Final: Part 1

1. Some things that I liked about this class was that we got to write down some of our life goals, and read them every day to remind ourselves of where we want to go and want to do. I really liked that because it keeps you focused.
2. Some things I did not like about  the class was that it was just the same routine.
3. To improve the class I would recommend maybe doing something different like the lessons or something and change it up a bit.
4. I did try my best in this class in doing all my posts and answering them correctly and thoroughly. I tried to bring my life planning notebook every day. I did try my best although sometimes I slacked off.
5. I am reading my Life Planning 100+ Goals daily for two minutes almost every day because it was my job to do it and I was doing it to remind myself to what I’m striving for.
6. I am committed to be a CTR person because I do not want to be a CTW person. I want to make the right decisions as I mature and grow up because I don’t want to choose the wrong and suffer the consequences of my decisions, so I am committed in being a CTR person and choosing what’s right for myself.
7. I will always remember the things we had to write about and videos and stories you shared with us, they are memorable and the acts of kindness were amazing so that’s what I’ll remember.

Be a CTR Person-to Always Choose The Right!!

The Ultimate Choice

Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions. This one choice, The Ultimate choice, is your keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. The ULTIMATE CHOICE is: To be a CTR Person-to Always Choose the Right!

Out of all the choices we will ever make, good, bad, or any type of choice, one beats all of them and will prevent us from doing bad and being a good person would be to always do what’s right and keeping that in mind. If w keep in our mind being a CTR person then we will come out a better person with more understanding of things. So that is our ultimate choice and a choice and answer that should come to our mind when conflicted- doing what’s right.

“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder.”

Thomas Carlyle

I think what Thomas is trying to say with this quote is that people have to have goals in life, it is strange if they do not. Just like the ship needs the rudder, then individuals need goals in their life to achieve. And their own goals depend on them to be completed, well if people want to complete them. I think he compared it because the ship and a rudder they need to be together to work and a man should always keep the goals in our minds for them to become reality. Also I think everyone should have goals because whatever you want to achieve in life will come true if you make it a priority. I think that if you keep your goals in mind you could do and become whatever you want. It is all up to you and you make the choices you want to do. 

Beautiful Character

If there is beauty in character,
there will be harmony in the home.
If there is harmony in the home,
there will be order in the nation.
If there is order in the nation,
there will be peace in the world.
Conclusion:
If there is beauty in character,
there will be peace in the world.

Chinese Proverb

I think what this is trying to say is that the world needs good people so there could be peace in the world. There needs to be people with beautiful characters, and with good intentions so they could change the world we live in. I think that is so because they know whats right, and what the world should have. 

The Six Pillars Of Character


The Six Pillars are…

1.Trustworthiness
2.Respect
3.Responsibility
4.Fairness
5.Caring
6.Citizenship


Trustworthiness is being honest, being reliable, having the courage to do the right thing, and being loyal. An example of trustworthiness is seeing something in a crime and not saying the truth about what you saw.
Respect is treating other with respect, being tolerant and accepting of differences, good manner, considerate of others feelings. An example of respect is not judging someone maybe of their physical appearance just because something is not usual.
Responsibility is doing what you’re supposed to do, be self-disciplined, always do your best, and thinking before you act. An example of responsibility the teacher having told you to do something and you do it right on time.
Fairness is playing by the rules, taking turns and sharing. An example is little kids playing together and they’re taking turns.
Caring is being kind and compassionate, expressing gratitude.  
An example is showing love to your family.
Citizenship is obeying laws and rules. An example is obeying authority. 

Reflection: I think the six pillars is something everyone should have, they're great. It'll teach you how to be a better person. I will try to live up by these pillars everyday.

“The most important thing you will ever have is good values. “

Dennis Prager

I think what Dennis means by this is that your behavior, morals, and manners will get you far in life and that it is the most important thing you can have because it represents who you are. I think that people should go over their good values and check them so they can realize what they are doing wrong. It would be important to change your good values or try to change if you have negative ones because negative ones won’t get you far at all. So I think Dennis said this to make people realize that it is true. That being able to forgive, be honest, and loyal is the most important thing and that it will get you far.
