Student Success Statement

“I will persist until I succeed.” -Og Mandino 

This quote means that I will keep pushing myself for better until I succeed. Succeeding to me means that my dreams and my goals will come true which ever those goals are. Just because something did not go my way does not mean that my dreams will not come true I just have to keep pushing myself to make the dreams of mine come true. No one’s dreams come true just like that everyone once has hit a rocky road and has had to get up from it and sometimes maybe even without anybody’s help at all. Og is a good example of persisting because he wanted to give up and maybe even take his life away but life has your own path for you because something stopped him from doing this and know he is a famous man.

Student Success Statement

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence

Talent:  will not, nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent

 Genius:  will not unrewarded genius is almost a proverb

Education:  will not, the world is full of educated deficits

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan press ok’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”       -President Calvin Coolidge

This quote means that if you really want to follow a dream there should be nothing there stopping you! If you have determination nothing should be able to replace determination nothing because that is all you have. If you want something in your life you have to have determination in order for the thing you want to come true. All those famous people today that always had determination they never gave up even though they had a lot of doors slammed in their faces they still did not give up, so we shouldn't give up on following our dreams if we really want those dreams to come true.

                           

Progress Report Post

My 100 goal achievement is going good because one of my goals was to try to get straight A's and I'm getting there because I only have 3 B's and the rest of them are A's. I am really proud of myself and now I can see that I might be able to get straight A's. The reading of every day for 2 minutes is helping me out a lot because that way the goals are always in my head and I never forget to try top accomplish all of those goals. I think that I need to continue to add to my goals so  I can achieve more.
