse, but I still do it anyways. And that it is what needs to change. My habits need to change so i can finish things. Or if I have failed, I can get back up. It is never too late to get back up.
2.) The video talks about how you don't have to start with something , you need to end with accomplishing something. There's still a way out if you are a drop out. If you believe in yourself you can get to the top of anywhere.
ReplyDelete3.) Based upon my understanding this means that even though people make mistakes and fail , they can get back up and start making something good out of their life. You after that second chance you might have . It's time to let people know that they need to finish what they started!
4.) This matters because many people seem to be giving up just because they made a bad choice . And that's not how it works , you need to learn from that to make things better so that things can come out right. Don't be a failer be a finisher . Don't quick just because you did something wrong ! Learn from that mistake and next time make things better so that you won't make the same mistake it did before. Second chances don't come to everyone , so if you have a second chance to make things better take advantage of that and do your best.
I can apply this to my life to make it better by not leaving behind what i have already started , i will finish what i have started and if I make a mistake I will learn from my mistake and make hings better next time . I can also apply this to my life to make it better by going after something that will make something good in my life because every one doesn't start from something , and a few end with accomplishing something.
2.that if you give up your life it is going to be harder to live a good life. if we give up we are going to regret it later on in life.
ReplyDelete3.that it is harder to get though life if you don't Finnish school is harder to get a good job. not always is easy to get though school you are going to want to give up many times but we cant give up is going to pay off later in life. not everyone gets a another change if you drop out of high school. but if we drop out we can still have a good job and life but its up to us how we change the future.
4. I can apply this on my life to don't give on on school and that i'm not alone i have someone to help me though school. there is always a reason that that helps them to keep going my is my grandma. With a drive to keep us going we are going to give up on school or maybe worst life. the bad chooses you make in life you can forget it and learn from mistakes or we can always think about it and never move on. And i can apply to my life to get everything that I have to do done so i want have to worry about it later on in life. not everyone has that chance to go to college but if we work hard we can be one of those people to be successful. that shows if he can drop out and have a good life in the end when you work hard but that's doesn't mean that I should drop out because not everyone gets lucky to get another chance.
2. This video was mostly about ET talking about his life and how he became a motivational speaker and inspired many people. It also talks about how often people have fear of success and that's not good because that will hold them back.
ReplyDelete3. Based upon my understanding what this means is to always find a reason for your purpose. You have to find a reason to get things done. But if you don't the greatest decisions in your life. You have to get through that because there are many people and programs that will help you.
4. This matters because it motivates you to get things done. Nothing in life will be easy. You have to work hard for what you want in life. You have to finish whatever you started. This matters because a lot of people are in fear to succeed.
I can apply the concepts to my life to make it better because i used to be in fear of success. I used to give up easily when things would get hard in my life. I eventually changed that when i realized that nobody was going to do the things for me. I had to work hard for what i wanted. you have to find a purpose in life in order.
1.To summarize the video you have to give yourself a why to finish something you want. Your goal will become clear when you have a reason why to do it, when you think about someone you love.
ReplyDelete2.Based on my understanding this means that belief is magical and we can do anything when we have it. When you have a chance of success take it because you may not get a second chance. To reach the success you need something to remember what you are chasing that goal for.
3.This matter's because less than half of people who took a survey even say that they are not positive about the future. For me I will stay positive and create my own world and future for myself. I will also inspire others to use this in their lives as well so they have a bright future. I will remember that I have to go to school and get an education to support my family. This will help me with keeping my goal clear for me.
I can apply this concept to my life with skateboarding and school. My why will be my family and skateboarding. I need to go to school so when I grow up I can make a lot of money and help out my family members that are in need of financial help. For skating I do it because I love how I am free in my own way and no one criticizes each other. In my 2 years of skating I never seen any skater criticize another by their color or by what they do.
2. In short, the video is saying that throughout life, you'll learn many things, but love will teach you the most, whether it be through heartbreak or a ton of success. In short, the quote is saying that love is the most malleable thing, through thick and thin, through lack of strength, the mutual confidence and understanding will always be there.
ReplyDelete3. Based upon my understanding, the quote means that if you're not loyal through thick and thin, if you're unable to understand why your s.o. did something that you don't particularly enjoy, then you either need to fix and strengthen your relationship, or you were never truly "in love."Quiet understanding and mutual confidence, in my opinion are probably the most important things in a relationship, second to communication.
