Saturday Homecoming Dance
This Homecoming that just passed on the 10-29-16 went great. It was at Linda Marquez and it was just so great because it was my first time ever going to a dance, but it wasn't that what made it wonderful it was going with my girl that just made my night. She also looked so gorgeous  in her light pink dress and her black heels she just looked so amazing. It was first time dancing and it was special especially because it was with her. To top it off the we won homecoming king and queen. She looked so beautiful with those flowers they gave her. When we both walked out once they called our names we kissed and the crowd was screaming for us. It was a night that i will never forget 
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People


Habit 1: Be proactive
" Habit 1 is the key to unlocking all the other habits and that's why it come first. It says, "I am the captain of my life. I can choose my attitude. Im responsible for my own happiness or unhappiness. I am in the driver's seat of my destiny, not just a passenger."
reflection: This is a very important habit that applies to all of us. We must take charge of our own life. You can do what you want to desire it is all up to you whether it be your happiness or not. You have the opportunities to change your life and path way. It is all up to you how good you want it to be. Since you can change things in your life and want the best it's to you to stay consistent with it. Its your Life you can possible do whatever you want. It's your Rules on how exactly you want to live. Dont let people tell how to live life in their perspective. You have a life you have your own different mind set so everyone's different.













Habit 2: Begin with the end of mind
"Control your own destiny ur someone else will."(Jack Welch)
"When you know where you intended to end up, you know where you are now."(covey)
reflection: I believe that this is a very important habit no matter who you are. Dont let others tell you who to be or what to be. You have control of your own life and destiny and have the power to change how you want to live. 









Habit3: Put first things first
"Organize and execute around priorities."
reflection: This habit applies to everyone and there decision making. You have to make certain things your number 1, things you have to take care of or get done. You can't get or be lazy because then you'll put your task or whatever it might be to side and not be good  for you in the end. If you put the first things you got to take care of you wont have to worry about things so much. You would be a little more stress free since you have to take care of things first before you can do anything else. You can also have people as your priority. Whether it be the one you love or it can also be family. It is like your job you have to automatically put certain things first no matter what it be. Whether it be homework, chores, or loved ones it all matter because it's your priorities. Its the things that matter the most to you and you have to take care of business before anything else. 
 







Habit 4: Think win-win
"Think win-win or no deal"
Reflection: This is a important quote and should apply to everyone. WIN-WIN should be the mentality you should have no matter how hard the obstacle might be or seems. You get to win and destroy any situations that seem difficult for you or anybody else. Having this positive attitude can win you everything that you want to achieve. No one is gonna achieve anything if they have a negative mentality or attitude. All they are gonna think about how things aren't working out and complain how hard the situation or obstacle is. Failure is gonna be in their eyes not focusing on winning. You cant accomplish anything or very very little with that negativity. So you have to stay focused and think positive and you will be guaranteed to have a higher chance achieving your goals.  

Habit 5: Seek first to understand, then to be understood 
"Diagnose before you prescribe"
reflection: This is a great habit to actually understand. You have to listen to understand the whole situation whatever it may be. Listen before you talk to understand the other person's perspective. They might be saying and meaning something else but if you listen carefully and let them explain themselves it would change the way on them, It doesn't hurt to listen to the other person and the way they think and feel because we are all different so we tend to say things differently but does not change the meaning or how we feel. Listening is the key to everything because it manages time and gets a better understanding on people and/or certain problems. Listening and understanding is a must to get a solution. 

Habit 6: Synergize
"The whole grain is greater than the sum of its parts (1+1=3)
reflection: This quote is very important to all people living. This quote makes people gotta think and must work together. It is very important because it not only affects you but also those around you. No matter where you are in life you're always gonna have to work with people if you like them or not. It is beneficial because it get things done faster and easier. e



Habit 7: Sharpen the saw
The Four Dimensions of self-renewal: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/Emotional 
reflection: This quote is very important because it has a very good meaning. Everyone says that only you knows you the best. Well this is very true but do you really understand and know yourself. We have four different dimensions which are Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Social/Emotional. This is a must you have to understand what this is. Then you really should understand who you are and makes you realize how you can live life differently.
 









Reflection: All of these Habits are important and you should always keep and practice them. It not only impacts you and makes you into a better person but also those around you. Your actions they change also the way you think you will be more knowledgeable and wise when you choose to make a decisions. When you keep on doing it you will get to know yourself better. You will get to know yourself better physically, mentally, spiritually, and socially/emotionally.  Only you know yourself the best and you must get to know yourself the best. When your at your best those around you will be at there best too. Its because of your vibe and the way you do things. It will help you work together with others. When you work together you get things faster you become proactive and start thinking positive and always want to be number 1. The you will seeing results having to put your priorities first and keep doing what your doing in life being a self made person. Being the best as possible reaching your fullest potential.

