UPWARD BOUND #6
The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure , the process is its own reward.
Amelia Earhart

ReplyDelete1.You can do whatever you want to do, and the things the stop you are just false fears. It's up to you to take control.
ReplyDelete2. It means that because there are so many things that tie us down, it is difficult to act. However, those that tie us down are just fake fears, and in reality, there is nothing that can stop us. If you change your self, your life, you have already rewarded yourself.
3. It matters because hesitation is a baggage everyone carries. We are afraid to do something because of the unknown consequences. This quote tells us to be not fearful of those consequences; do not be afraid of the risk. Accomplish what you want to do, and what really matters is how you do it. The goal is not only the reward. The process matters.
My procrastination ties me down. It inhibits me to do my work on time, and it takes away the extra time I could have to perfect whatever I do. If I can "Change and control my life," I could do so much more. This morning, if I just woke up and not go back to sleep, I would have been early to breakfast, not running to breakfast. This teaches me that taking action whenever you can, as often you can, leads to great things( no matter how small it is).
The most difficult step is the first one.
ReplyDeletePeople tend to shy away from goals because it's difficult to initiate. Once you get through that first step, the process just flows along.
In the end no one is in control of your life except for you. You have to decide to do things on your own no matter how much preparation you get for it. We think things are out of our control without even trying to control it. If anything, we all have one ability. That is the ability to change our own lives.
This is important because if we don're realize this then we won't get anywhere in life. Sometimes the goal to a task only takes one step. And even though that step will be hard we forget that it will be the only step. To learn how to start things is the first step to finishing things. This will gain you success.
1- What does this say? (1-2 sentences)
ReplyDeleteIf we just sit down without making an effort to do what we have to do our lives could be the same or worse.
2- What does this mean? (2-3 sentences)
Fears will come and us but it is up to us if we decide to remove them and go on.
3- Why does this matter or how can you apply this to your life? (2-3 paragraphs)
This matters because now I know that everything is possible. Nothing will come easy in life but we still need to go forward. We determine what will happen in our lives. Nothing should be over looked when it come to our success. We should not let bullets stop us.
I can apply this to my life by being positive. To encourage myself to do better at all times. To stop making excuses and keep on going. Excuses are just blocks that will keep on stacking and stacking up and eventually will built a wall that will block my way. I must remember to keep my head up and go on.
1- What does this say? (1-2 sentences)
ReplyDeleteI believe it says when something is difficult to not to be fearless and just do it.
2- What does this mean? (2-3 sentences)
I think it means when you are in a difficult position you have to decide yourself on what you are going to do.
3- Why does this matter or how can you apply this to your life? (2-3 paragraphs)
~ It matters because som people don't make there own decision and they let other people make it for them and i think that's not the right path to take because some people might do something you didn't want them to do.
~ You can apply this to life because you are your own person and nobody is going to do everything for you. You have to make your own decisions for yourself and not to let other people make them for you.So when you do you can do anything you want to do when you decide to do it.
1) This says you are in control of yourself and your actions.
ReplyDelete2) This means it is your decision to make choices in your life. It also means that you cant do anything if you dont make a choice to do it.
3) This matters because no one can make you do anything. It is always your choice to make your decisions. You control your life. You decide what you do and what you say.In the end of changing things in your life the process will reward you.
I can apply this to my life by changing anything I want to in life. It is my choice to change what I want to. People can influence me to change my mind but it is my choice to actually change it. When I actually take control of my life everything in my life should be the way I want it because I am the only one that can change my life. Life is what I make it.
1. The decisions are in our hands, we can control and do whatever we want to do in our life.
ReplyDelete2. Everything we want to do, we want to decide is in our own hands. Everything is depends on own own decesions.
3. Nobody can control my life. Nobody can decide what i want to do or what i want to decide in my life. Excecpt me, myself and I. This is really matter to me because since my goal is to be successful and help my parents. I wont let myself sit and slack off. I know i can do everything i want and everything i can do. I will do my best just to accomplish my goals in life. If i didnt do the possible things that i can do, i know i might regret in the end. In life, there's no impossible that we cant do. There is always possible way to finish or accomplish whatever we want to do.
1. The decision to act is the hard part, and laziness is just an act of stubbornness. You can do anything at your own will; you control what you want to do and you will reward yourself by the things you do.
ReplyDelete2. Earhart is saying that what we do and how we control our lives will determine what will become of us. If we decide to do nothing all the time and never take action, we will not be getting anywhere in life.
3. This quote matters because many people choose to do nothing for the rest of their lives. They are too afraid to take action. These people should realize that we can overcome and control our own lives. What we do with our lives will determine the outcomes of our futures. If we just allow ourselves take action and get a hold of our lives, we will be able to push ourselves forward and get ahead in life.
This quote applies to me because sometimes, I limit myself from doing the things I want to do. It may be the fear. It may even be because I just won't feel comfortable doing it. I have to make myself realize that I truly am able to do the things I want to do. I control my life and I have the power to do what I want with it. The reward will come to me when I am able to do the things I want to do.
