Right not i really have nothing in my mind, well i kinda do but they have bugged us so much in school already about it that when i think about is it's just stressful because sometimes you don't know what exactly to do with your life and people already expect from you what you want to do with your life. what i'm thinking about is college, well i'm not a very smart kid so i will be attending a community college. Now that they make us think what we wanna do with our life's it's kinda difficult because you could like something and like in 5 months from now i may not even like it so i really have to choose wisely what i want to study. I guess that's pretty much it i don't have much to talk about right now. Usually by t he end of the day i'm just thinking that i wanna go home to do my homework and do what i wanna do after. Now i just have to watch the time go by slowly, one thing i noticed is that if you pay attention to the time the time the time will pass by very slow. but if you just let it be and let it pass on it's own its going to go by really quick.

One cool event that happens every Thursday nights are drag races over in Irwindale ca. its 1/8 of a mile. All types of cars show up there import/muscle/domestic/super cars. All types, you just line them up and the fastest to the finish line is the winner. I've been wanting to take my car but since i only have my permit and im still 16 i cant go into the track to race. I at least have to be 21 and over to go race but other than that i cant
Right now what im thinking of is either to do my car e85 or to either put a manual transmission. I'm pretty lost because the cost on both is practically the same, but i feel that driving manual will be way more fun than driving a automatic. But then again in the city driving manual is more of a hassle because of the traffic and how over populated Huntington Park is. Not only that but i feel that ill get more speeding tickets with a manual transmission because you're basically controlling the car, you are the one directing a 350hp machine that goes from 0 to 60 in 4.0 sec flat. Not only do i wanna do that but i also want to weld my differential to make it sorta of a LSD diff so it can burn rubber with both tires not just one side.

" The Six Attitudes of High Achievers"
John R. Noe
"The Six Attitudes of High Achievers"
High Achievers........
Make no small plans
- When making plans for your life you need to thing big, thinking big is the key to everything. If you think average you're just going to be a average person, thinking big is what's going to get you up there and make you unique. Its going to make you be your own person and make you stronger everyday. Have you ever heard that saying that says "go big or go home" ? think about that when you want to make a plan and you feel that you can so better than average. You always have to think outside the box,be creative and when doing something always do it big.
"Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's and probably them self's may not be realized."
Do what they fear
Are Willing to risk failure
- Doing something that they fear says a lot about someone, means to achieve your fears. If you are not willing to do what you fear then your fear are in control of our life's not us. High achiever will not surrender against there fears. They will keep trying until they overcome them. Many common fear people have are rejection, illness, poverty, death or even loss of loved ones and etc. For example people are afraid that they will get a illness like a few month ago a lot of peoples fear was getting Ebola. That illness caused many people to stay home and not go out of the country, or state. Many of those people surrendered because they didn't overcome the fear and they preferred to stay at home when you could have wear some protection.
"Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvelously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sky. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones." - Thich Nhat Hanh
Are willing to prepare
- Those who prepare before they do anything else are always the ones to succeed in life the others that don't decide to prepare they fall behind in whatever their doing for example when your going to take a test you have to study and be prepared for any questions that there might be in the quiz or test because if you don't prepare for a test or quiz you can actually fail that test so its better for you to be prepared and you'll always succeed.
"If you're walking down the right path and you're willing to keep walking, eventually you'll make progress." Barack Obama
- Risking a failure isn't easy at all it's either have it all or lose it all, the only problem is that you don't know if you're going to have it all or not. Most people don't like taking risk for the simple reason that they feel comfortable of what they already have. Also because it probably took them a really long time to get where they're right now and they don't wanna risk it all because it took them a really long time to get there and don't wanna lose it so easy. But then there's other people that even tho it took them a really long time to get to where they're at they risk it all because they're not afraid of losing. Its because they know they have the skill of achieving things quick and if they really want something they will accomplish what they want doesn't matter what gets in their way. There is always going to be more type of people out there but these two types of people are the most common one's their is.
“Don't listen to the malicious comments of those friends who, never taking any risks themselves, can only see other people's failures.”
― Paulo Coelho
― Paulo Coelho
Are Teachable
- I think that being teachable is a god thing because you're teaching other people out there skills that they will later on need in their life. Not only that but you're also increasing their knowledge which is good because that's something that every person needs. I guess that being a teacher can be a really nice job because your're teaching kids how to grow up, pass things from their ancestors, You know a lot of interesting things that will catch a lot of kids attention and make them smarter. Most people love their job for the same reason that they feel that they're doing good.I know a couple of teachers that they love their job and wouldn't change it for the world because of the same reason.
What I believe is that all clear-minded people should remain two things throughout their lifetimes: Curious and teachable.”
― Roger Ebert
Have heart
- High achievers always have heart, why do i say that because achieving something isn't easy. When people achieve stuff that they've been working hard it's a amazing feeling for the reason that having a good heart is one of the best feelings. Having heart can mean a lot of things, for example when saying that someone has a good heart means that they are very kind and nice to people. Not only that but also that for example lets say that you're having a bad day and here come a very happy person with a good heart and makes you smile and makes your day up that also another example of having a good heart. Another example of having a good heart is if a person has too much of something and see's that someone is missing what this person has he kindly gives it too them because it came out of his good heart. Not so people could say that he has a good heart but for the reason that he has a good heart and feel good of himself.
"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart." Helen Keller
Final Reflection
- From all the 6 attitudes the one that i'm going to consider the most is "are willing to risk failure." The reason why i'm always going to remember that one is because if we don't wanna take the risk of failing we will never succeed. We will never succeed because you don't come out that little comfort spot you continue to live in. Not only that but if you never try to do better you will never succeed, sure you will fail a couple of times but that's part of the whole process. I personally think that all of these 6 attitudes will forever be stuck with me and try to use them to achieve all my goals that i have plan for myself.
