This quote by Theodore Roosevelt is saying that no matter what the situation is you should always do the right thing. Yes saying the right thing might not be the best decision but doing the wrong thing makes the problem even worse. Also, he’s saying that your decisions should always be right even because what would you do if someone did the wrong thing to you.

In my life planning goals notebook I have about 128 goals. I have accomplished 58 of my goals. One of my favorite goals or goal that I am glad I achieved was number 42.

       Video Summary

Honestly I think that doctor Bob is a great person. This is a masterpiece because of how he treats his patients. There not even his patients he takes them in as if they were his family and wants them to feel better no matter what the problem is. You can say he is a great doctor because he isn’t in this job for the money he’s in it to do his job and do it to his full capabilities. Doctor Bob doesn’t have the best house but to him having his patients feel better is more important. He gives them checks for their medicine and therapy lessons. I think that he’s a great man or doctor for doing this because some doctors wouldn’t give their money to their patients or treat them the way he does. I can say that doctor Bob is one of the best doctors or thee best doctor yet.

John Wooden

 

                      

In this quote by John Wooden he is saying live life to the fullest and to the greatest of your abilities. Also, that this shouldn’t only be in basketball it should be in your everyday lifestyle.

             Video Summary

 To me the inspirational video we saw was not just a person’s characteristic. It was sports man ship which is always great in any sport. In the video Sara had finally hit her 1^st home run in her career but had sadly torn her ACL. But that day things had changed because Mallory and Liz from the opposing team had stepped up that day and walked her around the bases. This shows that helping someone is great in general for a great cause. Yes Sara sadly couldn’t play anymore but that day was a day to remember because of what had happened. One problem cannot stop you just like Sara messing up her ACL it motivates you and affects others in a positive way.

                “A promise must never be broken.”

                       Alexander Hamilton

I think that this quote by Alexander Hamilton is very important because of the word promise. To promise is to give someone your trust or there trust. Also, being honest or trustworthy because promising someone something is like saying you will never do anything that will break the promise up or affect it. Some examples is like promising your mom you will throw out the trash or wake up early to walk your dogs.

“My basic principle is that you don’t make decisions because they are easy; you don’t make them because they are cheap; you don’t make them because they are popular; you make them because they’re right.”

Theodore Hesburgh

 

This quote by Theodore Hesburgh is saying that all the choices you make are always thought through. You don’t do things because you don’t care you do them because in your brain you’ve processed that it can either do something good or bad. But in this case it’s always best to do right not wrong. Doing wrong can lead to people getting hurt for poor decision making.

“It is our duty to concentrate to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound (not good).”

By Joseph Smith

 

 

 

 

 

Reflection: This quote by Joseph Smith is saying that we must concentrate on all the good things or positive things in our life. We should not concentrate on the things that are unsound or not good or negative in our daily life style only the positive. For example people asking you if you want to do drugs is being unsound or not good, Someone who asks you if you would like to study for a test you have is sound and good because you are doing something positive that will help with something else in your life.

Duties and Responsibilities: Home Health Aides help others who need more assistance at home. Home health aides make a remarkable difference in the lives of the sick, disabled and elderly.

Salary: $22,000 per year and $14-$17 per hour

Education: A high school diploma is not required but most have one and are trained by nurses, other aides, or supervisors.

I would not like to be a home health aide because I would like to get a job that will pay more than this does. Yes it is helpful for helping others but if I had to do this it would be for my family because I wouldn’t want anyone else to take care of them if there ill because when I was young they did everything for me and I would like to do the same for them.