Ecs
I feel like this class is a class that really impacts students especially with this incredible teacher. It only helps just learning about computer parts that will be very effective in the future if we want to buy or even build our own computer, but also programs and tools to help us in our everyday lives not just in school but also at home. Mr Haymore really tries to express ourselves and wants to make goals for ourselves and i feel this is what students need to really find themselves and  make a plan for themselves because they might just be lost on what to do. With achieving goals it not only betters you but other around you. This is an amazing class with a great teacher not only it helps us academically but in the real life to. We cant really thank this teacher enough

Six Ways to Make People Like you. if you want people to like you.....

Rule 1: Become genuinely interested in other people.
1)"Do this and you will be welcome anywhere"
2) "You can make more friends in 2 months by becoming interested in other people than you in  two years by trying to get other people interested in you"
3)Ask questions to other people, questions that they would enjoy answering"
reflection: "Becoming genuinely interested in other people" is the first way to make people like you. You have to be interested in other people and communicate with them to really see if they interest you and becoming their friends. Ask questions that you may think they may interested in certain topics. If you have somethings in common they have a higher chance of becoming your friend. Its about communication and see what their interests are and what are yours making more friends is always good.










Rule 2: Smile
1)"Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says,"I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you"
2)"You dont feel like smiling? Then force yourself to smile"
3)"It creates happiness in the home,fosters goodwill in a business, and is the countersign (witness or indication) of friends  
reflection: Smiling can show a lot in a person. If you start smiling you will get this positive vibe. Even in the worst situation no matter how tough it is you should keep on smiling. Of you tend to smile a lot you will become a bit happier because you got that big o grin on your face. If your happy then you are surely be able to impact those around you. Your positive vibe will rub on and people will always know you as that smiling and good person. Especially  your family and friends if they see that you are happy and always smiling no matter what you are doing or where you want to go they will support you because you are happy. 
 







Rule 3: Remember Names 
1) "A man's name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in any language"
2) "If you dont remember names, you are headed for trouble"
Reflection: Remembering names is very important. If you remember someone's name or they remember  yours it shows something about you or that person. It shows that you care and listen to them. It shows that little connection that you will have. If you remember there names it can benefit you whether it be school or work. Its also nice if that person is very nice and kind you will most likely like them and would want to be there friends. If you dont remember there names it can also be bad. If they had hurt you, you would want to remember there names if they did. So it is always good to remember names no matter who it is.  


Rule 4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves
1)"IF you aspire to be a good conversationalist, be an attentive listener."
2)"Remember that the man you are talking to is a hundred times  more interested in himself and his wants and his problems than he is in you and your problems.
Reflection: Being a good listener is a very good thing no matter who it is. It shows that you are active and paying attention. It also gets you to see other peoples perspectives and points of views. 










Rule 5: Talk in terms of the other man's interest
"The royal road to a man's heat is to talk to him about the things he treasures most"
Reflection: This rule is very important when it comes to meeting a new person or a friend. If you know what the interest of other it would greatly benefit you and the other person. You will get a better understanding of what they like. They will surely grow fond of you. Talking about the other favorite interest will make them like you and you will be creating more friends because you understand what they like and you or whoever else's will have a special bond because of all the things you have in common. Its also a good thing to learn about others interest because it also shows that you listen and that you care. 

Rule 6: Make the other person feel important- and do it sincerely
"The desire to be important is the deepest urge in human nature."(John Dewey) helping people feel important and appreciated works magic"
Reflection:This has to be on of the most important rule.This makes a lot of difference whether or not you're gonna make a friend or whether there gonna stick around. Everyone wants to feel important no matter who it is. This is in human nature where like everyone wants it no one wants to feel useless. If you make someone feel important they are most likely going to stick around because it also means that you care about them. If you make whoever it is feel important it creates a bond a greater bond than anybody else's because of how special you make them feel. People should really appreciate it a lot because not everyone can have that same feeling. It does mean a lot when it comes to making someone feel important.
 










 Final Reflection


These "six ways to make people like you" is a very good and important set full of ways. These rules isn't just a way to meet them or present yourself and leave never seeing them again. These are six ways on how to make friends not just meeting anyone. These are very important to anyone really. All these rules apply to you and makes the other feel a certain way. whether it just be listening, getting involved in their interest, or just smiling it can really change someones mood and attitude. It makes the other person that you care about them. That will show that you grow fond of them. You will make the other person feel important and they will surely see that and they will impact your life for being there for you  and being a good friend  because you made them feel important. When you do and you keep on applying these rules to certain people it will create a really good friendship and make a group of people close and make this unbreakable bond because your friendship has became so strong since you applied all these rules.
