Importance of Setting Goals
Some of the benefits that you gain when you write down your goals are that you won't ever forget any of your goals, not even your smallest goals will be forgotten. Another important thing that happens when you set goals is that you can keep track and see the progress you make towards accomplishing them. Also, when you keep track of goals you've met, you can start to write new ones down. Some of the drawbacks you make have if you don't write your goals down in a journal are that you won't remember all of your goals if you have a lot, which you should have. Another draw back that you may encounter if you don't write your goals down is that you are less likely to meet your goals if you don't see them everyday, that's why it is important to read and add on to your goals in your goals journal. When you write in a journal you can also see the progress you make towards completing your goals.

Freelance Post
Yesterday I came to Student Led Conference with my mom and niece. I just explained to my mom about the assignments that I have been completing for my 8 classes. Today at 10am I'm going to go to the MPR to donate blood for the Blood Drive. I hope that I don't pass out when they draw the blood. Lately been feeling kinda sick. Need to get my hair trimmed, it's getting to long. I still haven;t found my USB, I think that maybe my brothers wife stole it. Seems like the kind of thing that crazy lady would do. Today we come out early due to SLC yesterday, hope that my brothers wife isn't at my house when I get home.

6 Rules to Make People Like You
Rule 1: Become genuinely interested in other people.
To be interested in other people is to ask about them, try to be their friends. When you talk to people and they could see that you are really alert when you talk to them and you pay really good attention, people will like you as a person. An example of this could be when you are in class and the teacher is talking, if you focus all of your attention towards them and make eye contact, they will see that you are only focused on them making you seem like a great student as you give all your attention to them.
Rule 2: Smile
Smiling can make a person seem more friendly which is a good way to make people like you. Smiling also can give off a caring feeling towards others. an example of this can be in a picture. When you have a photo taken of yourself and you smile it makes you look like a good person which is whom people want to associate themselves with.
Rule 3: Remember Names
Remembering people's name is a good way to let them know that you actually care and aren't wasting anyone's time. An example could be if you are in college and the professors could remember your name. Professors in college have hundreds of students and if the professor is able to remember your name, it will make you feel special. Another reason why remembering people's name will make you a more likable person is because it makes you seem responsible. When you are applying for a job and you can't remember your employer's name or your bosses/co-workers, you will appear careless which could get you fired.
Rule 4: Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves.
Good listening is a great skill to develop when you are trying to make people like you. When you are a good listener and encourage people to talk about themselves people really start to get to like you because a good listener makes people feel like they are getting their point out. people tend to like to talk about themselves so when you encourage it, they will feel like you really care and they will really admire that about you. An example of this can be when you are in a relationship. Some couples tend to fight because they don't feel like they are being listened to.

"Be a good listener... it makes the person who's speaking to you feel loved, cared for and worthy of being heard."
-Wayne Dyer
Rule 5: Talk in terms of the other man's interest.
When you want to try and make friends, it is a good idea if you talk about a topic that you know the person you are talking to is into. For example, if you are talking to someone who is into a certain game, you could talk to them about that game which would make them happy because that is a topic they enjoy talking about. This is a great way to make a person like you because if they are to see you again, they will be reminded that they have the same interest as you because that one time you talked about their favorite topic. This is a great strategy to make people like you because you two would just be talking that catches both of your attention.
Rule 6: Make other people feel important--and do it sincerely.
When you want to make people like you, you should always make people feel important because it let them know that you are a caring person and that is a great trait to make a person likeable. An example of this rule can be when you are trying to make new friends. When you talk to a person making them sound greater than you in a sincerer way, they will like you for making them sound like a great person. When a person talks about you like if you are a important person you will enjoy their presents due to it.

Freelance Post: Las Vegas Mass Mudering
3 days ago on October 1st, 2017 in Las Vegas, Nevada there was a concert Sunday night when all of a sudden a man started firing rounds into the crowd at the concert from his hotel room overlooking the location of the concert. Over 50 people were murdered that night and over 500 people were injured. This was the biggest mass shooting in American history. It is crazy to know how simply this was executed. The shooter had over 20 assault rifles in his hotel room where he was shooting from. It was determined that the shooter had been premeditating the attack because he had gotten the perfect room overlooking the area in which the concert was taking place in. I personally don't feel that safe anymore because, now the world can see how easy it is to kill many people quickly and hurt many others.

