The Mental Habit of Feeling Rush or Overwhelmed by Leo Babauta is a blog post that I connect to in my everyday life. In this post Babauta explains that during the holiday season many of us often become overwhelmed and rushed by everything going around us. When we feel rushed we need to collect ourselves and pause because getting worked up about the situation does nothing but make things worse. He also says not to let anxiety lead us on a chain of worry because it will not help us in the end what so ever. When feeling overwhelmed we have to sit down and collect ourselves and the current situation. Feeling anxious and overwhelmed ultimately will do nothing but waste time which is good for nobody. In the future i think we can all learn from this post because in a time of being overwhelmed and anxious, we all need to learn how to calm down and approach each situation without completely loosing it. In doing this we can all have a much more relaxing, enjoying holiday season with little worry and stress.

This article by Mitch Albom professes the fact that the election is now over and it is time for our country to come together. He explains that it does not matter if we voted for Trump or Clinton, all that matters that is our country needs to stand together as one and not divided. Obama told trump that is he succeeds we all succeed and if he fails we all fail and that is one of the truest things I have heard from this election yet. In the future I believe people in our country need to learn to come together for the greater cause of building or nation to succeed rather then to be divided and watch it fail. If our country learns to come together and put our differences aside then I believe our country will do just fine through the Trump Presidency.
"Try to look at your WEAKNESS and convert it into your strength, that's success"- Zig Ziggler11/15/2016 This quote by Zig Ziggler connects to me now and in my future in several different ways. Now I can focus on my weaknesses and what I need to work on in order to turn them into strengths. In order to do this you need hard work, time, and determination to reach your goal. In the future this quote can help me because whatever I lack or cannot do very well in the future, I need to address and take the appropriate task to better myself and turn whatever it is into one of my strengths. In the future I think that each and every one of us can learn from this quote to reach a path of success in the future.
This quote by Brian Tracy relates to my life in several different ways. The more I think about achieving and becoming successful, the harder I work to accomplish my goals such as getting good grades to get into my college of my choice either Michigan State or Central Michigan which I have already been accepted to. Working hard throughout high school to maintain my 3.7 accumulative grade point took a lot of hard work and effort to make the school choosing of where I want to go after high school a reality. So far I have been successful with my goal of keeping good grades and my hard work up. When I set my mind to do something I make it a reality because that is what I believe is the key to success and happiness in my life.
John Maxwell explained that a key part in finding success is finding your own individual purpose and what you are here for. He explains that if we can figure out these two things then we almost certainly will find ourselves on a path to success. Right now my purpose is to finish high school strong so I can go to the college of choice that I want to go to. In the future I will find my purpose by finding what I want to do with my life and what will make me happiest. By following these steps I ultimately believe I will continue on a path of success in my life.
Stress and anxiety can be a big problem for millions of people across the world every single day. Taking time off from work and setting limits may be able to significantly reduce stress by making yourself feel much more relaxed, calm and collected. Taking time off from work will create more free time to enjoy life and not stress on the little things at work. Setting limits off how much work I do in a single period of time helps reduce stress for me so I don't get overwhelmed and create more anxiety for myself. just as this article professes, we need to make time for ourselves, free time , and relaxation time so we don't have to much anxiety and stress over a job or other stressful activities. In the future I believe more and more people are going to learn for themselves the best way to cope with stress because it is something we all will counter in our lives.
http://www.helpguide.org/articles/stress/stress-management.htm I believe the top three words from the pyramid of success are Loyalty, Confidence, and resourcefulness. If you follow these three things then you are bound to reach success in almost anything you pursue to do. I believe we can all follow coach John Wooden's pyramid to success to show us we can do whatever we want with our lives we just have to strive, and put the hard work and dedication into it. Loyalty can lead me to success because loyalty to others will cause me to be promoted and go further in whatever I am doing. Confidence will also get you very far in life because it shows others that you have pride in what you are doing . Resourcefulness is a great way to get ahead on a path to success because it shows others you can complete tasks thoroughly and without little help. In the future I believe we can all continue to refer to the pyramid of success to reach whatever goals we set in life.
I believe that we can all learn something from Jim Rohns quote "either you run the day or the day runs you". This quote is very inspiring to me because it motivates me to get up every day, strive to do better, make more goals, and improve on every aspect of my life. If we all think about this for just a second you can realize that the world is ours, we can do whatever we choose, and our actions decide what we make of ourselves. This persuades me to be happy, get out there, and make a change in my life to succeed in whatever i pursue to do.
"Success depends less on strength of body than upon strength of mind and character." — Arnold Palmer9/30/2016 I strongly agree with this quote said by Arnold Palmer. Our character and mind is what keeps us going every day and without strength there success is almost impossible. If each and every one of us can set our minds to what we want to do then we are bound to accomplish it. Yes, you need physical strength but in order to be successful but the strength of the mind is just as important if not more important. In following this quote I truly believe that success can be reached if you just set your mind to whatever you want to do. This is a great quote that each and every one of us can learn something from, rest in peace to the great golfer Arnold Palmer.
This Summer was a great time for me with my friends and family. Every summer my family and I go on Vacation two times with my dads side of the family and one time with my moms side of the family up north. We have been doing this every year since I was born and has remained a tradition.I also spent time with my friends hanging out playing sports as well as went swimming in my pool. Summer is my favorite season of the year, it is always a fun relaxing time. Over the summer I also have had a job working at EOS Cafe right next to Lake Shore on Violet and Jefferson. Overall my summer 2016 was a lot of fun and a good way to head into my Senior year.
