“Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow “

Robert Kiyosaki

Reflection:

My thought about this reflection is remarkable. Because it’s 100% true, whether people agree or disagree. Every decision you make will create your future depending on the choices you make, they either could be good or bad you decide. Yes, the Famous Thomas M. Manson in his prime was once quoted to say, “Decisions Determine Destiny.”

"There is no justification ever for choosing any part of what you know to be evil."

_Avn Rand

Reflection: if you know that something is wrong and evil then why even bother trying if its evil then don't do it. choosing the wrong chooses is not the right thing to do so if you do it its like the evil is inside you not what your doing. so next time think of what your doing before you make a move.

Tip 5: Keep a List of Questions

When you feel confused about something you’re reading, write down any questions you have. Sometimes your questions are answered as you read further. If not, don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember, teachers create assignments; they’ve read the texts and are familiar with them. When you have specific questions, your teachers can provide answers that will help you better understand the material. Learning is rooted in questions developed and asked by the learner.

Asking questions to yourself, to the teacher, and to others, is a great learning method. When you crease to ask questions, you crease to exist to a great extent. Read actively by silently asking questions as you read. Questioning immerses you into the material you are reading and therefore will expand you mental capacities more than almost anything else.

The philosopher Sir Francis Bacon said, “Knowledge is power.” Improving your reading comprehension is the key to gaining important knowledge and making the most of your education. So pick up a book ... and a pen.

-John Wooden

Reflection: in life you should always do what you can to improve.; if you cant improve at what ever your trying to improve at then don't give up until you do improve. and once you improved then you had accomplished it.

Tip 3: do research

Literary critics have written vast numbers of analytical and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension, you’ll also be showing initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources, not condensed study guides.

Tip 4: use a dictionary

Make sure you have success to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using context clues, but sometimes you can’t. Rather than simply skipping over the words you don’t know, take the time to look them up. The results are well worth the effort. Your comprehension will increase greatly, and you’ll build your vocabulary at the same time.

"Every time I've done something that doesn't feel right, its ended up not being right."

-Mario Cuomo

Reflection: every time someone does something wrong it does ends up not right. but maybe if you do the right thing it wont end up being the wrong thing if you really think about it. so maybe you can do the opposite to do the right no the wrong things in life.

Example:

• not ditching school
• not doing drugs
•  behaving in school and home