The 6 Attitudes
"The 6 Attitudes of High Achievers"
-John R. Noe
1. Make no small plans: Plan BIG
This First step to becoming an over achiever is to always have big plans and never any small ones. The bigger you plan, the better the outcome will be. When you plan small you are not reaching your potential, you are only getting the small fish in the pond. When you plan big you plan to do something with your life and have a memorable event. For example, you shouldn't have small plans to graduate high school, you should have plans to graduate from college. You shouldn't have plans to be in a club at school, you should have plans to be president of the club at school. Another reason why you should plan big is because you should always do the best you can and peak over your limit. You will never know what you can accomplish if you don't try. Even if you were to fail, it would not matter as long as you tried. The most a person can ever do is try.
"Failing to plan is planning to fail."
-Alan Lakein
I can start to apply this new attitude by writing down bigger goals in my Goals Journal in class. Another way I can start applying this new attitude is by setting higher standards for myself.
2. Do What They Fear
When you are trying to be a high achiever you have to aim high and sometimes that means trying to accomplish goal that others wouldn't even try to attempt. When you are trying to be the best at what you do, you have to sometimes do what no one else would try. An example of this is public speaking. Many people don't like to speak in public, especially in front of crowds. Yet, if you do this because you know others would hate/fear to do that it will increase the chances of you getting into a career that will make you happy. This is because public speaking is a big thing in the business life, and employers will look for that. Another example of that can be dangerous challenges, this can be in a athletic department. Such as when we watched the video of the man who broke the record of jumping out of a plane from the highest distance without a parachute.

"People fear what they don't understand"
-Bruce Lee
3. Willing to prepare
When you are a person who is ready and willing to prepare you are a person who will be a high achiever. When you want to stay one step ahead of everybody else, you prepare for it. When you want to be a successful person in life, you have to prepare for it. When you are prepared, you are demonstrating that you are ready to do whatever you have to do. An example of this can be the day before you start a new school year. A regular person wouldn't think much of it other than being disappointed that they have to return to school. While a person who is willing to prepare will already have everything they need set up in their backpack with all of their school materials and with their uniform placed out ready for the morning with their alarm clocks set up. The difference will be shown on the report card when the student who is willing to prepare gets higher grades that the student who did not prepare themselves.

" Everyone wants to win, but not everyone is willing to prepare to win."
-Bobby Knight
4. Willing to risk failure
When a person is willing to risk to fail, it doesn't mean that they are going to fail, just that they are willing to take a risk to succeed even if there is a chance of failure. An example of this can be when you are trying out for a team. If you know that there is a chance that you are not going to make it but you still try out because there is still a chance of success, that is what makes you a high achiever. Only high achievers try to succeed knowing there is a chance of failure. Taking a chance when failure is high is a really outstanding and courageous action to take because many people wouldn't take a risk like that. Everyone wants to succeed but hardly anyone wants to take a risk to fail.
"You can't succeed unless you're willing to risk failure."
-Raymond E. Feist
5. Are Teachable
When a person is teachable they are considered students, they are the ones that have the capability to learn new information and expand their intelligence. The reason that this is an attitude of a high achiever is because only those who really want to achieve and be successful in life are willing to are the ones who are open to learning new information that will expand their intelligence. An example of this can be anyone who goes to the library nowadays and picks up a book and starts reading without complaining that they don't like the book. Someone who is eager about learning new things is a person who is setting themselves up for success.
"I had an acting coach while I was doing the show and every week I could see my work improving. I really liked working on the show because I was learning new things everyday."
-Dannii Minogue
6. Have Heart
When I say "have heart" I mean it as to show a certain emotion or attitude towards a person or a situation. An example of this can be donating money. Generosity is a way to have a heart. Another example can be to be friends with someone who you see who doesn't have any. This is an example because you are choosing to help someone out so they won't feel lonely. Having heart is an attitude of a high achiever because people who are positive and like to give and make others feel better, deserve to have good things happen to them.
