Student Success Statement - 1/8/18

"It's not about how to achieve your dreams. It's about how to lead your life the right way, the karma (good results, destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you."
                                                                - Dr. Randy Pausch

Image result for randy pauschI agree with this quote greatly, i believe it's important to always remember this quote too. I agree with this quote because i have seen it happen to other people and to me as well. Growing up my goal was to always be a good person and to be genuinely happy. I remember making up 'plans' to  make sure i achieved what i wanted. My first step was to be a good positive person, i noticed that once i had started spreading kindness to everyone, i began being more positive towards myself and got the same response i was giving to myself. Another big thing was my grades. My grades haven't always been good but i told myself that if i got good grades that the karma i would receive would be good, so i worked hard and have been getting good grades ever since, the karma i received was respect from my teachers and my mother is very proud of me which is always a good thing. I believe in karma because it has made me the person i am today. The idea of everything in life coming back to you has truly inspired me to be a good person even when it seems very hard because i know it is the right thing to do. I believe that everyone should use this quote to help motivate them to choose the right and to make decisions that will benefit them and not hurt others in the future.

"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you know where the goalposts are."  - Arnold H. Glasgow This quote, in other words, is talking about the importance of setting goals and knowing what exactly you are working towards. I agree with this because setting goals and acknowledging that you have goals is really motivating. I, for example, set goals for myself and work hard to meet all of them. Sometimes, i don't meet all the goals i expect myself to but that just motivates me to work harder. Last year, during 8th grade, i set multiple goals for myself. Some of them were, to get good grades, to complete all my work, and to make sure i am a great student. All of those grades were accomplished and i graduated with a high GPA and many of my teachers thanked me and awarded me for being such a great student.  This year, my goals are to get straight A's so i will have a 4.0 GPA and i want to start volunteering.
