This video meant that you can do anything if you motivate yourself to do it. Even though you will have to go the extra mile, and will have to push yourself harder than the others, you will make it. The difference between people who try and people who don't is that people who try are committed. They don't give in. They learn to be better leaders and to accelerate as much as you can because nobody is perfect." Dream Stealers" try to keep you from doing something because of their opinion. Is it fair to have someone say, "You cant do this because of my standards." Doesn't it make you angry when someone you trust doubts you. Even though they say that you must persevere. You must hold to dreams because dreams may go.
ReplyDeleteToday we watched a video about never letting someone make you do something that you don't want to do with your life. It is up you to decide what you want to do. You choose your life.Don't keep standing in the shadow.It your life to choose.Again don't let others decide your life.

This video shows that if you believe, you can achieve anything. This an excellent example of a young, african american male who has traveled a long and hard journey to become as successful as he is today. If you try your absolute best at any and everything, you will make it to your goals. With the right amount of motivation., courage, and prosperity there is no telling what you will be able to surpass. This video is living proof that if you set your mind to something and try your hardest and never give in to what others say or do, the long road ahead will be worth the while. As an African American male you will experience many trials and tribulations due to your skin color and who you are. If you strive to obtain your goals with the right amount motivation, will, and knowledge that you learned your whole life, you WILL accomplish any feat.

This video meant to me that everyone has a dream. Whether you can or cant do it is your choice.You have to be commited and empowered to reach your dream. Even though "Dream Stealers" say you cant do it, you can. You have to persevere and go the extra mile. If the soccer team runs 3 laps, you run five. If karate ends at 4, practice at home until 6. You arent going to get better if you stay where you are. Do more laps than the last time. Do more push ups than the last time. You also have to practice because practice makes progress and progress make a leader. You will be even closer to reaching your goal. People will try to put you down but you just have to get back up and keep going. Who knows where you will end up if you give in. You have to keep moving forward no matter what obstacle is in your way.

this morning we watched a video about a man who did not give up on his dream to vist exotic places he acompleshed his dream to do so and his friend kevin gave up on his dream to become a pro football player and he just played videogames all day and did nothing with his life so he went to his house to talk to him about his self but what i think is that you should give up on their dream to become what they want to be. It could inpact on your future so my advice never give up on your dream. RJ
ReplyDeleteThe video that was shown has taught me alot. It showed me that even though people will put you down, you should always do waht you want. Although you won't be able to acheive your goal just by saying you will do it, you also need to put in the work and effort to do so. Doing what you want may not work out, however there always other options. In the end don't let people get the best of you, and give it your best shot until the end.

What I saw in the video was a black standing in front of a crowd. He was talking about everybody has a dream and sometimes people try to still it. The final scene showed a young man accomplishing his dream. He was the first African American valedictorian in over a decade at Booker T Washington High School.
ReplyDeleteToday we watched a a video about a man who struggled to achieve his goals. He perservered through those struggles and acomplished his goal of getting a job where he could travel to exotic places. AJ