4. The video and the quote are similar because they both talk about how love may be imperfect, but ultimately, you as well as your s.o. must be able to meet the criteria to keep things going, without it being a chore. If you're not understanding enough or you're too forgiving, when he/she is not, you're in the wrong relationship. The video and the quote differ because the video is talking about how you learn from love and the quote only talks about what love is and what it's about.
5. These principles matter, because if you never learn about love, then life can be very bland. A relationship is something that's an extra step to a friendship. It's the extra connection you're able to have with one person, and one person only. The principles apply to keep the relationship in check, to see if it's truly a relationship. Sometimes it may only be one person who really wants the relationship and does anything in his/her power to keep together, when the right choice is just to leave.
I can apply these principles to life, when I'm in a relationship, and to learn from my past. Common occurrences that I've noticed and happen all the time, is only one person is ever really benefiting from the relationship and that's never good. Either one person is being forced to do something uncomfortable to them, or they're being rushed by either peer pressure or by the s.o. Something that I've learned from my friends' and own experiences, is that you have to REALLY try to fix it once, and if it doesn't work out, then you dip. If they don't want to be with you, and you're kinda forcing them to, though it may hurt, it'll stop you from wasting a whole lot of time.
2) The video basically summarizes Eric Thomas and his life. His life went from being homeless to being successful. He had to believe in himself and strive for why he does the things he do. He also spoke at a conference with teachers and administrators so he can inspire them.
ReplyDelete3) The video means that you can do anything in life if you put the effort in it. You can have any career you want and anything if you put the work and time into it. I can be successful in life if I put the effort into it. Anyone can be successful if they focus and don't quit. Believe in yourself and you can do anything.
4) This matters because a lot of people don't have the effort or just motivation to strive for their goals. They just wait for something to happen in life and believe they can stay like this. The people who do strive get the most out of life and become successful. Anyone can accomplish their goals if they just believe in themselves. Motivation and effort are key components to success.
I can apply the concepts to my life to make it better by just believing I can do anything so I can strive for my goals. I can start by doing more in my work and coming to class on time everyday. These small steps will make a big difference later on. I can do anything in life if I just believe in myself. I can accomplish anything if I put the time and effort into it.
For me, school has been challenging because I don't have motivation to study and do my homework and end up doing bad. I didn't see the point in studying, but now I do. I'm starting to study more and doing better in tests and quizzes. I found the motivation to do it by doing it for the people I love and so I can have a happy life. I hope I'll continue doing better in school so I can succeed in life.
2)The video is about redemption,restore and return.It's about Eric Thompson going from homeless to a family and a business that inspires others to make the right decisions in their life.You don't need to start of strong,but you need to end strong to create your own world.
ReplyDelete3)Based on my understanding,it means to don't let the decisions as a teenager haunt you.The decisions you make as a teenager stays as a teenager because you are going to live the rest of your life as an adult.Don't go to school for money,go to school for the people who care for you.Some people don't go to school because they want to learn.They come to school because they love somebody and they want to make that somebody proud.
4)It matters to me because the person shares his experience in fishing school.He was homeless and then started actions to get his life flowing again.He tells us that there are some people who give second chances and give you an opportunity to graduate from school.If you fail try again until you get it right.Don't try and once you fail you give up on everything you've done to get it right.
I can apply this concept in making my life better by applying this top school.It motivates me in finishing work and improving my grades.I should go to school for the people I love and not for the money.If I study and work in my dream job I can repay all the things my parents have done for me.This concept will make me succeed and let me live my dream life I want to live.
1.To summarize the video you have to give yourself a why to finish something you want. Your goal will become clear when you have a reason why to do it, when you think about someone you love.
ReplyDelete2.Based on my understanding this means that belief is magical and we can do anything when we have it. When you have a chance of success take it because you may not get a second chance. To reach the success you need something to remember what you are chasing that goal for.
3.This matter's because less than half of people who took a survey even say that they are not positive about the future. For me I will stay positive and create my own world and future for myself. I will also inspire others to use this in their lives as well so they have a bright future. I will remember that I have to go to school and get an education to support my family. This will help me with keeping my goal clear for me.
I can apply this concept to my life with skateboarding and school. My why will be my family and skateboarding. I need to go to school so when I grow up I can make a lot of money and help out my family members that are in need of financial help. For skating I do it because I love how I am free in my own way and no one criticizes each other. In my 2 years of skating I never seen any skater criticize another by their color or by what they do.
