Quotes Meaning

"Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.”  By Robert F. Kennedy. This quote has a very powerful meaning to me as well as to others. There's been many occasions where I have encountered this quote and it always stands out to me. 

To me this quote means that only those who aren't afraid to fail at something (no matter what it may be) will have a better chance to achieve their objective. To be more clear; if you are afraid to fail and you don't do something for that reason, you simply won't achieve anything! However, if you just do it; you'll accomplish much more than what you thought evens though you failed. (I don't know if that made sense). You could also become more dexterous about something you failed in if you keep practicing and trying. 

I believe the reason for so many of us to be afraid of failure is due to being berated by others. Sometimes we're afraid to do something because we're scared of what others might think or say but in reality thats just a part of life. They will always talk, no matter if its about something exceptional or terrible you did. So, why be afraid of failure? 

This quote can relate to my life because when I was younger, I would be afraid of failure. For example, when I was being taught how to ride a bike, I didn't didn't want to try it on my own due to not wanting to fail. But little did I know, that by failing I was also achieveing many things.

Blog #6: Reflection

In class I liked how we were given the time in class to complete our essay. It was beneficial to us because in occasions we may not have time or material to do it at home. Sometimes that's the main reason why homework doesn't get done. 

Sometimes, in class I would face challenges that I had to overcome. Some of them were not being able to use my cellphone in class. I'm sure many of my classmates faced that same challenge. But I know it was for the best because it could've been a huge detriment for our education. We would've been berated if we decided to take them out! 

I am indeed euphoric with the grade I will be receiving. I honestly feel I did my best and always made sure homework/ classwork was turned in on time. I also made sure I wasn't left behind and studied for when tests were given. 

My participation in class is much better than any other class. In here, I actually get involved in class discussions and answer questions. I would say I'm getting better at it! I come to class everyday because I know that if I'm absent just one day, I'll miss tons of work. 

In Q2, we should continue to do blogs and vocabulary. It will get us more dexterous on our writing and speaking. We should also continue to watch violin music videos. I feel that once in a while its good to take a break off all that work. I will prepare for success by continuingon paying attention in class, being on time and turing in work.