1) This quote says that our action depends on ourself. We can do anything that we want.
ReplyDelete2) I think what this quote means is that we can do anything what we want. This action that you decide to do will have an outcome at the end. But, that depends on yourself.
3) Most of us do our own thing. We decide what to do in ourself. Basically, we are the one who control our life. Also, we are the one who change our life. All of these things happen if some action is put into it.
We choose to do some action. But, these actions will have an outcome at the end. There will be a reward after that action, such as you will learn something from it. However, better rewards will result if one put a determination, or tenacity. Knowing that, if we do something that requires determination, it will result good. We make our own decisions, and those decisions can change or control our life.
1. This quote says that you can do anything if you put your minds to it.
ReplyDelete2. This quote means that whatever you want to do just work at it. Don't make no excuses.
3. Everyday I see people procrastinate or they start to make dumb excuses on why they couldn't reach their goals. For instance , my brother always says that he is going to do better and go get his GED. He never went to get his GED and his excuse is because the teachers are not good. I see him throw his life away I tell him to just do it and get it over with.
This quote matters because it says that , "You can act to chanfe and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward." This speaks the truth because only your actions change your life in many ways. This specific part I think mattters because if you change your life around in a positive way you will be rewarded at the end of the process. You just have to be willing to do it on your own with no excuses. Make adjustments instead of excuses.
This can be applied to my life by me doing what I can and when I can . Also, as often as I can. If I know what my goals are I have to be willing to go and not make any excuses along the way. I learned that there is always a opportunity door open but if I keep waiting it might not be open the next day. All I have to do is take the opportunity and if it's a good thing then I will be great . If it's a negative thing then I will just have to learn from it and try again .
1. your the leader of yourself.
ReplyDelete2. less talking and more doing. do what you think you cant do.
3. many people dont see themself as the person who makes the changes in themself. the stuff we fear are small things but dont realize as longest we try it. we change and control our life. at the end everything we do is only for ourself.
As far my understandings are my methods is to contol my life and change the person i'am today,to be a better perosn in the future. we all face our low and high points that makes us a better person each day.
1. It's easy to say the words, but it's hard to act on it. Fears do not hurt you, so face them. You can do anything you set your self to do. You control the course of your life. How you get to your goals is the real reward.
ReplyDelete2. You have the power to reach your goals. You just have to do it. Face your fears and take control of your life.
3. This quote empowers me. This reminded me that I have the power to control my life. I have the power to decide and change myself. More importantly, I have the power to get to where I want to be. The only thing I have to do act on it. I have to do what I can to reach it.
I won't get to my destination without working for it. I won't reach it in an in instant. It takes time. What I need to do is do what I can, when I can, and as often I can. Fears are there to hinder me, but they won't kill me, so I have to face them. I will reach my goals if I have the will to do it.
1. To make a decision is hard, once you made a decision then everything is under your control.
ReplyDelete2. You are the one who decide what you want to do. you are the one who control your life.
3. It's matter because it can effect your future based on your decision. Your decision is the cash, the house, the car, etc. Once you decided somehthing, it will change your life. This is because you accomplished your goal.
I make my own decision and it's the decsion that will be accomplish. I shouldn't be afaid in making decision. My actions are my decisions. My life under my control. Just do it.
1. your the leader of yourself.
ReplyDelete2. less talking and more doing. do what you think you cant do.
3. many people dont see themself as the person who makes the changes in themself. the stuff we fear are small things but dont realize as longest we try it. we change and control our life. at the end everything we do is only for ourself.
As far my understandings are my methods is to contol my life and change the person i'am today,to be a better perosn in the future. we all face our low and high points that makes us a better person each day.i have learn that we are the person we look up to, i also learn that the moment we have our doors open, is the moment to go in and be succesful. the moment we approch the chances we are offer is the minute we attempt to fail. live or life with no regrets!
1. This quote says the way you act now can shape the rest of your life.
ReplyDelete2. This means that way you act or how you approach thing will either make you or break you.
3. Your in control of your own life. Whatever you do has a huge impact. Wether its something good. or even if its something terrible bad. Your in control. Its a garantee there are going to be some big and little obstacles in your way.
Its okay to be afraid of succeding. You might have doubts. Use those doubts to your advantage. People do crazy things when there scared. Be crazy do something you wouldnt normally do. LIVE OUT LOUD!!!!!!
1- It says that the hardest thing to most people is to decide to make a move; everyone can make a move but they have to have the mind to do it.
ReplyDelete2- It means that it's harder to decide to act than any other things in life. One can accomplish anything if he or she makes the decision to do it. One is the boss of his or her life, she or he is the one who decides the result of his or her actions and what action does he or she take.
3- It matters because many have forgotten the importance of decision and the significance of actions. They seem to think about their actions too carefully that they are too afraid of failing. Without actions, nothing will be accomplished; many are too scared of failure that they left out opportunity and left their life following the flow, of which there is no final destination. Everybody can control their life, it's only the matter of courage and bravery. Fear is visible and appearance but what important is do people have the will to do it.
In my life, i know there is fear, and i know i'm always afraid of something. However, the fear shouldn't be able to take over and control my mind because that means i give up my dream. It's hard to make a decision to act or do something out of my reach or something i normally don't like, but if it's something i have to do, then that's what i aim for. I'm the king of my life, i'm the boss and i do what i want. If i fail in my life, it's my fault and what happens in my life depends on me.
1. This says that your acts depends all on you.
ReplyDelete2. This quote means that you have to depend on yourself. It sometimes fearful to over come some obsticals.
3. This matters because everyone has the habit it of depending on someone else. For example, my dad did not know how to take his own decisions and he would always depend on his bestfriend. Son enough he died and my father was lost and didnt know what to do. Everyone always depends on someone else no matter what but its true.
This applies to everyones life. It can be litte to older people but sometimes you just need to take your own decisions. It is sometimes fearful to take your decisions but you have to learn to over come it. It all depends in what you on what you want to decide to do.
1. Decision is the difficult thing to act, but just do it and that is the big akward you have.
ReplyDelete2. Make decision is difficult mission but the act and succeed after that is the big reward you can receive if you can control your life.
3. It matter to people because many people because fear the fail so they dont do the thing that the can do but they dont. They lost change and that never come back again. So control yourself and make clear decision, do what ever you can to get right decision that you know you can receive the reward.
It can apply to me because I'm person always scare myself when I do something wrong. So all of the time I don't have strong to do it. So I must to decide good and do it. Just do what ever I want.
1)The most difficult thing to do is to act, fears are always present. You can do anything you decide to do you are in control of your life .
ReplyDelete2)This quote means the most difficult thing to do is to act fears are small and sometimes always present. You act and control your life and the process is the reward.
3)Life throws us obstacles to overcome. We either go through them and act or stand there doing nothing. We make the voice whether to act which sometimes may be the hardest part. To act is the only way to overcome there are always fears on the line. You are sometimes scared to change see more fears along the way and confront. Its your action whether you change your life and the process is the reward because you learn from it more then before. This is true its your action whether you are successful or fail.
This can be applied to my life such as when I skate board or doing some homework. Its my choice or action whether I do it or not. Its my choice if I go to class and do something in my life. In skateboarding if I fall I don't just sit there and stare at my board and do nothing about it. I get back up and ride try it again learn from the process of falling. It may hurt to get back up , but then I learn a new trick and become better. When it comes to homework I act and do it. I could just chill with the homies and not do it. I do the act of putting time to do homework and finish it. Whenever I finish my homework I learn something new I swear.
1. People have the most difficultly doing the first step in anything you desire to.
ReplyDelete2.The quote means that when making a decision we need to learn to take action. As one of the first steps in taking action one of the most difficult is taking the action you need to actually do what you said.
3. Life is very difficult as we are in one big spiral most of the time. As we are given challenges to achieve we need to be given decision to find a strategy in finding a that decision that will affect us. Well sometimes we just ignore the fact as peer pressure or decisions are given to us how they will affect us greatly. As a player of your own life we need to start taking action in our lives as that decision can be affected by many different things. You should be the one to make that final decision as you will benefit from the choice that you desire. Make that choice.
This can be applied to life as when you look around you notice many people are often influenced by there choices they make. When you do something good, good will happen when bad its bad. What you make of it is what you get and in any time you can decide to change it. As it can be beneficial in being successful. We are the creator of the time as I decide if I want to be resourceful with my time or begin just goofing of.
1. People always struggle with the first step in acomplishing something .
ReplyDelete2.The most difficult step is the first one. Anybody can acomplish somehting ,you must take the desicion to do so.
3. This qoute matters becasue it true. To accomplish somehting you must take the first step. Its alll on you its your desicion if you want to acomplish it or not. People are always afraid of fail.It dosent matter who you are you will be afraid nobody likes to be worng. But you have the desicion to do anyhthing you want .Everybody can control thier life.
I can apply this to my life by controling my life and not letting other deside and direct my life. No longer will i let people push me around. I will try to push my fear out my way and put my foot foward and take the first step. Commit to what i want to do
1. It says that decision is a important step before we doing anything.
ReplyDelete2. It means that don't let the fear take advantage on you, what you need to do is changing and control yourselves, and make good decision. The rest that you need is your tenacity.
3. It matters because in our life, making a right decision is not just easy as we say it. It depends on many other factors in our life. One of them is the fear which often makes us not dare to do what we want, to take risks because we are scared of failure. However, if we can overcome the fear and be able to control yourselves, "you can decide do anything you want to do; and the procedure, the process is its own reward."
In reality, from my own experience,I learned that it's not easy to make a right decision and of course I was really sad every time my decision lead me to a failure. However, every times I got a good a right decision, I was really excited. So don't let the fear stop you from where you want to go. Try to make decision even when you may be failed, because at least you can learn something from it. But if you are stopped because of the fear, you will never get anything.
